Only one Custom Item column

I'm using the ListView with DetailsView layout and would like to have two "normal/text" columns and one a dropdown column.
I have tried your Custom Items example and got it working, but I dont want all columns to be custom, only (the last) one.

Is it possible to have different column types with the ListView or should I go for the Grid instead?

Regards
Kenneth

[Solved] Custom Filter Row example

Hello,

In the example "GridView / Custom Filter Row" when you search initially in the row bar nothing happens. It's requiered to push the "Apply" button at least once to make the row bar works properly.

I'd like to use this sample in my project but I don't find where the problem is.

Thanks

transparancy

Hi, the winforms toolset lists the following as a feature:

Stunning WPF-like UI with transparency, scaling and rotation

... I downloaded and installed the trial, opened VB.net 2005, and started dragging and dropping telerik winform controls on the form. They are very nice.

But I could find no way to make stunning WPF-like transparancy. How do you accomplish that? I could not readily find out from the docs or examples either.

Also the sample VB.net project with the trial download will not run and seems to have some big problems.

My scenario is I have a pretty simple form with big map on it taking up the whole form. I want to put some translucent panels on top of the map, and then some semi or non-translucent buttons, text boxes, and combo boxes, in the panels.

I am hoping that the stunning WPF-like UI with transparency that radcontrols for winforms offers will help me accomplish this - but I could use some pointers to get started.

Thanks for the help! Great looking tools by the way.

[Solved] AutoComplete Issues

Noticed an issue with the autocomplete functionality in regards to the DropDownList not selecting the item when the control loses focus when in SuppestAppend' mode. In an older Demo for the ComboBox you type the letter 'U' and 'USA' is selected and when you tab off the Index and Text fields are populated on the right hand side. In the latest demo for the DropDownList you type the letter 'U' and 'USA' is NOT selected and when you tab off the Index and Text fields are NOT populated on the right hand side plus the drop down portion of the control does not disappear. Also if the drop down portion is already displayed when a letter is first pressed, then the full list stays whilat a new list appaers with the suggested items.

Button Link

Hello,

I have a grid with dynamic columns, and for certain columns I need a button link that allows navigation to the master record related with the value (buttonlink.jpg).

For example, if colums show "Customer code", left to the customer code an arrow allows to open the form "Customer" and shows all the information related with such code.

This is the code to show the button:

Private Sub gridSELECT_CellFormatting(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.WinControls.UI.CellFormattingEventArgs) _

Handles gridSELECT.CellFormatting

e.CellElement.Image = Nothing

If e.CellElement.ColumnInfo.Name = "CardCode" AndAlso TypeOf e.CellElement.RowInfo Is GridViewDataRowInfo Then

e.CellElement.ImageAlignment = ContentAlignment.MiddleLeft

e.CellElement.Image = My.Resources.arrow_right

e.CellElement.TextImageRelation = TextImageRelation.ImageBeforeText

End If

End Sub

How can I do to catch the click in this button? Is it possible?

Capture text from combobox

Hi.

My interpretation of a combo box is, that one can either select an element from a predefined list - or just enter a value directly.

However, the GridViewComboBoxColumn seems not to work this way. I do have:

RadDropDownListEditor le = (RadDropDownListEditor)this.MasterTemplate.ActiveEditor;

RadDropDownListEditorElement ee = (RadDropDownListEditorElement)le.EditorElement;

le.DropDownStyle =

RadDropDownStyle.DropDown;

ee.AutoCompleteMode =

AutoCompleteMode.None;

But whatever entered directly in the combo box disappears when I move to next column.

Is there a way to meet my expectations so if the user enters data directly, it'd be considered text and applied to the field when the editor closes.

I need this behaviour cause sometimes data has to be selected from a list - and sometimes they should be entered directly...

[Solved] Line numbers for tree nodes

I'm planning to use the treeview as an alternative for the listview component for displaying multiple lines that can:

- indent
- selected via checkbox
- drag/drop
- image per line (node)
- collapse/group lines

All can be done with the treeview. The only thing I have on my "wishlist" is a way to number the "lines" (= nodes). Is it possible to add lines numbers to the left of the notes, just like f.e. in a code editor (all aligned on the left before the nodes)?
