RadWindow - InitialBehaviour not working

[pbarron]

Hi,

I'm using the RadWindows however when I try to set up an intialBehaviour so that the window starts off pinned when opened it doesn't work.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

<telerik:RadWindowManager ID="RadWindowManager1" ShowContentDuringLoad="false" runat="server" Left="30" VisibleTitlebar="false" VisibleStatusbar="false" PreserveClientState="false">
<Windows>
<telerik:RadWindow Skin="Default" ID="Students" runat="server" Title="Assessment students" OpenerElementID="link4" Behaviors="Close, Move, Pin" VisibleTitlebar="true" Modal="true" ReloadOnShow="true" KeepInScreenBounds="true" InitialBehaviors="Pin" />
</Windows>
</telerik:RadWindowManager>

Hi,
The value of the property InitialBehavior applies only to windows which have their visibleonpageload property set to true. Try setting VisibleOnPageLoad="true" in the tag of your RadWindow.

ASPX:

 <telerik:RadWindow ID="RadWindow1"  VisibleOnPageLoad="true" InitialBehaviors="pin"   runat="server">
        </telerik:RadWindow>

Thanks
Shinu

Hi Shinu,

Whilst this does work it also has the unwelcome effect of opening the radwindow as soon as the parent page loads.

Surely there must be a way of setting the default behaviours without the radwindow automatically opening?

Hi pbarron,

As Shinu said, Initial Behaviors will work only if the RadWindow is opened from the server (e.g. VisibleOnPageLoad is set to true). If you want to have a maximized RadWindow when opening it from the client, you need to use the maximize() method.

Hi pbarron,

InitialBehaviors property controls the state of the window when it first appears. You can go through the following help article to get more details .
