Hi!

I have a main form that is set to contain MDI child forms.
In this form I have added a dock control and set it to auto detect mdi.
I then add mdi childs to the main form and the dock control displays them as tabs, perfect :)

But.... How can I change active tab from source code?

(I'm using 2009 Q2 SP1)

Regards

WindowState and Display Issues

I have an mdi parent and child. Both these are just RadForms.
The issue is that when the code is executed to show the mdi child, I have programatically set the WindowState of the child to Maximised.
When the child loads, the child is maximised, but the top control is cut off as if it is underneath the RadMenu.
If I then use the minimise and maximise on the actual mdi child form, then the issue correct itself. It is only when the form first loads.

[Solved] GridViewComboBoxColumn Setting SelectedIndex/Value

Scenario:

I have a list of line items for checks to be 'approved' by the CEO. He can take one of three actions. He can approve it, he can explicitly deny it, or he can choose to do nothing on it at this point.

Implementation:

I have a hierarchical GridView that properly shows everything I need. I have a single column there with 3 options " ", "approve", "deny", declared as below:

    
                        GridViewComboBoxColumn colApproved = new GridViewComboBoxColumn(); 
        
                        colApproved.FieldAlias = "Approved"; 
        
                        colApproved.FieldName = "Approved"; 
        
                        colApproved.HeaderText = "Approved"; 
        
                        colApproved.DataSource = new string[] { " ", "Approve", "Deny" };

It is then added to the MasterGridViewTemplate.

All of this is completely fine. I am able to capture 'ValueChanged' when it is changed and by testing the active editor I can determine that it's a combobox being changed... again, all of this is working and there is no problem.

Problem:

However, I have a button that I want to use to approve ALL items in the grid. So, in the button click, I loop through the rows, and then reference the proper cell, but I cannot figure out how to set the selectedIndex. I can just set a 'value' which doesn't really do what I want... here's one of the code attempts I've made:

    
                    private void btnApproveAll_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) 
        
                    { 
        
                        foreach(GridViewDataRowInfo row in this.radGridView1.MasterGridViewTemplate.Rows) 
        
                        { 
        
                            if (((Button)sender).Text == "Approve All") 
        
                            { 
        
                                row.Cells["Approved"].Value = 1; 
        
                            } 
        
                            else 
        
                            { 
        
                                row.Cells["Approved"].Value = 0; 
        
                            } 
        
                        } 
        
                       if (((Button)sender).Text == "Approve All" ) 
        
                       { 
        
                           ((Button)sender).Text = "UnApprove All" ; 
        
                       } 
        
                       else 
        
                       { 
        
                           ((Button)sender).Text = "Approve All"; 
        
                       }  
        
                    }

That code will literally set the Value to 0 or 1. I have tried casting the row.Cells["Approved"] as a GridViewComboBoxColum or GridComboBoxCellElement and in both cases it did not work.

    
            ((ComboBox)row.Cells["Approved"]).SelectedIndex = 1;

That doesn't work because you cannot convert type 'Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewCellInfo' to 'System.Windows.Forms.ComboBox'.

Surely there is an easy way to do this?

If I try to change version of dll's manually (from 2009.1.9.414 to 2009.2.9.701) - many errors appeared (actually during changing version of TelerikCommon.dll).

[Solved] Am I missing something

Maybe I am just missing something, but how can reorder the ROWS in a grid? I know that the grid doesn't support drag&drop at this time, but I can't even figure how to do it manually. At this time, I have found 2 ways to do this:

1) Remove the row and then insert at new index

2) Since my grid is unbound I can swap all the data between the rows

Is there a better way to accomplish this at this time?

Thanks,

Lee

Seperate the Windows application modules using Telerik Console

Hi there,

We have developed a Windows application which consists of many modules which has an MDI using vb.net. Every time a new patch has to be released for a particular module, we have to release the patch for entire application as it has an MDI.

I was suggested that by creating a console application (Using Telerik Controls/features) using which the MDI of Winforms application will be invoked. As a part of that console all the modules can be separated so that any release of patches in future can be released independently for that particular module.

Can anyone please explain how to create Console application(Using Telerik Controls/features) . It would be of great help if someone could please brief me on the Console using Telerik.

Thanks,
Satyajeet

Drawing Issue with RadGallery

I was looking for an example on how to create a gallery at the ribbonbar and so i looked at the telerik example ribbonbar/First Look.

Opening of the gallery looks ok and when i don't move the mouse over a gallery element the closing of the gallery looks also ok.

But when i move the mouse over a gallery element (and it is zoomed) or when i click on a gallery element then when the gallery is closing there is some part of the border left over and is not removed from the screen.

I use the Q2'09 release of the telerik controls.

Regards,

Ramius
