Questions on UI for WinForms Forum

The MultiColumnComboBox currently selects the correct value in the popup when using the ENTER key. I want to achieve the same behavior with the TAB key but I haven't succeeded.

Also, if the user's text is not associated to any of the items, I want to empty the textbox so that he sees that's not a valid option.

Thanks!

Sample code :

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Windows.Forms;

using Telerik.WinControls;

using Telerik.WinControls.Data;

using Telerik.WinControls.UI;

namespace MultiColumnComboAutoSelectWithTab

{

public class RandomObject

{

public int Id { get; set; }

public string FirstStuff { get; set; }

public string SecondStuff { get; set; }

public RandomObject(int id, string first, string second)

{

this.Id = id;

this.FirstStuff = first;

this.SecondStuff = second;

}

public class Form1 : Form

{

public Form1()

{

InitializeComponent();

InitializeCustomComponent();

var lst = new List<RandomObject>();

lst.Add(new RandomObject(1, "Albert", "Stuff"));

lst.Add(new RandomObject(2, "Alphonse", "Stuff"));

this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.DataSource = lst;

}

private void InitializeCustomComponent()

{

this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.DisplayMember = "FirstStuff";

this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.ValueMember = "Id";

this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.EditorControl.Columns.Add(new GridViewTextBoxColumn("Id", "Id"));

this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.EditorControl.Columns["Id"].IsVisible = false;

this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.EditorControl.Columns.Add(new GridViewTextBoxColumn("FirstStuff", "FirstStuff"));

this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.EditorControl.Columns["FirstStuff"].HeaderText = "First stuff";

this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.EditorControl.Columns.Add(new GridViewTextBoxColumn("SecondStuff", "SecondStuff"));

this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.EditorControl.Columns["SecondStuff"].HeaderText = "SecondStuff";

this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.AutoFilter = true;

this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.DropDownStyle = RadDropDownStyle.DropDown;

this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.AutoSize = true;

this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.AutoSizeDropDownToBestFit = true;

var filter = new FilterDescriptor(this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.DisplayMember, FilterOperator.StartsWith, string.Empty);

this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.EditorControl.MasterTemplate.FilterDescriptors.Add(filter);

[Solved] GridViewMultiComboBoxColumn implementation issues

Hi there,

I'd really like to make use of the GridViewMultiComboBoxColumn but I'm finding a few problems.

I have the DataSource property of the column bound to a collection of business objects. That object has all sorts of properties and I really only want to show 2 of them.

I don't see any examples of the GridViewMultiComboBoxColumn in the shipping source code (Q3 2009 SP1) however I did find a couple of posts (here and here) of others trying to do something similar and it appears I need to customize the displayed Grid in the CellBeginEdit event.

A funny implementation detail of this is that since that event gets called everytime the user clicks on a row, I now need to add some class variable to determine if I've customized the grid otherwise the columns I add programmatically get added over and over... overlooking that for the moment here's my questions.

Question 1: My first issue is that when I click on the cell with the GridViewMultiComboBoxColumn, it suddenly shows me a Type name 'Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewDataRowInfo' instead of the DisplayMember. Here's a screenshot.

Question 1.1: As a side note, why must a click twice in the cell to get the drop down to display?

Question 2: My second issue is that when it displays the Grid, even though I've told it to only display 2 columns, it still makes space for all the properties. Why is this? It doesn't seem to matter if I call BestFitColumns(). Here's a screenshot.

I've uploaded my source code here for you to see.

[Solved] Highlight node based on raddock document selection

Hi Telerik

I'm trying to create a standout highlight in a treeview to indicate which document in a raddock has been selected. I have created a Custom document with a DocumentNode property which points to the node in the tree which relates to the document. I'm using the Active document changed event and a TreeViewElement.Update to attempt this. THe code works for the addition of a single document but gets stuck on the next added document and won't reformat the appropriate node when I change from one document to the other by clicking on the document window tab.

The key code snippets are below:
In Active Document changed

tvMPWorkspace.TreeViewElement.Update(RadTreeViewElement.UpdateActions.StateChanged);

In Node Formatting event

if (rDockModelPackage.DocumentManager.ActiveDocument != null && ((RadCustomDocumentWindow)rDockModelPackage.DocumentManager.ActiveDocument).DocumentNode == e.Node)

{

e.NodeElement.BackColor = Color.PaleGoldenrod;

}

else

{

e.NodeElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.BackColorProperty, Telerik.WinControls.ValueResetFlags.Local);

}

As usual, all help gratefully received
Regards
Ian

2011 Q2 Treeview - Drag Drop not working?

Is there something broken about dragdrop in Q2 treeview?
I have a treeview where I have enabled 'AllowDragDrop' and 'AllowDrop'. However, the 'ItemDrag', 'DragStarted' and 'DragStarting' events aren't firing all all.

Is there something I'm doing wrong? The documentation makes it look easy!
I'm basically wanting to detect when a node from the first treeview is dragged into the second treeview.

Thanks,
Richard.
