Using RadWindow as a Normal Div-Like Container

[kencox]

To maintain UI consistency in the site, I'd like to use the RadWindow in a fixed position as a normal div-like container.
 
I don't need (or want) it to pop-up, float, collapse, move or disappear.

Does anyone have any suggestions, advice, or example on doing that?

Thanks,

Ken

Hello Ken,

We are currently working on such functionality - it should be available with the Q3 release.

Thanks for the info.

A rounded corners feature for windows would also be welcome.

Hello Ken,

Most of RadWindow's skins are using rounded corners - you could examine them in any of our demos.

Hello,

Is there any news on how to use a RadWindow as a normal div-like container? 

I want it to be a standard (non-floating) div container for controls so I can use the same skinning for containers to keep a consistent UI.

Thanks,
Gareth

Hi Gareth,

Since Q3 2009, RadWindow supports content templates - more information and examples can be found in the following demo and in the documentation:
http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/window/examples/internalcontent/defaultcs.aspx

If you want to disable the RadWindow's movement, just remove "Move" from its Behaviors list.
e.g.
Behaviors="Close, Resize, Maximize"

I hope this helps.

Hello,

Thank you but I have already managed to achieve that but I don't want the window to float and be inline on the page. Is that possible?

Thanks a lot,
Gareth

Hi again Gareth,

Excluding "Move" from the RadWindow's behaviors will have it fixed on the page. The control however, is a direct child of the form and is using absolute positioning. You can use its Top and Left properties to position it in the desired location.
