[Solved] Showing Entrie Row as a TreeNode

Hi,
I want to show all field of a row of a table as a node in treeview, Header of columns must be appeared.
You suppose the RadGridView with support for showing it's data like a tree.
First row is parent of second row and this goes until end of the table.
if Telerik doesn't support this, please put a link about what I need.

Thank you,
Telerik really helps me!

RadioButton in CommandBar

Hi,

I have just upgraded my RadControls for WinForms from Q1 2010 SP1 to Q1 2011.

Since I have been using RadToolStrips in my project, I got warnings telling me to use CommandBars instead of RadToolStrip.

So, I tried switching all the RadToolStrips to CommandBars, but I noticed the only way to add RadioButtons in a CommandBar is to use CommandBarHostItem. However, I couldn't put more than 1 RadioButton in a CommandBarHostItem. I had to create 1 CommandBarHostItem for each RadioButton, and if I do it that way, multiple RadioButtons can be selected at one time, which defeated my purpose of using RadioButtons because I want only one button in a group of radio buttons can be selected at one time.

Are there any solutions for my case?

Thanks

Change color of button on the alert.

I add buttons to my alerts so that the user can take some action if they want.

I personally do not feel these buttons are easy to see. They look like text. I want something that stands out more.
How can I change the color of the button?

I tried to set the backcolor and the BorderElement.BackColor of my RadButtonElement.

Something is overriding my settings.

Combine controls into one image to load into RadCarousel

This question may belong in a different WinForms controls forum. If so, I apologize.

Ultimately, I am wanting to show a carousel full of RadGridViews, but for performance's sake I am converting the RadGridView's into RadImageItems to be loaded into the carousel.

I'd like to be able to put a label above the RadGridView as a title for the grid. So far I've tried adding a RadLabel and RadGridView to a RadItemsContainer, and then using the "GetAsBitmap" function to no avail.

RadImageItem image1 = new RadImageItem();

image1.Image = rl.RootElement.GetAsBitmap(Brushes.White, 0, new SizeF(1, 1));

rl.RootElement.GetAsBitmap(Brushes.White, 0, new SizeF(1, 1));

RadImageItem image2 = new RadImageItem();

image2.Image = grid.RootElement.GetAsBitmap(Brushes.White, 0, new SizeF(1, 1));

RadItemsContainer ric = new RadItemsContainer();

ric.Items.Add(image1);

ric.Items.Add(image2);

RadImageItem image3 = new RadImageItem();

image3.Image = ric.GetAsBitmap(Brushes.White, 0, new SizeF(1, 1));

image3.ImageKey = imageKey;

(rl = previously declared RadLabel, grid = previously declared RadGridView)

Thanks,

Rob

Formatting Summary Row while grouped

Hi All,

i have the following code to convert a integer value (seconds) to double and i wish to oput it like 00:10:15 (615 seconds) in my summary row.

Private Sub rgvWechselProtokoll_GroupSummaryEvaluate(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.WinControls.UI.GroupSummaryEvaluationEventArgs) Handles rgvWechselProtokoll.GroupSummaryEvaluate

If e.Parent Is Me.rgvWechselProtokoll.MasterTemplate Then

Dim fulltime As String

fulltime = Date.FromOADate(CDbl(e.Value) / 86400)

e.FormatString = String.Format("Gesamtzeit = {0:T}", fulltime)

End If

End Sub

This is working while m grid is not grouped.

I want to have the same formatting when grouped. Currently my code looks like this

Me.rgvWechselProtokoll.Columns.Add("Sekunden")

Me.rgvWechselProtokoll.Columns("Sekunden").IsVisible = False

Dim summaryItem As New GridViewSummaryItem()

summaryItem.Name = "Start"

summaryItem.AggregateExpression = "Sum(Sekunden)"

summaryItem.FormatString = "Gesamt = {0}"

Dim summaryRowItem As New GridViewSummaryRowItem()

summaryRowItem.Add(summaryItem)

Me.rgvWechselProtokoll.SummaryRowsBottom.Add(summaryRowItem)

so that i will see my seconds as Integer. When i change my first block to

Private Sub rgvWechselProtokoll_GroupSummaryEvaluate(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.WinControls.UI.GroupSummaryEvaluationEventArgs) Handles rgvWechselProtokoll.GroupSummaryEvaluate

If e.Parent Is Me.rgvWechselProtokoll.MasterTemplate Or IsNumeric(e.Value) Then

Dim fulltime As String

fulltime = Date.FromOADate(CDbl(e.Value) / 86400)

e.FormatString = String.Format("Gesamtzeit = {0:T}", fulltime)

End If

End Sub

then the formatting is also added when my summery value isNumeric, but this way seems just to be a workaround.

How to apply the same formatting from my first code block using Events or AggregateExpression and FormatString the correct way

Kind regards

[Solved] How to sort using hours, minutes, seconds?

Hi

I have in my object couple columns of type DateTime. I use built in functionality for sorting. On the column header user can type date. My problem is that I can define only date, hours, minutes and seconds are always zero (take a look at the screenshot).

Is there any possibility to let the user define also hours?

Regards

Annoying RibbonBar Size Issue

Hello,

In my WinForms app, I am using a RibbonBar along with a custom resizing function. Since I use a custom resizing solution, I have noticed a bug/issue with my RibbonBar. The default RibbonBar height is 141, and I can seem to change that :S. During runtime, I add a control to the RadRibbonBarChunk. This control is of a certain size so that is causes the RibbonBar to grow in height. Since I can't seem to edit the height of the RibbonBar at design time to make everything work, I have to find some way to adjust the location/size of the control below the RibbonBar that's getting affected, or find a way to force the RibbonBar's height to be greater than 141 at design time.

Any help you can give me with this problem would be wonderful!
