Centre a radWindow to the browser

[Paul Gallen]

Hi,

I have 3 radPanes (with RadSplitters) each with their ContentURL set to 3 different web pages. When I show a modal radWindow in any of the three panes, the window is centred to the window. My requirements are to centre these radWindows to the browser not to the individual web pages. Is this achievable??

I have tried using set_openerElement, but to no avail

 

function openWin(aspxname,winName) {

                    var oWnd = radopen(aspxname, winName);

                    oWnd.setSize(650, 500);

 

                    oWnd.set_openerElementID(oWnd.BrowserWindow.parent.ID)

                  

                    oWnd.add_close(OnClientClose);

                }

 

Thanks

Hello Paul,

RadWindows exist only on the page where they were created and you cannot directly center them (by using the client-side center() method) in your scenario.

What I can suggest in your case is:

1. Open the RadWindows on the topmost page (where your splitter is), e.g. have the RadWindowManager /RadWindows declared there and access them from the content pages.
   OR
2. To implement your custom logic that would calculate the position of the window against the viewport. Then you can use RadWindow's client-side API and move the window to the desired position by using the moveTo() method.

Thanks Georgi .

May I request this feature in future versions of the Telerik control?

Hi Paul,

I am afraid this is not possible to implement in a property because such feature would not be able to provide consistent result. For example if the IFRAME in which the RadWindow resides, does not occupy the center of the viewport, you will not be able to show the window properly - it can exist in the page in which it is created only.
