I would like to use a custom icon with RadMessageBox. I see that the only overloaded calls to Show() which let you pass an icon .bmp file also require that you pass the previous window as the first parameter. I would like to use the same default window as the overloads to Show() that don't require this parameter. What can I use as the window that would give me the same results?

Fantastic work on the controls!

I have a legacy app which I was doing some updates to, so I thought I'd attach the telerik WinForms controls. I can't even express how pleased I am with the entire suite...my app looked like crap (admittedly) before. However now just by changing a few classes to inherit from Telerik and no other changes, the app looks 200% better and somehow runs faster!

Nice work guys, super happy

[Solved] GridView Column reordering problem

If I want to reorder columns in treeview, nothing happens. If I want to reorder columns in tableview, the property builder automaticaly closes. The only way reordering works is, if I first reorder columns in treeview (although it doesn't seem this does anything) and then reorder columns in tableview.

Closing an MDI Child Form

Hello,

I have forms inside document panes. The panes are created automatically for each MDI child form. I don't understand why document panes are working with form events. Isn't it logical that the little X button in the top right corner of the document pane causes the form to close? As a replacement for the normal close button of the form. If I don't want the form to close, just hide, I can always intercept the FormClosing event and cancel it, right?

The way it works now is very bad:
1) When I manually call the form Close method , the form closes, but the pane stays open. It should close as well since it is obviously not needed anymore.
2) When I click the document pane's X button it disappears, but the FormClosing/FormClosed events do not fire.

I've also read another post related to Activate and Deactivate events not firing and you say it's by design. I don't understand why it should be this way. Without the proper plumbing I have to write a lot more complicated code just to do all this basic stuff.

Can't you extend the document pane logic to support MDI child forms better? If not, is there another solution?

[Solved] Hidden items showing empty space

I have a RadComboBox displaying 70 user options (yes, it's a lot, but it's needed to replicate an electronic device that has all of these settings). To simplify the option selection for users, I'm using a second RadComboBox to allow the user to see only subsets of the 70 options in the first RadComboBox. Whether I use the Hidden or Collapsed visibility settings for the items I wish to hide, an empty space is shown in the drop-down list so the list is just as long, but mostly empty. Is this the intended behavior of the RadComboBox, or have I set this up incorrectly? Please don't tell me I supposed to load separate collections of items and have different selected item event code for each subset.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Refresh hierarchical RadGridView data

I have setup a hierarchical RadGridView with a 2 command button columns on the master rows (remove, and add new child row), and the child rows have 1 command button, remove.. When adding a new child row, a modal form is shown and after the info is filled out and saved, the gridview was completely rebound and reloaded.. The same thing occurs when I hit a remove button, except that the row is deleted.. I originally had this working in the Q3 2007 version without any problems, but in upgrading to q1 2008, my same code no longer works..

I realize my original setup was probably less than correct, and i now have the gridview setup with 2 global BindingLists.. One is bound to the mastertemplate, and the other is bound to the childtemplate.. Now when I add a new child row, I just add the proper object to the child bindinglist variable, and it automaticaly shows up in the gridview (much better!)..

The problem I am having is that when I try to remove/delete a row [bindinglist.removeat(index)], I get the following error:

"This row has been removed from a table and does not have any data. BeginEdit() will allow creation of new data in this row."

I somewhat understand that the gridview is still bound to this object somehow.. What I don't understand is how to go about correcting the issue..

Any help would be appreciated, including any suggestions for how to accomplish refreshing the data on my gridview without the bindinglists
