Hello,

I have a filterable datagrid being used as a search screen by the user. When the user begins a search, we select the entry they last selected as a starting point and then set the focus to the filter text box for the first column of the grid.

As they type, we scroll to the first matching entry by hooking the FilterChanged event by executing

this.TableElement.ScrollToRow(((Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewRowInfo)(this.MasterGridViewInfo.TableFilteringRow)).ViewInfo.Rows[0]);

and it seems to work well.

1. I'd like to enhance it by actually selecting the row (IsCurrent = true) and then place the focus (cursor) back to the filter text box at the end of the text so the user can keep typing without overwriting the original filter criteria. I figured out how to do everything except placing the cursor at the end of the filter criteria text.

2. A problem did arise in using the mouse. After entering a filter and scrolling the list to the first match, using the mouse to click on an entry in the list causes the list to scroll down the screen 1 line and a blank line appears between the filter row and the first row of results.

I am using VS 2008 version 9.0.30729.1 SP, Framework 3.5 SP1, Telerik Winforms 2010.3.10.1215

Thanks,
Chet

How to move key out of the chart

Key on the right hand side of the bar chart is overlapping with the chart, I am unable to see the chart behind it. I don't know how to move key to the right so that it appears after chart is finished or make my chart less wide so that key does not overlap?

Chart (obsolete as of Q1 2013)

Visual glitch

I have a RadDropDownListElement in a Horizontal RadBibbonBarButtonGroup. I have attached the a screen-shot. You can see that the TextBox of the RadDropDownListElement is of a slight small height and thus an extra line effect is seen. Also, the TextBox is also slightly overflow-top-aligned too.. How can I fix this?

Grids: Determining where you've dropped

This has to be simple, but I'm stumped.

I want to drag and drop onto a RadGridView. I can determine the mouse position of where I have dropped:

                    Dim dropLoc As Point = grdDeliveries.PointToClient(New Point(e.X, e.Y))         

But I'm stumped as to determine which row this is as GridDataRowInfo does not give me the row index, or I can't work out how to get it.

Nor can I work out which part of the row I've dropped on. (column header, row header, cell, etc.) There is an enumeration 'GridViewHitTestType', but I can't work out how to use it. HitTest(x,y) just gives true or false.

In other words, what is the equivalent of the Windows DataGridView.HitTestInfo() within the Telerik framework?

radMenu Builder suggestion

it would be very handy if the radMenu builder had some way to move the items around in design mode, rather than saving, go to source, copy/paste items, go back to design, open radMenu Builder again...etc etc

Change text of the items in the context menu

I would like to change the text of the items

-Close
-Close All But This
-New Horizontal Tab Group
-New Vertical Tab Group

in the context menu of my document panes

I use the DockingManager with automatic MDI child detection enabled.

I just want to change it to another language, the functionality must remain the same.

Also, is it possible to remove the New Horizontal/Vertival Tab Group items?

Regards,

RadDropDownButtonElement scroll bar

Hello, I am running into an odd display issue with a dropdown element in RibbonBar. I am using the drop down to allow user to select font for text, and showing a preview of the text within drop down directly using the suggested code in following forum post (http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/winforms/ribbonbar/font-in-ribbon-bar.aspx).

While the text is showing up in the specified fonts, no scroll bar is appearing in the drop down, and the list takes up the entire height of the app. How can I get the scroll bar to appear, as well as limit the size of the list when drop down button pushed?

(as a side point, is it also possible to set the font size for each list item? Some of items the text is too small toread clearly...)

Thanks!
Justin

Dinamically changing a cell's backcolor

I'm working on a solution wich receives events that represent data from stock exchange.
I receive the data and list the quotes within the radgridview. What I want is to change the backcolor of a cell for around 500ms, to blue, if the price rises, red if it goes down and do nothing if the prices remains the same.
I have read the topics, and conditional formatting is not possible, because i don't have a static value to trigger the color change. Then I tried, as some topics suggest, changing the backcolor of the cell using the CellFormatting Event. However, when the values in the cell change, the event triggered is CellValueChanged, not CellFormatting. I was wondering if there is a way for me to raise the CellFormatting after I receive a CellValueChanged.

Thanks,

Alexandre
