RadTreeView CustomControl loosing default Theme?

Hello!

I've build a CustomControl derived from RadTreeView and overwritten the Click method from the RadTreeView.
I want to use the default Telerik - Theme like in my other RadControls
Properties:
ThemeClassName: Telerik.WinControls.UI.*RadTreeView*,
ThemeName: ControlDefault or mostly string empty

When i use the CustomControl i loose all the default view settings of the RadTreeView.
Selection and Mouse Over etc. displayed as white.
Functionality works as expected.
I tried to copy the Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadTreeView to the ThemeClassName property of the Control.
But this doesn't work.
How can i use the default behaviour view of the RadTreeView in my CustomControl?

Thanks and kind regards

Cannot add a new item with a grid datasource implementing IList<T>

We're using a custom collection to handle the modifications to the items bound to the RadGridView. Everything's working as expected for all but adding items. We've found out that the Telerik grid is using IList<T> data sources as IList, which means that our custom collection have to implement it as well, in order to respect our logic.

When the grid is trying to add a new item to the collection, the grid calls the IList.Add(object item) instead of IList<T>.Add(T item).

The error message displayed by the grid is "The collection is read-only."

We would expect the grid to determine the proper type of the collection in the data source.

Current version (without IList implementation):

public class EntityStateCollection<T> : IList<T> where T : new()

{

#region Membres

private List<EntityState<T>> _entityStates;

private Enumerator<T> _innerEnumerator;

public event EventHandler ItemAdded;

ExpressionFormattingObject Missing From latest build?

In your documentation it demonstrates the use of the ExpressionFormattingObject, but I am unable to find the object anywhere in the Telerik.Wincontrols.UI namespace. Also references are for the 2011.2.11.831 build which is when the documentation said that it was introduced.

Any help would be appreciated...

set default sort - multiple columns, some hidden

I have a scenario where the client wants to see "assigned" employees at the top of the list. An assigned employee has multiple criteria, some of which are based on visible columns, some invisible. I want this to always be the default sort and not allow the user to change it. I also don't want to see the arrows over the visible columns.

Any help would be appreciated!

Currency Mask Question

Hi all,

I'm using several MaskedTextBoxes and have the Mask property set to "C" for currency and the MaskType set to Numeric. This works fine however I cannot seem to enter a value higher than 9.99.

I have looked for a solution online but can only find how to change the number of decimal places "C3" for example.

Is this possible? Should I be using a custom Mask of some kind?

Regards,

Guy

RibbonBar Problem with size

Hi mates,
When I try to insert into a chunk a horizontal radRibbonBarButtonGroup and a vertical radRibbonBarButtonGroup and both of these have Autosize set to false and the size property is set to a fixed size, and into these groups(radRibbonBarButtonGroup) I've added radButtonElements at design time, they also have fixed size (Width and Height), my controls (RadButtonElements and RadRibbonBarButtonGroups) sets automatically the size to 0,0 (and, of course, are disappeared) at Run Time.
I've verified in RadRibbonForm Designer code (the form that contain the RadRibbonBar), that there is no code of the size property of the controls.
Should I write the size manually into designer code? or is there another property that hide my controls (in advertently)?
Just to mention that RibbonBar will have 7 tabs with around 20 chunks.

Issue working with RadForm in MDI mode

Hi,

I'm working with RadForm in MDI Mode. I Just added a main form with IsMdiContainer = True and I added some children RadForm setting the properties MdiParent. I'm using Telerik WinForm Q2 2011.

ISSUE: When I maximize one Child RadForm, the "Maximize" icon in the top-right corner of the form doesn't change. Instead of the "Restore Down" icon, the RadForms shows always the "Maximize" icon. See the attached picture for a screenshot of this problem.

Thanks in advance,
Lorenzo
