[Solved] When OOB, behaviour of calendar changes

[Ralph]

I have a Silverlight 4 application that has a RadCalendar (current release) in it which has the SelectionMode set to Multiple.
 

<telerikInput:RadCalendar  HorizontalAlignment="Left"
                                  Grid.Row="1"
                                  Name="cldrBeginDate"
                                  VerticalAlignment="Top"
                                  Width="194"
                                  AreWeekNumbersVisible="False"
                                  FontSize="9"
                                  Margin="2,2,2,2"
                                  telerik:StyleManager.Theme="Windows7"
                                  IsTodayHighlighted="True"
                                  SelectionMode="Multiple" SelectedDate="{Binding Mode=OneWay}">


       </telerikInput:RadCalendar>

On load there are 5 dates added to a List(Of Date). These dates are then selected in the calendar control.
The user can then interact with the calendar, select a dates and add it to the List. If they pick a further date, their last date is removed and their new date added.
This behavior is working correctly in FireFox when run. However when it is run in OOB mode the selection is added to rather than quickly.

Private Sub wsCommon_Pxy_GetKeyDatesCompleted(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As wsCommon_Proxy.GetKeyDatesCompletedEventArgs)
    Dim keyDatesStr As String = e.Result
    Dim keyDates As String() = keyDatesStr.Split("|")
    _q1 = keyDates(1)
    _q2 = keyDates(3)
    _q3 = keyDates(5)
    _q4 = keyDates(7)

    _keyDates = New List(Of Date)
    _keyDates.Add(Date.Now)
    _keyDates.Add(keyDates(1))
    _keyDates.Add(keyDates(3))
    _keyDates.Add(keyDates(5))
    _keyDates.Add(keyDates(7))

   AddInstalDatesToCalendar()
End Sub

Private Sub AddInstalDatesToCalendar()
    cldrBeginDate.SelectedDates.Clear()
    cldrBeginDate.SelectedDates.Add(Date.Now)
    cldrBeginDate.SelectedDates.Add(_q1)
    cldrBeginDate.SelectedDates.Add(_q2)
    cldrBeginDate.SelectedDates.Add(_q3)
    cldrBeginDate.SelectedDates.Add(_q4)
End Sub

Private Sub cldrBeginDate_SelectionChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Windows.Controls.SelectionChangedEventArgs) Handles cldrBeginDate.SelectionChanged
    If cldrBeginDate.SelectedDates.Count > 6 Then
        _oldSelectedDate = cldrBeginDate.SelectedDates.Item(5)
        cldrBeginDate.SelectedDates.RemoveAt(5)

    ElseIf cldrBeginDate.SelectedDates.Count = 6 Then
        Dim newSelectedDate As Date = cldrBeginDate.SelectedDates.Item(5)

        txtBlkNumUnits.Text = "Remaining time periods" & vbCrLf &
                                    "from " & newSelectedDate.ToShortDateString & vbCrLf &
                                    "to " & targetDate.ToShortDateString
    End If
End Sub

There is no apparent reason to me that the behaviour is changing and was hoping that someone else can replicate it before I log a bug.

Hello Ralph,

Sorry for the late response as we were developing our new Q2 2010 release. I have checked a project similar to yours and couldn't find any strange behavior. Can you send us a working app that we can test it and also some more info describing the error you are concerning about.

All the best,

Hi Kaloyan

no problem with the delay in replying, most understandable. I will endeavour to put together an example that shows the (mis-)behaviour if I can get it to do it again. If I can't I will close the thread.

I have just put together a simple test application and could not manage to get the issue to occur again so it looks like that there was something else going on. So lets close this thread.

Thanks very much
