I have seen meny places where is says that the radGridView control easily supports Parent/Child tables.  I have been at it all day and can't get it to work.

I have a simple dataset with two tables.  There is a relationship set up in the dataset on a single field.

Created a form that has a single GridView control.  Set the master grid view template datasource to the parent, and added a child gridview template pointing to the child.  Added a relation in Hierarchy.  Everything is set for autogenerate columns.  The parent data is showing up, but there in nothing showing up for child data under the parent rows when the expand indicator is clicked.

I know the child table has data because I can load it into an MS datagrid using the identical datasource and it displays data.

I have to be missing something here, and I am assuming that its something simple.

The tutorial for WinForms Datagrid is blank, and I can't find any sample apps that contain data in a parent/child relationship.  A little help please!?!

Hi.
Is there a way to remove the default blue bar at the top of an application using the RAD Ribbon control? I tried changing the form's FormBorderStyle to none, and that works, but it's not very attractive with no borders around the bottom and sides.

If I'm remembering correctly, Office 2007's ribbon replaces this bar.

I hope someone can point me in the right direction.

Thank you,
Jon

I recently purchased the telerik controls but nowhere can i find the radrotator or the statusstrip or the colordialog controls mentioned here for winforms.

I dont see any code samples for them in the sample app either

What am i missing ?

Hi,

again a problem with the DockingManager.
SplitterMoving fires only once - when you start dragging the splitter.

To reproduce this - and proof the "normal behaviour":
Build a windows app.
Add a DockingMager with two panels.
Add a System.Windows.Forms.SplitContainer to one of the panels.
Add a label control to the other panel.
Handle SplitterMoved for both controls (SplitContainer, PrimarySite).
Add the following code to both handlers.
--label1.Text=e.SplitX.ToString();
--label1.Refresh(); //just to be sure
Run the program and move both splitters.
With the SplitContainer you will see a "running number".
With PrimarySite - you will see ONE change of the number.
--And this shows the position where you started to drag.
--It does not change - it does not even reflect the value when you stop dragging.

Does radComboBox provide built in feature to prevent invalid input from user? I want to allow auto complete. I also want to make sure user selects valid option from the list and does not type garbage data in box.

I tried to use style "DropDownList" but then auto complete is not working.

Also when I save data using radCombobox and open form again last time selected option does not show as default.

Please help.

Hi,
I was wondering if it is possible to add multiple images to a radlistbox.
What I want to do is this:
I'm showing a list of files (txt or xml) I'm showing with a small image if the file is a txt or xml file. And I also want to add an error image when the file length is smaller then x kb. If it's not possible I'm going to solve it other wise.

thanks in advanced.

Hi,

I've been looking at the RadControls for WinForms Examples app and I noticed in the RadRibbonBar section you have an example of a MDI Layout. The picture shows the app having rounded corners with a different color border. However, when I click on the button, Launch Example, I do not get this layout. I've been trying to replicate it but I've run into a couple of problems. 1) If I change the border size nothing happens. 2) I add a padding - which gives me a border- but I cannot change the color of it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all,

Maybe a simple question, but how can I define the maximum width of a dockpanel? So that if the window resizes, the width of the dockpanel stays fixed?

Thanks,
Daniel

Hi,

to solve the problem described here
http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/thread/b311D-bamtct.aspx

I tried to handle the SplitterMoved event.
BUT - the SplitterEventArgs give the wrong values.
To reproduce it use the following steps:

Create an app with a dockmanager holding two panels.
For easy investigation move the splitter to some high XPositon.
Lets say - about the middle of your form.
Now add a handler to the SplitterMoved Event in the primary site.
Add a dummy code line there - for an example
int nX=e.SplitX;
Add a breakpoint at that line.
Now start debugging - and drag the splitter very far to the left.
Release the mouse button -- BP hit.
Now check the value of e.SplitX.
EXPECTED: some small value
GOT: the value where the splitter was before dragging!!!

To proof this is not a "SplitterMoved normal behaviour" do the following.
On the rigth pane of your docking add System.Windows.Forms.SplitContainer.
Place the splitter also into the middle of the container.
Add a handler for SplitterMoved.
Add the same dummy code line as for your other handler.
Place a breakpoint at this line of code.
Run your application.
FIRST: you will see an initial break in the SplitContainer SplitterMoved handler
>>this event is not fired for the PrimarySite !!
Continue debugging.
Move the splitter of the SplitContainer far to the left.
Release the mouse - BP hit.
Check the value of e.SplitX
It is a small number - as expected.

Regards

Manfred
