[Solved] How to capture Escape key before/after the RadTreeView exits the edit mode?

Hello,

Is there a way to capture the Escape key just before the RadTreeView controls exists the edit mode? We have a workflow in which a node can be added and the control is set to the edit mode, so the user is foced to update the node text. But if the user cancels editing by pressing Escape we want to remove the node and keep it if the user pressed Enter. Which we could do in the standard TreeView control by using the KeyPress event. But the RadTreeView does not fire the KeyPress event when it enters the edit mode. Is there a work around this issue or i will need to submit a feature request?

Thanks,

Grigoriy

RadPageView Minimum Height Question

I have my RadPageView control setup as ViewMode "Outlook" in my winforms C# application. In my requirement, I have a limited space to display the control (about 600px of height). When the control has more than 5 pages added, the view panel (the open area above the page selectors) is made smaller and cuts off the content. I would like to know if there is a way to enforce a minimum height on this area so that the control will automatically collapse page selectors it cannot fit in this confined space. I need about 300px of height for each page.

I have already tried setting the MinimumSize property on each RadPageViewPage. However, when I do this, the page view page "bleeds" over the top of the page selectors. I was expecting the grip to automatically resize to allow for this minimum height requirement.

Please see the screen shots from my sample application attached.

Edit:
I am using the RadPageView control from Q2 2011 SP1

Update:
I was able to achieve what I was looking for using the following code snippet and calling it from the "Initialized" and "Resized" events. I would still like to know if the control already supports this without having to write this snippet.

private void adjustPageViewGrip()

{

RadPageViewOutlookElement viewElement = (RadPageViewOutlookElement)radPageView.ViewElement;

int minHeight = 310;

int itemHeight = radPageView.SelectedPage.Item.Size.Height;

int selectedPageHeight = radPageView.SelectedPage.Height;

if (selectedPageHeight < minHeight)

{

int hide = (int)Math.Ceiling((double)(minHeight - selectedPageHeight) / (double)itemHeight);

if (hide > 0)

{

viewElement.HideItems(hide);

}

else if ((selectedPageHeight + itemHeight) >= minHeight)

{

int show = (int)Math.Floor((double)(selectedPageHeight - minHeight) / (double)itemHeight);

if (show > 0)

{

viewElement.ShowItems(show);

}

DEMOS - Code Window copy and paste loose \r\n

I was just looking at some demos, looked at code and decided to do a copy and paste to Visual Studio 2010.

I was surprised to see all of the code render onto ONE LINE.

Using JustCode Reformat -- semi-fixed it... at least until the first comment line... repeated until the code was across.

It would be nice to have:

Copy Code button on the demo page... which keeps the formatting...
Have the ability to copy selections while retaining formats.

Thanks!

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

[Solved] 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
