Questions on UI for WinForms Forum

Hey guys,

I've started to use this control and have a quick question, apologies if it's addressed elsewhere on the forum but I've not found anything from reading and searching for this.

We have a requirement (for some date fields) that the user be able to enter the date with continuous entry of numbers. IE to enter a date 01/02/1999 the user should only have to tab to the field then press the keys 0-1-0-2-1-9-9-9 then tab onto the next field.

This datetimepicker, so far seems to have the same issue has the microsoft one in that to type this data in you need to hit the following keys 0-1-RightArrow-0-2-RightArrow-1-9-9-9
We have solved the issue for a particular date entry field by using our own masked text box but it would be nice to get this behaviour AND the datetimepicker in the same control.

I understand that the datetimepicker uses a RadMaskedTextBox for the text entry field, but I can't figure out how to get any control of the text entry itself

Thanks for your time,

Source code to get to UI Elements

Hi,

I'm rather new to the controls (specifically the ribbon) and I'm trying to achieve the Office 2010 look. I used that theme which turns the main application button into a dark blue folder tab. I would like to print "File" in white on this button.

I have found in the UI Elements for the control that I can set the RadApplicationMenuButtonElement.DisplayStyle to Text, change the Forecolor to white, and change the Text to "File". This appears to work in design, but when I run the application and apply the theme, it goes away.

Furthermore I need to support multiple languages, so I would like to set "File" from a language file.
Does anyone know how to get to the UI elements from source code?

Thanks.
Jason

Gridview color for selected row.

In RadGridView, I am trying the following:

1. When the row is clicked/selected, show 1 color. - Telerik grid had a default color, when i went to grid's row formatting event:

if (e.RowElement.IsSelected)
{
e.RowElement.GradientStyle = GradientStyles.Solid;
e.RowElement.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red;
e.RowElement.DrawFill = true;
}

The issue is first row is selected as default when the grid is bound, when i click any rows , the first row that is already selected still shows as selected (although multiselect is false for the grid.), how do i not select first row, if any new row is clicked?

2. Also when i select/click on the row, always the first cell is highlighted, how do i disable that?

using ConditionalFormattingObject with combined conditions

Hi

I have

Dim cResolved As New ConditionalFormattingObject("Resolved", ConditionTypes.Equal, "Resolved", "", True)
cResolved.RowForeColor = Color.DarkGreen
cResolved.CellForeColor = Color.DarkGreen
dgServices.Columns("Status").ConditionalFormattingObjectList.Add(cResolved)

And this works great. How would I add another condition to this so

"Status = Resolved" AND ResolveUser="USER"

Thanks in advance

DropDownList selected item text set incorrectly when binding a Datasource to an Anonymous type

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

private class TestClass

{

public int Id { get; set; }

public string NameVal { get; set; }

}

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

var testItem1 = new TestClass() {Id = 1, NameVal = "One"};

var testItem2 = new TestClass() {Id = 2, NameVal = "Two"};

var test = new List<TestClass>() {testItem1, testItem2};

radDropDownList1.BeginUpdate();

radDropDownList1.DataSource = (from TestClass tc in test

select new {tc.Id, tc.NameVal});

radDropDownList1.DisplayMember = "NameVal";

radDropDownList1.ValueMember = "Id";

radDropDownList1.EndUpdate();

//radDropDownList1.Text = radDropDownList1.SelectedText; //This line is not equal to the following line...

radDropDownList1.Text = radDropDownList1.SelectedItem.Text; //This line is the fix, comment out to see bug

Find by tag

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:

treeModules.DataMember = "treeNode";

treeModules.DisplayMember = "label";

treeModules.ValueMember = "id";

treeModules.ParentIDMember = "parent";

treeModules.DataSource = dsModuleXml;

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!
