Q3 time shift to window center

[Ulrich Fiege]

We detected in the new Q3 version that the radwindow sometimes is not centering or has a long
time shift and centers afterwards. It looks very strange.

Hello Ulrich,

Could you please give us more information about this problem with RadWindow? If you send us a sample project that reproduces the problem it would be very helpful. 

I will be glad to assist you further.

All the best,

It seems to be a generelly problem on most radwindows what we have build in.
Here is a code snipped:

<telerikNavigation:RadWindow x:Name="chartwindow" IsRestricted="False" MaxWidth="1100" MaxHeight="550" telerik:StyleManager.Theme="Windows7" WindowStartupLocation="CenterScreen" ResizeMode="NoResize" Header="{Binding Path=ResTour.radpanel7, Source={StaticResource LocalizedStrings}}">
            <Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot8" ShowGridLines="False">
                <Grid.Background>
                    <LinearGradientBrush EndPoint="0.5,1" StartPoint="0.5,0">
                        <GradientStop Color="#FF8C9ABC" Offset="0"/>
                        <GradientStop Color="#FF6B7B9F" Offset="1"/>
                    </LinearGradientBrush>
                </Grid.Background>
                <Grid.RowDefinitions>
                    <RowDefinition Height="10" />
                    <RowDefinition Height="495" />
                    <RowDefinition Height="10" />
                </Grid.RowDefinitions>
                <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                    <ColumnDefinition Width="10" />
                    <ColumnDefinition Width="490" />
                    <ColumnDefinition Width="490" />
                    <ColumnDefinition Width="10" />
                </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                <telerikCharting:RadChart x:Name="radchart" Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="1" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" telerik:StyleManager.Theme="Office_Blue" BorderBrush="#41578B" BorderThickness="1,1,1,1" FontFamily="Verdana" FontSize="11">
                  <telerikCharting:RadChart.Effect>
                    <DropShadowEffect BlurRadius="8" ShadowDepth="4"/>
                  </telerikCharting:RadChart.Effect>
                </telerikCharting:RadChart>
            </Grid>
        </telerikNavigation:RadWindow>

Hello Ulrich,

I tried to reproduce the problem, but to no avail. Could you please send us a running sample project that reproduces the problem? It would be very helpful in further investigating the problem. 
Also, we don't support placing the RadWindow in the xaml. Could you please place it in a separate file, just like the Window control.

Best wishes,
George

We only have a large project and it is not possible to send this.
I can only write that this issue occurs since Q3 and also with the new internal build to Q3.
I also detected that the animations are gone. Before we had a fading effect but in Q3 it is gone?
Thanks ...

[George]

Hi Ulrich,

We reproduced the problem with RadWindow and the missing animations. Thank you for reporting this problem. I am glad to update your telerik points. This problem will be fix in one of our further releases.  

But we still cannot reproduce the problem with centering. We need more information to localize the problem. We are shooting in the dark here.

Hello,
I've noticed the same behavior when window  has set WindowStartupLocation="CenterScreen".
You can reproduce it the following way:
Open the window several times in a row. Once in more less 10 times window is opened in other position (sometimes in the center, sometimes some pixels higher.

Hello Jacek Drozd,

I am still not able to reproduce the bad behavior. I am trying with a RadWindow as a separate UserControl and opening it on a button click. But I am not observing such a behavior. Tried a few other things as well but with no success. Could you send me a sample project, code or code snippet that will help us to reproduce the issue.

I will be glad to assist you further.
