[Solved] DropDownList Shape RoundRect c#

Hi there,

I am writing to you to understand if you could help me as to the following.

Currently I am developing an application and I am exploiting RAD WinControls in C#.

In one form I have a few text boxes with the TextBoxElement.Shape set to RoundRect.

I would need to do the same in a couple of dropdown lists and in one datetime picker.

Therefore I am trying to set the related properties in the same way:

e.g. ddlDropDown.DropDownListElement.Shape = new Telerik.WinControls.RoundRectShape();

Yet in this case the displayed items show some white angles (see attachment)

Would you please help me to understand how to fix that, i.e. how to delete or hide the white angles?

Thanks in advance for your kind collaboration

Best regards

Davide

RadLabel Size is 0

Is there any way to get the RadLabel size when it is created via runtime?

I am trying to calculate the height of a container control by summing the height properties of the controls added to the container.

When create a new object instance of a RadLabel in code such as this:

Dim p_Label as New RadLabel

. . the width and height properties are set to 0 and remain at zero even after setting the text property.

I was looking for some type of Resize method that could be called after setting the .Text and .Font property, but have been unable to find such a way to cause the control to recalculate its size.

A point of clarification: after adding the RadLabel to a container the height property is always 1, which is not really the case.

Sorting by DateTime

Has anyone managed to sort a listview by a date rather than having the column taken to be a string?

I can't see a date specific entry so i'm currently using

ShareMessageListView.Columns.Add(new Telerik.WinControls.UI.ListViewDetailColumn("Date"));

This may be my problem.

[Solved] Custom Cell displaying Multi-column list

I need to show a multi-column list within a gridview cell (read-only). I've read the documentation on creating custom cells but can't figure out which element to use in my custom cell. If anyone has any sample code or could simply advise which RadElement to use, I would really appreciate it.

[Solved] Show Table Within Cell

I have a need to show a table-like representation of a list of data within a cell of my gridview. The gridview is bound to a custom collection of objects and I need one cell to show codes related to the object. It should show the codes as a 3-column table (or list) with columns: ID Code Description. I can't use a nested gridview for this because the user should not have to expand anything in order to view the codes - they need to be visible directly in the main gridview's cell. The gridview is read-only. Is there any way I can accomplish this?

Thanks!

Mdi children not drawing correctly

I've been evaluating your controls, one issue that seems to be happening is that when I'm using radform for mdi children, the forms are not drawn correctly initially. They are missing the control box of the title bar. It just isn't being drawn correctly. If I minimize the mdi/child form, the title bar is not drawn correctly. Thinking it was the video drivers or an issue possibly with video memory addressing, I updated to the latest video driver set. No correction of issue.

I'm running:

Windows Vista 64 SP1
ATI Radeon 3600 series video card.
4 Gig of RAM
9750 AMD Quad-core processor.

Thank you

Terry
