RadDatePicker does not pick up the Skin

[Fonny]

I am using RadDatePicker in my application.

It is working fine until I have to set up visible = false.

I only display RadDatePicker when user clicks a button. But, RadDatePicker does not pick up the skin when I set visible = true.

Hello Fonny,

Unfortunately we have to admit that the latest hotfix version of RadInput (2.1.3) or RadDatePicker (2.2.3) introduces a bug when the Visible property for the control is set to false. Please, download the RadCalendar hotfix from the following link and let us know if you have further problems.

I am using Radcontrols Prometheus's RadDatePicker

<

telerik:RadDatePicker ID="rdpFromDate" runat="server">

</telerik:RadDatePicker>

I do not use the RadControls for ASP.NET

Hi Fonny,

Thank you for the clarification. The problem is coming from the fact that the MS AJAX framework does not update the head element of the page where our control would normally register its styles. So when you try to show it on ajax request, it would not pick up the styles. The workaround is to either hardcode the .css files in the head element or place another instance on the page with display:none. The good news is that we are working on a workaround for this MS AJAX limitation which will be available for the Q1 release.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Best wishes,
Steve
