Hey all,
My apologies if this has already been posted - I swear I couldn't find it.

Using the Q3 2011 controlls (2011.3.11.1116):
I'm binding an anonymous type to the DataSource of a radDropDownList and getting an interesting (if unwanted) result.  After the binding the first value in the list is selected (which is good), however, the text instead shows the prototyping for the anonymous type.  I feel this is best to show in code, so here's an example.

If I'm doing something wrong please let me know.  Update() and Refresh() didn't seem to fix the issue.

Thanks,
-Al

Hello,

I use the treeview of version 2011 Q1.

I use the automatic databound method to populate the nodes. The source is a dataset with a child/parent structure.
I want to keep this way of processing because it's very fast. When I populate my treeview manually the process time very slow.

This is my code:


Now I want to find a specific node by the tag property. This is not possible, because the function Find searches by name. Why is the name property empty when I use the automatic method?

Can anyone help me, thanks!

Hi,

It is possible to change Time Zone Label? By default it appears "Local" but i want to change to another string. In Scheduler picture attached, it is possible to see where is that "Local" label.

Hi,

I have the list of data on grid view with template fields.
I want to select the child rows if count is not equal to 0.
Whenever i populate the data, those child rows with count is 0 will be Hidden and IsSelected = false.
And those child rows with count is not 0 will be Visible and IsSelected = true.
My problem is the first child row to select is selected forever and unable to click.


Correct me if there are some problem with my code.
Currently using Q2

If my users can't print schedules, they will not use my product. Any advice would be helpful.

BTW - is there a list of the new features for 2011Q1?
Thanks

Custom control for telerik grid view in winforms

 In my Windows forms control library:

for MyGrid.cs (where MyGrid.cs is a component class)

public MyGrid : ` Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadGridView`

I build and i have MyGrid.dll & i have added that in my visual studio toolbox (also referenced that dll in my consuming winform app).

Consuming winform app:

1. In Form1.cs, i drag and drop that MyGrid  & i write this code:

>     MyGrid1.DataSource=ds.Table[0]; //Dataset

The grid doesn't get bound with records, whereas when i check ds `row count it has 150 records`. The grid however shows me green and white color (ie. alternating row color), but doesn't bind the data.

This is the code that consuming winform uses

       DataSet ds  = null;
       string connectionString = "Data Source=test;Initial Catalog=DBname;Integrated Security=True";
        string sql = " SELECT ID,FirstName from table1 ";
        SqlConnection connection = null;            

         connnection = new SqlConnection(connectionString);
         SqlDataAdapter dataadapter = new SqlDataAdapter(sql, connection);
         ds= new System.Data.DataSet();
         connection.Open();
         dataadapter.Fill(ds, "Table1");
         MyGrid1.DataSource = ds.Tables[0];

where MyGrid1 is the custom control that is being dragged and dropped from toolbox.

Custom control code:
                
  
            this.EnableAlternatingRowColor = true;
            this.TableElement.AlternatingRowColor  = System.Drawing.Color.Green;            
            this.MasterTemplate.AutoSizeColumnsMode = Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill;
            this.AutoGenerateColumns = true;

The telerik grid is not binding the data, however when i click on the cell, it shows me the value. Any thoughts?

I'm trying to display multiple images in a subitem that would look something like this:

<text><image> <text><image>

Example:
5<image>; 1<image>; +14<image>

Is this do-able?

Hi,
I'm trying to set a transparent background to a RadLabel and I can't find a way to do so. I have an older project that uses 2010 Q2 controls and the transparent background there works fine.

My form has a gradient background, so any solid background color of the label will look awful. I'm sure there must be a way to make it work, otherwise the label is not useful in any case that the background is not plain solid.

Thanks for any help.
Sharon.

Hi,

I have built a VSTO project for Office using the RadTreeView and Windows7 theme from Q1 2010 SP2 (not the latest I know). I have inherited from the Telerik tree so I can implement some WinAPI interfaces but I am using the RadTree base class for all my UI and setting it's theme to Windows 7 via the properties pane in VS.
Up until today I've been deploying my project succesfully via msi to all sorts of Windows/Office configurations, everything installs and runs perfectly and the tree looks excellent and performs exactly as I want.
However I've just tried to install on Windows 7 x64 running Office 2010 x64. My project loads correctly as always but when the constructor for the tree is called I get the following error on InitializeComponent() -

System.ArgumentException: Specified resource does not exist in the provided assembly.
   at Telerik.WinControls.ThemeResolutionService.LoadPackageResource(ResourceParams resourceParams, Boolean throwOnError)

Exactly the same dll works fine against Office 2010 x32 on a Windows 7 x64 OS. And indeed on every Windows Vista/XP Office2010/2007 combination I've tried so far. Only the 64 bit Windows / 64 bit Office combination gives me this.

I can't debug it, if I debug it loads fine. If I load the same dll without debugging I always get the error. Could it be something to do with timing, the order the assemblies are loaded etc? Why is the theme not available only in these circumstances?

Any ideas would be hugely appreciated, seems very strange to me,

Thanks in advance for any replies...
