Is it possible to use the RadRepeat button to scroll a RadPanel or any controls that have the standard scrolling functionality: Grid, ListBox.

I have a touchscreen application and need the scroll bar buttons to be oversized.

Buttons, RadioButton, CheckBox, etc

Reminder Pop Up

Hi. I am using the 2009.3.1401.35 version of telerik controls and I am trying to add a reminder to the scheduler which appears that it's not supported in this version. Is there any turn around for this issue?

Thank you very much for your help.

Problem with visible/invisible ToolWindow in RadDock with SaveLayout

Good morning.
I have found something strange in the behavior of your RadDock control. I create a simple test project: a Windows Form Application with one RadMenu and one RadDock. In the RadDock I add a new ToolWindow to the left, in the RadMenu I add only one MenuItem. Here's the code (Visual Basic Express 2008 in a Windows XP SP3 environment, Telerik RadControls WinForms Q3 2010):

Imports Telerik.WinControls.UI.Docking

Public Class Form1

Private file As String = "a.xml"

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

Me.Visible = False

If (System.IO.File.Exists(file)) Then RadDock1.LoadFromXml(file)

RadDock1.Visible = False

Me.Visible = True

End Sub

Private Sub Form1_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing

RadDock1.SaveToXml(file)

End Sub

Private Sub RadMenuItem1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles RadMenuItem1.Click

Static flag As Boolean

If flag Then

RadDock1.Visible = False

Else

RadDock1.Visible = True

End If

flag = Not flag

End Sub

End Class

Now do the following:
1. Run the project.
2. Clik on the RadMenuItem1.
3. Set the ToolWindow Floating.
4. Close the form.
5. Run the project again: the ToolWindow is visible even if the RadDock control isn't.
How can I hide floating windows on startup? And make them visible again when RadDock1.Visible = True?

Thank you very much
Gianfranco

Space between two RadButtonElement in a RibbonGroup

Hello, this is a quick one: I need to increase space between two RadButtonElement inside a Ribbon group. The screen shot explains more. Is there a possibility?

Secondly, What controls the overall Ribbon's height? can I make it slightly less taller?

Assigning multiple DropDownLists

This is probably going to seem pretty easy to some of you but I haven't been able to determine what the cause of this problem is. If I try to set a RadListDataItem object and add that object to multiple DropDownList controls it doesn't work. For instance, I have a simple For/Next loop that enumerates a list of COM ports. Seems to me that I should be able to do a simple loop and add the items as shown below but it doesn't work. Only one of the DropDownLists gets the data. I'm sure it has something to do with the way the control is handling the dataitem objects. I'm hoping someone can explain it to me and give a work around other than creating two For/Next loops (one for each DropDownList).

Thanks!

For i As Integer = 0 To 9

Dim oItem As New RadListDataItem

oItem.Text = "COM" & i

oItem.Value = "COM" & i

rddReceiveCOM.Items.Add(oItem)

rddSendCOM.Items.Add(oItem)

oItem = Nothing

Next

+ - does not display when new row is added.

I have a RadGridView bound to a DataTable. When I add a new rows of data to the DataTable, they parent row in the hierarchy does not display the expand / contract graphic by default. It does appear after I click on the RadGridView however. I tried using:
this.radGridView.Invalidate();
to force a redraw but it does not work.

[Update]
Attached is a screenshot. The top image represents the grid when row is added to datatable, the bottom image represents the grid when the user selects a cell from the grid.

Problem with GridView sorting on date column.

I have some dates in a Rad GridView. I can never get to sort them in the correct order. I clicked on the property builder and set the sort order as Desecending for that particular date column. Is this a problem everyone face or any thing else needs to be done. How do we add a sort expression for a rad grid in winforms. I am using Q3 SP 2010. Thanks a lot for your help.
