Adding Telerik Win DLL web .config

Dear All,

I have a soultionunder source safe.

In that I have a web service, as well as a windows application (which uses the telerik win control 7.1.1.0).

The windows application has web service as one of its reference.

But the web service provides only the business logic and doesn't uses any of the telerik win controls.

But while building it is asking for checkout of web.config, and if it is checked out it adds the assembly to the web.config file in the <asemblies> section.

Why it is doing so?

If I add that assembly in the web .config and checks it in, then other developers got an error unable to load the assembly.

Can any one tell me how to get rid of this issue.

Planned SP schedule for 2008 Q2

Is there a further SP for 2008 Q2 planned?

Will the unusable master/detail editing in GridView be fixed in Q3?

I'm currently working on a prototype that I would like to release to a broader public for usability tests - the question is should I wait for an SP/Q3 or should I implement work-arounds.

regards
erwin

Grid Features (Self referencing hierarchy and Column sets)

Greetings!

I have been using the Telerik ASP.NET stuff for some time, and have been fiddling around with the Silverlight and for those two, I say two thumbs up!

Recently I have been taking more than a cursory peek at the WinForms controls, because of an ongoing project where I had wanted to use them, and I can't seem to manage to find how to set the grid to self referencing hierarchy.

The data is fairly simple, just a dummy class with an Id and a ParentId:

                        public class SelfRefTest         
                {         
                    public int Id { get; set; }         
                    public int? ParentId { get; set; }         
                    public string Text { get; set; }         
                    public string Text2 { get; set; }         
                    public string Text3 { get; set; }         
                }         

Which should be bound and displayed like this...

Self referencing data demo

The second scenario is Column Sets, where I could stack columns ontop of each other in a complex layout, like this...

Column Set demo

Are these two highly valuable and highly desirable features (nudge, nudge, hint, hint) not supported, or am I missing something?

AutoGenerateHierarchy - Expand ChildRelation horizontaly

Hi there.

I generate a GridView from a DataSet that contains two related tables. The relation between the two is intepreted by

GridView.AutoGenerateHierarchy = true;

All of this works like a charm. The only issue is that I don´t know how to make the hierarchical child stretch columns to full width. Although the Grid itself stretches to full width, the child relation does not inherit this and the colums are too narrow.

Put simple - How to stretch child colums to the full width? Everything is generated programmatically from DataSets.

Please also the screenshot in the thread below...

Thanks!

[Solved] GridViewComboBoxColumn - How to set DropDownSizingMode?

Hi!

I'm writing an app that uses a RadGridView for massive data input. Some of the values are chosen from combo box columns.

I've tried using a cast to (RadComboBoxItem) of the default editor of the columns to set the DropDownSizingMode, but to no avail...

This would be great for me as the user sometimes can not see the fullness of the descriptions in the dropdown...

Is this possible to be achieved?

Thanks!!

MultiColumn combo suggestions

I have following suggestions regarding multicolumn combo. I'm sure you're already in process of implementing some of them.

auto-complete functionality is vital for this control
when user selects value (or writes down value, which is in the list), when dropdown is opened, displayed list (grid) should have row with that value selected. This behavior is in RadComboBox and it's very important in multi column combo too.
there is BestFitColumns() function which adjusts width of columns but something that would adjust dropdown width according to width of columns is lacking and would help.
there is one annoying thing - when you click on dropdown button of combo (that arrow which displays dropdown) when you are in process of validation of some control (you didn't validate control in Validating event handler by setting e.Cancel = true), multicolumn combo dropdown is still displayed. I'll submit this as a bug too, because it is causing me problems and is not expected behavior (nor standard .NET combobox control behaves this way).

I hope my input will help something and I'm looking forward to seeing this new control evolve.

Best regards,
Daniel
