[Solved] How to printpreview contents of RadTextbox?

In my app a use can load a text file in a radTextbox (logs, etc.) I want to print/preview the contents but get this error;

"Unable to cast object of type 'Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadTextBox' to type 'Telerik.WinControls.UI.IPrintable'."

I presume the RadPrintDocument cannot handle this type of control. Is there anyway to do this or any other rad control I could use to load the contents of a text file that would work with the RadPrintDocument/print preview feature

DataEditFormatString does not seem to work

Hi Guys

I have a RadGridView with only one editable column
The editable column is a GridViewDecimalColumn. I have set the FormatString property to be "{0:P}" and it successfully appears as a Percentage. However when I set the DataEditFormatString to be"{0:P}", it does not appear as a Percentage when editing.

How is the DataEditFormatString meant to work as I cannot find much information about what it is meant to do or how to use it?

Thanks

Bran

Tool tip for Win forms?

Sirs:
I'm working on a complicated WinForms application where I'd like to provide some sort of tool tips to the users as to what some of the fields do. Can you suggest an approach?

I've just purchased the Rad Suite, and I'm excited about the possibilities but I don't see any WinForm tool tip functionality.

I was thinking about putting a small 'help' icon on the form next to a control (text box, drop down, etc) and letting them click on that to get a popup tip, like a message box (but not as obtrusive?)

[Solved] Can not find file specified with latest upgrade

Nevermind, I removed the application files, then removed the references, then add the references back again. That fixed it. I'm not sure why, but, it worked. Later - Art

I recently downloaded your latest upgrade and after re-entering all the references into my app, I get the following error when I try to open a form with a Telerik grid in it.
An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: Could not load file or assembly 'Telerik.WinControls.GridView, Version=2013.1.220.20, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=5bb2a467cbec794e' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

Got any ideas?

RadMaskedEditBox numeric masktype general mask

I am attempting to make a masked edit box that accepts an integer. Simply specifying MaskType of numeric accomplishes this. I do not want commas displayed as seperators though. Specifying a Mask of "g" for general accomplishes this. However, when one enters digits into the masked edit box, and then tries to backspace the digits are replaced with zeroes, and delete does not work at all.

So if I type "12345" I see "12345" in the text box. But if the "5" was a typo and I try to use backspace I get "12340", and if I try to use delete it does nothing at all.

New data bound row registered through DI source

Hello,

I am learning how to wire up a new row with my backing data source list. In and of itself, straightforward enough, the objects constituting the backing list need to have a parameterless constructor. Simple enough.

Now for the twist. I have an architecture in the view that wires up some bbv EventBroker events, which ordinarily (ideally, preferred) wire up through a Ninject Dependency Injection Kernel OnActivation, I register some pub/sub events to route communication between objects behind the scenes.

So... Is it possible for me to wire up the RadGridView object-factory (object-provider? -context?) in such a way that I can factory-create the object(s) backing the row(s) being created?

Thank you once again for the rich UX API, and thank you...

Regards,

Michael Powell
