Is there a best practices method to saving a dock or grid layout to a SQL server 2016 column, instead of a file?  And should the column be xml type?

I have seen two methods discussed by Telerik.  This first one creates an xml string with a utf-16 header.  Eg: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>.  When 'Inserted Into' the db, and error results - XML parsing: line 1, character 39, unable to switch the encoding.

The second method creates an xml string with a utf-8 header, which can be 'inserted into' the sql db without error.

Overall what is the best method/technique for saving this xml data to a sql server db?  Thanks.

I want to add RadTitleBar to the RadForm, so I'v created a RadTitleBarElement variable, how do i add it to RadForm(FormElement)?

My goal is to add a close, minimize, and maximize function  to the RadForm.

 public RadForm1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();

            
            titleBar = new RadTitleBarElement();

            titleBar.FillPrimitive.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Hidden;
            titleBar.MaxSize = new Size(0, 30);
            titleBar.Children[1].Visibility = ElementVisibility.Hidden;
            titleBar.AllowResize = false;
            titleBar.CloseButton.Parent.PositionOffset = new SizeF(0, 0);
            titleBar.CloseButton.MinSize = new Size(10, 10); 
            titleBar.CloseButton.ButtonFillElement.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed;

            titleBar.MinimizeButton.MinSize = new Size(10, 10);
            titleBar.MinimizeButton.ButtonFillElement.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed;

            titleBar.MaximizeButton.MinSize = new Size(10, 10);
            titleBar.MaximizeButton.ButtonFillElement.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed;

            titleBar.CloseButton.SetValue(RadFormElement.IsFormActiveProperty, true);
            titleBar.MinimizeButton.SetValue(RadFormElement.IsFormActiveProperty, true);
            titleBar.MaximizeButton.SetValue(RadFormElement.IsFormActiveProperty, true);
            titleBar.BackColor = Color.Red;
            titleBar.Close += new TitleBarSystemEventHandler(titleBar_Close);
            titleBar.Minimize += new TitleBarSystemEventHandler(titleBar_Minimize);

            titleBar.MaximizeRestore += new TitleBarSystemEventHandler(titleBar_MaximizeRestore);

    
            this.RadFormElement ？？？？？
        }

I've a RadCollapsiblePanel that contains a radpanel (dockstyle.left) plus a  radsplitcontainer (dockstyle.fill).

The radcollapsiblepanel sizing mode is set to .FitToContentHeight.

It collapses ok, but when it expands it seems to resize to the content height correctly but the contents aren't being restored with it. See attached file.

I've tried resetting the contained splitcontainer dock to botton, then fill, but that made no difference.

how i can Adjust height of RadGridView (agendaview) automatically in UI for WinForms

thanks

Hi everyone,

as a key-feature for the RadTextBoxControl a localizable context menu is mentioned. I now have to take advantage of this feature, but cannot find any example or hint, how to do.

Additionally it would be interesting to know, how to customize a context menu and keep the standard functions like 'copy', 'paste', etc.

Any suggestions or examples?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I like to assign a FormatString to the CalculatorDropDown like Columns.FormatString in GridView-Control.

Example: A value 2.17 should be formated 2.17 m² to display the value in squaremeters.

Is there any property to set or any other solution to format the value in the Calculator-Control?

Regards

Hardy

My Problem:

I have problem in conversational UI layout.When I set the conversational UI input text box to multiline its height expand vertically and i can't find a way to resize it to normal (like it look without multiline ) and also when I type something in it then send button and toolbar button push in right direction and get invisible to user even I set the dock property of chatUI to fill. 

What solution I want:

1. I want conversational UI in multiline mode without increase in the height of input textbox when its empty, height of input text box only increases if line in text get increase and it add vertical scrollbar for viewing down in input text box. (box size will increase decrease with user text input dynamically).

2. The button wont get push in right direction when user type in inputext box in multiline mode.

3. As user type in and text lines get increases then vertical scrollbar added dynamically and when box get empty the input text box goes back to normal size and the scrollbar get remove. (same as whatsapp chat input text box).  

I have attach some screenshot to explain my problem please have a look.

Thank you. Please reply me ASAP.
