Controling the closing of docked windows

I know that you need to unregister dockpanels in order to remove them from the manager.

But how would I know when to do this? You have closebuttonvisible property to disable the close button, (even though it doesn't truly close), but how would I be able to determine that the user clicked it, since there doesn't seem to be a way to determine how the panel was hidden.

If the user selects hide from the dropdown, or closes it with the button, how can I tell the difference? I want to remove the panel if the close button is used.

DateTime with time

In the existing Win.Forms DateTime you can only set the date. You can set the time also if you specifiy it in the edit field.
However what would be nice would be a control where you could set both the date and the time using some clock control.

Binding to dropdown

Hi

I need to bind a dataset to the dropdown part of a RadCombo but everything I try fails so I've reverted to the VB.net Combo.

Can you give me the basic vb.net code to get me started.

Many thanks

Copy and paste loses everything

When I copy and paste most controls, usually the collection is lost, say in a combobox. Is this just a Visual Studio designer bug? Is there a way to re-assign the collection back or make a copy of it without having to spend hours re-creating it just because you wanted to move it somewhere else?

I also get javascript errors when using Telerik controls, especially the tabs -- they disappear on me a lot, and I need close and open the project again to see them. It's just impossible it seems to copy and paste the whole tab control without not only screwing up your entire project, but also losing all the tabs. It doesn't seem specific to Telerik though... it's like the VS designer is totally clueless. I make a backup of my project anytime I need to move something to another user control...

Dynamically add controls to RadTabstrip

I am new to your controls, in VB.Net I am trying to dynamicaly build a form. I have added the RadTabstrip to my .Net form and I can successfully add tabs in via code. My problem is I want to add controls to the tab via code also(RadTetxbox, RadListbox) however it is not adding the control to the correct tab. Below is the code:

Private Sub Add_Text(ByVal sorder As String, ByVal itab As Integer)

Dim txt As New RadTextBox

txt.Name = "Text_" & sorder

txt.Multiline = True

txt.ScrollBars = ScrollBars.Both

Me.RadTabStrip1.SelectedTab = Me.RadTabStrip1.Items(itab)

Me.TabItem1.ContentPanel.Controls.Add(txt)

itab is the tab I want to add the control to, it always adds the control to my first tab on the RadTabStrip control.

RadButtonElement optionsButton = new RadButtonElement();

optionsButton.Text = "Options";

optionsButton.Alignment = ContentAlignment.TopRight;

optionsButton.Padding = new Padding(3);

optionsButton.Margin = new Padding(3);

optionsButton.TextImageRelation = TextImageRelation.ImageBeforeText;

optionsButton.Image = global::Telerik.Examples.WinControls.Properties.Resources.optionsButton;

RadButtonElement exitButton = new RadButtonElement();

exitButton.Text = "Exit";

exitButton.Alignment = ContentAlignment.TopRight;

exitButton.Padding = new Padding(3);

exitButton.Margin = new Padding(3);

exitButton.TextImageRelation = TextImageRelation.ImageBeforeText;

exitButton.Image = global::Telerik.Examples.WinControls.Properties.Resources.exitButton;

Automatic Form Scaling

I would love a Control to automatically scale the form and all (or some) of the controls on the form as it is resized. I tried http://www.fengarisoftware.com/Default.aspx?tabid=105, but it does not work correctly with your controls. I suspect just does not know how to find all the properties correctly since it is all custom.

I woudl like to know if this is at all a possibility as I am developing an application to run of HUGE resolutions where the user could be 60+ feet away.

Maybe there is a way to get your controls to resize correctly with their control?

Thank you
