How do you set the SplitterPosition?

How do you set the SplitterPosition for the 

RadSplitContainer?

Actuall, let me add a little more to the question.

I want to have a 2 pane split container. The left container I want to be a treeview that spans all rows of the grid element. The Right hand container I want to have multiple rows and colums to deal with some controls.

I didn't have any luck with pointing the left radpanelgroup to column 0 and the right radpanelgroup to column 1...the split container always remains in the same cell. I hope I am explaining this well............

Thanks!

Hello Michael,

You shouldn't use this property - it is set automatically by the docking control depending on where is the SplitContainer at the specified moment. As I am not sure what do you want to do, could you please provide some code or detailed description? If I understand correct you are trying to use the SplitContainer as a grid. This is not supported. You can achieve similar effect by using nested split containers (not the same, but similar). Here is an example:

<UserControl x:Class="SilverlightApplication.Page"
        xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/client/2007"
        xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
        xmlns:radDock="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Docking">
    <Grid x:Name="rootVisual">
        <radDock:RadDocking>
            <radDock:RadSplitContainer Orientation="Horizontal">
                <radDock:RadPaneGroup>
                    <radDock:RadPane Header="Group1">
                        <TextBlock TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="Tree View comes here..." />
                    </radDock:RadPane>
                </radDock:RadPaneGroup>
                <radDock:RadSplitContainer Orientation="Vertical">
                    <radDock:RadPaneGroup>
                        <radDock:RadPane Header="Group2">
                            <TextBlock TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="Row 1" />
                        </radDock:RadPane>
                    </radDock:RadPaneGroup>
                    <radDock:RadPaneGroup>
                        <radDock:RadPane Header="Group3">
                            <TextBlock TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="Row 2" />
                        </radDock:RadPane>
                    </radDock:RadPaneGroup>
                    <radDock:RadPaneGroup>
                        <radDock:RadPane Header="Group4">
                            <TextBlock TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="Row 3" />
                        </radDock:RadPane>
                    </radDock:RadPaneGroup>
                </radDock:RadSplitContainer>
            </radDock:RadSplitContainer>
        </radDock:RadDocking>
    </Grid>
</UserControl>

Hello Miroslav Nedyalkov ,

If you still monitor this thread, allow me to ask this: If I need to open new pages from the treeview or any other pane from those, where it should open, by another meaning ... should there be a Frame or Page object to hold the loaded pages, if so how is this achievable?

Best regards
Waleed

Hello Miroslav Nedyalkov,

I want to implement the page navigation in my new SL application and I read in many forms a strong recommendation to follow MS-SL3 approach, so I decided to start implementing that ....

and my question is this in this post; I understood that the implementation require another area (radpane) to hold the loaded pages, is this correct ... if so can the loaded page have a transition effects .... and how close is this to MS-SL3 ?

I hope you got my point !!

Best regards,
Waleed
