Hello -

I would like to prevent the user from customizing their toolbars at runtime. That is, I don't want them to be able to hide and show buttons. Can you tell me how to do this?

Thanks,

- Mike

Stock TabStrip button icons

Hello -

I'm hoping to add some standard icons to my common tab strip buttons such as Print, Save, etc. Does either Telerik or .NET provide these stock icons for me without having to embed resources in my assembly?

Thanks,

Problem of alignment

Hi,
I use Q1 2009 SP1.

I tried to set my column like this

    
                        // Percent 
        
                        GridViewDecimalColumn Percent_Column = new GridViewDecimalColumn("Percent", "Percent") 
        
                        { 
        
                            HeaderText = "Percent", 
        
                            HeaderTextAlignment = ContentAlignment.MiddleCenter, 
        
                            FormatString = "{0:N1} %", 
        
                            DataType = typeof(decimal), 
        
                            TextAlignment = ContentAlignment.MiddleRight, 
        
                            DecimalPlaces = 1, 
        
                            ThousandsSeparator = true, 
        
                            WrapText = false, 
        
                            ShowUpDownButtons = false, 
        
                            StretchVertically = false 
        
                        }; 
        
                        pRadGridView.MasterGridViewTemplate.Columns.Add(Percent_Column);

Or like this

    
                        // Percent 
        
                        GridViewDecimalColumn Percent_Column = new GridViewDecimalColumn("Percent", "Percent") 
        
                        { 
        
                            HeaderText = "Percent", 
        
                            HeaderTextAlignment = ContentAlignment.MiddleCenter, 
        
                            FormatString = "{0:N1} %", 
        
                            DataType = typeof(decimal), 
        
                            TextAlignment = ContentAlignment.MiddleRight, 
        
                            DecimalPlaces = 1, 
        
                            ThousandsSeparator = true 
        
                        }; 
        
                        pRadGridView.MasterGridViewTemplate.Columns.Add(Percent_Column);

But each time, my text in the cell is on the left. what happend?

Best regards,

Fabien

Using nested generic Lists objects for hierachical GridView

Hi,

Does anyone have an example of using a nested generic Lists to create a hierarchical grid?

If have objects like this:

  100     public class AcctCallLogHistoryDetail
  101     {
  102         internal AcctCallLogHistoryDetail()
  103         {
  104             CallLogDetail = new List<CallLog>();
  105         }
  106 
  107         public string CallLog { get; internal set; }
  108         public List<CallLog> CallLogDetail { get; internal set; }
  109     }
  110 
  111     public class AcctCallLogHistory
  112     {
  113         public int AcctNumber { get; internal set; }
  114 
  115         public List<AcctCallLogHistoryDetail> CallLogHistoryDetail { get; internal set; }
  116 
  117         internal AcctCallLogHistory()
  118         {
  119             CallLogHistoryDetail = new List<AcctCallLogHistoryDetail>();
  120         }
  121 
  122         internal void addDetail(string callLog, CallLog callLogDetail)
  123         {
  124             AcctCallLogHistoryDetail acctCallLogDetail =
  125                 (from d in CallLogHistoryDetail
  126                  where d.CallLog == callLog
  127                  select d).FirstOrDefault();
  128             if (acctCallLogDetail == null)
  129             {
  130                 acctCallLogDetail = new AcctCallLogHistoryDetail();
  131                 acctCallLogDetail.CallLog = callLog;
  132                 CallLogHistoryDetail.Add(acctCallLogDetail);
  133             }
  134             acctCallLogDetail.CallLogDetail.Add(callLogDetail);
  135         }
  136     }

I expose a property :

   95         public List<AcctCallLogHistoryDetail> AcctCallLogs
   96         {
   97             get { return _curAcctCallLogs.CallLogHistoryDetail; }
   98         }

that I use for the GridView datasource.

I'm sure it is simple. I just can't seem to get the GridView properties set.

Thanks,

Mike B.

RadPlayer demo application

I'm trying to develop my own media player based on your demo application.

I have problems with the visual part, and even though I should be focusing on funtionallity I can't let it go...

Basically I would like my contol buttons to look and behave more or less as in your demo. For now I've reused your images and your themes (MediaPlayerAnimatedBlack.xml) but it doesn't look good. Actually, in the designer it looks fine, but at runtime it looks like the images on the buttons take over and makes it a blurry mess. I've tried setting the theme property to nothing, to ContolDefault and to various other values, with no effect. I can upload screen shots to better explain, but is it possible to do so here?

Any suggestions will be appreciated!

Regards, Jill-Connie

Multicolumn Sort with Custom Sort

I am programmatically adding Sort Expressions to my RadGridViewafter I populate it with data. However, the grid is having problems sorting onmore than 2 columns. Sorting by the first two acts as expected, but once athird expression is added to the collection, it takes precedence as if it werethe 2nd place Sort Expression. The SortExpressions collection is still intactand has the expressions in the order in which I'd like them sorted, but it isnot working as expected at all.

In essence, once the first two columns are chosen to be sortedby, they should stay "frozen" while the third column sorts itselfbased on the previous two sorts. However, the third column not only sortsitself, but is rearranging some of the rows previously sorted by the secondsort expression.

This also happens when using the client side to select more than2 columns to sort by.

Some background info on my project:

- Grid is Unbound, data population happens programmatically.

- The above issue seems to only happen with columns that use acustom sort operation.

- I am using Telerik Winform versions 8.2.0.0 (Willupdating to latest will fix this?)

- Application is developed and run in Visual Studio 2008 with C#

** I will/can provide snippets of code, but I will not give you my whole application, that is beyond my allowance and unnecessary.

DataBinding and custom controls

Hello -

If I set the FieldName of a databound column, the corresponding values are displayed within the column. This is normally desirable. However, I happen to be using a custom element in that column, and the text drawn by the grid interferes with my element's visualization. If I do not set the FieldName of the column, the problem disappears. However, I then cannot sort or group the column. Is there a way for me to sort/group by a databound column without the grid displaying the value of the column in the cells?

Thanks,

- Mike
