Hi, I'm new to working with RadDocks and have some questions (probably pretty basic ones).

My RadDocks are dynamically generated by a Button_Click event, and then recreated in the Page_Init event on each PostBack.  In RadDock1_SaveDockLayout I have:
CurrentDockStates = RadDockLayout1.GetRegisteredDocksState();

In Page_Init I call the ApplyState method of each RadDock and pass it the appropriate element in CurrentDockStates.  Then I add the RadDocks to RadDockLayout1's Controls.

Everything seems to work pretty well, but I'm not sure I'm understanding why it works.

(1) If I look at the info in CurrentDockStates, it's the info I saved at the end of the previous PostBack (as it should be, since that's when I saved it).  But I've moved the RadDock since then. (That is, it's been manually dragged from one DockZone to another by the client.)  And yet, it loads (correctly) in the position I moved it to.  So I guess there's some hidden code built into the RadDock controls that updates their position.  But if so, why is it necessary to call ApplyState at all?  I mean, if the control has more up to date info already than the info I'm passing to ApplyState.

(2) The example on dynamically generated RadDocks also had some code in RadDockLayout1_LoadDockLayout to update the Positions and Indices of the RadDocks. But even if I leave this code out, my RadDocks seem to still be showing up in the right place on PostBack.  Is the LoadDockLayout code only necessary if I were loading their positions from a file (e.g. a database)?  And why would that be necessary when I'm already calling ApplyState?

(3) The one thing that isn't working right is closing the RadDocks.  I can close them, but they reappear as soon as I have a PostBack.  How can I fix this?

Thanks in advance for answering these questions

Hi,

Have a couple questions:

1. If dock.AutoPostback = true, can individual commands be AutoPostback = false?

2. If dock.AutoPostback = false, can individual commands be AutoPostback = true?

3. Is there anything else that could be causing a DockCommand to do a postback even though it is set to AutoPostback = false?

Thanks.

Hello! I am a new user of the controls, and I am doing some testing to learn how to use them for a new webappl. I would like to use the panelbar as a menu, but I notice that this control makes the input cursor flicker. I checked the taskmanager, and Iexplore.exe had between 6-10% varying cpu usage on my pc. If I remove the control, things are back to normal. Also pressing the keyboard escape button stops this behaviour. I can also see this behavour by going to the demos an placing the cursor in the skin dropdown.
For instance:
http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/panelbar/examples/functionality/firstlook/defaultcs.aspx

This is tested with Internet explorer 8.

Is there something that I can do to fix this?

Thx. for answers!

Hi,

I have a dynamically generated page which generates amongst other things, a list of color picker controls, which allows the user to select a colour for a line on a chart.  The page is displayed within a RadPane control in a RadSplitter.  The issue is that if the list of items is long, any colour pickers which are situated off the visible area of the screen remain invisible when the screen is scrolled down to view them.  The only thing that sometimes gets them to appear is resizing the page, but this is not 100% reliable and is not a good solution to the problem.  I do not have a working sample as this is being generated by data dynamically loaded from a database.

If anyone can offer any suggestions why this may happen and offer a potential fix, I would be very grateful.

Thanks in advance.

Hi

Can you show me an example about how to get the item in rotator when mouse over?  I know I need a javascript function to handle the mouseover event but I don't know how to write the handler to get the item which has the mouse over.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I'd like to set the font style of a selected row at client side. How can I do that?

Thnx

I am having a problem with the editor looking like crap in internet explorer 8 (including compatibility view)...please look at the following link. It is stretched more than 100% of the page. No matter what container or skin I use. The only thing I can see is there is an element style set to 100% on a bunch of the nested tables in the editor like this

<table id="dnn_ctr378_EditHTML_teContent_teContentWrapper" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="table-layout: auto; width: 100%; height: 560px;">

You can see a screenshot here

Has anyone else seen this? Is there a workaround? I am trying the editor out and this would be a deal breaker.

Thanks in Advance

Hello,

I'd like to drag an item from the RadFileExplorer.Grid into other RadGrid. The Grid_RowDrop event of RadFileExplorer should be fired and update the target RadGrid.
I have added a server-side event to the RadFileExplorer.Grid and also client side events:
          
But it had no effect. I've tried the  same with RadGrid control and it worked:
RadGrid1.RowDrop += new GridDragDropEventHandler(Grid_RowDrop);
So far I have no idea.

Kind regards,
Stefan

Coming from the Windows Forms world, there is one thing I find really difficult: The impedance mismatch between css and Telerik layout controls. My lack of css expertise makes it almost impossible to get started... It would be nice to have a range of layout samples without any content goo. Just to get you started. The controls are otherwise simple to use.
