[Solved] User added ButtonElement not Visible

I added a button to the command buttons on the wizard... The problem is that I can not figure out how to make this button visible. I have set its his.rbtnOpenPayClient.Visibility to Telerik.WinControls.ElementVisibility.Visible but no joy. I set its ZIndex to 5 which I thought would be above any possible control that could be on top of it, still no joy. I'm at a loss at the moment. I can't figure out why this button just won't show itself.

// rbtnOpenPayClient
//
this.rbtnOpenPayClient.AccessibleDescription = "Post Payment";
this.rbtnOpenPayClient.AccessibleName = "Post Payment";
this.rbtnOpenPayClient.Alignment = System.Drawing.ContentAlignment.BottomRight;
this.rbtnOpenPayClient.Margin = new System.Windows.Forms.Padding(4);
this.rbtnOpenPayClient.MinSize = new System.Drawing.Size(100, 24);
this.rbtnOpenPayClient.Name = "rbtnOpenPayClient";
this.rbtnOpenPayClient.Text = "Post Payment";
this.rbtnOpenPayClient.TextWrap = true;
this.rbtnOpenPayClient.Visibility = Telerik.WinControls.ElementVisibility.Visible;
this.rbtnOpenPayClient.ZIndex = 5;
this.rbtnOpenPayClient.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.rbtnOpenPayClient_Click);

Lines will be displayed without wordwrap

Hi all,

I have setup a TextBox with multiline=True.

Setting the Text-Property or the Lines-Property does not display the MultiLineText in correct way.

The text is displayed without wordwrap.

Is there another Property set to be True?

Regards

[Solved] New error when calling LoadLayout in v2015.2.623.40

I've been Saving and Loading the GridView layout for quite some time now. This week I updated the UI controls to version 2015.2.623.40. Since then, when I call LoadLayout(<MemoryStream>) I get the following message box message:

"The string you have entered cannot be converted to a valid Type object. Please, verify the spelling and include any namespaces that migh be needed."

Yes, "might" was misspelled as "migh" in the message box.

Did something change with the Save/Load layout methods?

ExportToExcelML performance

Hello,

I recently noticed that the ExportToExcelML peformance is much faster if the application that calls the RunExport method is minimized.

I am calling RunExport on a background thread, so I thought perhaps it was just my code. So, I performed some tests on the Telerik Demo application, and found the same results. For 1000 records, the export takes about 40 seconds if I don't minimize the application. If minimized, it only takes about 3 seconds. This is in agreement with the performance of my own application.

Can you please verify that this is indeed the case? If so, is this a bug that will be fixed in a future release?

Thank you.

Ed M.

edit: The demo I am comparing to is ExcelML with Events. I used the same pattern to perform the export in a background thread. If I call the RunExport method in the UI thread for my application, the export takes less than 3 seconds for 1000 records. I am using the Winforms Q1-2011-SP1 release.

[Solved] Retrieve color of parent row

Hello ... I've scoured the forums for an answer to this seemingly simple request. I have a template setup and it's working great. What I want to do is to 'paint' the color of the bounding box, for the child rows, the same color as their 'parent' row. I know I need to use ViewCellFormatting to achieve the painting of the box but I can't figure out how to get the row color (I'm using Conditional Formatting to color the parent rows) from the parent during the ViewCellFormatting event. The CellFormattingEventArgs only seems to expose the HierarchicalRowInfo object which, if I'm correct in my understanding, represents the Logical tree and the color of the row is from the Visual tree so I need the actual RowElement object representing the parent row. Below is the code for painting my bounding box:

As you can see, I'm using VB.NET but I can always translate C#. I want to replace the Color.GreenYellow with something like e.CellElement.Parent.BackColor. The problem is that the parent is the ScrollableRowsContainer element, not the GridDetailViewRowElement that I'm trying to get. How the heck can I achieve this?

Thanks, Jim

If TypeOf e.CellElement Is GridDetailViewCellElement Then

Dim row As GridRowElement = e.CellElement.Parent 'This line doesn't actually retrieve the BackColor of the Parent!!!!!!

e.CellElement.DrawFill = True

e.CellElement.BackColor = Color.GreenYellow

e.CellElement.Padding = New Padding(9, 4, 3, 4)

e.CellElement.Margin = New Padding(10, 0, 0, 0)

e.CellElement.Parent.

End If

Decimal column leading zeros

Hi there

I'm trying to add rows to a GridViewDecimalColumn with leading zeros. I know there's a property "FormatString" but this is not exactly what I want. I want the numbers always have the same amount of zeros leading. Here you can see my code:

GridViewDecimalColumn col = new GridViewDecimalColumn();

col.FormatString = "{0:0000}";

radGridView1.Columns.Add(col);

This will output the following:

Number 1 will be 0001
Number 2 will be 0002
Number 10 will be 0010
Number 100 will be 0100

But what I'm trying to achieve is:

Number 1 should be 0001
Number 10 should be 00010
Number 100 should be 000100
etc.

Is this possible? Hope you can help me.

Regards,

Danilo
