[Solved] Row Indicator Click

[Seth]

I am showing a row indicator on my grid,  when I click on the row indicator block I would expect the row to be selected, but this is not the case. The Row is highlighted when I hover over the row indicator, but in appears that no event fires when the row indicator is clicked.

All of the examples on your website seem to have the desired behavior by default.  I am using version 

v2009.3.1103.1030 of the controls.   Is there a know issue with the row indicator in this version?

Hi,

RowIndicator stopped working when I upgraded to the latest version (2010.2.710.1040) this morning.
It was working on 2010.1.422.1040

Would you please check this?

Thanks in advance,

Eugenio

Hello,

Can you set IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem to True and let me know about the result?

Vlad,

Your suggestion worked, thanks for the prompt reply.

But I think that Telerik should avoid changes in default values. We as developers don't expect changes in behavior of our apps in every upgrade of our controls suite. The new goodies should be activated only if we decided to do so. This is not the first time that it happens to me. Please, make our upgrades as smooth as possible.

Thank you,

Eugenio

Hi Eugenio,

 Previous Q we received lots of feedback regarding this properly and that is why we decided to change the default value to False. 

Kind regards,

Hi Vlad,

In my honest opnion Telerik is doing in the wrong way.

This kind of change brakes existing code and makes the process of upgrade expensive.  It makes us fear that other "surprises" come with the update. I really think that Telerik has a great suite of controls but this kind of thing is concerning.

Please take care of this kind of situation for the next updates.

Thanks in advance,

Eugenio

this was a breaking change for me as well

Just to be certain. I need to go into all of our pages and controls that use your grid and add that property and set it to true to behave like it used to? (We do not subclass your grid.)

Hello ,

 No. You can do this with simple global style in App.xaml:

<Application xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
             xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
             x:Class="SilverlightApplication1.App"
             xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2008/xaml/presentation">
    <Application.Resources>
        <Style TargetType="telerik:RadGridView">
            <Setter Property="IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem" Value="True"/>
        </Style>
    </Application.Resources>
</Application>
