Cant able to clear filter value in GridViewDateTimeColumn

HI,

I am not able to clear filter value in GridViewDateTimeColumn while pressing delete key or backspace key. Instead of clear it resets to default date. Whether can we set any key down event explicitly in that DateTimePIcker or was there any other way to clear filter value when press delete key.

Accessing child elements of a Custom ListView Item

Hi Guys

I'm want to create a listview of items where the item has a waiting bar which appears when the item is pressed and disappears again once a long running process kicked off by the press has completed. I have successfully built the custom item but when I go to the ItemMouseClick event of the listview I'm not sure how to access the waiting bar element so that I can make it visible and set it running.

Many thanks in advance

regards
Ian Carson

DatabindingComplete event not firing upon datasource changes after latest update

Once updating to the latest version of the Winform controls the databindingcomplete event appears to not fire for us upon removing a column from the datasource of our RadGrid.

The application simply loads a CSV file we specify, and populates the grid with all the columns found in the CSV and we give the user the option to remove some of those columns. The grid is set to AutoGenerate the columns since each CSV file could be slightly different.

We were previously running our application on the 2012_1_12_0215 version and we just updated to the 2013 Q1 controls (2013_1_220). To ensure that this is not something in our application I have created a simple winform app that mimics this part of our application and when I use the latest dll's, the databinding complete event does not fire after a column is removed, but when I reference the older dll's, the event does fire.

If you need to see a sample of this, please provide me with somewhere to upload my sample application so you can see the behavior.
