New Row Position

Hi there,

We have a data-bound RadGridView to which we’re programmatically adding rows. The position in which the rows are added naturally depends on how the grid is sorted. Is there a way to override this behavior, however? We’d like to insert rows at the end of the grid even if this violates the order in which users have manually sorted the grid.

I’ve tried using a BindingList in order to more closely manage the insertion order, but to no avail.

Thank you so much!

Cheers,
Ben Leibert

Add childform to RadDock

Hi,
i use raddock in my project.as u know when it show(open) a form it becomes a tab in raddock.
my problem is that when i open a form and number of open tabs(forms) got more than the width of raddock, it automatically set new opened form in front of other forms.though , i set DocumentInsertOrder to ToBack.
when number of open forms are less than raddock's width, DocumentInsertOrder works correctly and add new forms to end of active forms but when number of open forms exceed raddock width, it seems that this property act as InFront and add new forms in front of other forms.
i want to add new forms always at the end of active form list even though number of open forms exceed raddock width.
i'm in hurry, please help me
tanx in advance

Converting DropDown to ContexMenu

I Have very little programming knowledge. This program worked well before I got a newer version of Telerik. Now it is having trouble converting RadDropDownMenus to RadContextMenus.

mnContext = new RadDropDownMenu();

mnItem = new RadMenuItem("&Add Stats" );

mnItem.Tag = lnkToTeam;

mnItem.Name = "AddBattingStats";

mnContext.Items.Add(mnItem);

mnContext.Click += new EventHandler(tvTeam_ContextMenu_PitchPlanRootClicked);

planGroupNode.ContextMenu = mnContext;

planGroupNode.Tag = null;

planGroupNode.Name = "PitchPlanHeader";

planGroupNode.ToolTipText = "Right-click to add or delete Pitch Plans";

ContextMenu

ChartView line graph with dates displaying every day.

Hello,

I have a Cartesian line graph with dates as CategoryMembers going back 90 days. I'm trying to only display a label every 10 days so that the x-axis isn't so crowded. Is this possible?

Thanks,
John

How to change selected row if another row is selected

Hello,

I have a multicolumn combo box that I can't seem to set the value. When the selectindex is fired for this combobox I do a check of the data the user has worked with. If there is a missing value I pop up a message box which works but i'm unable to reset the selected value to something else. It keeps the selected value the user set to notify the group that they are finished with this job. Since there was an error I want to reset the combobox to a different value. I've tried so many things but nothing seems to work. Here is a few of the things I tried.

cbStatus.ValueMember = "value";

cbStatus.DataSource = GetStatusCodes(); //Gets data from a data table

cbStatus.AutoSizeDropDownToBestFit = true;

//Binding

cbStatus.DataBindings.Clear();

cbStatus.DataBindings.Add("SelectedValue", bs, "status");

//I've tried all the below code and it doesn't change my combox selected row or value

//((RadGridView)this.cbStatus.EditorControl).Rows[2].IsSelected = true;

//((RadGridView)this.cbStatus.EditorControl).CurrentColumn = ((RadGridView)this.cbStatus.EditorControl).Columns[0];

//((DataTable)bs.DataSource).Rows[bs.Position]["status"] = "02";

///cbStatus.SelectedIndex = 2;

When I add a watch on the below lines I get "01" and "Complete". It should change to "02" and "Working"

((RadGridView)this.cbStatus.EditorControl).CurrentRow.Cells[0].Value "01" object {string}

((RadGridView)this.cbStatus.EditorControl).CurrentRow.Cells[1].Value "Complete" object {string}

Selectedpage dont work

Hello,

i have following forms:

Dialogform: Is a form with a PageView - the Pageview have 2 Pages in it. Page A and Page B.

Mainform: From here i'm opening the Dialogform. There are 2 Buttons - on Click the button shows the Dialogform as a Dialog (modal).

Button A: On click i want to show the Dialogform. Page A should be shown.
Button B: On click i also want to show the Dialogform but Page B should be shown.

So when i'm starting my programm and i try the Buttons for the first time, everything works fine (with PageSelected).

But when i'm clicking first Button A, then closing the Diaglogform and press Button B, it still show's me Page A. The selected Tab is the right one - Tab B is marked, but it still shows me the content from Page A.
After that i need to switch manually in the Dialogform to Page A and then back to Page B, then it shows me the right Page.

Meanwhile i found a solution, but i dont know if this is the right one. I need to dispose the Dialogform on closing and then it works fine.

Is there any other solution for this issue?

Thanks.
Shaggy

[Solved] Show Hourglass Pointer on lengthy operations

With large grids (>100'000 rows) sorting columns can take a lot of time, would be nice if the Grid would show the HourGlass Pointer during such internal operations.
Is there a way I can enable this?

[Solved] Default Context Menu

This might be a stupid question but I've been trying to figure this out for hours now.

How do I enable the default Context Menu with Copy, Paste, etc. like the ones on the demos without explicitly adding those options in code behind to the menu???
My AllowCellContextMenu is set to true, but nothing shows on right click.
I also have another form that somebody else here programmed and in the ContextMenuOpening event one grid has a Copy option already there and another grid has nothing, both have AllowCellContextMenu set to true and none of them have any code for adding items to context menu...

Please help,

Thanks
