Am I missing somethins?

Alt Key

I am using the Q2 2008 version of the Ribbon Bar and I can't seem to get the control to honor the Alt key. I would expect the Alt key to work as it does in Excel or Word 2007. Has this been addressed in the latest version?

Thanks,
Lee

TableLayoutPanel and Autosizing

Hi,

I'm trying to add a few Rad controls to a TableLayoutPanel. For the sake of the example, let's say I have a TLP with 1 column and 2 rows. The top row contains a RadListBox, and the bottom row contains a RadButton. The top row's size is set as Percentage (50%) and the bottom row as AutoSize.

The desired result would be that most of the control's space be filled with the RadListBox, while the RadButton be set at an appropriate size.

The actual result is that the RadListBox takes up all the room, and the RadButton appears as a tiny sliver at the bottom, barely a line. It would seem as if in run-time, the TableLayoutPanel decides to AutoSize the bottom row to a few pixels; whereas in the form designer, the button appears perfect.

What am I doing wrong? How can I get the TableLayoutPanel's AutoSizing rows to play nice with RadControls?

Thank you.

Filter Icon Overlaps text

I have the following problem with the filter row in my RadGridView control: when a column is set to align the text to the right, and a filter is applied, the text in the filter cell shows up behind the filter icon. Is there a way to keep the two from overlapping?

Thanks,
Rachel

RadPanel

Using RadControls for WinForms Q2 2007.

When Selecting "Theme Builder" on the smart tag of a RadPanel that contains other controls, the entire RadPanel disappears from the Designer! The only way to get it back it seems it to either remove all the old controls manually from the designer.cs file.... ?? Is this a known bug that I simply have to remind myself to avoid?

Multipage

Hi, Im used to work with asp.net/ajax and not winforms.

I wanna have a "header" with 4 buttons and under that a "multipage" that will be visibile hide/show dependeing on which button i click.

ListBox - RadHostControl?

I'd like to put a list box on a form that holds very complex items. I was thinking I could probably do this by creating a user control that has the layout and items I want in each list item. Then wrap that in a RadHostControl and somehow put that inside a RadListBoxItem.

I believe I'm on the right track, and if so, how exactly do I accomplish what I'm trying to do?

If I'm way off base, is there a way I can make complex list items for a listbox?

As a concrete and simple example, let's say I wanted each item in the list to have 2 labels, 2 buttons, and a textbox.

Thanks,

Alex

RadMenu and Shortcuts

I have seen the many posts on how to add shortcuts to a menu item and I understand how to do that. My problem is that I would like for the shortcut text to be left justified to the menu and the normal text to be right justified. For example:

Cut                           Ctrl + X
Copy                        Ctrl + C
Paste                       Ctrl + V
Delete                            Del

Instead, as it is now, I have to add this text to my menuitem.Text and it is not aligned

Cut      Ctrl + X
Copy      Ctrl + C
Paste      Ctrl + V
Delete      Del

This justification seems to be the standard behavior for pretty much any application that displays shortcuts on the menu. Can anyone tell me how to do this or if it is even possible?

Thanks in advance,
Lee

Menu Enhancement...

As I have stated in this thread (http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/winforms/menu/radmenu-and-shortcuts.aspx). Most applications use right justification to show the shortcuts for menu items. This seems to be a short coming of the RadMenu. I would like to suggest this as an enhancement for a future build.

Thanks,
Lee
