ListViewDataItem BackColor

I have two radlistviews on a form. I want to hide the selection color in the first listview when an item is selected in the second listview and vice versa. I have added code to the VisualItemFormatting event to do this. However, selecting an item in the second listview doesn't trigger the VisualItemFormatting event of the first listview, so nothing happens. How do I trigger the VisualItemFormatting event of the first listview? Or is there some other way to do this?

Counting characters

Does anyone know if with the RTF Editor you have the ability to count the number of characters. What I need to be able to do is insert an external file and count the total characters typed into the editor minus the count of the inserted file. Also If portions of the inserted file are changed be able to add the changed characters to the total count.

Grid View Hierarchy Not Expanding

Hi,

I'm using the winforms Telerik GridView in c#

I'm trying to populate a Parent Child Relationship ( Self Referencing Columns from same Table). I have created the Master and Child Templates. Code Below.

On executing this code, the master files are displayed with a '+' symbol. However they dont seem to be expandable. But when the bound columns are removed from the child template, the hierarchy works fine (Child data are displayed)

Also when for the child template, Columns are NOT customised and AUTOGENERATECOLUMNS is set to true, the hierarchy works fine and child data is displayed.

Can you please suggest how to achieve a hierarchy with customised bound columns in the Child template like in the case below ? I need this at the earliest as i'm running on a deadline

// Datasource for Parent Rows

DataTable dtDashboardView_MasterFiles = CDashboardManager.Get_DashboardView_MasterFiles();

// Datasource for Child Rows

DataTable dtDashboardView_SubFiles = CDashboardManager.Get_DashboardView_SubFiles();

// Parent Template Creation

radDashboard.AutoGenerateHierarchy = true ;

radDashboard.MasterGridViewTemplate.AutoExpandGroups = true;

radDashboard.MasterGridViewTemplate.AutoGenerateColumns = false;

radDashboard.EnableAlternatingRowColor = true;

((GridTableElement)radDashboard.GridElement).AlternatingRowColor = Color.LightGray;

radDashboard.MasterGridViewInfo.TableHeaderRow.AllowResize = true;

radDashboard.MasterGridViewTemplate.AllowAddNewRow = false;

radDashboard.MasterGridViewTemplate.AllowDeleteRow = false;

radDashboard.MasterGridViewTemplate.AllowEditRow = true;

radDashboard.MasterGridViewTemplate.DataSource = dtDashboardView_MasterFiles;

// Child Template Creation

GridViewTemplate template = new GridViewTemplate();

template.Caption = "SubFiles";

template.AutoGenerateColumns = false;

template.AllowColumnResize = true;

template.AllowRowResize = false;

template.AllowAddNewRow = false;

template.AllowDeleteRow = false;

template.AllowEditRow = true;

template.ShowColumnHeaders = true;

GridViewCheckBoxColumn dtCheckBox = new GridViewCheckBoxColumn();

dtCheckBox.UniqueName = "c_chkBxSelect";

dtCheckBox.HeaderText = "";

dtCheckBox.Width = 40;

template.Columns.Add(dtCheckBox);

GridViewTextBoxColumn cMasterID = new GridViewTextBoxColumn();

cMasterID.UniqueName = "c_MASTERID";

cMasterID.HeaderText = "Master ID";

cMasterID.FieldName = "MASTERID";

Font Scale (DPI)

Hi,

I use TSSP file that changes the appearance of the entire application.
There is a problem with the appearance when the user has different font scaling setting in Windows (120 DPI).
Due to the nature of the project I need to get the same appearance of the application, regardless of the DPI.
So using VisualStyleBuilder I changed the font size from the point value to the pixel value (Segoe UI; 8,25pt => Segoe UI; 11px).
In Annex, you can see the result.
Font has the same size. But the size of the control type CommandBarButton is strange. It looks as if I set the padding (but padding is 0 for all).
How to get rid of the padding?
For other types of controls do not see this behavior.

Reporting from Win Forms

tried to post it in Reporting forum, but unsuccessfully, doesn't show

Hi,

here is the code for background printing.

void ReportToDefault(Report report)
{
if (report == null) return;

System.Drawing.Printing.PrintController standardPrintController =
new System.Drawing.Printing.StandardPrintController();
Telerik.Reporting.Processing.ReportProcessor reportProcessor
= new Telerik.Reporting.Processing.ReportProcessor();
reportProcessor.PrintController = standardPrintController;
try
{
reportProcessor.PrintReport(report, Properties.Settings.Default.defaultPrinter);
}
catch (Exception ex) { MessageBox.Show(ex.Message); }
}

The question is:

If the high intensive printing is needed, then what is the best practice to use the code?
Is it better to instantiate the controller and processor only once, on the App start up, and then just pass arguments to PrintReport?
What if it's using im multithreading mode, when Docs come ech time while the processor maybe is still busy in printing?
Thanks you!
