[Solved] RadPane Header databinding and AutoHide

[Kakone]

Hello,

I think there is a little bug : when I databind my RadPane header and I want to autohide this pane, the header become empty (cf attached file).

If the header is set to a constant value, there is no problem.

<telerikDocking:RadDocking>
  <telerikDocking:RadSplitContainer InitialPosition="DockedLeft">
    <telerikDocking:RadPaneGroup DataContext="{Binding Menu}">
      <telerikDocking:RadPane Header="{Binding SelectedBusinessModuleName}" CanFloat="False" CanUserClose="False" CanDockInDocumentHost="False">
      </telerikDocking:RadPane>
    </telerikDocking:RadPaneGroup>
  </telerikDocking:RadSplitContainer>
  <telerikDocking:RadDocking.DocumentHost>
  </telerikDocking:RadDocking.DocumentHost>
</telerikDocking:RadDocking>

Cordially,
Stephane.

Hello Stéphane,

 The DataContext property is inherited using the VisualTree in Silverlight so when the Pane is moved out of the group (moved to the AutoHideArea) it looses the value of the DataContext it inherits from the PaneGroup.

Hope this information is helpful.

Hi Miroslav,

Could you confirm the same behaviour (the data context is reset) applies to RadPane(s) as they are set to floating and then back to docked ? Is there any work around or way to stop this ?

Therefore if you want to use data binding in your RadPane(s) they cannot be floated or hidden ?

Thanks,
Scott
