Questions on UI for WinForms Forum

Hello

I found that the Q1 2010 radTextBox and the radComboBox don't show text in ClearTypeGridFit even as I set it in "Edit UI elements" of each control (.NET 4.0 C# WinForm with VS2010). All other rad-controls work well with ClearTypeGridFit.

Funny enough, the radComboBox shows all items from the dropdown list in ClearTypeGridFit, but when I select an item its text is drawn without any font smoothing again.

Is there a trick to force these two resistant controls to show text in ClearTypeGridFit ?

Thx,

Andre

Close Document Window From Document Window

It seems the only way to close a document window is from the "X" on the far right of the document tab container. Is there a way to add an "X" to the tab itself?

[Solved] Custom cell element and grid scrolling problem

Hello again!

In my application, I have a radGridView control binded to database. I present production summary in it and I want to have there two progressbar columns in it. I follow the article about creating custom cell elements in CellFormat event. And everything works fine until I need to scroll data. Progressbar remain in their places and dodn't scroll with rest of the data. They seems to be over the row.

The problem is similar to this: http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/winforms/gridview/controls-are-moving-between-rows.aspx and this http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/winforms/gridview/radgridview-custom-elements-and-sorting.aspx.

But none of these solution seems to work. This is the problem causing part of my code:

1. Setting the columns from database, and adding two new columns for progress bars.

    
            private void SetMainGridColumns() 
        
                    { 
        
                        for (int i = 0; i < this.radGridViewProductionList.Columns.Count; i++) 
        
                        { 
        
                            this.radGridViewProductionList.Columns[i].IsVisible = false; 
        
                        } 
        
                        this.radGridViewProductionList.Columns["number"].IsVisible = true; 
        
                        this.radGridViewProductionList.Columns["number"].HeaderText = "Nr zamówienia"; 
        
                        this.radGridViewProductionList.Columns["numberCard"].IsVisible = true; 
        
                        this.radGridViewProductionList.Columns["numberCard"].HeaderText = "Nr karty"; 
        
                        this.radGridViewProductionList.Columns["ItemsFactoryCard"].IsVisible = true; 
        
                        this.radGridViewProductionList.Columns["ItemsFactoryCard"].HeaderText = "Produkt"; 
        
                        this.radGridViewProductionList.Columns["datePlannedRealisation"].IsVisible = true; 
        
                        this.radGridViewProductionList.Columns["datePlannedRealisation"].HeaderText = "Termin realizacji"; 
        
                        this.radGridViewProductionList.Columns.Add(new GridViewDataColumn(){UniqueName = "TimeRemaining", HeaderText = "Pozostało dni"}); 
        
                        this.radGridViewProductionList.Columns.Add(new GridViewDataColumn(){UniqueName = "Progres", HeaderText = "Postęp"}); 
        
                        this.radGridViewProductionList.MasterGridViewTemplate.AutoSizeColumnsMode = GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill; 
        
                    }

2. Cell formatiing event for first progress bar.

    
            private void radGridViewProductionList_CellFormatting(object sender, CellFormattingEventArgs e) 
        
                    { 
        
                        // exclude header element in the data column                       
        
                        if (e.CellElement.ColumnInfo is GridViewDataColumn)// && !(e.CellElement.RowElement is GridHeaderRowElement)) 
        
                        { 
        
                            GridViewDataColumn column = (GridViewDataColumn)e.CellElement.ColumnInfo; 
        
                            if (column.UniqueName == "TimeRemaining") 
        
                            { 
        
                                // check if the progress bar is already added to the cell                           
        
                                RadProgressBarElement element; 
        
                                if (e.CellElement.Children.Count > 0) 
        
                                { 
        
                                    //element = (RadProgressBarElement)e.CellElement.Children[0]; 
        
                                    //this.SetValuesToElement(e.CellElement, element); 
        
                                    return; 
        
                                } 
        
                                element = new RadProgressBarElement(); 
        
                                //int days = ((DateTime)e.CellElement.RowInfo.Cells["datePlannedRealisation"].Value - DateTime.Today).Days; 
        
                                int days = new Random().Next(0, 100);   //tymczasowo, bo dane w bazie fikcyjne i wychodza glupoty 
        
                                element.Text = days + " dni"; 
        
                                element.Minimum = 0; 
        
                                element.Maximum = 
        
                                    ((DateTime) e.CellElement.RowInfo.Cells["datePlannedRealisation"].Value - 
        
                                     (DateTime) e.CellElement.RowInfo.Cells["dateOrder"].Value).Days; 
        
                                //element.Value1 = days<0?0:days; 
        
                                element.Value1 = days > element.Maximum ? element.Maximum : days; 
        
                                element.Orientation = ProgressOrientation.Left; 
        
                                e.CellElement.Children.Add(element); 
        
                                element.StretchHorizontally = true; 
        
                                element.StretchVertically = true; 
        
                            } 
        
            }

Some elements are only because the " ill " demodata in database, but it isn't important. in the if case I try to use the one of the solution but it doesn't work or I don't understand it.

I do no enable editing, adding etc in the grid. It is only for presenting and sorting data. And the scrollinup or scrolling with handling the scrollbar by cursor made mentioned above problem.

I will be greatfull for fast reply with working solution :)

[Solved] Dock Tab style gone after Upgrade

I just upgraded to Q1 2010 SP2 and our Dock tabs have lost their old style. They were nice blue rounded rectangular tabs that matched the rest of the app before the upgrade but now they are slanted on the side, black n white, and are no longer wide enough for the text. How can I keep the upgrade but get these tabs to look as they once did? Thx...

Is Microsoft.mshtml.dll an included reference?

I am having an issue with deploying my application.

This is my first application using RadTools and the first time i've ever seen this problem.

So I was curious if the tools had this file included.

I do not have this file in my References, so I wasn't sure why its causing an error.

thanks!
