[Solved] RadOpenFolderDialog doesn't have Opened event handler

[Vikas]

I need a dialog box in WPF where I can select a folder or location in system. I used RadOpenFolderDialog but I also need Opened event handler similar to DialogParameters telerik control.

Need Opened event handler which points to method that will be called when the Opened event of the Window is fired. Please suggest solution for it.

Also if there is any other dialog box telerik control which is suitable for my requirement, suggest me.

Hello Vikas,

Thank you for your interest in our RadFileDialogs for WPF.

The control itself expose Loaded event. Can you check it out and share if it works for you or not? If not, you can share when this event does not work and when exactly you want to raise an event.

public CustomWindow()
{
    InitializeComponent();
    RadOpenFolderDialog openFolderDialog = new RadOpenFolderDialog();
    openFolderDialog.Header = "Select Folder";
    openFolderDialog.Loaded += OpenFolderDialog_Loaded; // Subscribe to Loaded event         
    openFolderDialog.ShowDialog();
}

private void OpenFolderDialog_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
          
}

In general, RadOpenFolderDialog is a control for choosing a folder on your machine. Another control that you could consider using is the RadFilePathPicker control. This is a simple control with an editing part and a button on the right, which opens the RadOpenFileDialog. Basically, you can use only the dialog, but you can still check it out.
