StandAlone Menu(Click through OR Dynamic Resize)

Hi,

I have a problem with a standalone menu on my Silverlight dashboard.

I have four silverlight controls loading at a time, so attaching the MainMenu to a single one would be counter-productive.

I've been attempting to create a main-menu at the top of my html page.

Problem 1:
When I use "windowless=true" and "PluginBackground=Transparent" to display the Silverlight Menu over my HTML Code, I cannot seem to click through to the background data. I've searched for solutions to this, and have come up with nothing.
From what I understand, basic Silverlight doesn't not provide any form of "Click Through Transparent" options.

Do you possibly have a solution for this?

Problem 2:
Barring the fact that Click Through doesn't work and never will, I would like to attempt to "Dynamically Resize Silverlight Control to fit the contents".
Unfortunately I've come up with nothing that would allow me to return the actual scrolling height of an open menu to the Javascript and resize the Silverlight Control Object.

Does anyone have any solution to this?

Unable to fetch the Grid's control values in Edit mode within UpdateCommand

Hello,

I am using the following code to generate a grid for displaying and editing some data.
Unfortunately I am not able to get the value of the raddatepicker & the checkbox control in code behind to update the associated fields in the DB.

My aspx is as follows:
=================

<telerik:RadGrid ID="grdSites" runat="server" AllowAutomaticDeletes="false"

AutoGenerateColumns="False"  AllowMultiRowSelection="false"

CssClass="MyRadGrid" AllowAutomaticUpdates="false"> <MasterTableView

 <telerik:GridEditCommandColumn ButtonType="LinkButton">

 </telerik:GridEditCommandColumn> </Columns>

 <EditFormSettings EditFormType="Template"> <FormTemplate>

 <table id="Table2" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="1" width="100%"

border="0" rules="none"  style="border-collapse: collapse; background:

white;"> <tr class="EditFormHeader"> <td colspan="2"

style="font-size: small"> Subscription Details

 </ClientSettings> <PagerStyle Mode="NextPrevAndNumeric" />

 </telerik:RadGrid>

Code behind:
===========

Private Sub grdSites_UpdateCommand(ByVal source As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridCommandEventArgs) Handles grdSites.UpdateCommand

Try

Dim banquetSitId As Integer = CType(grdSites.MasterTableView.DataKeyValues(e.Item.ItemIndex).Values(0), Integer)

'Dim rdp As RadDatePicker

Dim expireDate As DateTime = Nothing

Dim isActive As Boolean

'If e.CommandName = RadGrid.UpdateCommandName Then

' If TypeOf (e.Item) Is GridEditFormItem Then

' Dim item As GridEditFormItem = DirectCast(e.Item, GridEditFormItem)

' If DirectCast(item.FindControl("rdpExpireDate"), Telerik.Web.UI.RadDatePicker).SelectedDate.HasValue Then

' expireDate = CType(item.FindControl("rdpExpireDate"), Telerik.Web.UI.RadDatePicker).SelectedDate.Value

' End If

'End If

If TypeOf e.Item Is GridEditFormItem AndAlso e.Item.IsInEditMode AndAlso Not e.Item.OwnerTableView.IsItemInserted Then

'Dim editItem As GridEditFormItem = DirectCast(e.Item, GridEditFormItem)

'Dim item As GridDataItem = DirectCast(editItem.ParentItem, GridDataItem)

'Dim datepick As RadDatePicker = DirectCast(editItem.FindControl("rdpExpireDate"), RadDatePicker)

Dim editedItem As GridEditableItem = DirectCast(e.Item, GridEditableItem)

Dim datepick As RadDatePicker = DirectCast(editedItem.FindControl("rdpExpireDate"), RadDatePicker)

expireDate = datepick.SelectedDate.Value

End If

If Not e.Item.FindControl("rdpExpireDate") Is Nothing Then

If CType(e.Item.FindControl("rdpExpireDate"), Telerik.Web.UI.RadDatePicker).SelectedDate.HasValue Then

expireDate = CType(e.Item.FindControl("rdpExpireDate"), Telerik.Web.UI.RadDatePicker).SelectedDate.Value

End If

If Not e.Item.FindControl("chkIsActive") Is Nothing Then

isActive = CType(e.Item.FindControl("chkIsActive"), CheckBox).Checked

End If

BanquetController.UpdateBanquetSite(banquetSitId, expireDate, isActive)

lblMessage.Text = Localization.GetString(

"SubscribeSuccess.Text", Me.LocalResourceFile)

grdSites.EditIndexes.Clear()

BindBanquetSites()

Catch ex As Exception

lblMessage.Text = ex.Message

End Try

End Sub

In the above code "datepick.SelectedDate.Value" returns null for me.
I have tried out a number of other combinations(currently commented out) as well, all returning null for me, though the control is coming up fine.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks
Tariq

month view multiday appointments

Hello,

I have noticed very weird things happening with my RadSheduler control set up in a Sharepoint web part. Please see the attached image. There are two things going on:
1. The multiday appointments Task 1 and Task 6 are not really shown as spanning.
2. The begin and end times for the multiday appointments are wrong. Task 1 is supposed to end on October 17, not the 10th, and Task 6 is supposed to end on October 27, and not the 24th.

The Sheduler is programmatically created, so all the settings and databinding occur on the server. The datasource is xml converted into a Dataset. I tried attaching to the AppointmentDatabound event, and the e.Appoimntment information is completely correct, so the datasource is interpreted properly. But when it comes to rendering, the appointment span is cut short for some reason. This is a pretty critical issue, and I'm about out of ideas of what else to try to figure out what's going on.

Have you ever encountered anything like this? Is there maybe a setting that I need to apply? Please provide any thoughts or help - they will be greately appreciated.

'Multiple controls with the same ID' Error with SPRadGrid Web Part

I have SharePoint 2010. I have installed web parts for SharePoint using the Q2 2010 Telerik AJAX Controls for SharePoint 2010 msi install file. However, when I try using the web part to a page, I get the following error:

Multiple controls with the same ID 'hlSPUserControl' were found. FindControl requires that controls have unique IDs.

Using the browser, I can add and configure the web part, but if I try to use it (for ex. sort a column) or edit the web part again, I invariably get the error. Also, if I try adding the web part in SharePoint Designer, I get an "Error Rendering Control" error (not sure if this is normal or not).

I tried reparing the install - same result.

What could be going on? Is there a way I can set the control ID so I can avoid the error?

IE8 Unsafe Website Error

A few hours ago, we started receiving a full-screen red error when browsing our website:

This website has been reported as unsafe

Malicious software threat: This site contains links to viruses or other software programs that can reveal personal information stored or typed on your computer to malicious persons.

In assessing the damage, I went through and made a list of all pages that got the error. The only pages that get the error on our website are ones that contain a Telerik ComboBox control. We have pages containing other Telerik controls that do not get this error. Has anyone else seen this problem? This just started today and our customers are freaking out.

We are using version 2010.2.713.35.

[Solved] Resize grid on browser resize.

Hi,
I'm changing the scroll area height in the onGridCreated event as in the http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/grdchangescrollheightatruntime.html, it works fine.

I want to do the same thing when the user resizes the browser window. What's the easiest way to do it? Also, I'm using a pager. How can I know its height in run-time?

Intercepting Grid queries to work with FireBird

Hello.

Hopefully I dont come off sounding like a fool :)

I am using Visual Studio 2010, with demo version of telerik asp.net to see if I can make this work with FireBird DB

Basically what I want to do is have the grid work with firebird for huge datasets.

With Paging ASP is creating the limit queries to return only a subsset of data for that particular page in the grid honoring the current sorted colums, etc.

How can I do this in firebird ?

I am hoping I can use an event to generate the select sql based on the current columns chosen to sort by and get back the page the client is requesting etc..

I hope this makes sense what I am asking :)

Color Picker CSS

Hi.

I have a Color picker wrapped in a jquerry dialog and when i choose a color i would like the color pop up to expand the dialog (instead of just overflowing) or be able to reposition it somewhere on the page. Could anybody by any chance provide me with the name of the class tag that i need to modify? i have not been able to find it on my own.

Thanks!

LoadRTFContent exception

I'm getting the below exception when loading an RTF file from a stream.
All fonts used on the existing system (that works - not using telerik though) have been copied to the dev platform in the hope of eliminating some suspects.
If you wish I can post the RTF.
Any help appreciated.
