Using RadMenu in an MDI Parent & Child with button menu items leaks memory

Hello,

I've got this memory leak, could you guys give an explanation/workaround? I've made the simplest test case (see below), factors for the bug to occur (that I already discovered):

- it's an MDI form situation with parent & child
- the child is maximized (the menu items are added into one menubar)
- the menu item provided by the client is a menu button
- a textbox is on the child form

TestMdiParent.cs

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.ComponentModel;

using System.Data;

using System.Drawing;

using System.Text;

using System.Windows.Forms;

using Telerik.WinControls.UI;

namespace MenuMemoryLeak

{

public partial class TestMdiParent : Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadForm

{

public TestMdiParent()

{

InitializeComponent();

}

//NOTE this stuff with the backgroundworker is just to repeatedly close/open the form, I know it's not fully correct but the bug occurs nevertheless

BackgroundWorker myWorker = new BackgroundWorker() { WorkerReportsProgress = true, WorkerSupportsCancellation = false };

TestMdiChild myMdiChild;

private void TestMdiParent_Shown(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

myWorker.DoWork += delegate

{

int count = 0;

while(true)

{

++count;

myWorker.ReportProgress(count);

System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000);

}

};

myWorker.ProgressChanged += delegate

{

if(myMdiChild != null)

{

myMdiChild.Close();

System.GC.Collect();

}

myMdiChild = new TestMdiChild() { MdiParent = this };

myMdiChild.Show();

};

myWorker.RunWorkerAsync();

}

If you call the parent MDI form and let it run a bit you should see the GDI objects increase by one each second and never get released.

If you know a solution/workaround, thanks a lot

RadGridView scrolls to end

My grid has grouping enabled. when i expand the group, and if the grid has a horizontal scrollbar, the grid automatically scrolls to the rightmost column.
Any clues as to why it could be doing this? Is there a property I can enable/disable to prevent this from happening.
Or workarounds?

Thanks
Anisha

Excel Like Filtering Crashes App When duplicate decimals exist

Hello,

We noticed the following problem with the RadGridView:

When you have Excel like filtering enabled, and you click on the filtering icon for a column that has duplicate decimal numbers, the app crashes with a message like this:

"Item has already been added. Key in dictionary: '26.7' Key being added: '26.7'"

Please find attached screenshots with grid of data and error message.

Configuration used:

Rad Controls for Win Forms 2010 Q3; WinXP, .NET 2.0, VB.NET

Here is the code that populates a test grid with data:

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

Dim rand As Random = New Random()

Dim dt As DataTable = New DataTable()

dt.Columns.Add("Pecentage", GetType(Double))

dt.Columns.Add("Price", GetType(Double))

For i As Integer = 1 To 10000

dt.Rows.Add(rand.Next(0, 100) + rand.Next(0, 100) * 0.1, rand.Next(0, 1000000))

Next

grdData.DataSource = dt

grdData.BestFitColumns()

End Sub

Thanks.

Embedding Webbrowser control in RadGridview

We are trying to implement a grid with HTML content being displayed in a column. Using Disablehtmlrendering=false does not work as we are having a lot of HTML markup that needs a control similar to the webbrowser control to display.

We are trying to use the CellFormatting Event to populate the cell with the web browser control but it seems like it only accepts RadElement controls. Are there any examples of embedding the Webbrowser control or Windows form controls or something similar in a Rad Gridview?
