Test Forum Description

I have a grid with a nestedViewTemplate that contains a asp:panel with a number of things in it.

The rows in my grid has alternating backColors, white, gray, white, gray, and so on...

What I would like, is to change the backcolor of my panel in the nestedViewTemplate, so that it matches the expanded row that it "lives in".

Anyone?

I just downloaded the 2009 Q1 release of the Telerik products. I installed the RAD Controls for ASP..NET AJAX and Telerik Reports. Only the Reports menu item appears on the Telerik menu in Visual Studio (2008). I uninstalled everything (including the 2008 Q3 releases) and reinstalled them again. Same thing, only the Reports menu item appears. Anyone have any ideas?

Does telerik provide a widget framework or any control to make a widget. By widget I am meaning portable piece of code, like a graph control which can be attached to google home page.....

Hi All,

I'm investigating Silverlight for the next revision of the product.  I'm generally quite happy with the ASP.NET Ajax controls.  One of the biggest pain points though is handling (near) real-time updates of data in RadGrid / GridView.  Right now (using the ASP.NET Ajax controls), we rebind on a manual refresh, initiated by the user, as the rebind loses the expanded detail view(s), the row selection, etc.  A quick examination by a colleague indicates this remains true with the GridView control in Silverlight.

The behavior we want is similar to the Windows Explorer or the Task Manager - where you can select one or more items, change the sort order, etc., and not lose either while at the same time objects (files, process, tasks, etc.) can come and go and the view updates in (near) real-time.

Anyone have any suggestions for achieving this goal?  Of course a built-in option would be best... I'd rather not keep a second, hidden grid from which I could use JS to update only individual cells, assuming that is even possible.  This approach sounds like it may slow things down even more.

I'll cross-post this to the Silverlight GridView forum as well.

Thank you,
Tim

Hi,
I know that RibbonBar by Russell Mason is not your product bu i don't know where to go and maybe you have tested this functionality, here is the problem: when I set AccessKey of LargeRibbonBar it just doesn't work :), i do the same thing with tabs and asp.net buttons and its working fine, do you have any idea what can i do wrong?

I am trying to move my web apps into AJAX. I use server controls only for the initial page rendering of the DOM elements and then make web-service calls (using PageMethods or WCF) to populate or manipulate any grids, forms or data that exist in the page.

I recently purchased the AJAX RADControls since read that it is one of the best AJAX libraries available.

I added some of the Telerik controls to replace plain HTML tags (such as drop-down lists, inputs, etc.) but I am dissappointed in how difficult it is to find these controls in the DOM in order to manipulate them (especially when they are embedded within other ASP.Net server controls).

I am confused why I can't simply declare the Client IDs of my Telerik controls?
I am using my Telerik controls as 100% client-side controls so why am I not able to define my own Client IDs?

To find a Telerik Control I have to resort to such calls as:

var combo = $find("<%= RadComboBox1.ClientID %>"); var item = combo.findItemByText(text);

 (By the way, this code above will NOT run when you place your script code in a separate JS file which is a best practice that I prefer to follow.)

Does this limitation exist for a good reason?
Or is this limitation there because these are server controls that are being migrated to AJAX?
Is there a future version of the AJAX controls that will allow me to define my own Client IDs?

Please let me know if I misunderstood the architecture of these controls.

Thanks in advance for any explanation you may offer on this matter.

Hi,
i have a java applet on rad window, and if i place one more window above it - then window structure (title/border) are hidden below applet, while window content is above. Tried to play with zindex and overlay - but no luck. Any hints how to fix this?

Thanks

Hi,
I use ContextMenu control with RadGrid - menu appears on right-click on any row of grid. I need to change text of one menu item depending on grid item that was clicked. Is there a way to do this, on client side probably? I suppose this could be achieved by changing text of specific item, showing/hiding items (or adding/removing). So, there are two questions - how to manipulate the menu, and how to find out which row of grid was right-clicked.
I would be most grateful  for any help.

Hi,

I sometimes encounter the situation that the height of a radsplitter is not calculated correctly.

This happens in a very specific situation:
In the project I'm working on we're using a home brewed sort of tabs. When a tab is switched to for the first time the contents of that tab is rendered. The radsplitter that is giving me problems is in one such tabs.
All is well if I switch to such a tab and I wait long enough for the height of the radsplitter to be calculated correctly (which isn't very long at all). The problem arises when I switch to such a tab and the switch to another tab very quickly, causing radsplitter to render "in the background", if you catch my drift. Somehow something goes wrong with the calculation of the height of the radsplitter, resulting in unnecessary scrollbars and such.

Now, I would be greatly helped if there exists a command in the client-side api which forces the height of a radsplitter to be recalculated.
I haven't found such a function, but have I missed it? If so please tell me, and sorry for not looking properly.
If there is already another thread addressing this functionality please direct me to it, and sorry for creating a new thread about it although I did look for such a thread first but couldn't find it. (There are so many threads about radsplitters and height.)

Regards,

Mink
