Winform controls disappearing from toolbox - Q1 2010 & vs.net 2010 RC

I have a strange issue with the Q1 2010 Winform controls and Visual Studio 2010 RC and I thought I would post in the hope that someone else has seen it and solved it.

I have just installed the Q1 controls, restarted my system and fired up Visual Studio 2010 RC.
When I open (or create a new) winform project, the Telerik tab is not present in the Toolbox.
So, I try and create a new tab, name it 'Telerik' but I get an error saying 'Tab name 'Telerik' already exists!

I next try to create a new tab, give it a different name and then add any of the Telerik controls to it. The second I try and add the controls, the tab disappears!
I'm assuming I'm having some sort of compatibility issue here?

I did before this have the Q3 2009 controls installed, but I uninstalled those first before installing Q1.
I'm running Windows 7, 64bit with the Visual Studio RC edition.

Any ideas?
Thanks, Richard.

Left aligning text boxes in a button group

I'm currently evaluating the RadRibbonBar and I've come across an issue.

I'm trying to create a stack of three fields with labels:
lblStartFreq txtStartFreq
lblEndFreq txtEndFreq
lblStepSize cboStepSize

Currently, each row is contained in a horizontal button group and the entire set of three button groups is in a single vertical button group. I couldn't find a tableLayoutPanel which would have worked better for grouping these items.

My problem is that the label text size is variable width. This is especially true in localized versions of my application. But, I'd like to have the three text boxes left aligned to the widest label.

I've tried setting the lblStartFreq.size.width property and the txtStartFreq.Location.x property but receive the following error in VS2010 each time: "Expression is a value and therefore cannot be the target of an assignment."

Either of these properties can be set on a normal .net WinForms control but and intellisense indicates that these are get/set values on the radControl versions of the controls. But they don't seem to be exposed.

Is there a different method to aligning these controls that I'm missing or is this something that the Telerik Ribbon Bar isn't capable of doing at this time?

Thanks,

Jason

3D border on DropDownButton

Is there any way to remove the 3D effect on RadDropDownButtonElement controls that are added to a RadRibbonBar? I hate the way it looks in 3D. It seems to be based on the theme as changing my theme fixes the problem; however I want the color scheme of the Office2007 theme and that is where I have this terrible 3D effect on the borders.

WinForms source not compiling

I'm trying to troubleshoot a null reference exception inside of the Telerik.GridView.dll.
I'm opening the RadControlsSource.sln and since I'm on Visual Studio 2008, I'm forced to upgrade the project.
During compile I get MSBuild errors. Here is an example:

    
            Error   10  The command ""C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\SDK\v2.0\Bin\gacutil.exe" /f /i "C:\Users\kmann\Desktop\build\RadGridView\bin\Debug\Telerik.WinControls.GridView.dll"" exited with code 1.   C:\Users\kmann\Desktop\build\copy.msbuild   7   5   RadGridView

There are 11 other errors similar to this. Any thoughts on how to fix this? I know next to nothing about MSBuild and don't know where to start for debugging it.

How to Reference Checkbox

Hi:

Let's say I have a RadGridView called RGV. There is a CheckboxColumn (uniquename = "col1"). How can I reference the check box in row 6 of that column and change the check box value under two secnario:

1. I click a button somewhere in the form, and I need to change the checkbox on row 6 to true.
2. During the RGV.CellFormatting event, I need to set the checkbox of each row to true or false based on some predetermined factor.

If I could see some VB code example on how to acheive that, I'd be grateful.

Thanks,

Justin
