Tabstrip obsolete as of Q2 2010. Replaced by RadPageView

RadPageView will be the successor of RadTabStrip and RadPanelBar by providing different views over a collection of pages. Each page is a stand-alone Panel where controls may be added through the Visual Studio Designer. The control is fully customizable yet greatly optimized for both memory consumption and performance. It will offer better item sizing and spacing, as well as extended orientation modes over the other two controls. Read more in the following blog posts:

What will happen to the old controls?

The old controls will be supported for at least one year after the release of Q2 2010. Users will nevertheless be encouraged to use RadPageView since it addresses the fundamental shortcomings of the previous controls.

Is upgrading to the new controls easy?

Upgrading from the old to the new control should be easy and painless, unless you have extended the previous controls with custom functionality. If this is the case, please contact Telerik support and we will help you move to the new version. We will also try to provide an automatic upgrade tool with Q2 2010 SP1.

Videos and instructions on how to upgrade from the old versions to the new control will be posted shortly.

How do I get support for the new controls?

To get technical support, either contact Telerik support or post in the PageView Forum.

SpinEditor gets stuck when cancelling ValueChanging

I have a RadSpinEditor with the following ValueChanging event handler:

private void CrewQtyText_ValueChanging(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.ValueChangingEventArgs e)

{

foreach (Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewRowInfo row in RequiredRolesGrid.Rows)

{

if (Convert.ToInt16(row.Cells["Workgroup"].Value) > Convert.ToInt16(e.NewValue))

{

e.Cancel = true;

break;

}

if(!e.Cancel)

foreach (Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewRowInfo row in RequiredEquipGrid.Rows)

{

if (Convert.ToInt16(row.Cells["Workgroup"].Value) > Convert.ToInt16(e.NewValue))

{

e.Cancel = true;

break;

}

if (e.Cancel)

MessageBox.Show("Requirements already exist for workgroup " + e.OldValue);

}

Basically if the user has other requirements that depend on the value in the spin editor I don't want them to be allowed to change the spinner. That seems to work fine, but the buttons on the spinner get stuck once the operation has been Cancelled, and the next time that button is pressed it behaves as though it was in it's old state. For example (assuming the spinner has an integer value), I increment the spinner to 3 (#1 from screen shot). Let's say the user has a requirement that prevents them from lowering the spinner value below 2. Now I decrement the spinner twice (#2 from screen shot). The first one works, lowering the value to 2. The second click causes the operation to be canceled. Now say I increment the value to 5 (#3 from screen shot, note 'depressed' spinner button'). The NEXT time I try to decrement (just once), the value returns to 2 (#4 from screen shot), the last value that caused the operation to be cancelled. I would expect it to return to 4, 3, then 2. You can see that the down button on the spinner stays highlighted after the operation is cancelled. I know this probably sounds confusing. Please try to follow the screen shot provided, and let me know if you need more detail.

[Solved] Read Only appointments

Hi all,

Is there a way to show the appointment edit dialog in read-only when an appointment has the property AllowEdit set to false, instead of not showing the edit dialog at all.

The problem is that it isn't possible to see all the information of the appointment.

Greetings

[Solved] Mixed bound and unbound columns

Hi.

I have defined a set of columns that are bound to my BindingList<RowEntry> collection. This works like it should. I am now in the process of adding some extra columns dynamically. How do I populate these? is there a "DidNotFoundPropertyManuallySetCellData" event? :-)

RadRibbonBarButtonGroup Item Possition

Hi,

Is it possible to setup items in a RadRibbonBarButtonGroup so that when setup in Vertical orientation you can get two items on one line.

E.G.
I want to have A Label on one Line, then a Textbox and Label on the next line and then a Label

At the moment I have set the RadRibbonBarButtonGroup Orientation to Vertical but this gives me a line for each element

thanks
