Default Pane to Open

[Adam Thompson]

Hi,

I have a question about the following example.

http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/splitter/examples/default/defaultcs.aspx

Is it possable to default the contacts pane to be open on pageload? If so, how do I do it. I have tried a couple of things and can't get it to work.

thanks,

-Adam

Hi Adam,

Yes, it is possible to set default expanded pane ID by using the ExpandedPaneId property of the RadSlidingZone and set it to the ClientID of the desired RadSlidingPane.


Kind regards,

I had the same problem and couldn't find any examples on how to it with c#.  I am working with master pages so this was key.  The code below worked for me.

RadSlidingPane

 

toolboxpane = (RadSlidingPane)Page.Master.FindControl("ToolBox");

 

 

 

RadSlidingZone

 

toolboxzone = (RadSlidingZone)Page.Master.FindControl("LeftSide");

 

 

toolboxzone.DockedPaneId =

"ToolBox";

Hello Adisa,

As far as I see, you are using a MasterPage and the MasterPage is an INaming Container which means that it changes the actual IDs of the controls. In order to get the desired result you should use the ClientID property as shown below:

toolboxzone.DockedPaneId = toolboxpane.ClientID

All the best,
