Convert Winform to Radform and use of radribbonbar mainform

Hello everyone,

We are willing to update an application we started to develop since a few months with the Telerik components. I was wondering if there is a simple way to convert all the Winforms (about 100 of them) into Radforms easily?

I have also another question:
Once I convert all my winforms into radforms. I would like to display the forms inside the mainform with radribbonbar according on which button in the radribbonbar the user clicks. I found a solution: add a panel into the mainform. On each radform, below all the components there will be another panel which will be added or removed from the panel in the mainform according to what is needed. Do you think it's the best solution? Do you have any other solution?

I could not find much information about the radform in the documentation... that's why I am asking on the forum.

Thank you.
LB.

RadMaskedEditBox Value not working in Q2 2011 version

Hi. I use RadMaskedEditBox to display percent values. My code used the value property of the control to obtain the numeric value without the masked format and to assign values to the control form database fields. In Q2 2011 this is no longer possible because the value property returns the same values as the text property and when I assign values it no longer displays them correctly.

If my masked box displayed "4.00 %", the value property used to return 0.04. Now it returns "4.00 %". In the same way, if the database field had a value of 0.04 the masked box used to display "4.00 %" and now it displays "0.04 %".

Am I doing something wrong or is there a new way of doing this?

Thanks,

Javier Gonzalez de Aragon.

CellDoubleClick for RadGridviewColumn

Hi guys :)

I Have a Radgridview and I want to hide other columns when I doubleclick a certain column
Im doing it through this code

Private Sub DataGridView1_CellDoubleClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewCellEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.CellDoubleClick
DataGridView1.Columns("Column1").IsVisible = False
DataGridView1.Columns("Column2").IsVisible = False
End Sub

But the problem is that I want to use this event when is certain column is doubleclicked and not for all columns. I want this code to run when I double clicked on column5 for example.

Im using vb.net and totally new to telerik controls

Any help would be appreciated in this regard.

How to filter on the grid by just using a string

Hi,

I would like to know if there is a possibililty to just filter on the RadGridView by passing a string to a certain property.

I've seen that there is FilterExpressionChanged Event which has the FilterExpressionChangedEventArgs as argument and that argument has a property FilterExpression.

What I would like to have is to be able to just call this property FilterExpression so I know in a string the filter expression on the entire grid and can also pass a string to this Expression to be able to filter.

Is this possible? Or maybe a workaround?

Generating HTML snippets rather than entire documents

Hi,

We're looking at using the RichTextBox control to generate HTML elements that will appear within a page (for example, to specify a rich text product specification that will appear as part of a product information page).

When HTML is exported from the control, it is exported with large quantities of header markup and additional tags that are unnecessary for our purposes. Unfortunately, since the styles are contained within the header section, simply stripping out this superfluous content is not possible without losing the text formatting.

Is it possible to configure the HTML provider to generate in-line styles so the formatting will remain consistent when used as part of any HTML document? Additionally, is it possible to avoid additional markup (such as the classing of paragraphs and spans) when no modifications are being made to the styles in order to avoid the quantity of text generated?

I have the feeling the control is simply unsuitable for our needs, but please let me know if anyone has a solution to this.

Thanks.

BindingList bound to GridView

I have a BindingList bound to a GridView. I can make changes to the grid which are reflected back into the BindingList. The BindingList is filled from a linq result set. How do I move the changes in the BindingList back to the database?

TRACKING[] data = (from t in context.TRACKINGs

where SqlMethods.Like(t.EHT_ISO_DWG, "%02-02%")

select t).ToArray();

return new BindingList<TRACKING>(data);

The above code is what is used to fill the BindingList. The return value is the set to the DataSource property of the GridView.

Right-aligning RadMenuButtonItems in main RadMenu

I want to position three buttons at the left edge of the main RadMenu of a form. These buttons need to be created, added, and removed from the menu programmatically, via C#. Looking through this forum I found a thread advising that I manually position the buttons, and attempted that - but the RadMenu's Size field seems to be holding an incorrect value, which is quite a bit too wide and results in the buttons ending up far off the right of the form and thus not visible. I know of no other way to get the menu width. Is there something else I need to do, or some other method I could try to make this work? I am using version 2011.3.11.1116. Thanks.
