Hi,

I'm trying to use GridView Multiselect property but is not working.

I just set MultiSelect to true and SelectionMode to FullRowText but it doesn't work. I tried using shift, control and even the mouse and nothing.

Is there something missing for me?

I just checked the documentation.

Regards,

Walter

Dropdownlist selected value

Hi Admin,

The dropdownlist of autocompletemode is suggest and dropdownlist of dropdownstyle is dropdown.

I have two dropdownlist. First is Category and second details.

First Category data are Green,Red and Orange.

Second Details data are Avocado, Green apple, Green grape, Kiwi, Pear, Honeydew Melon, Raspberry, Strawberry, cherry, Orange, Papaya, Tangerines, Pumpkin and Plum.

When I key in detail dropdownlist start from 'P' and I choose 'Plum' and Category dropdownlist auto change to Red but second dropdownlist automatically choose Strawberry.

If Category choose blank , all dropdownlist reset. If Category choose green, detail dropdownlist need to show green category code of fruit. No need to show all value.

Customizing the appearance of the list view item.

Hi,

I am trying to customize the appearance of the list view item and I followed the Shopping Cart List View example at the below location -

https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/knowledge-base/shopping-cart-lsitview-custom-item

The list view item is divided into two StackLayout elements and each element has further UI elements and buttons. The entire item is divided into 2 halves. I need to define the width of the each StackLayout element such that the element on the left occupies around 70% of the item width and the one on the right to have a 30% width.

Attached is an image for reference which shows the item is split into 2 halves.

A sample code or pointers would be great.

Below is the code for the visual item as well.

using System;

using System.Drawing;

using System.Windows.Forms;

using Telerik.WinControls.UI;

Adding Custom control in a Cell of GridView - which contains DropdownList

Hi All,

I have added a custom column or cell containing DrodownList -its appearing correctly in view mode.

Now I have below points :

1. On which event of the GridView I can bind the dropdownList.

2. When I select any value (Currently have added some static value in the DropdownList). Once I scroll the grid , the state changes to original state.

3. Some time I noticed that the value i selected for let say row one, the same value is being selected for the the row which is not displayed. after scrolling we can see the same. and the value of 1st row got removed.

4. My requirement is -

I need to give a data source to the Drodownlist.
Need to get a value selected on some condition
If I scroll the value should not change.

Attaching my code of custom cell

class CustomDropCell : GridDataCellElement

{

private string conString { get; set; }

public CustomDropCell(GridViewColumn column, GridRowElement row): base(column, row)

{

//conString = con;

}

private StackLayoutPanel panel;

private RadDropDownListElement radDropDownList;

protected override void CreateChildElements()

{

base.CreateChildElements();

this.panel = new StackLayoutPanel();

this.panel.Margin = new System.Windows.Forms.Padding(5);

this.panel.Orientation = System.Windows.Forms.Orientation.Vertical;

this.radDropDownList = new RadDropDownListElement

{

DropDownStyle = Telerik.WinControls.RadDropDownStyle.DropDownList

};

this.radDropDownList.Items.Add("Santosh");

this.radDropDownList.Items.Add("Jha");

this.radDropDownList.Items.Add("Mr");

this.radDropDownList.Items.Add("Kumar");

this.Children.Add(radDropDownList);

}

protected override void SetContentCore(object value)

{

GridViewGroupRowInfo row = this.RowInfo as GridViewGroupRowInfo;

object cellValue = value;

if (cellValue is DBNull || cellValue == null)

cellValue = "Mr";

this.radDropDownList.SelectedValue = cellValue;

}

protected override Type ThemeEffectiveType

{

get

{

return typeof(GridDataCellElement);

}

public override bool IsCompatible(GridViewColumn data, object context)

{

return base.IsCompatible(data, context);

// return data is CustomDropCellColumn && context is GridDataRowElement;

}

public class CustomDropCellColumn : GridViewDataColumn

{

//private string conString { get; set; }

public CustomDropCellColumn(string fieldName) : base(fieldName)

{

//conString = connectionString;

}

public override Type GetCellType(GridViewRowInfo row)

{

if (row is GridViewDataRowInfo)

{

return typeof(CustomDropCell);

}

return base.GetCellType(row);

}

Adding the column in Grid in Form Constructor.

CustomDropCellColumn customColumn = new CustomDropCellColumn("Destination Table");

customColumn.MaxWidth = 170;

this.radGridViewTable.Columns.Add(customColumn);

this.radGridViewTable.Columns["Destination Table"].MinWidth = 165;

how to use as RadGridView editor with valuemember&displaymember

I need to use dropdownlist as RadGridView editor

and I have look into this

https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/controls/dropdown-listcontrol-and-checkeddropdownlist/checkeddropdownlist/how-to/use-as-radgridview-editor

In the sample above,it bound a datasource to the dropdownlist editor,but only handle the display text and control value by overiding the "Value" property.

If I want to bind a datasource with valuemember and displaymember,how to handle them properly?What I expect is to let user choose with the displaymember and valuemember can be saved according to what user choose just like the normal checkeddropdownlist control.

Cant Paste in Rich Text Editor

Hi all,

I just encountered the most bizarre thing today while using the Rich Text Editor. I upgraded our Telerik DLLs to the most recent one available (2019 R2, 2019.2.618) and it seems like the ability to paste into the Rich Text Editor has been lost all of a sudden. I tried all I could and looked around the forums a bit to no avail. The interesting thing is that when I debug, I can "hit" the CommandExecuting event and I can see that in the code it recognizes that it is a paste command, but the text is not being pasted onto the textbox.

private void RadRichTextEditor1_CommandExecuting(object sender, Telerik.WinForms.Documents.RichTextBoxCommands.CommandExecutingEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Command is PasteCommand)
            {
                //the event is fired and recognizes that IT IS a PASTE COMMAND, but text is not being pasted onto the textbox
            }
        }

Has anyone else encountered this before. If so, can anyone point me to the right direction as to why this is happening? Thanks all.
