Hi,

Just want to ask if why the value of my RadMaskedTextBox is always reset to current date when ever I clicked or the cursor is on the said field.

Scenario is the RadMaskedTextBox is populated during the Load_Form event and whenever I click or put the cursor on the said field, it would reset the value to current day. Example is when the loaded data is 04/04/1980, and when I click or put the cursor on the said field, it would reset to current date, which is 06/03/2008.

Hoping for your swift reply.

Regards,
Jhun

Shortcuts Issue

Hi, I assigned the shortcut of Ctrl + S to a btn_save_Click, and it works most of the time. However, when I run a child window, press Ctrl + S while the child has focus, and return to the parent form, the shortcut no longer works.

Thanks in advance.

Zooming On Y-axis and Vertical Line

hi,

I want to Zoom the chart along the Y-axis.

Ex:-

http://www.smartmoney.com/eqsnaps/index.cfm?story=charting&symbol=IBM

open the above link.
In that one When the user clicks on the chart and drags along X-axis, it is zooming that part. But I want to Zoom it along Y-axis (i.e when the user clicks on the Y-axis and drags the cursor, we have to zoom the chart along Y-Axis.)

One more thing is, It is showing one vertical line for all the charts.
I have charts one above the other(for all date on X-axis).
Instead of that one I want one fixed vertical line, it should have to pass through all the charts.
suppose I have a combo box. I will select one particular range in that combo box. i have to highlight that particular range data items with one vertical line
(i.e That vertical line should have to be expand, and should have to cover the data items of the combobox selected dates range).

Thanks and Regards,
chandra

Formatting problem with Grouping on Q3 2007 SP1

First of all, yes we are using Q3 2007 SP1 because we don't dare upgrade at this late point in our development.

Secondly, I have no posted screenshots yet because I am hoping this is a known issue.

Basically, we have a grid with one level of grouping and a theme applied.. everything works pefectly.. except if we scroll up and down on the grid really fast using the mouse wheel, suddenly cells start to lose their style, reverting back to the default font and color.

Using RadControlSpy confirms the cells are losing all custom styling.

Is this a known issue? If not I can create an example to upload.

Thanks,

Smooth Hide/Show of DockPanels

Hello,

my DockingManager has about 10 DockPanels, which the user can Show / Hide at runtime with a set of given presets.
So at times I need to hide 3 panels and show 3 other panels. Right now this looks ugly as the panels one by one start to show / hide and all the other panels adjust their sizes again and again.

I tried to avoid that with SuspendLayout and ResumeLayout (both of the Panels and the DockingManager) without success.

Is there a way to make this an "atomic operation" so the change goes smoother?

Greetings

Drag Item out of TreeView

I want to support dragging a RadTreeNode out of a TreeView, but do not want to allow users to drag and drop nodes between other nodes in the same tree.

    
            this.radTreeView1.ItemDrag += new RadTreeView.ItemDragHandler(radTreeView1_ItemDrag);  
        
            RadTreeNode draggingItem = e.Node;  
        
                        if (GetTagValue(draggingItem.Tag.ToString(), "Type") == "Document")  
        
                        {  
        
                            DataObject dragData = GetDragDropFile(draggingItem);  
        
                            if (dragData != null)  
        
                            {  
        
                                this.DoDragDrop(dragData, DragDropEffects.Copy);  
        
                            }  
        
                            else 
        
                            {  
        
                                MessageBox.Show("There was a problem with this file.  Please check to make sure you have access, and that you have recently refreshed the Outlook View.", "Error...", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error);  
        
                            }  
        
                        }

The above code works great as long as I have the AllowDragDrop enabled on the treeview, but then again, it causes problems with nodes being able to be dragged around.

Any help would be appreciated.

RadForm shape and standard buttons

Hi Telerik,

I changed the form of my application to inherit from RadForm which results into a nice rad-form in the design-view. it automatically puts a title-bar onto it, which is fine too.

(1) BUT the shape of the form is suppossed to be slightly round around the edges. I am acutally just missing the bit of black drawing aorund the edges, which just isnt there and causes it to look a bit unfinished in my opinion. any advice how to improve this?

(2) I tried to disable the maximise button. It gets greyed out, when I am disabeling it, but thats it. It still works when running the application. Any idea how to do achive this?

thank you

best regards

Christian

drag manager?

What I am trying to do is simply drag a control (in this case a button). To be more specific, the button (or element) should represent a "glyph" so when I start to drag it, the button stays where it is, but an slightly tranparent copy of it is dragged to give feedback of what you are dragging. Exactly like what happens when you drag a column in a gridview to the columns grouping dock.

From what I have read, the Dragmanager is what I need to use? The documenation on this is in the dry style of API documenation that show nothing about how to actually USE it.

I can handle the lower level details of the data being dropped (I hope), but first I have to just do the dragging with feedback.

Any help on this would be appreciated since I have spent the last couple of hours SCOURING this site and the net (which brings me to this site), for an answer/example of how to go about this.
