Editable GridViewComboBoxColumn

I need to have a column in the grid where a user can either select a value from a list or type in a value. For example, if the user is enter a face amount for a life insurance policy the user can either select one of these three options: Minimum, Maximum, Target or enter a number from 100,000 to 10,000,000.

I tried using the GridViewComboBoxColumn and setting the DropDownStyle to DropDown. This allowed me to edit the value in the cell, but when I leave the cell, the cell's display value flips back to what it was previously.

In the example attached, click on the first row where it says 'Minimum' and type in 100000, then hit the tab key to move to a new cell. The cell flips from 100000 back to 'Minimum'.

Is there a way to use the GridViewComboBoxColumn to allow the user to either select a value from the drop down list or type in a value?

Here is the Form1.Designer.cs file:

namespace GridComboBoxColumn

{

partial class Form1

{

/// <summary>

/// Required designer variable.

/// </summary>

private System.ComponentModel.IContainer components = null;

/// <summary>

/// Clean up any resources being used.

/// </summary>

/// <param name="disposing">true if managed resources should be disposed; otherwise, false.</param>

protected override void Dispose(bool disposing)

{

if (disposing && (components != null))

{

components.Dispose();

}

base.Dispose(disposing);

}

#region Windows Form Designer generated code

/// <summary>

/// Required method for Designer support - do not modify

/// the contents of this method with the code editor.

/// </summary>

private void InitializeComponent()

{

this._grid = new Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadGridView();

((System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize)(this._grid)).BeginInit();

this.SuspendLayout();

//

// _grid

//

this._grid.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(13, 13);

this._grid.Name = "_grid";

this._grid.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(259, 237);

this._grid.TabIndex = 0;

this._grid.Text = "radGridView1";

//

// Form1

//

this.AutoScaleDimensions = new System.Drawing.SizeF(6F, 13F);

this.AutoScaleMode = System.Windows.Forms.AutoScaleMode.Font;

this.ClientSize = new System.Drawing.Size(284, 262);

this.Controls.Add(this._grid);

this.Name = "Form1";

this.Text = "Form1";

((System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize)(this._grid)).EndInit();

this.ResumeLayout(false);

}

#endregion

private Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadGridView _grid;

}

Here is the sample Form1.cs file:

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Data;

using System.Drawing;

column.Name = "Policy.FaceAmount";

column.HeaderText = "Total Face Amount";

column.ValueMember = "Value";

column.DisplayMember = "Name";

column.DropDownStyle = Telerik.WinControls.RadDropDownStyle.DropDown;

column.ReadOnly = false;

BindingList<QuestionSelectionItem> list = new BindingList<QuestionSelectionItem>();

Memory leak when repeatedly auto-hiding then docking ToolWindow in RadDock with data-binding

Hey Telerik,

I've discovered a memory leak issue when repeatedly auto-hiding then docking a ToolWindow in a RadDock.

I'm designing an application using the MVVM design pattern with a basic View and View-Model. The View is a form that contains a RadDock with a ToolWindow, and data-binding setup to the ToolWindow's property "DockState." The View-Model contains the bound property "ToolWindow1DockState" that uses INotifyPropertyChanged to update the ToolWindow's property "DockState". Below is my code, attached is my View's designer.

View

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.ComponentModel;

using System.Data;

using System.Drawing;

using System.Linq;

using System.Text;

using System.Windows.Forms;

using RadDockMemoryTest.ViewModel;

namespace RadDockMemoryTest.View

{

public partial class Form1 : Form

{

private MainViewModel viewModel;

/// <summary>

/// View Model object

/// </summary>

public MainViewModel ViewModel

{

get

{

if (viewModel == null)

{

ViewModel = new MainViewModel();

}

return viewModel;

}

set { viewModel = value; }

}

/// <summary>

/// Form default constructor

/// </summary>

public Form1()

{

InitializeComponent();

}

/// <summary>

/// Form load event handler

/// </summary>

/// <param name="sender"></param>

/// <param name="e"></param>

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

setupControlBindings();

}

/// <summary>

/// Setup window's control bindings

/// </summary>

private void setupControlBindings()

{

radDock1.DockWindows["toolWindow1"].DataBindings.Add("DockState", ViewModel, "ToolWindow1DockState", true, DataSourceUpdateMode.Never);

}

ViewModel

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Linq;

using System.Text;

using Telerik.WinControls.UI.Docking;

namespace RadDockMemoryTest.ViewModel

{

public class MainViewModel : ViewModelBase

{

private DockState toolWindow1DockState;

/// <summary>

/// Controls toolWindow1's dock state

/// </summary>

public DockState ToolWindow1DockState

{

get { return toolWindow1DockState; }

set

{

toolWindow1DockState = value;

OnPropertyChanged("ToolWindow1DockState");

}

I setup a Window's automation tool to execute the following sequence:
1. Click "Auto-hide" on the docked ToolWindow.
2. Click the ToolWindow tab.
3. Click "Docked" to restore the ToolWindow to its docked state.

After letting the automation run overnight and observing memory processes in Windows Task Manager, I noticed the application's memory usage jumped from 32,000KB to 800,000KB.

How can I avoid the memory leak?

Thanks,
Eljay

Prevent grid movement on edit

Hi,
I have a aesthetical issue when editing the grid which can be seen in the Q3 SP1 demos under Columns, Grid Views. If you change the view to TableView and click in the Phone Column, the grid slightly "jumps" to the left. If you then click in the ID Column, the grid slightly "jumps" to the right. This is most noticeable if you look at the column headers.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
David A.

HtmlViewDefinition of the RadGridView

Hello,

I am trying to divide the column header of some columns in two with the HtmlViewDefinition of the RadGridView. My table is not so complex for the moment but I just can't make it work....

I attached an Excel file screenshot to this message so you can have a look to what I want to do and below is the code I wrote so far:

radGridViewSaleReport.DataSource = myList; //binding list

HtmlViewDefinition view = new HtmlViewDefinition();

view.RowTemplate.Rows.Add(new RowDefinition());

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Customer Name"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Unit"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Unit Type"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Unit Area"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Price/Sq.M."));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Selling Price"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Initial booking"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Booking"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Signing Contract"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Contract signed"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Transfer"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Sale"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Comment"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[1].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Amount"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[1].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Date"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[1].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Amount"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[1].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Date"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[1].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Amount"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[1].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Date"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[1].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Amount"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[1].Cells.Add(new CellDefinition("Date"));

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells[0].RowSpan = 2;

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells[1].RowSpan = 2;

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells[2].RowSpan = 2;

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells[3].RowSpan = 2;

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells[4].RowSpan = 2;

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells[5].RowSpan = 2;

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells[9].RowSpan = 2;

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells[11].RowSpan = 2;

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells[12].RowSpan = 2;

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells[6].ColSpan = 2;

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells[7].ColSpan = 2;

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells[8].ColSpan = 2;

view.RowTemplate.Rows[0].Cells[10].ColSpan = 2;

radGridViewSaleReport.Update();

this.radGridViewSaleReport.ViewDefinition = view;

this.radGridViewSaleReport.TableElement.CellSpacing = -1;

this.radGridViewSaleReport.TableElement.RowSpacing = -1;

I have a binding list full of data in it which I give to the radgridview and then I define the view and apply the view to the radgridview after updating it.

With this code, the radgridview look like the screenshot radgridview result.

Any idea how to display the data correctly into the radgridview?

Thanks,
LB
