Breaking Change in 2009 Q2: names of dynamically added controls must be uniqe

Q2 throws an exception when I try to add 2 RadButtons with the same name to a RadPanel.Controls Collection.
This was possible in Q1, had to add code to generate uniqe names.

Not documented AFAIK. Please update your documentation with all the breaking changes introduced in 2009 Q2.

Kind regards
Erwin

MultiColumn Combo Box read only text

Hello,
I am using the latest version of the controls and I'd like to be able to set the text of a MultiColumn Combo Box to read only.

'm using the combo for a multi column selection so the users can see more information on a row, but the text should be read only. In your demo also it is possible to freely type into the text area.. I've had to get round it like this.. which is hardly elegant..

Private Sub ComboVatRates_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, _

ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ComboVatRates.TextChanged

Dim rowInfo As GridViewRowInfo = DirectCast(Me.ComboVatRates.EditorControl, RadGridView).SelectedRows(0)

If Not rowInfo Is Nothing Then

Me.ComboVatRates.Text = rowInfo.Cells(1).Value.ToString()

End If

End Sub

RadMenu Hot keys not working

Hello Telerik,

I am using RadMenu in my winform application and want to use hotkeys (e.g. Alt + A) for them. I try use the CommandBinding property for the menu items and use it as described on the support forum.

<admin>Obsolete Command Binding Link</admin>

The hotkey for a specific menu is only working when the mouse pointer is above it and is not working from any where else in the form (when mouse is not over it). So could you please help me in this regard and provide me with an example code for VB in VS2005.

Regards,

Haroon

GridViewNewRowInfo doesn't reflect text in non-editable cell

Hi!!

I'm noting some situation about GridViewNewRowInfo, because when CellEndEdit in first GridViewColumnComboBox column, I'm trying to put some text in a non-editable cell - 2nd column - according to index selected in first column, but text cells doesn't reflect the change (It keeps showing data text from DefaultValuesNeeded). I'm trying some like this into CellEndEdit event:

if (grdGridData.CurrentRow is GridViewNewRowInfo)
((GridViewNewRowInfo)grdGridData.CurrentRow).Cells["DESCRIPTION"].Value = "Some text...";

Thanks

Before debuging 2009 read.

So I upgraded my project and it broke right out the gate do to the radtitlebar...
So I decided to remove it and readd it thinking maybe it was a link poblem...

Everytime i go to add it to the form all i get is a nice fat:
No such property registered: Image, Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadButtomItem

Ok so I never delete my debug/release folders because I normally have resources in them that
i want and/or dont want to rebuild my entire project. Upgrading is normally very easy with the upgrade tool
and what not but sometimes you fail to forget linkage problems and spend the next hour
trying to figure out why something isn't working.

If you are having a similar problem above and Clean doesn't work shut down your project and delete
your debug/release folders reopen the project and compile it will work fine there after.

I know this is pretty simple stuff but if you are like me the simple stuff gets over looked because I tend
to think of bigger problems :)

MDI with RadForm

AutoDetectMdiChildren is work great but only for System.Windows.Forms.Form not RadForm.
I used RadForm as MdiChild and found that different from normal windows form.
The title bar of RadForm was showed in DocumentWindows, that's strange.
I changed FormBorderStyle to None but title bar still appear.

Please tell me how to use RadForm as MDI Child.

Dock with MdiChildren

i read help document and does not explain how i can use Mdichildre.

I have an application with new Q2 RadDock. (i migrate).

I create tabdocumentes

IVVSA.Solicitudes.WinForms.VSolicitudLocales frmsolicitudlocales = new IVVSA.Solicitudes.WinForms.VSolicitudLocales(((vPrincipal)this.ParentForm).Credencial);

frmsolicitudlocales.MdiParent = this.ParentForm;

frmsolicitudlocales.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;

frmsolicitudlocales.Show();

forms created like HostWindow and is into radDock1.DockWindows.ToolWindows.

Is possible set into radDock1.DockWindows.DocumentWindows?

if i have a button in form to close then not run. Close from Form not fires close from radDock.

how i do it?

I suggest about an example to do correctly these problem. Manage MdiForms in tabDocuments.

beta Response not overwhelming

Based on the traffic here, the beta does not seem to have a big response in the community.

Why? Some suggestions:

The released product feels a lot like an ongoing beta, with all the bugs that break existing functionality in each and every new release that I worked with so far. People are probably not keen on trying something that Telerik labels 'Beta'.

The beta is so buggy and incomplete, that after first sight I am reluctant to work on a version on my app using the new docking manager.
Will there be a new and feature complete beta before release of Q2? I'm afraid the Q2 will not be usable. So should we wait until SP2 or SP3 of Q2? On the other hand, if there is noone using the stuff, you will not get real bugs fixed.

The incentives of working with the beta and reporting bugs might not be attractive enough. How about giving a free one year license for everybody who reports a bug.

The most important question: are you going to maintain the present docking manager (Q1) (inkl. fixing its many bugs).

regards
Erwin
