I am trying to write some code for the cellDoubleClick event, but it seems that it only fires if the cells column is readonly. Is there a way around this? It looks like the first click will open the cell up for editing and the second click is ignored. I want to have different code run for a single click or a double click event.

Document window is resizable

I have RadForm-derived class that I'm adding as RadDock document windows. How do I make them stay the same size as the container? Please see attachment.

The code I'm using is something like this:

var view = new MyView(rule)

{

Dock = DockStyle.Fill,

TopLevel = false,

FormBorderStyle = FormBorderStyle.None,

MdiParent = this,

Text = "blah",

};

view.Show();

var wnd = new DocumentWindow {Text = "blah"};

wnd.Controls.Add(view);

radDock1.AddDocument(wnd);

I'm using an older version of Telerik at the moment. The version of RadDock.dll is 2017.3.912.40 and Runtime version is v4.0.30319.

Modification of MetroTheme

Hi,

I am currently using Rad Control for Winforms Q2 and Q3 2013.

I am developing a winform application and trying to use MetroTheme.

MetroTheme has a feel of light green in almost everywhere such as top border of winform border.

I'd like to change this color scheme slightly and create my own style theme. All the style elements should stay the same as MetroTheme except that this light green color should be replaced with my own color like light gray.

I tried to use Visual Style Builder and watched some video tutorials but couldn't find the solution.

Can you help me please?

Thanks,

Patrick

RadStatusStrip's RadLabelElement & Backgroundworker Question.

I was under the assumption that any UI element you wanted to update from the Backgroundworker had to be in the ProgessChanged event. However, I have noticed, only by accident, that I have been able to update the RadLabelElement's Text property w/ in the BackGroundWorker DoWork event. Is this by design? I have not been able to find any documentation on this related to the RadLabelElement.

TIA

Excel like filtering - hide filtering symbol in column header

Hello,

is it possible to hide the filter symbol in a specific column header while excel-like filtering remains enabled?

I have to filter a specific column via some radio buttons only.

This works for me:

Private Sub rbAktiv_CheckedChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles rbAktivAuftraege.CheckedChanged

Dim filter As New FilterDescriptor()

Dim filtervalue As String = String.Empty

filter.PropertyName = "oa_status"

filter.[Operator] = FilterOperator.Contains

filter.IsFilterEditor = True

Select Case True

Case sender Is rbAktivAuftraege

Me.RGV_auftraege.FilterDescriptors.Clear()

filtervalue = CStr("aktiv")

filter.Value = filtervalue

Me.RGV_auftraege.FilterDescriptors.Add(filter)

End Select

Best Regards,

V. Adler

- the data validation in the cell works correctly according to the list but drop down arrow is not shown in the cell even if the options "In-cell dropdown" is checked

Thanks for your help
