Resource control width/height

[zx10r]

Hi,

How can i control the width of the resource in the advanced form view. Because of the data i am loading it does not expand and the text is long.

 

<telerik:ResourceType DataSourceID="Patients" Name="Patient" TextField="PatientName" KeyField="PatientId" 
                    ForeignKeyField="AppPatientId"/>

 

Thanks

By the way, i have tried the bellow but it is not finding the control and errors out:

 

protected void RadScheduler1_FormCreated(object sender, SchedulerFormCreatedEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Container.Mode == SchedulerFormMode.AdvancedEdit || e.Container.Mode == SchedulerFormMode.AdvancedInsert)
            {
                RadComboBox x = (RadComboBox)e.Container.FindControl("ResPatient");
            }
        }

Found the problem. So it seems that the ResourceType in the scheduler by default implements a DropDownList rather then the ComboBox. Is this the expected behavior and can it be changed?

Hello Almira,

I replied to your inquiry in the support thread you started with the same subject. In order to avoid thread duplication, I would suggest we continue the discussion in it if you have other questions on this matter.

The approach that has to be used is shown in the Customizing Advanced Insert and Edit Forms demo. The DropDownList that is used for displaying resources can be changed to ComboBox in the ResourceControlCS.ascx, respectively DropDownListItem to RadComboBoxItem in ResourceControlCS.ascx.cs.
