number of digits

Hi,

why does RadGridView round values if I click inside a cell in a column whose underlying data type is double?

For example, one of the cell has a value of 1,234567 from a data source. If I click in the cell to edit it, and the textbox appears, I would like to see explicitly 1,234567 and not a rounded value like 1,23.

If I set a format string for that column, that's ok. Show 1,23. But not when I want to edit the value. By the way, if I set a format string to show only two digits, I will never ever know the precise value!

How can I help this behavior?

Thanks,
Tamás

Resize ShapedForm?

Is there any way to have ShapedForm resizable like a standard windows form, without adding a StatusStrip to the form? It seems the problem is that the ShapedForm has a FormBorderStyle set to None, but changing this to anything else shows the windows form titlebar.

Multiple GridViewLookUpColumns on a Grid

I have 2+ LookupColumns on a grid, and each of these have seperate datasources.

Step 1-Open the dropdown on column1. (Data displayed is column 1's data)
Step 2-Open the dropdown on column2. (Data displayed is column 1's data)

Column 1 data is showed everywhere.

If I open column 2 first, then column 2 data is shown in all dropdowns.

    
            // Setup CONTROLLER  
        
            GridViewLookUpColumn controllerLookUp = new GridViewLookUpColumn("ControllerNameDrop", "ControllerName");  
        
            controllerLookUp.HeaderText = "Controller";  
        
            controllerLookUp.Width = 100;  
        
            controllerLookUp.DataSource = this.controllerListBindingSource;  
        
            controllerLookUp.ValueMember = "ControllerName";  
        
            controllerLookUp.DisplayMember = "ControllerName";  
        
            controllerLookUp.DropDownStyle = Telerik.WinControls.RadDropDownStyle.DropDownList;  
        
            // Setup SEQUENCE  
        
            GridViewLookUpColumn sequenceLookUp = new GridViewLookUpColumn("SequenceNameDrop", "SequenceName");  
        
            sequenceLookUp.HeaderText = "Sequence";  
        
            sequenceLookUp.Width = 100;  
        
            sequenceLookUp.DataSource = this.sequenceListBindingSource;  
        
            sequenceLookUp.ValueMember = "SequenceName";  
        
            sequenceLookUp.DisplayMember = "SequenceName";  
        
            sequenceLookUp.DropDownStyle = Telerik.WinControls.RadDropDownStyle.DropDownList;

Thanks for any help!

Highlight cells or text in GridView

Hello again,
I'm using RadGridView for WinForms Q2. I want to iterate through all cells and highlight text which I am searching for.
I could live with changing the background of the found cell.
The following approch produces errors.
I would be grateful for some help. Cheers Roberto

Private Sub SearchPhraseInGrid(ByVal searchphrase As String, Optional ByVal colname1 As String = "", Optional ByVal colname2 As String = "")

Dim gv As RadGridView = Me.gvMessages
Dim col As GridViewDataColumn
Dim row As GridViewRowInfo
Dim i As Integer
For Each col In gv.Columns
For Each row In gv.Rows
If (row.Cellscol.FieldName).Value.ToString).Contains(searchphrase) = True Then

i = Me.gvMessages.Rows.IndexOf(Me.gvMessages.CurrentRow)
Me.gvMessages.CurrentRow = Me.gvMessages.Rows(i)
Me.gvMessages.MasterGridViewTemplate.CurrentColumn = Me.gvMessages.Columns(col.Index)

Me.gvMessages.GridElement.CurrentCell.BackColor = Color.Azure
End If

Next
Next

End Sub

Adding new on Tab

I am not sure if I am missing something but it appears you can mark the StandardTabKey to false and have it tab between the columns like I want but it doesnt add new rows to the grid if its on the last cell of the last row. I was wondering if there was a propert to do thsi or if I have to change it to a standard tab key and use the Keydown even to implement both the features "manually"?

If that is the case and I am not missing something, I think it might be a good feature for future releases ;) . Thanks alot for any help!
