Questions on UI for WinForms Forum

I'm working with RadScheduler for Winforms, still working with the 2010_1_10_504 release, and I would like more control of the Occurrences collection of the Appointment object. With Exceptions, there is an Add method. But Occurrences seems to be read-only.

I want finer-grained control of the editing capabilities I have with Occurrences. I've got a custom appointment class, am using a custom appointment factory, custom dialogs for editing appointments and recurrence rules. I am writing Occurrences to their own table, and wish to maintain them myself.

Any tips on how to achieve this objective would be much appreciated. I'm aware that I can override CreateOccurrence, but have still not reached my objective.

Update: all the occurrences of my recurring appointment show up in the scheduler. However, I have apparently not succeeded in building the Occurrences collection for a recurring appointment. The recurrence icon does not show up on the various occurrences within the scheduler.

My main point is that there is an inconsistency in the way one can populate Exceptions and Occurrences. If I could handle both the same way, the coding I'm attempting to do would be easier.

Q2 2010 SP2 Theme

I'm just wondering why the theme color scheme is so much different after Q2 2010 SP2 then it was prior to the new service pack. The color scheme of the new theme doesn't seem to match other Telerik controls as well as the previous version and because of it the scheduler seems really out of place in my UI. It's unfortunate because SP2 patched a bug that I reported, but now I can't decide if the look of the UI or implementing this new feature is more important.

Is there anyway to go back to the SP1 office 2007 (lightblue) theme in SP2?

To clarify, I think the new theme looks more polished, with the new navigation buttons, appointments, etc. But I feel as if the move from a light blue to a darker blue on the theme makes the scheduler stick out among other Telerik controls with the same theme.

Drag and Drop using the RadTreeView

Hello

I have a simple question. I have trying to implement a simple drag and drop operation from a RadTreeView node to another .NET control (in my case it is a control that represents a model diagram). I have failed so far. Can I do that with the RadTreeView control? I certainly can do with the .NET treeview control.

Thanks for your help.

Regards

TabStrip captures arrow keys, ProcessCmdKey will not override that behavior

I'm working with 2010 Q1, and I cannot override ProcessCmdKey to trap the left and right arrow key events. It will work in a form without the tabstrip, but not in a form with a tabstrip. Is this a known issue?

My project is pretty far along using this version, and converting to the new version would basically require writing a new project and copying the code over. The automatic upgrade stuff in 2010 Q2 SP1 is not appearing, probably due to the fact that my project uses Q1 dlls. Replacing those dlls with Q2 versions causes a multitude of errors to appear.

Any ideas?

thanks,

David

Stacked Column Chart with custom colors

I've got a data set that needs to be displayed as a set of stacked columns.

So far so good, now the tricky part.

The values in a given stack may belong to a different data set:

e.g.

1st value belongs to set A,

2nd value belongs to set B,

3rd value belongs to set C

4th value belongs to set B

5th value belongs to set A

If we say A is Red, B is Green, and C is Blue the stacked bars need to be

Red

Green

Blue

Green

Red

Is there any way to accomplish this?

Disabling application menu animation

Is there any way to disable the animation for all submenus in an application menu? I can't find anything in the theme builder or while editing the UI elements. In the menu animations demo there's a DropDownAnimationEnabled property, but that doesn't seem to exist anymore. I tried the following code, and it didn't work:

RadApplicationMenuDropDown ddForm = this.radApplicationMenu1.DropDownButtonElement.DropDownMenu as RadApplicationMenuDropDown;

ddForm.FadeAnimationType = FadeAnimationType.None;

[Solved] EditRecurrenceDialog

I'm supplying a translation to the radscheduler, but some of the translations need more space, especially on the editrecurrancedialog.
I already have provided a custom appointment that inherits from Telerik.WinControls.UI.Appointment successfully and provided a custom editappointmentdialog that inherits from Telerik.WinControls.UI.Scheduler.Dialogs.EditAppointmentDialog for editing.
How can i do the same for editrecurrencedialog?

I found I can inherit a form the same way as with the editappointmentdialog, but which event/property do I need to override/set to load my new editrecurrencedialog?

On a side note, I also would like to know what procedure you recomment to utilize the possibility for more than one resource. I.e. add a "More..." button behind the resource combo with it's own form? How would this affect the cmbResource when more than one resource is selected?
