We are considering adding a feature to our application that provides a thumbnail preview of any documents that might be contained within a specific directory. These documents could be any one of several common types including pdf, rtf, doc, etc. I was wondering what you would suggest would be a good approach. Do you have a thumbnail control of some sort that might work for this purpose? We were considering using the slider control to facilitate browsing.

Thanks in advance,
Tom

I'm working with another developer to satisfy their busienss requirement of enabling/disabling editing on a row-by-row basis based on a given criteria...  For simplicity sake, let's say they can edit Even row #'s and Odd row #'s are displayed but not editable...

Our grid has a standard GridEditCommandColumn named "EditCommandColumn"... We also have an additional GridButtonColumn named "DeleteCommand" and its CommandName is set to "Delete"...  There is also a ClientEvents setting for OnRowDblClick to call a JavaScript function which performs the following:


What I've done thus far is to use the following code to access the ImageButton in the GridEditCommandColumn and set it's Visible property to False...  Same basic approach I'm assuming I would apply for the Delete column though I haven't made it that far yet...


So this works to hide the button and prevent the user from clicking on it, but it leaves the client-side OnRowDblClick still functional...

I was hoping to find something far more elegant / canned & ready-to-use... ie. a row-level setting of some sort - such as a property on the GridDataItem for "AllowEdit" or something similar... perhaps both "AllowEdit" and "AllowDelete"... but I see nothing of the sort...

What is the "right" way to handle this case? Or am I heading in the right direction and just need a few more tweaks.... 

I'm thinking my option here for dealing with the client-side double-click handler would be to do as described above and additionally catch the ItemCommand event and test for the same conditions and conditionally Cancel the ItemCommand event?

Hi,

Is it possible to add a footer to a GridBoundColumn without turning it into an item template.

i want to add a button to the footer of a radGrid.  I'd like to have it under the right most column, but don't want to have to convert the contents of the column to an item template, is this possible, and if so, how do I do it?

The code below is a snippet from the grid I'd like to add the footer to.  If possible I'd like the button to appear under the FirstName column.

<telerik:RadGrid ID="grvLandlords" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataSourceID="SqlLandlord" GridLines="None"

Skin="Office2007" OnSelectedIndexChanged="grvLandlords_SelectedIndexChanged" OnItemDataBound="grvLandlords_ItemDataBound" >

<MasterTableView ShowFooter="true" DataKeyNames="LandlordID" DataSourceID="SqlLandlord">

<Columns>

<telerik:GridButtonColumn CommandName="Select" Text="Select" UniqueName="Select">

</telerik:GridButtonColumn>

<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="LandlordID" DataType="System.Int32" HeaderText="LandlordID"

ReadOnly="True" SortExpression="LandlordID" UniqueName="LandlordID" Visible="false">

</telerik:GridBoundColumn>

<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Title" HeaderText="Title" SortExpression="Title"

UniqueName="Title">

</telerik:GridBoundColumn>

<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="FirstName" HeaderText="First Name" SortExpression="FirstName"

UniqueName="FirstName">

</telerik:GridBoundColumn>

</Columns>

</MasterTableView>

</telerik:RadGrid>

Thanks,

Hi

In RadGrid, when you group and the group continues on the next page, RadGrid automatically displays this:
"(Showing 7 of 65 items. Group continues on the next page.)"

Is there a way to ALWAYS show this when grouping? Even when group does not continue on next page? ie:
"(7 items)"

Hi,

Hello,

I have a radmenu and one of the item templates uses radcombobox.

How do I make the radcombobox to show its dropdown over the menu ?

Hello,

I have a treeview in a div. The div has fixed width and height. The treeview has fixed width and height smaller the div of course.

The node text is longer which gives me scroll bars (this is ok).

The attached screen shot shows selected node in IE8, IE8 standard mode. You can see the vertical scrollbar, then the div border and another div border.

Is there a way the text will not show over my divs on the right ?

Latest release of ASP.NET ajax controls.

I was not sure which forum this is most appropriate in so I cross-posted this here and to the Calendar forum. 
We are implementing a Month/Year picker (http://www.telerik.com/community/code-library/aspnet-ajax/calendar/month-year-picker.aspx#944510) in the FilterTemplate of a RadGrid. I have copied the code from the grid below.  I have not been able to get the javascript to get a reference to the pickers ClientID - the compiler complains it does not know the TechManListPicker control.

Thanks

I created an Extension method that will set the page break of a RadTabStrip for visible tabs only and then split the rows in half.  I have a situation where some of the tabs will be visible during certain page views. 

so in your code for the page_load, you would just call:

If you have any refactorings  or improvements for this snippet, I'd be interested to see it.
Enjoy!

I am having trouble with the EmptyMessage parameter being viewable in firefox.  This is what is happening:

I have a page that has a radtextbox as shown

When I view the page in IE everything is good in that the empty message appears, and when I set focus to the textbox the message goes away and when the textbox loses focus the message comes back.  The problem I am seeing is when viewing this same page in firefox.  The page loads just fine with the empty message in the text box and it goes away when I set focus to the text box.  But when focus is lost in the text box without typing anything in, the empty message does not reappear.

I was looking at a demo on the telerik site:
http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/input/examples/radtextbox/firstlook/defaultcs.aspx

and experienced the same thing.  I am running firefox 3.0 if that helps.

Do I need to add anything else to the radtextbox to get this to work in firefox too?

Thanks
