Changing visibility of richRibbonBar Tab

Hi,

It seems to me that changing the visibility of a richRibbonBar Tab is not working.

ie:

richRibbonBar1.ShowHomeTab = false;

richRibbonBar1.ShowInsertTab = false; // ...etc

The tabs still stay visible.

Could you check this out?
Thank you,
Karl

Custom Cells

Hi,

is it possible to build a radgrid with the structure of the attached file?

I want a mix of checkboxs and labels at the same cell, except from row one which must be two labels.
I've seen a few examples of custom columns with the progress bar and a button, thus i can't get it to work.

Thanks in advance,
SF

Accept Button on ToolWindow

I have a rather complex application that has many UI components. I'm attempting to use the radDock and create a ToolWindow that has search capabilities. This ToolWindow has a RadPanel on it with RadTextBoxes for the different fields they can search. It also has a RadButton to perform the search. What I'd like to do is have it so when the user clicks in the panel or clicks in the textbox, that the AcceptButton for the form becomes the search button...

example:

private void customerSearchNumberTextBox_GotFocus(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

this.AcceptButton = customerSearchButton;

}

private void customerSearchButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

int i = 1;

}

However, this isn't working...the GotFocus event fires, and the above code is executed, but when I hit 'enter' nothing happens....the click event doesn't fire...thoughts?

Buttons, RadioButton, CheckBox, etc

KineticScrolling fires ItemMouseClick event

Hello,

I am evaluating the new ListView with kinetic scrolling and discovered a strange behavior when releasing the mouse after a kinetic scroll - the ItemMouseClick event is fired and the item is also selected. Is there some way to avoid this?

Best Regards

How do you from Floating Window access the parent radDock object?

Hi,

I am trying to allow the ability from a FloatingWindow to open a DocumentWindow in the parent form RadDock object but its null.

Here is how I am doing it as a Docked ToolWindow, but it changes to FloatingWindow when I undock it and the parentform of that is now null.

string itemName = rows[0].GetProperty("Name").ToString();

DocumentWindow documentTop = new DocumentWindow();
documentTop.Text = itemName;
documentTop.DocumentButtons = DocumentStripButtons.All;

//dosnt want to add a document because I cannot find the Form that opened this.

if (this.ParentForm is FloatingWindow)
{
//todo: find a way to call the DockManager and add a new document.
}

//this works only when the ToolWindow object is Docked.
if (this.ParentForm is RadRibbonForm1)
{
((RadRibbonForm1)this.ParentForm).radDock1.AddDocument(documentTop);
}

Any Assistance would be helpful.
Thanks,
RK.

Single Control with DockStyle.Fill in ToolWindow or DocumentWindow Doesn't Resize

Hello,

I have built an application that uses the Winform version of both RadDock ToolWindows and RadDock DocumentWindows inside of a RadDock container.

Each of these RadDock DockWindows has a single textbox control or custom UserControl in it, with:

singleDockedControl.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;

The problem I am having is that when I expand/maximize the entire WinForm, the DocumentWindows and ToolWindows expand nicely, but the controls inside them look "cut off" on the righthand size... a textbox with a long line of text gets cut in half, and the last half of the line of text is not visible on the containing DockWindow, even though there is lots of empty white space on the righthand side of the containing DockWindow. It appears that the textbox grows correctly, due to its Dock = DockStyle.Fill, but the righthand side of the DockWindow doesn't get repainted to show it. This problem doesn't happen when a textbox or UserControl is placed directly on a test Winform that is expanded/maximized.

Does anybody know what I can do to fix this problem?

Thank you very much in advance for your help!
