Hello,

Ive built a Winforms RadForms application with VB.Net. The application contains several forms that contains several rad controls. The form contains several buttons when clicked changes the theme. But it takes around 3-4 seconds for the theme to change. Now what I want to achieve is the application must show a message box with the message- "Theme Changed" when the theme has changed. I was wondering if there are any events that can be fired during a theme change and found one event named "ThemeNameChanged". I set it up like this:

Private Sub (source as Object, args As ThemeNameCahngedEventArgs) Handles Me.ThemeNameChanged

Msgbox("Theme Changed")

EnsSub

Then I switch the theme with the click of a button:

Private sub Button1_Click(...) Handles Button1.Click

ThemeResolutionService.ApplicationThemeName = "TelerikMetroBlue"

End Sub

But when click Button1 the theme changes but the message is not displayed once the theme has changed. So How Do I dsiplay a message when the theme has changed?

Positioning LabelText on Donut Chart

Hi,

I want to set my Label Text next to LabelLine on Donut Chart.

i use this code to create my chart, but somehow the label text placed on top of label line, not next to it (see attachment for my desired result)

Thank you in advance

private void CreateRadChartDonut(ref string p_strFileName)

{

RadChartView chartDonut = new RadChartView();

//chartDonut = radChartView1;

chartDonut.Size = radChartView1.Size;

chartDonut.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;

chartDonut.LabelFormatting += radChartView_LabelFormatting;

chartDonut.View.Margin = new Padding(65); //set pie padding

chartDonut.AreaType = ChartAreaType.Pie; //set to pie chart type

chartDonut.Series.Clear();

#region Config New Chart Series

Telerik.WinControls.UI.DonutSeries smartPie = new Telerik.WinControls.UI.DonutSeries();

smartPie.Name = "Series";

smartPie.InnerRadiusFactor = 0.35f; //setting inner radious doughnut so it can change as Doughnut Chart

smartPie.LabelMode = PieLabelModes.Horizontal;

smartPie.ShowLabels = true; //show label text

smartPie.DrawLinesToLabels = true; //show label line connector

smartPie.LinesToLabelsColor = Color.FromArgb(197, 158, 115); //set label line connector color

smartPie.SyncLinesToLabelsColor = false; //set true if we want to set label line color the same as series color

//set angle range starting position

AngleRange range = smartPie.Range;

range.StartAngle = 250;

smartPie.Range = range;

smartPie.LabelsOffsetFromCenter = 1.56f;

Adding ButtonElement to the StripButtons

Hi,

I have already managed to add a Help Button to my BaseForm (see attached image).
I would love to have the same little help icon with the Click handler added just before the Scroll Buttons on the RadPageView Strip Element.
Here is the code for the Help Button:

RadButtonElement _btnHelp = new RadButtonElement();
_btnHelp.ShowBorder = false;
_btnHelp.Image = global::labs.STAR.App.Properties.Resources.helpicon;
_btnHelp.ClickMode = ClickMode.Press;
_btnHelp.Click += _btnHelp_Click;
this.FormElement.TitleBar.SystemButtons.Children.Insert(0, _btnHelp);

thx in advance,
Darko

Add button to Image editor side bar?

Hello Telerik Support Team,

I'm trying to add a custom button for the RadImageEditor for my application. When I try to do so using

RadMenuItem cst = new RadMenuItem("Item");

radImageEditor1.ImageEditorElement.CommandsElement.CommandsStackEleemnt.Children.Add(cst);

This does get me the button I need, but I am unable to extend add an event handler to this button.

However If I were to create a button and add it to the element by extending RadMenuItem to override the onclick event within a custom class like so:

CustomMenuItem custom = new CustomMenuItem("CustomMenuItem");

radImageEditor1.ImageEditorEleemnt.CommandsElement.CommandsStackElement.Children.Add(custom);

This will get me a flat generic box the form in which I am unable to modify the style of the button to fit with the rest of the form, however this approach will allow me to define my event handler.

How can I go about it to create a proper button within the image editor side bar (to clarify the side bar below the command elements, and be able to setup the onclick to run the function needed as intended?

Thanks,

ImageEditor

SelectionMiniToolBar - How to

Hello :)

Currently the SelectionMiniToolBar appears very transparent with its opacity increasing as the user moves the mouse over it - my problem is the RTF control has a white background and this menu has a white background with no border so visually it looks like it bleeds onto the page - its not of course, it's floating above it but i'd like to add a BORDER to the Mini Tool Bar so it's more recognizable.

So now i'm looking for where the SelectionMiniToolBar is referenced and that has me stumped. rtfControl.SelectionMiniToolBar isn't correct (I sort of knew that going in but it's where i started) so my question is this: How do I add a border to the existing SelectionMiniToolBar or do i have to build my own completely separate menu in order to do this?

Kindest regards,

Curtis
