Hi,

who is responsible for the localization of the RadEditor (RadEditorDialogs) resources?
They look very "machine translated" :)

Examples: Extension is Translated to Verlangerung. (Verlängerung is correct spelled)
But in German Verlängerung means something like lengthening or extension in the mann of "extension of a period".
File - Extension is Datei Erweiterung

Further there are other things like Akte (for file) - Akte means Record and not File which is Datei in German.

There are no Umlauts which does not only look bad - it changes the meaning of words.
--Seldom there are Umlauts like in Höhe (height) gültige (sometimes used - means valid)
Drucken Sie "OK" Löschung zu bestätigen.
First of all - there are words missing - this is like
Press OK delete confirm - instead of Press OK to confirm delete.
And Drucken (no Umlauts) means print and not press (push) which is Drücken (Umlaut).
So the correct sentence would be:
Drücken Sie "OK" um das Löschen zu bestätigen.
Or simply:
Drücken Sie OK zum Bestätigen (Press OK to confirm).

Also other words "sound strange" - no one would say Bildnis to an Image.
This some kind of poetic like in "The picture of Dorian Gray".
For image you would use Bild in German.

And last not least there are sentences which make absolutely no sense like:
Bitte versorgt eine gultige Akte.
Versorgt (versorgen) means to supply sb. with something.
The sentence is like
Please supply Peter (with food).
Where Peter is "valid File" and with food is missing :)
The simplest translation would be
Bitte verwenden Sie eine gültige Datei. - Pleas use a valid file.

My favorites:
Bitte versorgt eine Akte, zu laden.
Pleas supply (plural form in German) a File, to load.
Doppelpunktzeiger - colon pointer :)


And last not least - the translation is not consistent:
Once you find: Tabellenassisten (table assistant) - which is correct.
Then there is: Tabellerand (missing N Tabellen....- table border)
And these missing characters sound like missing 3rd person S in english.

By the way - table is sometimes translated with Tisch (which means desk / board / bench).

So my question - is there a better one?
Does the thing change often? (So if I translate mine for Q1xxx - it's not working with Q2xxx).

To be precise about my intention - RadEditor is great tool - not some crappy thing.
For a "nasty tool" such a translation would be OK.
But so the user gets a real great tool that "speaks" very bad.

And that's something like a pretty woman - speaking "the language of the gutter".

Now i have the radWindowManager in the masterpage, and i can access this from the contentpage. But i can not access this windowmanager from the open window.

Hope someone can help me with this problem

Hi

I have just been attempting to create an upload form which uses the RadProgressManager / RadProgressArea to indicate the progress of the upload. Having got this working perfectly on my local machine, I have uploaded to our test server.

On the server if I attempt to upload a file, once submit is clicked the page simply hangs and the upload progress is not displayed. The status bar in my browser (firefox) says "sending request", after around 5 minutes the RadProgressArea kicks in and the upload is completed as expected.

My starting point was your demo, I took that code and added a method to LooongMethodWhichUpdatesTheProgressContext in order to save the file once the for loop and thread.sleep have been executed.

Any help on this would be much appreciated.

Hello,

 

I have a splitter control with 2 panes separated by a vertical split bar.  Is there a way to let each pane have its own vertical scrollbar?

 

Thanks!

Hi,

the style for .RadUpload .ruFakeInput has defined a padding Left/Right/Top with 4 pixels - and a bottom with 0px.
This bottom setting makes characters with descenders (I hope this word is correct -- I mean charaters like gpqj and so on), look bad because there is something like a "cut".
When I remove this padding-bottom - it looks OK in IE8 - and it also looks OK in FF 3.0.

You can see this also in your samples - especially with "long paths" (wide input) it looks really bad.

Regards

Hi All

Finally got things finished, and starting to smarten things up with ajax. My first problem is that every control on a panel shows the loading image, rather than just the panel.

I assume you will know what is going on, if not I can post my actual arrangement of controls.

I have a Grid. When I click in a cell, I get the value and change the backcolor of the cell.
But when I click in a another cell the backcolor of the old cell should change to the old color. But I don't now how. I tried following code.

 

If Not Session("old_cell") Is Nothing Then

 

 

 

 

 

Dim _tmp_grid_cell As GridTableCell

 

_tmp_grid_cell =

DirectCast(DirectCast(Session("old_cell"), System.Object), Telerik.Web.UI.GridTableCell)

 

_tmp_grid_cell.BackColor = Drawing.Color.Empty

 

End If

 

 

 

 

Session(

"old_cell") = DirectCast(DirectCast(sender.parent, System.Object), Telerik.Web.UI.GridTableCell)

 

 


'Change color of new cell

 

 

 

DirectCast(DirectCast(sender.parent, System.Object), Telerik.Web.UI.GridTableCell).BackColor = Drawing.Color.Orange

 

Thank you for your help.

Hello

I appreciate any help with this strange problem. I have a Radgrid with a single detail table using declarative databinding on a SqlDataSource. The problem is that when I click on the Expansion/Collapse icon (+/-) without first selecting the row no records are returned when the record expands. Ok, so I have to click on the row to highlight it, then click on the Expansion/Collapse icon (+/-) and voila, data appears in the detail table.
Is this by design or am I screwing something up.

Thanks
Jimmie
