Chart & Demo improvements

Hi,

Are there any plans on improving the functionality and appearance of the Telerik charts? The focus seems to have switched to Silverlight with the ASP.Net side of things being left to stagnate somewhat.

One especially big hole in the package is for Gauges.

Also short of adding extras in I feel that much much more needs to be added to the demo section for Charts, show us how to do all kinds of custom views and tweaks. Most of the Telerik controls have great documentation and demos while the charting side of it feels to me to be something of a tacked on backwater.

Regards,

Jon

insert delete and update commands frire twice

Hi

I am new to Ajax and Telerik products in particular but I have a problem with a page I have created.

I have defined a grid such that updates and inserts are handled by the insertcommand, updatecommand methods etc.

Everything works (much to my surprise and delight) except that the methods fire twice for every update, insert and delete. I can of course handle this programatically but I would really like to know what I may have done which has caused it to happen. I suspect that it is a grid property which I have set (or not set) but I cannot find anything obvious.

My second question relates to InPlace editing. If something goes wrong with the database update, is there a slick way of reporting this back to the user. I would really like to post a message alongside the record being edited but nothing I have tried seems to work.

Many thanks

Bob

RadChart inside DataList Problem

Hi,
I'm building a survey management tool and I'm now in the phase of showing the survey result. Some of the survey questions have the matrix type, so I'm using a column radchart control within a datalist to show their results and the radchart consists of multiple series.
My aspx looks like the following

    
            <asp:DataList ID="ResultDataList" runat="server" Width="100%" > 
        
            <ItemTemplate> 
        
            <table width="100%">  
        
            <tr> 
        
            <td> 
        
            <%#Eval("Question")%> 
        
                <asp:HiddenField ID="QuestionIDField" runat="server" Value='<%#Eval("QuestionID") %>' /> 
        
            </td> 
        
            </tr> 
        
            <tr> 
        
            <td > 
        
            <telerik:RadChart ID="RadChart1" runat="server" Width="500" Height="250" ChartTitle-Visible="false" CreateImageMap="false"   DataGroupColumn="ColumnText"> 
        
                                             <PlotArea> 
        
                                    <XAxis DataLabelsColumn="OptionText"> 
        
                            </XAxis>  
        
                           </PlotArea> 
        
                                        </telerik:RadChart> 
        
            </td> 
        
            </tr> 
        
            <tr><td><hr /></td></tr> 
        
            </table> 
        
            </ItemTemplate> 
        
            </asp:DataList> 
        
            <asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource2" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:SurveyDBConnectionString %>" 
        
                        SelectCommand="select optiontext,text,isnull((select COUNT(resultid)  from SurveyResult where OptionID=SurveyOption.OptionID and ColumnID=ColumnOption.ColumnOptionID   group by OptionID ),'0') as RespondentCount from SurveyOption,ColumnOption  where  SurveyOption.QuestionID=ColumnOption.QuestionID and SurveyOption.QuestionID= @QID"> 
        
                        <SelectParameters> 
        
                            <asp:Parameter Name="QID" /> 
        
                        </SelectParameters> 
        
                    </asp:SqlDataSource>

and my code behind page looks like this:

    
             Protected Sub ResultDataList_ItemDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataListItemEventArgs) Handles ResultDataList.ItemDataBound 
        
                    If (Not e Is Nothing) Then 
        
                        Dim chart As RadChart = CType(e.Item.FindControl("RadChart1"), RadChart) 
        
                        Dim h As HiddenField = CType(e.Item.FindControl("QuestionIDField"), HiddenField) 
        
                        SqlDataSource2.SelectParameters(0).DefaultValue = h.Value 
        
                        chart.DataSource = SqlDataSource2.Select(DataSourceSelectArguments.Empty) 
        
                        chart.Legend.Appearance.GroupNameFormat = "ColumnText" 
        
                       chart.DataBind() 
        
                    End If 
        
                End Sub

my problems are the following:
1) The legend take the value from XAxis DataLabelsColumn "OptionText" and I wanna show the series value "ColumnText"
2) the labels above the sries showed the YAxis value "RespondentCount" and I wanna show series value "ColumnText"

Any help please...
Thank's in advance..

GridClientSelectColumn

We have a requirement where we DO NOT want the 'checkbox' to be checked when the user clicks on any column of the row, except for the checkbox itself. Is there any way to achieve it?

FYI: We are using 2008.2.1001.35 version of Telerik. "UseClientSelectColumnOnly" is not an option to use.

Best Regards,

Editing data in a RadPageView for a Tabstrip in a RadGrid

I have a RadGrid with a NestedViewTemplate containing a TabStrip. The TabStrip contains three RadPageViews. One of the RadPageViews will be used to view and edit the record shown in the RadGrid. I am not using inline editing on the RadGrid because the Rows contain an abbreviated view of the data, i.e. not all fields are shown ( and the client requested that a RadTabStrip be used).

I am able to display the data in the RadPageView using a simple table and binding the data to dropdownlists, textboxes, checkboxes, etc.

Does anyone know of a sample that shows how to edit data in a RadPageView for a TabStrip inside a RadGrid? I thought that an EditForm would be the way to go but it is not recognized inside the RadPageView.

NOTE: This is like the "Heirarchy with Templates" sample but being able to edit the Contact Information tab.

Thanks for any help you can provide!

Multiple RadTabs Appear to be Selected

I have a tabstrip at the top of the page. The navigate URL of each tab points to a javascript funtion. This function alters the contents of an IFRAME elsewere on the page. Also, it unselects the previously selected tab, changes it's text to be non-bold, then selects the clicked-on tab and makes the new tab bold.

The problem is that occassionally, when switching from one tab to another, the previously selected tab appears to still be selected. It's font is not bold but it is styled in a way that makes it still seem selected. Is this a known issue? Is there a workaround?

Yet Another Select Value in a ComboBox Question

I have a normal RadGrid and in that grid columns like this:

    
            <telerik:GridTemplateColumn   
        
                HeaderText="MyColumn"   
        
                UniqueName="MyColumn">  
        
                <ItemTemplate>       
        
                    <asp:Label ID="MyColumnLabel" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("MyColumn") %>'></asp:Label>       
        
                </ItemTemplate>       
        
                <EditItemTemplate> 
        
                    <telerik:RadComboBox   
        
                        ID="Domains"   
        
                        DataTextField="MyColumn"   
        
                        DataValueField="MyColumnID" 
        
                        Runat="server">  
        
                    </telerik:RadComboBox> 
        
                </EditItemTemplate>       
        
            </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

Then in the code-behind:

    
            protected void MyGrid_OnItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)  
        
            {  
        
                if ((e.Item is GridEditableItem) && e.Item.IsInEditMode)  
        
                {  
        
                    GridEditableItem gridEditableItem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;  
        
                    RadComboBox myComboBox = (RadComboBox)gridEditableItem.FindControl("MyComboBox");  
        
                    this.businessData = new BusinessData();  
        
                    // Don't worry about this. It pulls data from the business layer and databinds the ComboBox.  
        
                    TelerikHelper.BindRadComboBox(myComboBox, businessdataData.Select(), false);  
        
                }  
        
            }

Everything works fine as is. In non-edit view, the correct value is displayed and in edit view, the combobox is displayed, populated with values.

But I also want to set the selected item in the databound dropdown to the text value set in MyColumnLabel.

I must be having an off-day because I simply cannot work out how to do it :(

Can anyone enlighten me? I've been through any number of examples on the Telerik site with no luck.

Regards,
Richard
