DataFilter as RadRibbonDropDownButton Contet error

Hi,

I'd like to place a DataFilter control inside a RadRibbonDropDownButton o RadRibbonSplitButton, but i'm getting an unhandled exception the first time i want to add a filter in the DataFilter control.

Hello Vlad,

I'm sorry but this exceptions does not halt my visual studio. It's a "javascript" error (code 404) and I cannot debug it. Most times, the applications gets frozen, clock cursor, and it stops responding user actions.

I'm trying to tell what I'm doing. Of course, appliction has Ribbon Bar. This RibbonBar, at this moment, has only one Tab. In this tab I have several RibbonGroups. In one of this RibbonGroups I have a RibbonDropDownButton with a RadDataFilter as Content. This DataFilter has no source set, I'm providing it with a ItemProperties collection. When running the application, firs time I click on the DropDownButton the popup opens and appears the RadDataFilter, if I click on the DataFilter's "plus" button the dropdown inmediately closes, the second time I clck on the dropdownbutton it appears the problem, applications gets frozen (it seems is trying ti open the DropDown popup) and waiting cursors appears. Sometimes I get the javascript error I commented before.

Hope this helps, if any new, I will post it here.

Hi Daní,

To avoid closing of the DropDown you need to set KeepOpen property to True for the RadRibbonSplitButton. About javascript error and frozen application problems you have described we tried to reproduce them but everything works fine on our end. I am attaching a sample project for reference. Please, feel free to modify it if we have missed something or your scenario is different.

Sincerely yours,

Thanks Yordanka, it was really useful. I've replicated your code, really not different than mine, but now it works... I don't know what was doing wrong, but clearly I was doing something wrong.

A little question about an strange issue on the DataFilter. I cannot Bind the ItemsProperties property in xaml file, I can bind it by code.

Hi Daní,

We have not implemented this yet. You can vote for this feature at the following link:

I hope this helps.
