Hi...
say i have a pageview in strip mod , i wont my program to had support for english and a right to left language, i noticed that when changing the right to left property to true, the pages still at left !, and their indexes are the same.

(i.e.
right to left property set to true:

pageview looks like this
[page1]-[page2]-[page3]..................................................................................................

and they should look like this:
.................................................................................................. [page3]-[page2]-[page1]
i did search the form and found that i can change the index of the pages, and swap their location, but i'd rather have them set that way in design time. and its much easier to shift from or to right to left state if it does change the location automatically.
is that achievable or i should look to use code. thx

Hello Scart,

Sorry, i believe i have missed this post,
For the right to left property i would ask you if you could wait just a little bit longer, enhanced RightToLeft support has been a main concern in the new version Q1 2011 which will be released very soon.

I have the same problem, the strips have no alignment (automatic or manual) and you can not align strips.
It is so weired that why i cant align my tabs (center, left , right).
and when i set the RightToLeft, control still renderes from left !!!

Hello Scart,

What you have said seems to be the case in the current version. The good news is, that the new Q1 2011 release is due out this week and there have been major enhancements to the Right to Left support over all Telerik WinControls as well as a vast range of other improvements.

You can see the roadmap for the upcoming release at this link

Regards,
Richard

@Emanuel, not sure why my browser didn't show these additional posts. I seem to have doubled up on your answer. R

Hello scart,

Thank you for your question.

The only workaround you can achieve by now is to set the ItemsAlingment property to Far and reverse the order of the items. But even doing so you will not be able to move the control buttons to the left.

(radPageView1.ViewElement as RadPageViewStripElement).ItemAlignment = StripViewItemAlignment.Far;

Right-to-Left will be significantly improved in the Q1 2011 release and will also be supported by the RadPageView. The strip view will look just as you proposed and all you will have to do is change the RightToLeft property.

I hope this information is useful. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Best wishes,

Ivan Todorov
