Looking for a sample for custom command on RadDock

Does anybody know where I might find a sample of how to add a customer RadDock Command button with something like a tooltip help box?

Basically we have different Docks on a page, and want to add a small help button that if the user clicks it will open a nice looking help "window" next to the button. It will have to be able to handle dynamically understanding where the edge of the screen is because sometimes the dock will be on the left side, sometimes on the right.

I am not asking for you to create this, was just hoping you might have a suggestion, or a sample you can point me to.

Thank you in advance.

[Solved] Menu hides dropdown list items

Hi
I have a problem were clicking on a dropdown the list of items goes behind the menu and therefore hides one or two items in the list.
Is there a way of preventing this behaviour or tell RadMenu not to stay on top? I am using IE8 if problem is browser related.
Many Thanks

Changing default bullets

I need to change the default bullets (round) to squarebullets which were supplied to me by my Content Manager. I added a new listclass and it works fine if I apply that class to any giving content. But if Iclick the bullet button in the wizard bar, a round bullet is added to the squareone I inserted. How do I go about changing the round bullets to the onesprocured to me so that they are added without having to apply a css class.?

Thanks,

CSS Sprites in Grid

Hi,

I would like to use sprites in my grid to help it load faster. I have had a look at the previous topics but no one seems to be able to answer the question properly.

If I add a button column to my grid how do I pick out my own image from a sprite. I do not want to use the new, edit or delete columns, I want to use my own columns which I've added myself. I've seen people mention sprite buttons but this isn't an option in the drop down.

I have also read the articles but they dont talk about using sprites in user generated columns only the new.edit, delete ones.

Can anyone help?

Invisible buttons when using Skin on a page with DIVs.

I tried dropping a toolbar in a page that makes heavy use of DIVs.

If the toolbar is skinned, the buttons are invisible. However, when you move the mouse across them, they become visible. Hovering off hides them again.

If the default skin is used, then it works fine.

The toolbar also works fine if I drop it in a normal page, so I'm guessing that there is a Z-index issue at work.

Any suggestions?

Docks with built in skin

I am having a problem with some of the built in skins and the RadDock.

It appears that when I update certain controls with RadAjax, specifically content in RadDocks the background color is not correct for some skins. I have uploaded a sample so you can see what I am talking about: YouTube link

You will first see the page as it is when loaded, then the OnClick event of the RadTreeView on the left changes the text within the RadDock. The RadDOck is as follows:

    
                    <telerik:RadDock ID="dockHelp" runat="server" Title="Help" EnableRoundedCorners="true"> 
        
                        <ContentTemplate> 
        
                            <h2><asp:Literal ID="helpTitle" runat="server" /></h2> 
        
                            <p><asp:Literal ID="helpContent" runat="server" /></p> 
        
                        </ContentTemplate> 
        
                    </telerik:RadDock>

and the OnClick():

    
            protected void treeAdmin_NodeClick(object sender, RadTreeNodeEventArgs e) 
        
                    { 
        
                        UpdateHelp(); 
        
                    } 
        
                    protected void UpdateHelp() 
        
                    { 
        
                        if (treeAdmin.SelectedNode != null) 
        
                        { 
        
                            switch (treeAdmin.SelectedNode.Text) 
        
                            { 
        
                                case "System Utilities": 
        
                                    helpTitle.Text = treeAdmin.SelectedNode.Text; 
        
                                    helpContent.Text = help_systemutilities; 
        
                                    break; 
        
                                case "Locked Documents": 
        
                                    helpTitle.Text = treeAdmin.SelectedNode.Text; 
        
                                    break; 
        
                                case "Users and Groups": 
        
                                    helpTitle.Text = treeAdmin.SelectedNode.Text; 
        
                                    break; 
        
                                case "Groups": 
        
                                    helpTitle.Text = treeAdmin.SelectedNode.Text; 
        
                                    break; 
        
                                case "Users": 
        
                                    helpTitle.Text = treeAdmin.SelectedNode.Text; 
        
                                    break; 
        
                                case "Filing System": 
        
                                    helpTitle.Text = treeAdmin.SelectedNode.Text; 
        
                                    break; 
        
                                case "Deparments": 
        
                                    helpTitle.Text = treeAdmin.SelectedNode.Text; 
        
                                    break; 
        
                                case "Workflows": 
        
                                    helpTitle.Text = treeAdmin.SelectedNode.Text; 
        
                                    break; 
        
                                case "User Defined Lists": 
        
                                    helpTitle.Text = treeAdmin.SelectedNode.Text; 
        
                                    break; 
        
                                default: 
        
                                    helpTitle.Text = "Managing Your System"; 
        
                                    helpContent.Text = help_general; 
        
                                    break; 
        
                            } 
        
                        } 
        
                        else 
        
                        { 
        
                            helpTitle.Text = "Managing Your System"; 
        
                            helpContent.Text = help_general; 
        
                        } 
        
                    }

And just to ensure I give you all of the details I am using the following RadAjaxManagerProxy and RadAjaxLoadingPanel:

    
            <telerik:RadAjaxManagerProxy ID="RadAjaxManagerProxy1" runat="server"> 
        
                    <AjaxSettings> 
        
                        <telerik:AjaxSetting AjaxControlID="treeAdmin"> 
        
                            <UpdatedControls> 
        
                                <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="helpTitle" LoadingPanelID="RadAjaxLoadingPanel1" /> 
        
                                <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="helpContent" LoadingPanelID="RadAjaxLoadingPanel1" /> 
        
                            </UpdatedControls> 
        
                        </telerik:AjaxSetting> 
        
                    </AjaxSettings> 
        
                </telerik:RadAjaxManagerProxy> 
        
                <telerik:RadAjaxLoadingPanel ID="RadAjaxLoadingPanel1" runat="server"> 
        
                </telerik:RadAjaxLoadingPanel>

This issue occurs anytime I update any controls with Ajax that are inside a RadDock and the Skin is set to a skin that has a different background than what the Dock has for that skin. (Examples: Black, Hay)

I have tried to simply update the entire RadDock with the AjaxManager, but that throws and error:

Telerik.Web.UI.RadDockZone can contain only controls of type Telerik.Web.UI.RadDock

Your help is appreciated.

Unicode symbols revisited

Hi,
I am trying to insert some "higher" Unicode symbols in DB.

For instance the omega symbol becomes "O" in DB record.
As other thread advise I did set my SQL Server columns to varchar, nvarchar, char but to no avail.
I see that the "Save to DB" demo on your site is working correctly with the Omega symbol.

What could be the problem you think?

Regards,
Marc

ListView, UserControl, RadWindow

I've created a userControl that has an imagebutton. Attached to that is a RadWindow via the OpenerElementID of the imagebutton. That popups a window with the required aspx page (in this case ImageSelector.aspx). When that form is closed it returns the path of the image selected. And then updates the image in the imagebutton.

All works great. Except when I had another usercontrol. Then when I click on the imagebutton of the second control does not fire.

When I check out the rendered HTML i see two identical usercontrl rendering including the same openerElementID and JavaScript callback function.

I think what I need is a method to supply the 'calling' control id to the imageselector.aspx so that it can return it in the arguments coming back.

(note I've used both ASP.NET ImageButton and HTML img element and have the same problem).

Thanks.

Dynamically loaded controls not working properly

Hi, I have searched this forum exhaustively for a solution without any luck so posting here is my last resort :D

My solution is actually quite complex but I have went ahead and created a really simple web application to demonstrate my issue (also helped isolating the problem), you can download it from here http://www.towfeek.se/telerik_test.zip

Anyhow the problem lies within loading controls which themselves contains rad controls in them. The basic problem is that when I try to load a custom user control which contains a RadSplitter control into a RadPane control I get the strangest javascript errors, why is that?

Furthermore, the RadSplitter in the custom UC has a RadSplitBar which generates more javascript errors when you try to drag it. This is supposibly an error based on the first one.

If I move the markup code from the custom user control directly into the RadPane that I tried to load it into it works fine, the issue seems to lie within loading it dynamically.

Please help me ;-)
