Adding Checkbox

How hard is it to add a checkbox to a gridview? I'm using the trial version to test to see how I can add a checkbox and how to handel the event. Using .net's grid is very slow and choppy when i'm scrolling around.

Thank You

Prevent Child Docking

Is there anyway to keep dock panels from from docking inside of other dock panels. I only want the panels to be able to be docked inside of the dock manager.

grouping behaviour and API changed in 2009.1?

My App uses interactive grouping. What used to work with 2008.3 now throws exceptions. I could not find any docs to this new behaviour. In particular I'm adding aggregate functions dynamically when the user changes grouping configuration

Is it possible to dock panel to the right?

I have a tabbed document + two dock panels, one docked to the left and one autohidden to the right.

When the autohidden panel opens it is displayed nicely to the right, but when I press the pin it moves to the left. I would like it to stay on the right, but I haven't found a way to do so, so I hope someone can enlighten me

DropDownItemClicked

Hi!

I have to evaluate your product. Now there is a problem with radDropDownButtonElement .
I have a radDropDownButtonElement in my toolstrip! I filled the radDropDownButtonElement with three Items (RadMenuItems).
So if one of these Item is clicked I have to make something. So I thought I have to implement the DropDownItemClicked event! But this event doesn't fire! Could you tell me why? And how should I make it?

Thank you for supporting me!

Dynamically adding Checkbox within DataGridView

I'm using the code from the help to create a Checkbox within my datagridview

    
                 GridViewCheckBoxColumn checkBoxColumn = new GridViewCheckBoxColumn();  
        
                  checkBoxColumn.DataType = typeof(int);  
        
                  checkBoxColumn.UniqueName = "Selected";  
        
                  checkBoxColumn.FieldName = "Selected";  
        
                  checkBoxColumn.HeaderText = "";  
        
                  radGVTables.MasterGridViewTemplate.Columns.Add(checkBoxColumn);

Then I set the data souce equal to my oracle query. The first time around it's fine but when I make a change to one of the drop downs the data changes so I remove this column and readd it but it keeps adding it to the end of the grid instead of position zero like I need it to be. What is the best way around this?

Also why when I rebind to my datagridview does the checkbox still stay checked? Do I have to remove and readd the column everytime?

Thank You

Display Issues with a SplitButtonElement in a RadRibbonBar - 2009.1

Greetings Telerik!

Thanks for posting the 2009v1 update. It looks like we're many steps closer towards getting my ribbon bar working as I'd hoped! There is still one issue I'm having with 2009v1, though, although there appears to be a straightforward workaround.

The common issue seems to be that if you have a RadSplitButtonElement inside a RadRibbonBarButtonGroup (as it has to be), and the SplitButtonElement's DisplayStyle property is set to either Text or TextAndImage (ie text is display, one way or another) and the ArrowPosition property is set to Bottom (all a pretty common combination), then the button displays incorrectly. The main body of the button appears to be the right width, but the arrow's width is narrower than the button proper, and any other controls in the same group overlap the button - as if the arrow's width is used for calculating the width of the control, and not the button's width (which is the correct width).

Here are steps to reproduce:

Create a Form and drop a RadRibbonBar onto it
Add a new Tab and a Group
Inside that group, add a Horizontal Button Group
Within that button group, add a RadSplitButtonElement
Change the ArrowPosition to Bottom
Run the application

You will see the text on the button bleeding outside the edge of the group, which appears to be sized to the arrow button - which is incorrectly smaller than the button proper.

For now, there are some workarounds, to get me through (keeping ArrowPosition as Right, not using Text on the buttons or setting MinSize.Width to be greater than the button should ever need to be in order to fit its text) but I'm assuming that this may be an easy one to fix, so I thought I'd let you know... as my goal is to get flexible buttons with arrows that point down!

Alternatively, is there some basic property that I'm missing which is leading me to set this up incorrectly?

Cheers,

FRASER TUSTIAN
