Help us shape the next version of RadGridView for WinForms

Since its introduction earlier this year, RadGridView has proven to be the most used control in our WinForms suite, meaning that Telerik has to put extra efforts in its development and maturity. The product is now very close to the Telerik quality you all are accustomed to, so it is now time to turn to the feature set. We are in no way short of feature ideas (thanks to all of you who have offered their ideas and suggestions), but we would love to get your rating on the most requested features we have listed here.

Your ratings will be used to shape our plans on the future versions of the product, so this is your chance to have a saying in Telerik's Product Plans. Click on the image below to share your ideas!

Custom X Axis Labels

Is it possible at all to add custom labels to the XAxis programmatically? I am using the following code

ChartSeries pSeries = new ChartSeries();
for (int i = 0; i < iCount; i++) {
    // Add a new item
    pSeries.AddItem((double)pGroup.GroupCount, pGroup.GroupName);
}
radChart.Series.Add(pSeries);

However the XAxis is always just labelled 1,2,3,4,5 etc.

Is there a way to set this label as I add items to the series?

I'm looking to have available to me the associated UI object that was originally right-clicked on and am also looking for suggestions to wire that as well.

Thanks,

Winforms Q1 SP2 VB Examples

I might be wrong, but it looks like that Telerik is a C# domain, whereas VB is some kind of a "add on" support! The reason, that causes me to think this, is, the included example C# sharp solution opens in VS2005 without any errors and runs perfectly, the VB solution shows up 207 warning and 70 errors after loading, mostly "method" or "member" errors, out of the box. A Rebuild solution fixes nothing (thought I could created the control classes).
Where is the difference? And is there a way to fix this?
Thanks.

Best regards,
Joerg

Adding COM objects to a radDockPanel

Hi,

I'm trying to add a MapPoint ocx component to a radDockPanel at runtime.

Me.pnMap = New Telerik.WinControls.Docking.DocumentPane
Dim oMap As New MapPoint.MappointControl
Me.pnMap.Controls.Add(oMap)

The following error occurs:

Unable to cast COM object of type 'MapPoint.MappointControlClass' to class type 'System.Windows.Forms.Control'. Instances of types that represent COM components cannot be cast to types that do not represent COM components; however they can be cast to interfaces as long as the underlying COM component supports QueryInterface calls for the IID of the interface.

If I embed the control from the toolbox at design time everything works fine, so could you please help me with this?

Regards,

Dock

Suggestion

I am finding the need to know when tabs are being changed in my application. I'd like to see a DockingManager DockTabChanging event on top of the DockTabChanged that already exists.

Thanks,

Dock
