Can't display preview of value in RadPropertyGrid when SelectedObject is ICustomTypeDescriptor

Hi!

I am trying to replace standart winforms PropertyGrid, which actually does the job, by RadPropertyGrid but faced up with an issue. Editing object contains string typed property, which stores value of a color, also there is custom editor based on UITypeEditor which should render the value inside property grid. In debug I see that in case of RadPropertyGrid, methods of my editor are not invoked and thus no rendering happens, while everything works ok with standart property grid. How may I make it work with RadPropertyGrid?

Considering that a code base, I'm working is deep legacy, I tried to create a symplified sample app that demonstrates a use case in our app, described upstairs.

here is the code

Property display name

Hello, does anyone knows a way to let the RadDataFilter to show the "DisplayName" of a property (as taken from a resource file) instead of the property name in unbound mode so that I do not have to write my own parser to convert the expression between "display" and "property" ?

[Display(Name = "DATAARR_DisplayProp", Description="DATAARR_zz_tooltip_", ResourceType=typeof(Warehouse.Magany2.loc.PKLIST_LOCALI))]

public Nullable<DateTime> DATAARR

{

get;

set;

}

See attached image

Best Regards

Disable print dialog and print settings dialog from print preview dialog

I have a rich text editor with rubber bar (playing with Telerik's demo project), and I would like to disable the user from changing printer settings (and to change the printer in particular). So, for plain print I have this code (please correct me if there's a better way):

private void radRichTextEditor1_CommandExecuting(object sender, CommandExecutingEventArgs e)

{

if (e.Command is PrintCommand)

{

e.Cancel = true;

radRichTextEditor1.Print(false);

}

But how to prevent the print dialog from print preview dialog? Also, how to prevent print settings dialog as well? Ideally I would like the print button to just print immediately, and print settings button to disappear.

Scrolling and the time separator

At startup, I am adding the last x number of messages, but the control doesn't scroll to the bottom. How can I ensure the last message is visible?

Also, the last x messages span across more than 1 day, but my time separator always says Today.

The date in the ChatTextMessage constructor looks correct, and it is adding separators between the dates, but they all say Today

Thanks!

Hide rows in GridView with duplicate column data

Hello everyone,

Title basically explains the problem. I have some code that I tried searching for online, but it doesn't do what I want it to.

See screenshot to see the duplicate data I'm trying to hide (i.e. hide the second row -- id: 34 -- where the business names are both "Tractor Supply Warehouse"

Here's the code I have now, though I've tried a few different approaches with no success. What happens in this one is that the value of the duplicateIndexList never changes...so everything after the duplicate Tractor Supply Warehouse row (id: 34) gets hidden, which I don't want!

Thanks!

tracker that mimics video status bar setting IN and OUT

Is there away to use the tracking component to track between 2 values. What I'm trying to mimic is a video time status bar. I want the user to be able to set the IN and OUT between the start time and the end time. Then when they play the video it will have a current status bar between the IN and OUT that shows the current time of the clip that is playing.

I attached an image of what Adobe premiere looks like. I know it can't look like this but would love to be able to do something like it that would have a tracker that has a min of 0 and max of lets say 60 (secs) then a user set the IN at 4 (sec) and OUT at 20 (sec) then when they play the thumb will move between those 2 numbers. Even if it's just a visual background range color that is set between those 2 numbers it would work. I just need to make it so that it's visual that the user selected those 2 ranges.

Hope this makes sense.

Change Background Color of Disabled DropDownList

Hi Folks!

I'm trying to override the template color of my DropDownLists so they don't stand out so poorly.

I tried doing this:

cmbNameSource.RootElement.SetThemeValueOverride(Telerik.WinControls.Primitives.FillPrimitive.BackColorProperty, Color.FromArgb(226, 226, 226), "Disabled", GetType(Primitives.FillPrimitive))

But that didn't seem to have any effect...not to mention even if it did work, I still have to figure out how to change the forecolor of the Text that's displayed.

Any help would be VERY appreciated!

I'm attaching some png's so show you what I mean. Every control in both images has .Enabled = False but as you can see the DropDownList's Look-n-Feel doesn't match the text boxes surrounding it. That's what I'm trying to change!

Thank you all very much :)

RadGridView- set font size for cell during edit

Hello-
I'm using a RadGridview (Telerik Winforms version 2018.1.220.40) and am having trouble setting the font size for a cell while it is being edited... I've managed to get everything else on my grid to Segoe 14pt, but when the user adds a new row, the cell they're typing in has a huge font that makes it unreadable. When they tab to the next cell, it goes back to the standard font and the previous cell is readable, but the current cell again has a large font.

Dess has helped me a couple times(thanks!), and I've looked for formatting event when cell edit starts, and googled, but can't find anything. In short, would like for the font in a cell being edited to be the same as everything else on the grid...

Thanks
