Hello,

Please find attached all RadCalendar skins, which were embedded in the Q3 2008 RadControls version. They have been adapted to be fully compatible with the Q1 2009 release. In order to use them as non embedded skins, you should do the following:

1. copy the corresponding CSS file and images to your website, the exact location depends on your preference;
2. register the CSS file manually with a <link> tag or via an ASP.NET theme;
3. set EnableEmbeddedSkins="false" to the control, which will use the non-embedded skin;

If you are using date/time pickers, you also need the skins for RadInput:

RadInput Q3 2008 Skins

For more information about RadControls' skinning mechanism and using non-embedded skins, please refer to:

How skins work

Skin registration

Using skins in ASP.NET themes

Disabling embedded resources

An online demo, which shows how to use various RadControls with non-embedded skins is available at:

Custom skins demo

Let us know if you have any questions.

When I specify column names in the aspx file those show up with "System."... (it gets cut off because there is not enough room), but then the columns show up again matching exactly the names from my DataSource. How do I get the DataSource data to populate the MasterTableView columns.
I noticed when I do grid.DataBind() alone (not filling in the column names in aspx MasterTableView) then there are no columns in the MasterTableView object, so I can't just hide it in the codebehind.

It seems like it should be simple to just Bind the Source then hide the column I don't want to display, but it is not working like that.

Hi Team,
I created a sample application for the chart and it is not working for me.
But the same app is working in others machine.
I used static contents for the chart. Below is the code for your reference. I have nothing in the code behind file.

Do i need to register anything in GAC or any environment variable path needs to be set?...

hi,

I'm working on a RadMenu which has a horizontal layout (i.e. as shown in http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/menu_appearancelayoutofchilditems.html). Each submenu, if applicable, appears below when hovering on the root element. I have created a custom skin based off the included Web20 skin. I am only using 2 menu levels - root level and 1 submenu max each.

How can I make the sub menu appear centered (the box itself) based on the width of the root element? Can I do this with CSS or do I have to get more sophisticated with jQuery etc? I have created the submenu element as a fixed width box with a graphic layout. I.e. the submenu box always has the same width.

I have noticed all elements are "left aligned" to the root elements left edge when they appear. I know of OffsetX and OffsetY, but they only let me set a fixed value. I'd like to make this dynamic based on the individual root element's width. Is there a way to accomplish this?

I'm using the latest RadControls for ASP.NET Ajax (v 2009.2 701)

regards,
Ernst

Is it possible to draw a best fit line or curve through a set of points that have been plotted on a chart control? I have two series, one whose trend is a straight line, and one whose tren is an exponential curve. Can the RAdChart control calculate the best fit line for me? If not, does anyone know where I can find the code to calculate the line so I can plot it manually?

Thanks,

Michael

Hi all, 

I am trying to populate some text in the textbox while i click on the row of the RadGrid.
The text that I am trying to populate are from the server side process result.
I failed to populate those text even though i have set the autopostback event to both control.
Am I missing anything? Please advise.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Whether or not this is done in the style builder, I'm looking for the best way to make the following adjustments to the WebBlue button skin:
* adjust padding between text in button and button edge
* adjust font family,color,style in button
* ability to override particular button background colors

For example, we want to have less spacing between the button text and the edge of the button.  We want to use a smaller font of a different color. 

And if possible, we want some buttons (like a cancel button) have a different background color to make it stand out more.  I kind of had a solution to this, where I overrode particular styles within a div tag, and wrapped the cancel buttons in that div.  However once the new version came out this broke (as of q2 I think).

It looks like this type of adjustment cannot be made to buttons using the visual styler.  Is this correct?  If not, what are the particular styles that need to be overridden to accomplish these items?

Thx!

When you edit a RadGrid record, we can clearly see the text boxes, one over the other being displayed giving a user the option to change each column of records.  Is there an option to hide any of the text boxes?  I included a column in the text box but hid the column and when editing the record, I don't want that particular column being displayed if a user has to edit the record.  Thanks!
