Dear Support,

We use RadGridView with decimal column. If the user position to a cell with the keyboard and try to enter the value -123.456 the value will be 123.456. The '-' sign put the cell in edit mode but don't display in the cell? The demo have the same behavior (GridView - Columns - Column Types) with the decmal column. To be working the correct way, the user have to enter --123.456 by typing 2 times - sign...

Is there a way to trap the '-' sign and display as the current value of the cell?

Regards,
Nadia

Accessing PageView Labels

I have a page where I am using a NestedViewTemplate with a RadTabStrip, RadMultiPage, and two RadPageViews.

I have labels in RadPageView2 that I would like to get the text from in my code behind, so I can convert their values to integers to calculate in a formula that will then update another label's text in the same PageView. My questions are:

1. How can I get the text value of a label in my codebehind where the label resides in my second PageView?
2. How do I update the text value of a label in my second PageView from my codebehind?

A non working example of what I was trying is the following:

protected void RadTabStrip1_TabClick(object sender, RadTabStripEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Tab.Text.Equals("Tab Text"))
{
e.Tab.PageView.FindControl("myLabel").Text = "Created from Code Behind";
}
}

Kind regards,

Ben

Exporting GridView with Mutiple Child Templates using Interop.Excel

I am exporting a GridView that contains 2 child templates. However, I am not using the ExportToExcelML to perform the export. I am using Interop.Excel.

The two child templates are displayed at the same hierarchical level. Currently, I am using "foreach" to step through each row in the parent template and write its data to the Excel sheet.

I'm having trouble stepping through the related rows in each child template once I have the GridViewRowInfo of the parent row inside the "foreach". I can't seem to find an efficient way to access the rows of each template that directly relate to the current parent row. The ChildRows collection only seems to contain the rows of the first template.

Is there a built-in method or an elogant approach I could use to step through the child rows of each child template?

My current setup is as follows:

foreach (GridViewRowInfo row in gridView.Rows)

{

//Write parent row data to Excel sheet

//Access each child template either with a loop or explicitly

//Step through child template's rows and write the row data to the Excel sheet

}

VisualItemFormatting tooltips

Hi There,

I'm working on a grid which has a GridViewComboBoxColumn. the column is often not wide enough the fit the item text. So i wanted to add a tool tip for each item in the list.
I found this article which seemed to be what i was after:
http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/winforms/dropdownlist-and-listcontrol/auto-horizontal-scroll-and-item-tooltip-in-radlistcontrol.aspx

but my code doesn't seem to work:

protected void rgDraft_CellEditorInitialized(object sender, GridViewCellEventArgs e)

{

if (e.Column.Name == "Country")

{

RadDropDownListEditor editor = (RadDropDownListEditor)this.rgDraft.ActiveEditor;

RadDropDownListEditorElement editorElement = (RadDropDownListEditorElement)editor.EditorElement;

editorElement.VisualItemFormatting += new VisualListItemFormattingEventHandler(delegate(object formattingsender, VisualItemFormattingEventArgs args)

{

args.VisualItem.ToolTipText = args.VisualItem.Text;

});

}

Any idea why this doesn't work? I can do other things, like set the bgcolor to red and that works as expected

Many thanks,
Matt

Poor performance in version 2012.1.321

Hi!

I've encountered a problem with bad performance in RadControls for WinForms ver. 2012.1.321. After upgrading from version 2011.2.831, my application really drags its feet. I've pinned down one line of code that runs slower on the new version, but its not the only one:

private RadTreeNode FindNodeWithTag(object oId)

{

DateTime start = DateTime.Now;

try

{

return rtvLassListe.Find(delegate(RadTreeNode n) { return ((n.Tag == oId) ? true : false); });

}

finally

{

ErrorLog.LogErrorMessage( (DateTime.Now - start).TotalMilliseconds.ToString() + " ms i FindNodeWithTag()" );

}

This function logs 1-2 milliseconds in the 2011-version, compared to about 85000 in the 2012 version the first time it runs. Later runs on the same code have less differences, but still uses about 5-10 times as much time as the earlier version.

Uninstalling the 2012-version and reverting to the 2011-version fixes the problem. No other changes...

I did get an error message during installation that stated: "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2318."

Could the installation error be the source of the problem, or are there other known problems?

What kind of error does the error code 2318 represent, and how can I get rid of the error?

Greetings,
Sverre H.

GridView ExportHierarchy for Multiple Child Templates?

Hello,

I have a RadGridView that contains 3 child templates in it. So when you expand each row, there are 3 tabs that you can view the data for each child template by clicking on each tab.

In my export code, i have the exporter.ExportHierarchy = true; for each export function. However, when i go to export the gridview to CSV / Excel / HTML / PDF, it appears that it can only export the first child template hierarchical grid data. It does not export all 3.

My question - Can the data for ALL child templates be exported using the CSV / Excel / HTML and/or PDF exporter commands?

Please let me know if this is possible, as right now it is only exporting the first child template.

If this is not possible to export all 3 child templates, is it possible to remove certain child templates before exporting so that i can provide my user with options on what child template they want to export?

Your help in this matter would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

[Solved] VSB and the Aqua Theme

I see that the PITS issue to make the Aqua theme exportable/usable in the VSB has been deleted. Is there a reason for this ? The aqua theme is one of the long term themes in the controls now, is there a reason it wasn't enabled in the VSB to begin with ?
