Hi, I'm looking for all RadControls (in XML) for Desert Theme especially RadForm. Where can I get it?

Thank You,

Hi,

We have an application that uses a custom built CAB approach.  When a user clicks on a launcher a view is inserted into a UI region and populates.  This view is a wizardview and uses a radtabstrip to hold other views for each panel in the wizard.  The UI region that holds these views is a radpanel with a roundedrectangleshape.  The app also has a header area with launchers and picturbox (logo) in it.  This is also rounded and has a gradient background. 

The interface uses tablelayoutpanels and flowlayoutpanels extensively and initially these were causes huge headaches due to transparency and flickering.  This has been remedied as per other posts on your forums by enabled double buffering on these controls (custom inherited control double buffered tablelayoutpanel etc...).  However there is still significant slow down with painting operations which causes the screen layout to take quite a period of time to repaint.

This happens predominantly when loading the wizardview for the first time and when resizing the application window.  I have used suspendlayout and resumelayout during resize begin and resize end respectively on the form which improves the performance but doesn't have the same snappy feel that the user would expect.

Normal winforms performs a lot better than this, however I understand the complexities that are in the radcontrols (element tree) and the impact on GDI+, saying that our client is getting frustrated with us and at this stage we may have to consider other control libraries.

Any help would be appreciated.  If you wish I can open an support ticket and upload a version of the app.

I have a PanelBar with a GroupElement which further has 5 Togglebuttons as child. I want to highlight the clicked togglebutton and make others Unhighlighted.
I am using togglestate ON/OFF property but its not working, below is my sample code.

Private Sub PanelBarElement1btnToggleButtonChild1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles PanelBarElement1btnToggleButtonChild1.Click
        PanelBarElement1btnToggleButtonChild1.ToggleState = Enumerations.ToggleState.On    
        PanelBarElement1btnToggleButtonChild2.ToggleState = Enumerations.ToggleState.Off
        PanelBarElement1btnToggleButtonChild3.ToggleState = Enumerations.ToggleState.Off
        PanelBarElement1btnToggleButtonChild4.ToggleState = Enumerations.ToggleState.Off
        PanelBarElement1btnToggleButtonChild5.ToggleState = Enumerations.ToggleState.Off
End Sub

Many thanks in advance...............

Hi,

Hi,
In my form at some event I am adding a RadDateTimePickerElement to a cell of a gridview. The RadDateTimePickerElement shows date picker. However my requirement is such that I want to show only a timepicker and want to select a specific time of day. But currently it allows me to select days and not time.

Hi,

I have a windows Rad Scheduler control on my page. I want to bind this scheduler with the database. I have added some customized fields on the edit appointment dialog. I want to bind all the fields with the database including customized.

      I have tried to bind the control using SchedulerBindingDataSource but it is not binding the data with the control. I am not using AppointmentMappingInfo class. Instead of that i have created my own class that contains property like start, end, summary, description with some new customized property.

     One more thing i am not using SchedulerDataSet and AppointmentsTableAdapter, instead of that
I am using SQL dataset and adapter. I do not require Resources also.

     
    Could any one provide me the short and easy code. Its very urgent. Please HELP....

Thanks
Praveen

• If you open the Tabbed Document sample (2009 Q1).
• Drag "document2" so it breaks the document area into 2 horizontally, and drop it below
• you now have 3 documents tabbed in the top half and "document2" in the bottom half.
• "Document1" is now showing in the top half, its text is bold, however its tab is not highlighted, and as its not properly selected the close button does not work.

I am trying to develop a programatically defined hierarchical grid as the example pictured here: photohere

I want to get rid of the annoying thick orange border around the child grid, and also find a way so that the horizontal size of the child grid to be the same as the parent grid, and not extending to the right. I do not want to create a new style, but rather try to do it programmatically.

I have found a similar reference in the forum that supposedly takes care of the first problem, listed here:http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/winforms/gridview/hierarchy-child-size.aspx , but does not seem to do the trick, since the cell formating event never ends this loop.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

George
