No Text Associated

In the toolstrip item configuration menu item, would it be possible to remove the "No Text Associated" entry for separator items? They shouldn't really be visible in this context.

Thanks

Best regards

dropdownbutton image placement

I was under the impression that when you set the image position setting in the RadDropDownButton that is where the image is supposed to be displayed :) ... for example if I set the ImageAlignment to MiddleCenter (with no text included) then the image would be displayed in the middle of the button.

Unfortunately the image doesn't want to move from the TopLeft positions.

Here's the settingings being used:

DisplayStyle - Image

Image - 16x16 png file
ImageAlignment - MiddleCenter

Text - ""
TextAlignment - Middle Left
TextImageRelation - Overlay

StretchVertically/Horizontally not working?

When adding a RadToggleButtonElement to a RadPanelBar we want to stretch it to fill the whole width of the panel bar. We've tried playing with the StretchVertically, StretchHorizontally, AutoSize and a random selection of other options without success.

What are we doing wrong?

Best regards

Not filling available space with docked items

Would it be/is it possible not to have the docked panels filling the entire space available? The scenario we require is to have items docked left, right and bottom and the remaining space to be filled dynamically by tabbed documents at run time after some user action takes place.

Best regards

Members Missing from RibbonBar

I'm getting an error while compiling my application... this hasn't happened before, so maybe it's just me! I keep getting errors saying that EnableKeyMap, ExitButton, and OptionsButton aren't members of "Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadRibbonbar". This is really confusing... thanks for all your help!

RadPanel border

I'm back :)

I'm spending most of the next day or two working with more of the base UI controls so I will probably be making a few posts during that time - hope you don't mind :)

With the RadPanel you have it by default displaying a border but you have no Border Setting to turn it off. Not in all cases is a developer going to want to havea border displayed around the panel

Can't Put Anything in My Panelbars

Hello Again,

This time my problem lies with the PanelBar's ContentPanel. I set the EnableHostControlMode property (in the Behavior section) to True as im told enabling me to drag elements into each panel. The only problem is that the Container that appears when i set EnableHostControlMode to True, wont dock to the size of it's parent panel. It stays at at 50x50px.

Even stranger is that for my 1st item in the panelBar, the ContentPanel's location is 0,0 but over the bar itself. So it doesn't sit in its intended space properly. The ContentPanel in the 2nd Item is located at the proper 0,0 but still wont resize properly despite all efforts.

Is this a serious bug, or am I just missing something incredibly simple?

Changing the color on the selected RadPanelBarGroupElement.

Hi,
I'm trying to do something which seems trivial, but I'm having the hardest time. I have a RabPanelBar in list mode which I programmatically add RadPanelBarGroupElements to (note I have also tried to add via the designer with the same results), when on element is selected I want the header to change color and stay.

I have used the VSB to create a new theme which sets the FillPrimitive of ElementWithCaptionLayout of RadPanelBarGroupdElement. THe theme uses different combinations of conditions (IsMouseOver and Selected) to set the color. The problem is, it seems this part of the theme is not honored. I can change other things in the theme and it works.

Any info or direction is much appreciated.

Thanks,
daveo

In place edit auto-highlighting

Hi,

I have just begun to test swapping out the Windows default tree view with the Rad one, and I am quite impressed, however, I am lacking one piece of functionality which is very important.

On the Windows tree view, when a begin edit is performed, either by in place clck or programatically, the text is automatically highlighted and the focus is placed in the label.

The rad BeginEdit (bool focus) does not even focus the label, so the label needs to be clicked before a user can type.

Is it possible, programatically, or automatically to have all the text on a label highlighted when a Begin Edit is performed?

Thanks
