Open Miximized but show only CLose button

[Henrique Duarte]

Hi,

How can I open a window miximized, with TitleBar but showing only the close button?
I tried to set InitialBehavior=Maximize and Behavior=Close, but the window opens with normal size.

Regards,

Henrique

Hi Henrique,

You need to allow both actions in the InitialBehaviors / Behaviors property for this to work:

<telerik:RadWindow VisibleOnPageLoad="true" ID="RadWindow1" runat="server"
InitialBehaviors="Close,Maximize"
Behaviors="Close, Maximize">
</telerik:RadWindow>

Hi Georgi,

How can I show only the close button on titlebar?

That is kinda weird, I can't get any combination of settings to start it maximized but to only have a close button... and that'll be kinda useful for something I'm planning to work on down the road.  I even tried using the GetRadWindow() js code from another example and then using set_behaviors to set it to just close, but that doesn't produce the desired result. :(

Is there a way to do this with javascript?

Hi,

The current implementation of RadWindow works like this - if a Behavior is not specified in the Behaviors enum, it is disabled.

What does it mean in practical terms?
If you specify Behaviors = "Close", then maximize functionality is disabled, so the window would not respect the InitialBehaviors = Maximize (or calling this from javascript for that matter).

We recognize that changing this behavior to discriminate between what is allowed to the user, and what is allowed to the developer (e.g. from code) would be a better an more flexible. This has been logged for improvement and in the future you will be able to implement the desired behavior declaratively and without hacks.

For the time being, however, in order for the maximize method to work, Maximize behavior should be explicitly enabled.

Hi Tervel,

Thanks for letting us know!  I definitely look forward to being able to use it like that in the future. 

But for now... is it possible to catch the user clicking the maximize button and to cancel the request (like if you used a button to launch script but cancelled the click response, like returning false for Maximize_onClick or something similar )?

Hi Serrin,

If I understand you correctly, you wish nothing to happen when the user clicks on the Restore button of the maximized RadWindow, am I right? If this is so, yes, it is possible to override the Restore button's functionality:

<form id="form1" runat="server">
    <telerik:RadScriptManager ID="RadScriptManager1" runat="server">
    </telerik:RadScriptManager>
    <telerik:RadWindow VisibleOnPageLoad="true" ID="RadWindow1" runat="server" InitialBehaviors="Close,Maximize"
        Behaviors="Close, Maximize">
    </telerik:RadWindow>
    <script type="text/javascript">
Telerik.Web.UI.RadWindow.prototype.oldRestore = Telerik.Web.UI.RadWindow.prototype.restore;
Telerik.Web.UI.RadWindow.prototype.restore = function()
{
    //if you want to call the restore() function, use
    //this.oldRestore();

}
</script>

</form>
