First off, I'm not sure where to report bugs so if this is in the wrong Forum my apologies.

I've been using Telerik Controls for several years now - LOVE THEM!

This bug is pretty nit-picky but I thought I'd report it so at least you folks are aware of the issue and can address it (or not!) at your leisure.

Settings:

OS - Windows 7 64bit

Language - VB.Net

Telerik Version:  UI for WinForms 2017 Q2 (build?) 613

Steps to reproduce:

1) Place any Telerik control on a form.

2) Click on the control in the form to Select it.

3) Click the little right-arrow at the top of the control (I *think* its called the "Task Button" ??)

3a) This brings up a "helper" menu for the control.

4) Select "Edit UI Elements"

4a) This brings up the "Element hierarchy editor"

This Editor is resizable and that's great news since many of these controls are super-nested and their names are quite lengthy so to see as much as possible, it's not to be able to resize this box....BUT

Nothing in this Dialog Box has been set to resize WITH the dialog box...sure the border of the box changes but the lists remain exactly where they were when it opened, exactly the same size.

It's really, really easy to get controls to follow the size/shape of their parent just by altering their anchors (I know your developers already know this...this last comment was for any customers who happen to be new at programming!)

4b) "Control Element Structure" Group should have its anchor set to Top, Bottom, Left

4c) The label, "Selected element: AAAAAAAAAA" should have its anchor set to Bottom, Left

4d) "Selected Element Properties" group should have its anchor set to Top, Bottom, Left, Right

4e) the panel directly below "Selected Element Properties" should have anchor = Bottom, Left, Right

4f) The "Close" button should have its anchor set to Bottom, Right.

Not for nothing but the dialog box itself should have a Min Size set so you can't make it so small there's nothing to see and while we're at it get rid of the Min and Max buttons...there's no reason for those to be on this dialog box.

Like I said in the beginning - very nit-picky!  Sorry but I'm all about the UI (which is why I use Telerik Controls in the first place and have for YEARS!) and stuff like this is just polish that gives a more professional look IMO.

Sorry if I stepped on any toes here - just trying to help!

Hi,

I want to connect two item on the diagram programmatically. I am not sure that the procedure is correct or not?

1) set a  ID (name)

2) search diagram.Shap array and find two ID

3) make connection with source and target index based on ID <name> found in step 2

Thank you.

1. When I run the Toolbox Configuration tool to add the RadControls, it is continuously adding the controls again to the toolbox after VS2010 is restarted, Why?
2. I cannot find the editors, and basic RadControls like textbox, button and such, why?

Hi, I've tried to create a radGridView control programmatically so I can host it inside of a radHostControl, I do believe the problem has nothing to do with hosting as it occurs before I host it. : When I create teh control using the following code, I give it a Datasource which has data, however the control reports that it has no columns in its properties. And continuing, the control actually shows the data and all the columns when the app is live; the problem being I can't access these columns as they apparently do not exist:

            RadGridView gridView = new RadGridView();
            Telerik.WinControls.UI.TableViewDefinition tableViewDefinition14 = new Telerik.WinControls.UI.TableViewDefinition();

            gridView.BeginInit();
            gridView.MasterTemplate.BeginInit();

            gridView.Size = new Size(100, 300);
            gridView.AutoGenerateColumns = true;
            gridView.DataSource = blacklistProps;
            getBlacklist();

            gridView.MasterTemplate.AllowAddNewRow = false;
            gridView.MasterTemplate.AllowColumnChooser = false;
            gridView.MasterTemplate.AllowColumnHeaderContextMenu = false;
            gridView.MasterTemplate.ShowColumnHeaders = false;
            gridView.MasterTemplate.ShowFilteringRow = false;
            gridView.MasterTemplate.ShowRowHeaderColumn = false;
            gridView.MasterTemplate.ViewDefinition = tableViewDefinition14;
            gridView.Name = "blacklistGridView";

            gridView.RootElement.MinSize = new System.Drawing.Size(0, 0);
            gridView.ShowGroupPanel = false;
            //gridView.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(316, 381);
            gridView.TabIndex = 0;

            gridView.ContextMenuOpening += new Telerik.WinControls.UI.ContextMenuOpeningEventHandler(this.gridViewMappings_ContextMenuOpening);

            gridView.MasterTemplate.EndInit();
            gridView.EndInit();

Hi!

Is there a way, maybe I'm missing something, to apply a DataTypeConverer to a DropDownList, the same as we are able to do with a column in a RadGridView?

The idea is that the DisplayMember I need to set is a collection of KeyValuePair. Depending on a key configured externally, I need to choose a specific value. This can be done for grid by applying a custom DataTypeConverter.

For example, let's say the data source is like the following:

var dataSource = new List<Entity>{
        new Entity
{
            int Id = 1;
            string Name = "NameSample";
            Dictionary<int, string> Descriptions = new Dictionary<int, string>
            {
                {0, "descriptionInEnglish"},
                {1, "descriptionInGerman"}
            };
        }

};

I need to set the DisplayMember of the DropDownList to show the description in a language depending on an external setting.

Thanks!

I have a GridViewComboBoxColumn and while in edit mode I want the StretchVertically to be false so I use the following code:

this.radGridView1.CellBeginEdit += RadGridView1_CellBeginEdit;

private void RadGridView1_CellBeginEdit(object sender, GridViewCellCancelEventArgs e)
{
switch (e.Column.Name)
{
case "MyColumn":
RadDropDownListEditor editor = e.ActiveEditor as RadDropDownListEditor;
if (editor != null)
{
editor.EditorElement.StretchVertically = false;
editor.EditorElement.Alignment = ContentAlignment.TopLeft;
}

But the dropdownlisteditor is still vertically centered in the cell. Is there a way to have it TopLeft?
