"Glass Table" reflection without carousel?

I want to display an image with the oh-so-popular glass table reflection, but I don't particularly want to use radCarousel since I only want to display one image at a time. Is there a way to do this in say a radPanel or other control?

Programmatically put cell into edit mode

In the Q3 2007 version, I was able to put a radgridcell into edit mode by doing this:

    
            this.radGridView1.Rows[2].IsCurrent = true;  
        
            this.radGridView1.Columns[2].IsCurrent = true;  
        
            ((GridDataCellElement)this.radGridView1.CurrentCell).BeginEdit();

But now in the Q1 2008 version, the method BeginEdit() no longer belongs to the GridDataCellElement class..

1) How can I accomplish this in the 2008 version
2) Is there somewhere on this site, or maybe in the documentation provided with the controls themselves where I might be able to find the answer to this question, and similar questions, without having to ask about it here?

RadRibbonForm cannot be Themed

I have been trying to apply a them to the RadRibbonForm but it just doesn't work!

Here is how I have been trying to do it.

Open Visual Style Builder
Select the radRibbonForm control
Modify the styles
Give it a name and save it to an xml file.
Add the xml file to the project and set it as Embedded Resource.
Add a radRibbonForm from the template to the project
Add a theme manager to the form.
Load the xml file created aboveas a resource.
Open the properties for the ribbon form
The theme I created is not in the drop down list of theme names so I type it in.
Designer doesn't change
No change at runtime either.

How do you apply a theme to the radRibbonForm?

Scroll to a row

Hello,

scrolling to a row with:

radGridView1.GridElement.ScrollToRow( rownumber );

works fine in many cases but in the following 2 cases:

case 1:
The grid contains fewer rows than it can display.
For example the grid can display 10 rows and it contains only 5 rows.
Now i add a new row which appears as last row and use the ScrollToRow(6).

What happens:
I see only one row ( my newly added row number 6 ) and on the right sight a scrollbar appears.
For me it's very confusing to see only one row when i know that there are 5 more rows.

What should happen:
All rows of the grid should be displayed, because no scrolling is necessary and no scrollbar should appear.

case 2:
The grid contains more rows than it can display and the scrolling goes to a row in the range <MaxRows - DisplayableRows, MaxRows>.
For example the grid contains 99 rows and it can display 10 rows.
Now i add a new row which appears as last row ( 100 ) and use the ScrollToRow( 100 )

What happens:
I see only one row ( my newly added row number 100 ).

What should happen:
The grid should show the rows 90 - 100.

Is it possible to solve the two cases ?

Kind Regards,

Ramius

Assign at runtime column labels

Hello,

I'm testing at this moment the grid control.
The intention of the application is that the user loads an Excel File and that the content is loaded in a gridview. This works succesfull.
The next step is that the user gets a collection of columns using a webservice. These columns are listed in a frame, sort of a multiline textbox.
The user drags and drops a such a columnname to a column of the grid. At that point I must mark this column as assigned and change the caption of the column header to the new value.

Is there solution to make this possible?
Thanks

DateTime Column in Gridview

Hello,

I'm new to Telerik controls. Currently checking trial version in order to implement in my Winform project.
I have nullable datetime that I want to update, insert through Gridiview.
If I try to type a value in a column, it wouldn't change in the bounded list (BindingList<T>). If I select in from the datetimepicker, it works OK unless the value is null. I can't update null values. I have Q3 2008 SP2 version.
I checked in the ExamplesCSVS2008 project and saw the same behaviour (Gridview Column Types form grid).
I can replace null value with DateTime.MinValue, but I want to see blank or 00/00/0000 if the bounded value is DateTime.MinValue. In any case it won't solve the manual input issue.
Any ideas how to handle this problem?

Thank you,
Tamar

Adding Image to commandColumn

I have a table like this:

<name 1> <checkbox> <button>
<name 2> <checkbox> <button>
<name 3> <checkbox> <button>
...
<name n> <checkbox> <button>

So basically with this form will be the gridView (i will add them programatically not by binding to a source)

So the question arrives here:

I use:

radGridView1.Rows.Add("name 1",true , "run");

and so on.

How can i add an image to the button? i mean to the commandCollumn? Cause i need to have the same image on each button.

PS: and also how can i add a custom structure like this:

public class MyClass{
string name;

public override ToString(){
return name;
}
}

To put it instead that single text?

Thanks a lot ;)
