This usefulness of a control like this will be beyind measure.   However, in my opinion the current UI is not intuitive.  Even as a technical person I am having trouble figuring out how the ANDs and ORs relate to each and which things are being grouped together.  If i can't figure it out, there is no way my users will be able to figure it out.

I know its still early, but here is some general feedback:

1) It would be more intuitive if the filter clauses where structured like a familiar SQL where clause.  Currently, the first thing is the filter is a AND or OR.  That doesn't make intuitive sense.  What am I ANDing together?  Nothing yet.  

What if I only need 1 filter?  (OrderID = 123). 

The first thing in the filter should be an actual filter (ie.  OrderID=123), THEN have the ability to add AND or OR concatenators.

2) The drop down context menu on the "+" button needs some clarification.  After trial and error, I was able to figure out that the first option adds a filter clause to the chain and the second option adds a AND/OR concatenator.  But it is not intuitive. 

3) Add some type of grouping visual indicator.  I suggest the familiar parantheses as people understand that this groups things together and they can tell which items are being concatenated.   I think you could also accomplisht this with indentation, which appears to be the direction you are headed, but currently, it seems like you can only indent one direction.

Consider this difference:

WHERE
(OrderID > 100 AND OrderID < 200)
OR
(Country = "France")

versus:

WHERE
(OrderID  > 100 AND (OrderID < 200 OR Country = "France"))

There is a difference, but I couldn't figure out how to represent these using the UI.

4) Consider adding a text representation of the resulting WHERE clause so the user can see what they aare building to confirm it.

I am using RAdGrid two level hierarchy and userContols as Edit and Insert forms.

After creating entry in MasterTable I would like to open insert form for child record automaticly.

I would like to plot two bars, of the same serie, with the same x-axis value next to each other instead of them overlapping each other, as can be seen in: http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/featuresstrictmode.html ( the two blue bars at x-ax = 3)

I cant find how, any help?

Hi,

I am using a radtreeview with a sqldatasource. The radtree looks like below:

NODE1
    Subnode1
    Subnode2
NODE2
    Subnode3
    Subnode4

I also have 4 radgrids on the page whose visibility is toggled on/off based on check/uncheck of the nodes. I achieved this by calling a javascript function on "OnClientNodeChecking". So far so good.

I also want to toggle the radgrids based on NODE1/NODE2 check/uncheck, i.e. if I uncheck NODE1, the two grids(associated with subnode1/2) should be hidden. So, I set the "CheckChildNodes" property to "True" which checks/unchecks the child nodes. I assumed that this would trigger the "OnClientNodeChecking" event for all the childs nodes. However, it doesn't. I am not sure if it is desgin issue or if I am missing something. Either way, I would appreciate if anyone can help me resolve this.

Thank you,
Sri

I have a grid which I export to Excel, but the Excel file contains a button for each of the groupings.  It also contains extra rows for a command item template.  I have as yet been unable to remove these before export.  Can anyone offer a suggestion as to how I can remove these?  A screen shot is attached.

Hi..
I have a AjaxPanel with textboxes.
I'm trying to update the values programmatically in code-behind in C#

like this..  BUTTON_CLICK()

 

this.txtNAME.Text = this.txtFIRSTNAME.Text +  "  :" + this.txtLASTNAME    ;

the value of TEXt changes in the DEBUG window but the values does not change on the screen. How do I force the change ?

thanks again!!!

 

Greetings,

I have tried following the example:
http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet/grid/radgrid-telerik.webcontrols.radgrid-itemcreated_ev.html

I'm using an asp:ImageButton within a RadGrid GridTemplateColumn and I set the CommandArgument property of the ImageButton in the code-behind (either during OnLoad or OnItemCreated of the RadGrid). However, in the Click/Command event handlers of the button, the CommandArgument value has been reverted to String.Empty.

I've stepped through the process and the ImageButton.CommandArgument does get set (to a guid) correctly, but alas this value is gone when I need it.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I am using the file explorer with a single path and would like to show the sub folders without showing the root folder, Is it possible to do this?
If not, is it possible to lock only the root folder from uploading files?

I want to use the control to allow users to manage add/remove files in the subfolders of the root folder only. I don't want to allow them to upload individual files into the root folder.

Hi

I have a TabStrip where I have attached a custom attribute so I can uniquely identify each tab. I also have a ContextMenu attached to the TabStrip.

I can find the text of the tab (args.get_targetElement().innerHTML) that menu was accessed from but is there any way I can find out the custom attributes of the tab in question?

Thanks
