Hate to ask this but when I use Infragistics controls (evil competitor), they have the concept of showing an Overflow Indicator in the edit control when the text in the control will be cut off (too much text to show all of it).  This is very useful for end users as they can hover over the indicator and get a tooltip of all of the text.

How can I, using the TextBox control:

Show an Overflow Indicator such that the user can see all their text in a tooltip?
OR
Have the text clip at word/characters with a "..." at the end of the control such that the user can then see all their text in a tooltip?
OR
Determine if the text has been clipped?  If it is clipped then I can set the tooltip myself to the text.

By the way, I like the Telerik controls in that they "feel" better thus I'm in your forums ;)

There seems to be a problem with RTF in RadRichTextBox when interpreting \b0 and \i0 as in they are ignored.

So RTF where the text contains for example: "Test of \b Bold\b0 text" should be shown with only "Bold" in bold, but the \b0 is ignored and the rest of the paragraph is in bold. The same happens with italics and \i0.

The same RTF is shown correctly in .NET's normal RichTextBox and in Word.

This is with RadRichTextBox from 2011 Q3 (RadControls_WinForms_2011_3_11_1219_dev.msi).

Has this bug been fixed in a newer release?

Hi,
I have a menu that has excess padding on the right of all my CommandBarDropDownButton menu items that for some of our users with low resolution, is causing problems with child menu items displaying.  Is there a way to reduce the amount of padding to the right of each menu item either through Visual Style Builder or through code? See image below for a visual.

Thanks,
David A.

Hi!
The RadLabel text property can contain HTML. Before -in the first release of the Telerik controls I had installed- the property in the VS2010 toolbox had a little button that called a dialog which contained an HTML editor. However, since the last 2 updates that little button has disappeared and I can't call this dialog anymore...How can I get the dialog back?

Tia,

I have enabled Sorting and Column Sorting under the Telerik ListView properties.

This ListView is updated on a regular interval. In the update method I call Items.Clear() and Columns.Clear().
I add some columns programmitically as well. However, when the code runs below it throws an "Out of range index" exception.


This only occurs after I have clicked a column header to sort it. If the column was not sorted, the code runs fine.
When I look at the Count of radListView.Items the Count is 0. This means the radListView.Item.Add method did nothing..

Hello,


In my RadGridViews>Datatime columns, the datetime are display like this for example 28/03/2012 00:00:00 .
I would like them not to display time.

I've tried to set the formatstring as "dd/MM/yyyy" in the columns properties but then in the column cells it was displayed dd/MM/yyyy, I mean litterally dd/MM/yyyy, not the the date.

So, what am I doing wrong ?


Thank you for support.

I have some grids that are behaving oddly.  They both have two columns/no headers, but the text of the columns is off the grid to the right.  For some reason there are no horizontal scroll-bars, which would be OK if the first column wasn't lost.  Anyway, see the two grids in the attachments.  The attachments are to illustrate the bottom grid before/after I click on the cell with text.

Any ideas?

Hello.

This is related to a question that I asked earlier about the Tab Overflow that Richard Slade answered for me.

Is it possible to pin a Document Tab?

Case:  User opens several Tabbed Document Windows at the start of the day.  The first Tab is a TreeView Navigator for all of the other Documents.  And the users want the Navigator Tab to stay as the first Tab on the left side.  I have been able to keep the Navigator Tab in place when ever a new Window (Document) is opened by always setting that Tab index to 0.  Any Tabs that overflow, overflow to the right.  This is the behavior that the users want.  The issue is that when an existing Tab is activated by the OverFlow Button or just selecting it again from the Navigator.  When the reactivated Tab that is re-indexed to become visible, there is a shift of the Tabs to the left, pushing the Navigator Tab out of view.  I couldn't find any setter properties that I could use to shift the Tabs back to the right.

Of course, screen real estate is always an issue and some of the windows have rather large grids on them which we try very hard to keep all of the columns visible (no scroll bar) in the 1024 X 768 resolution that the users want.  So, I've tried making the Navigator Tab a Tool Widow that can be pinned and hidden but that little space that the "hidden" ToolBar takes is just enough to force a scroll bar on some of the Windows with grids.

So, if anyone knows a way to keep the Navigator Tab from shifting to the left, or a way to reshift it to the right, or just a better way to accomplish this,  I will appreciate all tips and ideas.

Thanks

Ok, so I’m having a really weird problem with the GridView control in a project I've been working on. I’ve been trying to figure out what is going on all day and I haven’t been able to. Basically I’m trying to swap out the standard DataGridView for the telerik grid. When I put the control on a form or user control it formats the grid really strangely. I haven’t done anything beyond setting the Dock property so it should be set with the default styling’s. I have attached some screen shots showing the problem. The first one is from my project (I attached it to a data source so I can show how the formatting looks), the second is from a brand new project. I did the same thing on each.

Anyone have any thoughts on what this could be? Maybe something is the project is overwriting the theme? I was also having an issue with the standard grid where it wouldn’t allow users to resize the columns, even though the option was set in the user control and explicitly on the form.

My goal is ultimately to put it in a user control but I've also tried directly on a form and both produce the same result.  I've tried toggling read only on and off with no luck. I even checked the read only appearance in the working grid and it doesn't look anything like it. Its definitely enabled and I can pull data back and interact with the grid, it just looks funny. It appears to have all the right functionality but it is acting strange when added to the grid or control. In the designer code it is just doing a dim of the instance instead of a friend withevents as in other controls. I am not able to reproduce the issue in a new project so the more I think about it I wonder if there is something in the guts of the program overwriting something. I just don't know where that could be. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
