Hi There,

I am very new to Telerik winform controls and trying to use RadRibbonBar and would like to get all the child elements (i.e. start menu items, buttons, group boxes etc) from the ribbon bar in a control collection. I want to enable and disable the specific controls based on user rights.

Please let me know if there is any possibility to get around that.

Cheers,

Robert

Printing and Print Preview

Is there a flag or argument that would differentiate the purpose in the IPrintable:PrintPage function.

I would like to modify what the print preview looks like as opposed to what is actually being sent to the printer. Our printers prints everything in Landscape, even though the the page orientation is Portrait. (yes its a specialized printer) . So I would like the user to be able to read it on the screen in Horizontal, but when I send it to the printer itself, Id like the text to be Vertical.

For PrintPreview I am using the RadGdiGraphics, and Telerik.WinControls.Primitives.TextParams.

Currently I have it set as

tp.textOrientation = Orientation.Vertical

Which is what needs to be sent to the printer, but for print preview I would like

tp.textOrientation = Orientation.Horizontal

-------

Could this be accomplished using a PrintController. I've see limited documentation on that, and no examples, or explanation of exactly what it does, or allow you to programatically control.

Thanks in advance.

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.

[Solved] 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
