Option buttons

Hi,

I can't figure out how to add option buttons to the ribbon. I want a simple option button with two options in a chunk. Is it possible?

Thank you,

How to resize TextBox Element

I added a textbox element to my toolstrip item. I am trying to make the text box wider. In the design mode I finally figured out how to make it wider by turning AutoSize off, changing the width property and then going into the children and doing the same for the textbox item. This all works good until I compile and run the application. The textbox item properties reset themselves back to the default. What am I missing?

Thanks, Mark

Size of Icons

Hi, I read the Office 2007 Guideline and it saids that de size of the icons has to be 16x16 for small ones and 32x32 for the bigones. The problem is that if I use this size of the element ( Text below Image) is not the same as Word 2007?

If I use 48x48 icons the sieze of the group is exactly as the chunk hegith.

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...
