RadDateTimePicker Bad Behaviour

I've got a RadDateTimePicker bound to a BindingSource (tied to an object datasource). The minimum value property is set to 1/1/1970. First of all, when I attempt to add a new employee record (the date is a Hire Date) and the date is empty, the control will not accept keystrokes. I'm forced to drop the calendar down, select a date and then I can change it by keying in a date. I'd like my users to be able to just key in a date right away rather than having to drop the calendar down first.

Second, if I select 1/1/1970 and then change it to 5/1/2008 and tab out of the field, the value returns to 1/1/1970!! What's up with that?

I need to install a beta version of this app at a client this Friday and need an answer quick.

Thanks!

Shortcuts

Is there any more documentation other than the help file on how to use ShortCuts? I am trying to make a row of split-buttons to function as a menu, but I will need an accelerator-type hotkey to open a split button depending on a certain chord (for example, Alt-F to cause the File split-button to show its menu).

I have tried adding a shortcuts object to the form and using the Assign Shortcuts to assign Alt-I to the ActionCommand for the split button. I have also tried adding a command to the commandbindings collection on the button itself. Nothing seems to work. Any advice?

Thanks

Node Selected

I'm new to your controls so bear with me.

What is the best practice method of capturing the "after node selected" property? I can use the NodeMouseUp and that works well for the mouse but what about the up and down arrow keys? or a mouse wheel selection? or programmatically selecting one node? Is there one method that will take care of all items? I would like to have a common e.node property to work with.

Thanks

Programmatically accessing filters

Is there a way to clear the filters on the grid programmatically? I don't see how the dataview on the grid is tied to the filters. How is this accomplished?

[Solved] Help with Editing Graph Skin Programatically

I am trying to change the skin of my graph programatically. First, I use a radCarousel to select a skin. The skin name is then passed on using the following code:

    
            radChart1.Skin = e.SkinName;  
        
            radChart1.Refresh();

e.SkinName is a string of the skin name passed down from another form.

The first time I change it, the graph background changes, but nothing happens to the plot area. After that, nothing happens at all. I have debugged and found no problems with passing the value through the event, as e.SkinName still returns a valid skin name, such as "Default".

How can I implement this into my program?

Thanks in advance.

MDI Mode Activate DocumentPane

I'm trying to set up a parent form with a menu along the top, and a tabbed MDI interface on the bottom. Selecting items from the menu will create a new form if the form doesn't already exist, or select the existing form if it does.

I am running into problems on selecting/activating the existing form. I have tried activating the form object itself, I have tried finding the documentpane parent of the form and activating that.

Activating the documentpane selects the appropriate tab, but instead of showing the forms contents, it show a dark grey background. What am I missing?

Thanks!

Doc/View application

Hi all,

Im wanting to create a doc/view application, which manages toolbars, menus and windows, but I don't want to be locked down into writing everything Telerik dependent. Are there any threads on this site which demonstrates how to do this? How to write wrappers which allows the GUI toolkit to be upgraded, changed if needed.

Thanks
Justin
