OnPaint

Hi,

I wonder if it is by design that OnPaint is called even if the DocumentPanel is not visible. Works fine on the tabstrip control.

Take a look at this samples:

OnPaint Tab VS Docking

SelectIndexChanging

Hi,

Is there a way to supress the choosing of an item?

What I need is a readonly combobox, but I want all the functionality available since the items have descriptions and I would like the user to explore the posibilities but not be able to change them.

Thanks,

- jorge

RadChart Range

Hi, I would like to know how can I set a range data on my Chart, I need it starts at value 2 on X and finish at 20 and starts at 13 on Y and finish at 31.
No mather how many series I add they are in this range.
So I read that doing this on codebehind the graph will automatically do it so
I tried it but I can´t figure out how to add X and Y Values, the function
chartSeries.AddItem only allows me to put one Value but I nee to put both.

Thank you

VB examples are not compiling

Is there something I just don't know about VS or has anyone else run across this problem?

C# is a language that is case Senstive, while VB is not. In C# you can have a property name foo and a getter Setter name Foo and there is no problem. In VB8 however, this is illegal.

Usually private variable might be named _foo and the getter/setter is is Foo(or foo).

Am I daft? What am I missing? I have been through the .chm example and now the online version as well and they both show vb code that will not compile due to the reason I am talking about.

Here is an excerpt from the help file this WILL NOT COMPILE under VB unless panelElement is named something like _panelElement . Is Telerik missing this point or am I ingorant of something?

    
                    Private panelElement As MyPanelElement 
        
                    Public Sub New() 
        
                        Me.UseNewLayoutSystem = True 
        
                        Me.AutoSize = True 
        
                    End Sub 
        
                    Public ReadOnly Property PanelElement() As MyPanelElement 
        
                        Get 
        
                            Return Me.panelElement 
        
                        End Get 
        
                    End Property

Menu hide & seek????

I'm using VS 2008 with Q1 2008. I have an empty for, I drop menu on it, spend a few minutes getting all my menu items setup, run the project to make sure things look all pretty.... noooo menu! Repeat this process over and over and over. What's going on with this? I don't even have to run the program, jsut add the menu, save the form, close the form, re-open it, the menu is visibly gone! run the program, theres no menu... however if you hit the alt key, use the arrow keys, all the sub items show up but still no menu is visible! I've looked at everything I could think of...height, index, visible.... your turn....

nevermind.... just seen a post regarding this

Menu

[Solved] AddNodeByPath

Hello,

I've a question about the AddNodeByPath method.

I get an array with the following content (datatype is string)

Switzerland
Switzerland/Bern
Switzerland/Zurich
Switzerland/Zurich/Bulach
Switzerland/Zurich/Bulach/Opfikon
Switzerland/Zurich/Uster
...

And I'd have the following hirarchie:

-Switzerland
|-Bern
|-Zurich
|-Bulach
|-Opfikon
|-Uster

But when I use this code I get some other structure:

foreach (string city in cities)
{
radTreeView1.addNodeByPath(city, "/");
}

Can you help me to give an easy solution for that? I don't want to solve it by recursion and other more complex algorithms.

Thank you in advance
Danny Meier

Telerik Reporting installation failure

Trying to install Telerik Reporting Q3 2007 SP1

I get prompted for DB login credentials

(local)\SQLExpress with windows authentication

I receive following error:
Error 27502: Could not connect to Microsoft SQL Server '(local)\SQLExpress'. Cannot generate SSPI context(0)

I have tried several variations, connecting to the sql server 2005 developer edition installed, using machine name, localhost, etc. All connections work using Visaul Studio and SQL management studio. I also get successful application connectivity. The only connectivity that is failing is Telerik Reporting installtion. Please advise.
