Hi there!

I'm using the RadControls for Winforms Version 2008.3 1105 Trial release under Windows Vista Business Premium, facing the following problem:

If I have more than one tabbed documents (Tool Windows) in a DockingManger and I'm switching between the different tabs (by clicking the tab header or using the "documents" pull down menu in the docking manager) I'm no more able to activate some windows, one of them wins and stays active all the time.

You can easily reproduce this behavior in the RadDock -> Tabbed Document sample in the RadControl for Winforms Example application provided with the trial. Lauch the Tabbed Document sample and click through the tabs from left to right. After you did activate one of the two "Document Windows" no one of the two "Tool Windows" will be shown anymore, even if the log says they have been activated.

I'm quite shure this was not the case in the previous release.

Are you able to confirm (and to solve) this problem? This would be great especially because my company thinks about purchasing the controls if they work fine :)

Regards,
ReneMT

I encounter a strange problem,

I bind the radgridview to a bindinglist of objects,
when i have a dropdown column and i bind the valued to a bindingsource, everything works fine,

but once i add a second dropdown column, for which i setup another binding source, problem starts

lets say i have columns "A" using datasource AA to fill the dropdown
and column B using datasource BB to fill the dropdown

when i run the application, if i click on column A everything is fine.
when i run the application, if i click on column B everything is fine.
BUT if i click on column A, and i get the choices from datasource AA, and after i click on column B, the choices in column B are still the one from datasource AA.

the opposite is true too, if i first clik on column B, i get the choices from datasource BB
but once i ckink on column A i still get the choices from datasrouce BB

Thank you in advance,

Hello.

I am still using the ShapedForm, which I started with a year ago since it had better performance back then, maybe it is time to switch to the RadForm?

Anyway, the problem happens when a user has their start-menu set to "auto-hide", then they cannot access their startmenu using their mouse if the ShapedForm is maximized. Pressing the Start-key on keyboard works though.

Thankful for any help in this matter,

Hi Telerik guys :)

I found two bugs on unbound mode. Let me explain how to repeat the bugs on the code sample that I provide to you.

I'm on unbound mode, I have some group by expressions. After edit on cell, I need to update columns in the same row and the sum in the header of the group by expression.

First Bug
 On constructor, you can find :
            //this.RadGridView_Volumes.SelectionMode = GridViewSelectionMode.CellSelect;

Uncomment it and you will understand :)
Because, when you double click on the 'group by' line to collapse or expand it.... CRASH! :p

Second Bug
on CellEndEdit event, look at :
            this.RadGridView_Volumes.SuspendLayout();
            this.RadGridView_Volumes.GridElement.BeginUpdate();

            // Update something... anyway the problem is not here :)

            this.RadGridView_Volumes.GridElement.EndUpdate();
            // Second bug
            //this.RadGridView_Volumes.MasterGridViewTemplate.BestFitColumns();
            this.RadGridView_Volumes.ResumeLayout();

Go on Value column and just begin edit of a cell. Click on other cell and application will crash. (uncomment line before)



The best fit columns provoque an error on BaseGridBehavior.
function : SetCurrentPosition in if (row.IsCurrent && row.RowInfo == this.GridControl.OldCurrentRow) 

why? simple,

line 1191 : protected virtual bool OnMouseDownLeft(MouseEventArgs e)
line 1218 : GridCellElement cell = this.GetCellAtPoint(elementUnderMouse);
sounds good, but cell is null. so,
            if (cell != null)
            {
                row = cell.RowElement;
            }
            else
            {
                row = this.GetRowAtPoint(elementUnderMouse); <--- comes here
            }

            bool rowChanged = false;
            if (Cursor.Current != Cursors.SizeNS)
            {
                rowChanged = SetCurrentPosition(row, cell); <-- crash on it
            }

     row is null two...



So, I'm agree with the fact that it's my own fault, because If I call the best fit after end edit, your function is not able to find cell...
but I suppose that you can add some try catch or test :)



You can use (change dll references of course), I use Q3 dll of Forms

Thanks for your efforts :)

I am trying to make a form with two UserDockControl panels on it.  The first should always be docked to the left and may be hidden or resized, but not closed.  Ideally I would like to have a minimum size on this dock so that it always looks nice and contains everything it should.  But I must be able to initialize the width so that when the form first shows up, it shows up with enough space.  The second panel will have an image displayed, so it needs to take all of the available space.

Right now on my form I am using

dockingManager.SetDock(LargeUserDockControl, DockPosition.Fill);
dockingManager.SetDock(SmallUserDockControl, DockPosition.Left);

What happens is that the LargeUserDockControl takes up too much space.  I have tried setting the size of SmallUserDockControl just about every where I can think.  I've tried changing PreferredSize, PreferredDockSize, MinSize, MinimumSize.  Any ideas?

Hi,

I'm trying to bind a list of custom objects with 3 properties: 1) TimeElapsed, 2) ActivityName, 3) ActivityType to create a Line Chart.

TimeElapsed is bound to the Y axis.
ActivityName is bound to the X axis.

Is it possible to bind/filter based on this third ActivityType property?  For example, if I just want to bind for ActivityType=Running, how would I go about doing this without manipulating my list manually.

Thanks,
JP

Hi,

When do you expect to have RTL support for all your Controls (WinForms for start)??

We have a project already and need RTL for this project because of a new customer.

Hi,

i installed the trial version of radcontrols for winforms 2008 Q3.
I have a windows server 2008 x64 and visual studio 2008 professional.

All went well (toolbox integration etc) except the fact that the installer created two folders on the c: drive.

VS2005INSTALLDIR with the templates inside
VS2005PUBASM with the asseblies.

Is this trial installer suitable for visual studio 2008 ? Or its a problem of the os?
(Maybe at the installation you are looking for environment variables for visual studio 2005 and since it cannot find them it creates the folders in c: with the names above.)

Is there any workaround to get a correct installation? (Maybe creating the paths for this variables??)

Regards,

SM

I am not able to set the forecolor of the RadCheckBox and then have it show when I run the form. I am doing this on a brand new, unmodified form with just the RadCheckBox on it.
What am I doing wrong?
What do I need to set to have the forecolor show?

Thanks, Chris
