[Solved] Customized XAML doesn't work in RTB

[Vishal]

I inserted a namespace xmlns:x=http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml in the XAML of Rad document and used x:Name="Test" attribute in some of the elements. But after I load this customized XAML inside Rad RTB, it strips off the namespace as well as the x:name attributes from all the places. Is there any way I can retain my custom changes?

Hello Vishal,

Custom properties cannot be persisted with XamlFormatProvider, as it is only concerned with preserving the content of the document and the properties of the document elements in RadDocument's model.
The only way to persist custom data is using annotations (like Bookmarks) in the document. Could you elaborate a little on your scenario and the custom attributes you wish to persist, so that we can suggest a different approach.

Best wishes,

Hi Iva

Thanks for reply.

I want to place multiple table in document and want to give identifier to each table. So that I should be able to identify table by using its identifier. i.e. <telerik:table x:Name="TestTable"></telerik:table>


Thanks
Vishal

Hello Vishal,

In your scenario, you can use Bookmarks and place a bookmark in the first cell of each table. By default, bookmarks are not shown unless you set the ShowBookmarks property of RadDocument to True.
In that way, you will not only be able to identify each table, but will also have convenient methods to navigate to each Bookmark and respectively, the table it is in.

All the best,
