[Solved] Hide horizontal scrollbar and custom navigation in RadSchedule for winforms?

As the subject suggests, I would like to know if I can hide the horizontal scrollbar in a RadSchedule control when in timeline view?

Also, I would like to know if it's possible to navigate forwards and backwards through the timeline using events? IE have "Forward" and "Backward" buttons to move forwards or backwards a week at a time.

Thanks,
Karl

Problem with multiple RadScheduler & Timeline view

Hello,

I want to use RadScheduler to build a master/detail form as timeline views:
=> on top, a radscheduler component displaying a global timelineview of summarized tasks, with timescales as months, 12 months displayed.
=> on bottom, another radscheduler displaying a more detailed timeline view, with timescales as days, 30 days displayed.

It seems that any change in one component affects the other one.

                radScheduler1.GetTimelineView().ShowTimescale(Telerik.WinControls.UI.Timescales.Weeks);
                radScheduler1.GetTimelineView().GetScaling().DisplayedCellsCount = 12;

                radScheduler2.GetTimelineView().ShowTimescale(Telerik.WinControls.UI.Timescales.Days);
                radScheduler2.GetTimelineView().GetScaling().DisplayedCellsCount = 30;

This piece of code results in having both controls displaying 30 days (Moreover with display glitches on the first one).
What am I doing wrong?
(I'm using 2012.1.12.215)

Regards,

transparent background for Rad ShapedForm

How do I set make my ShapedForm's background color transparent? Setting in in the Visual Studio designer throws exception "Control does not support transparency". I am using an image with rounded corner as the background for the form, so unless the background color is transparent, there will be a small area at the form's corners having the same color as the form's background color, which doesn't look nice.

Thanks

GridSpinEditor allows Extra decimal places

We have decided to go with an editable RadGridView for a particular project. We have run into some snags along the way which the forums have been very helpful. However, I have not noticed that anyone else has encountered this problem.

I have a Decimal Column with the DecimalPlaces property set to 2. When there is already data in the column lets say "50.00" and you move over to that column, without entering edit mode, and just start typing a new value like "123.50", the GridSpinEditor allows the user to overwrite the first digits (as it should), but when you get to typing the decimal in 123.50 it stops the overwriting and starts inserting.

This leaves a final text value of "123.50.00". When you hit enter the value magically changes to "1" in the grid.

Can anyone explain this?

I have a sample project. You can enter a value of 50 in column one. Then press enter to finalize it. Then, while the current cell is that same 50 cell, start typing 123.50. You will get 123.50.00 before the cell ends edit. And when it does end edit the final value will be 1.

[Solved] Dynamicly update column border.

Hi,

I've created some style with Visual Style Builder and I'm using it with rad grid view.

I would like to hide a column border - but just between 2 column headers.

Particular grid view could have different data sources so I need to set this (hide column splitter) dynamically.

I've attached the screen shot with marked on the splitter I'd like to hide.

I browsed through column properties but still couldn't find any matching field to set, please help me with this one...

Regards.

Working With text

Hi,

I have a relatively simple use for the RichTextBox. I'm using it to display log messages in an application.

I will have two types of messages: Information and Errors. I would like to display the error string in red while the information in black.

How can I change the font color as it is being inserted to the box?

Also, can the font and size be changed at design time? I have the standard font and size (8.25) but it looks much bigger than a standard RadTextBox. Also there seems to be some sort of padding above it as there is a large space between lines (something like a line height in HTML).

Thanks in advance.

Word VSTO: Busy Indicator?

I'm currently developing a Word 2010 VSTO Document-Level Add-In that has to do extended operations on the open document. As these operations can take some seconds to complete, I'd like to indicate this to the users (so they don't get nervous and start clicking wildly around...).

I've used the Telerik WPF RadBusyIndicator in a WPF project some time ago and really liked how easy it was to implement (and didn't obscure my code as well). It would be great if I could create the same effect using Telerik WinForms/WPF components.

Currently, the main thread directly operates on the document. I have not much experience in threaded programming, but I'd like to implement a clean and reusable solution that does not clutter the important part of my code.

cheers
Nicolas
