Radribbonform not part of Trial version?

Hey Telerik,
Your controls are great.

My group is working with the telerik controls trial version before our official release, and I was wondering if you could tell me how to add the radribbonform and other custom templates described in the KB articles you've referenced in other posts pointing here:
http://www.telerik.com/support/kb/winforms/form/adding-radribbonform.aspx
I have been unable to locate the zip files the KB article references to add to the solution. They don't seem to be anywhere on my machine after the latest trial installation.

Thanks very kindly for your time,
Jim

Windows XP 64 bit

I developed an app using the winforms controls that works on XP 32bit but not xp 64 bit. Has anyone had any success with running Telerik winforms on an XP 64bit platform OS?

radCalendar.RangeMaxDate defaults to 12/30/2099

Hello all. I have downloaded the trial controls and have been playing with them.
First of all, let me say that I really like how well thought out and thorough the controls are.
Keep up the great work.

I also just noticed a very small thing "bug" (or at least a cosmetic problem).
When I drop a new RadCalendar control on a form, the default value
of the RangeMaxDate property is "12/30/2099".

It really does not make any difference, but since December has 31 days,
a nicer default would be 12/31/2099.

Thanks and good luck...

Pause user from Closing multiple docks

I have an issue with the dock command.Name="close".
If the user clicks the close button quickly on multiple docks, it will not have enough time to finish the process before skiping on over to the next dock. How can I prevent the user from clicking the close button or make the sub finish on process before starting another.

Thank you
Bobby

Set label for chartSeries

Hello,

actually I try to add a label to a chartSeries... is this possible?

I can do this for an item - but I don't succeed for my Series (Pie)...

If this is not possible - can you tell me how to change the border color of the legend items?
When I add chartSeries to my chart, every legend item gets the same border and fill color. So I can't see to which chartSeries the legend item belongs.

Thank you

Best regards.

[Solved] Another problem with themes

...i'm sorry, but i have another problem with GridView and themes:

I created a theme file based on the Vista Telerik Theme using Visual Style Builder. I only modified some colors in the element tree of the GridTableHeaderRowElement and saved the new theme as xml-File. Adding the file to the project as ressource and selecting the new theme for the grid works fine and the modifications are displayed correct.

Problem: now the appearance of the grid scroll bars is also different from the Vista Telerik theme, although i didn't make any changes in the RadScrollBarElement. The color gradient goes from gray to white instead of gray to black and the scroll bar elements aren't "rounded" any more.

Tried to create the theme file again, but the same issue.

Best regards,
Martin

Change grid view row color in windows application

Hi,

I am trying to use the RAD grid view for winform. What i need is to change the color as the user moves the mouse over the rows.
I.e. A row should change its color when user hovers the mouse and as the user leaves the mouse from this row, it should again change color. This is very critical for me so any help will be appreciated.

Add New Row Position

I'm asking if there is any way to have not only positioning at the bottom of the adding new row section, but also making this row always visible when i'm scrolling the table.
In other words, I know the way to positioning at the bottom the adding new row section (gridToConfigure.MasterGridViewTemplate.AddNewRowPosition = PinnedRowPosition.Bottom;)
But I'm trying to avoid the need to scroll when I have many rows on my table and I want to add a new row.
Can anyone help me please?
Thanks in advance, regards

help with heirarchical grid

I just downloaded the trial and I'm trying to display heirarchical data. I've gone through the examples but no luck. The best I can do is display the master row with the plus sign but when I click the plus sign I don't see the details.

I'm using a stored procedure to populate my dataset. It returns two tables. Table[0] is the master and Table[1] is the detail.

I've tried the following two examples. Any help would be apprecieated.

Example 1.

dataAdapter.Fill(myDataSet);

myDataSet.Tables[0].TableName = "workorder";
myDataSet.Tables[1].TableName = "details";

DataRelation dr = new DataRelation("workorders",
myDataSet.Tables[0].Columns["WorkOrderId"],
myDataSet.Tables[1].Columns["WorkOrderId"]);
DataSet.Relations.Add(dr);

radGridView1.AutoGenerateHierarchy = true;
radGridView1.DataSource = myDataSet;
radGridView1.DataMember = "workorder";

Example 2.

radGridView1.DataSource = myDataSet.Tables[0];

GridViewTemplate template = new GridViewTemplate();
template.DataSource = myDataSet.Tables[1];
radGridView1.MasterGridViewTemplate.ChildGridViewTemplates.Add(template);

GridViewRelation relation = new GridViewRelation(radGridView1.MasterGridViewTemplate);
relation.ChildTemplate = template;
relation.RelationName = "workorders";
relation.ParentColumnNames.Add("WorkOrderId");
relation.ChildColumnNames.Add("WorkOrderId");
radGridView1.Relations.Add(relation);

MasterGridViewTemplate.AutoGenerateColumns incompatible with grouping?

I have been tearing my hair out trying to figure out how to get a grid to show grouped items on startup. That is, when the grid initiallly displays, it's automatically in group mode. The group panel is not visible, and the user cannot change the grid groupings.

No matter what I tried I couldn't make it work. Then, I noticed I had a line like:

myGrid.MasterGridView.AutoGenerateColumns = false;

If I remove this line -- voila, the startup mode of the grid is in group mode. It works as advertised.

Now, this is causing me other problems; namely, columns that I don't want to appear show up in the grid. So how can I get these two to happily coexist?

BTW, why can't you select AutoGenerateColumns in the designer? Seems to be missing.
