Slow RadChart in DockPanel

Hi,

My application becomes very slow when I generate radcharts inside dockpanels...

Here is the code:

Dim dp As New DockPanel
dp.Text = "Panel"
dp.CloseButtonVisible = False
dp.DropDownButtonVisible = False
Dim chart As New RadChart
chart.Dock = DockStyle.Fill
dp.Controls.Add(chart)
DockingManager1.SetDock(dp, DockPosition.Fill)

What I'm doing wrong?

commitedit?

No commitedit? How do you force an edit to commit? For example if the user hits a save button on the form and they are in the middle of an edit...

Virtualization

Hi,

I noticed something using your Windows controls for the first time: it seems that for some overloads virtualization was not used. For example:

Control[] ctrl = tabItem2.ContentPanel.Controls.Find(rb.Tag.ToString(), true);
ctrl[0].Focus();

behaves differently from

Control[] ctrl = tabItem2.ContentPanel.Controls.Find(rb.Tag.ToString(), true);
Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadTextBox rtb = (Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadTextBox)ctrl[0];
rtb.Focus();

Based on OO theory and best practices, both should behave the same, but in this case they don't.
From the above example it's noticeable that this problem is generated by the fact that the overload function is not virtual, so the compiler doesn't know to call the correct version based on the object content, instead of using the type.
Was this left like this intentional (and if so why?) or it's just a mishap?

Thanks,
Cristian

Labels

I'm trying to create a simple bar graph for inventory. I need the month names along the bottom (which are also the column names in SQL ie Jan, Feb, Mar etc) and the total number of the selected items going up the side. So this would display the total number of the selected item sold and how many where sold in each month. So it could in thoery be completely databound to the datasource but I can't seem to figure out how to do it. Any ideas?

RadTitleBar caption issue

I have dropped a RadTitleBar control into a form with its FormBorderStyle set to "None". I then set the Caption property in the RadTitleBar to "Anything But Default". This shows up in the designer, but when I run the aapplication, the title shows up as "Form1". Even if I remove all of the Caption/Text property values it still shows up as "Form1" when running. What gives? This is a pretty basic custom control property.

Documentation for GridView column types

Am I missing some documentation for the GridView column types? I'm trying to use the GridViewCommandColumn or the GridViewImageColumn, but I don't understand how to use them - they don't seem to have any properties for adding the button text (for command column) or the image location (for the image column). I don't see them mentioned at all in the documentation - am I just missing something?

I am using the Q! sp2 release.
