Is there a way to allow copying from the RadDataGrid for the purpose of pasting into another application (Excel, text document, etc.?)

Would it be possible to copy an entire row or would it be restricted to the cell only?

THe docs say this

 



I can add a HeaderItemTemplate to get what I need, but how do I add a HeaderTemplate and keep the Item Template controls?

Relatively new to XAML and using these controls..

I am trying to use the Tab control in a simar way to a previous post, with icon, label, close button to try and dynamically add, remove tabs etc

It seems when the MAUI desktop window is sized smaller, the tabs are scrollable/slidable, but its not obvious to the user, so want to show some kind of indicator (similar to what the toolbar does) maybe this a feature to add?

Feature: have scrollable buttons to scroll the Header Items like how the toolbar works

Hi..
I created a simple custom Telerik Maui Combox control. With a similiar style as the Telerik documentation:  [Telerik Maui Controls Combobox Styling][1]


  [1]: https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/maui/controls/combobox/styling

    <Style TargetType="telerik:RadButton" x:Key="DropDownButtonStyle">
        <Setter Property="FontSize" Value="14"/>
        <Setter Property="HorizontalOptions" Value="Center"/>
        <Setter Property="VerticalOptions" Value="Center"/>
        <Setter Property="WidthRequest" Value="24"/>
        <Setter Property="HeightRequest" Value="24"/>
        <Setter Property="Padding" Value="0"/>
        <Setter Property="BackgroundColor" Value="Transparent"/>             
        <Setter Property="TextColor" Value="Blue"/>
        <Setter Property="Padding" Value="{OnPlatform Android='8, 2, 4, 2', iOS='4, 2, 12, 2', MacCatalyst='4, 0, 8, 0', WinUI='6, 0, 10, 0'}"/>
    </Style>

I just want to change the dropdown button to use a custom Icon. So I added:

    <Setter Property="BackgroundImage" Value="downarrow.png">

When I add the custom control to a view. It works!  But on initial load - the dropdown icon does not appear. Even after binding.  If I start selecting drop downs and perform other actions, the icons appear!  Why doesn't the icon appear on load/init?  It does finally appear.  How can I force it to show?  Here's the code for the control.

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
    <ContentView
        x:Class="ABC.CustomControls.CustomDropdown"
        xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dotnet/2021/maui"

                    <Setter Property="VerticalOptions" Value="Center" />
                    <Setter Property="WidthRequest" Value="15" />

                    <Setter Property="Padding" Value="0" />
                    <Setter Property="Margin" Value="0,0,10,0" />
                   <Setter Property="BackgroundImage" Value="arrow_down_1.png"/>
                    <Setter Property="BackgroundColor" Value="Transparent" />
                    <Setter Property="TextColor" Value="Transparent" />
                    <!--<Setter Property="Padding" Value="{OnPlatform Android='8, 2, 4, 2', iOS='4, 2, 12, 2', MacCatalyst='4, 0, 8, 0', WinUI='-20, 0, 0, 0'}" />-->

I use the control like this:  Why doesn't my dropdown icon show when loaded?

                                                           SelectedItem="{Binding Mapping.List, Mode=TwoWay}"
                                                           DisplayMemberPath="Name">
                                                     </controls:CustomDropdown>

Hi,

Since migrating to MAUI .NET8 GA 8.0.3 (and Telerik 6.5) - on iOS the RadListView keeps repeatedly triggering the defined LoadOnDemand command to get more items even though list has not been scrolled by user (and there are still plenty of items off screen / bottom of list has not been reached).

I also refer to this previous post which describes how we are using the RadListView  - Grouped mode and based on advice using <Grid RowDefinitions="Auto" ...> wrapped around items to ensure items with multiple heights are rendered correctly : 
https://www.telerik.com/forums/telerik-radlistview-failing-to-render-grouped-list-items-correctly-on-ios-maui-net7

For example we have RadListView where 10 items are loaded initially - and then we load additional sets of 10 items each time from API when the LoadOnDemand command is triggered : 

- On iOS .NET8 MAUI - even when list is not even scrolled by user it & there are still plenty of items off screen it just keeps triggering the LoadOnDemand command every few seconds to ask for more items.

- On Android .NET8 MAUI, and the previous .NET7 MAUI releases (both Android/iOS) - we were not seeing this behaviour.

Note that (as per recommended implementation in docs) we have LoadOnDemandMode set to 'Automatic', IsLoadOnDemandEnabled to 'True' and a ListViewUserCommand of id = 'LoadOnDemand' defined under the Commands property.

Can please advise when a fix can be provided for this.

thanks

Niall

Hello,

I'm looking for a control for .net maui for cross-platform desktop development that lets you resize the different sections of your user interface like the GridSplitter control does in WinUI.

Does one exist?

I need to implement an indent for the group headers based on level to better show the hierarchy. Is there anything built-in for this or a recommended method? The only thing I can see to do would be to create a converter to read the level of the GroupHeader and set the margin property of it based on that value.

I have tried the Entry control (RadEntry) this seems to be single line text

I have tried the RadRichTextEditor, this is only html, does this have a plain text mode?

I have tried RadDataForm with DataFormMultiLineEditor which has multi line text but cant seem to get a text selection.

Is there no a multi line text box that we can use in MAUI?
I have tried the standard Editor but the Text Selection seems odd and cannot figure that out?

This seems like an obvious control to have in the suite? Any ideas?

Hi,

I updated VS to the last version and now everytime i add a datagrid to the Xaml it crashes everything. In a past project i could add all the datagrids i wanted no problem, but now even in a new Maui project with only a MainPage i can't even just putting a <telerik:RadDataGrid and pressing / to close the tag because it crashes.

I guess this could be more a visual studio problem, but it's there a work around?

I'm trying the 6.5 trial controls in a MAUI project on net 8.0.

 

Thanks

 

EDIT: Reinstalled VS and repair it after, it works now. Admin can close the question
