Hi,

I cannot figure out how to display an image on the ToolWindow tab. This does not display the image on the tool window :

    
            using System;  
        
            using System.Collections.Generic;

            using System.Windows.Forms;  
        
            using Telerik.WinControls.UI;  
        
            using Telerik.WinControls.UI.Docking;

Horizontal Auto Scrolling Behavior on Cell Click

Hello,

I have several custom width columns in my RadGrid and when I click in a cell that is partially displayed the grid horizontally auto scrolls to bring the entire column into view. This functionality is great in most cases but when the column contains buttons it causes undesired results.

IE: Cell contains several buttons but the entire cell isn’t visible within the grid. When the user clicks the first button the grid auto scrolls, bringing the column into view, but the button click event that fires is for one of the hidden buttons instead of the button clicked. We think this is happening because the auto scrolling fires before the click event and since the mouse cursor in now on a new button after the scrolling it fires that event instead of first clicked button.

One of two solutions will work for me.

1. Either suppress the auto horizontal scrolling so the column doesn’t shift into view.

Or

2. Make sure the proper button click event fires.

How do I make either of these happen?

Regards,
Mike

Hiding chart border

I am trying to setup the charts so that only the plot area is shown and the chart has no border. I can't seem to find the correct border property. There is a border property on the chart object itself that is set to false. Is the chart border coming from the skin?

Thank you.

Best data binding strategy?

I’m developing a c# win app using RadGrid. I would preferably like to be able to use the grid property builder in design time to configure columns, dropdowns etc. On the other hand I would like to work with business objects (using EntitySpaces or similar) to access the data in SQL Server and later implement remoting or similar technologies to migrate to a true n-tier client server app. Anyone having some suggestion regarding an architecture that makes it quick and easy to build the app using RadGrids, but enough ‘future safe’ and object oriented to work in a business application?

Could Microsoft entity framework and Linq to Objects be the solution?

Regards,

Erik

ScreenTipNeeded Event Handler

Hello,

I've got a couple questions. The first is related to a ScreenTipNeeded Event Handler that I've programmatically added to all of my controls. Essentially, I'm wondering how I can determine what control has invoked the handler using the sender or eventargs variables. In my attempt below, the o variable is null...

                            void AllControls_ScreenTipNeeded(object sender, ScreenTipNeededEventArgs e)         
                    {         
                        RadOffice2007ScreenTipElement screenTip = new RadOffice2007ScreenTipElement();         
                        Control o = sender as Control;         
                        string sHelp = "This is help text for " + o.Name;         
                        screenTip.CaptionLabel.Text = string.Empty;         
                        screenTip.MainTextLabel.Text = sHelp;         
                        e.Item.ScreenTip = screenTip;         
                    }         

Second, as you may have guessed, the purpose of this is to provide help text for each of my controls on the screen. I've come up with this method of using the screentips, but I was wondering if there was a better or more standardized way for achieving this sort of thing?

Thanks!
