I am using a somewhat special OLAP cube with a calculation that returns textual information for pivot cells. Your pivotgrid correctly shows the text, but the text does not wrap. Only so much text is shown as fits in the column's width. Is there a setting that I missed here?

Thanks
Sjoerd

Add ToolWindow DockLayoutPanel Button

Hi Telerik

I'm using the following code to add button to the tabstrip at the top of some of the tool windows in my RadDock. The button adds no problem and the events for the button work fine. I would like the button to appear at the right hand edge off the tabstrip rather than its position at the moment (which is just after the image I am also adding). See the attached screenshot.

How can I move the button to the Righthand side of the tabstrip?

Many thanks in advance
Regards
Ian Carson

public void SetToolWindowElements()

{

foreach (ToolWindow tw in rdockMain.DockWindows)

{

if

(tw != twTemplates && tw != twExecutables && tw != twEquityFunds && tw != twInstrumentLibrary && tw != twScheduleLibrary)

continue;

var iconImage = new ImagePrimitive {Image = Resources.alpha_logo24}; //, Padding = new Padding(4, 0, 3, 0)};

var refreshButton = new RadButtonElement {Image = Resources.Refresh20, ImageAlignment = ContentAlignment.MiddleCenter};

tw.TabStrip.Height = 28;

if (tw == twInstrumentLibrary)

{

refreshButton.Click += InstrumentLibraryRefresh;

}

else if (tw == twEquityFunds || tw == twScheduleLibrary)

{

refreshButton.Click += ScheduleEquityLibraryRefresh;

}

if (((ToolTabStrip) tw.TabStrip).CaptionElement.Children[2].Children[0].GetType() != typeof (ImagePrimitive))

{

((ToolTabStrip) tw.TabStrip).CaptionElement.Children[2].Children.Insert(0, iconImage);

}

if (tw != twEquityFunds && tw != twInstrumentLibrary && tw != twScheduleLibrary) continue;

if (((ToolTabStrip)tw.TabStrip).CaptionElement.Children[2].Children[4].GetType() != typeof(RadButtonElement))

{

((ToolTabStrip)tw.TabStrip).CaptionElement.Children[2].Children.Insert(4, refreshButton);

}

DocumentSpellChecker loading several binaries

When we new up a DocuemntSpellChecker it loads several of our binaries into memory and we don't know why?

We create one like this:

DocumentSpellChecker sp = new DocumentSpellChecker();

As soon as we hit that code all of the binaries that are using a control with a DocumentSpellChecker are loaded into memory. This causes problems because we do a check on those binaries later in the app when we attempt to load a form from them. We check if the binary is up to date and if not replace it. We can't do that, however, because the documentSpellChecker has already loaded them into memory.

Any ideas?

BestFitColumns problem

Hi,
I've got a grid with 22 columns, I want to be able to show the columns with a horizontal scroll bar,
so I've set autosizecolumnmode to 'none' and used 'bestfitcolumns' method.

the problem is that all the content got corrupted and is not showing properly (I've attached a screenshot to this thread),

even when I don't use the 'bestfitcolumns' method the content is corrupted (only when I set 'autosizecolumnmode' to 'fill' the content shows right - but then I can't use the horizontal scroll bar)

how can I achieve the desired result?

Gridview Excel Export issue

Hello Team
i used Gridview excel export to some xxxx.xls , Export is done, but instead of exporting the gridview columns to excel columns, it is exporting everything to one single excel column, is there any setting to be done with the gridview,

Can you please help me

my Code is

var exporter = new ExportToExcelML(this.radgridview1);

                string fileName = "C:\\ACDV.xls";
                exporter.SheetName = "Sheet";
                exporter.SheetMaxRows = ExcelMaxRows._65536 ;
                exporter.RunExport(fileName);

the same export function to .csv is working fine, but the data is coming in enclosed quotes, which exported to database table showing data in enclosed quotes something like

"1" "2.5" "3" "5" "6"
"2" "7.1" "0" "6" "7"

i need data without enclosed quotes, there is an option in ajax gridview with option enclosedquotes=true/false but in winforms rad gridview there is no such option , please help me in achieving either of one method stated above

Themes not loading correctly

I've tried following the documentation at http://www.telerik.com/help/winforms/vsb_thememanagerloadresource.html to find a solution to thie following problem, but without any luck, so I hope someone can help.

I have a MyTheme.xml file, which I've added to Resources and set Build action to Embedded Resource.

I use the radThemeManager to load it, and I've tried loading it both as file and as resource, but I experience problems in both cases.

If I load the theme as a file, I get an error at startup, but it looks like the theme is applied correctly to my controls.

If I load the theme as a resource, I don't get the error, but the theme is not applied correctly, and my controls have weird shapes and colours. This only appear at run time, at design time everything looks fine.

I suspect there is something wrong in my theme location. My UserContol project is in a namespace called MyCompany.MyControls. Is the name of the theme location
        MyCompany.MyContols.MyUserControl.MyTheme.xml
or     MyCompany.MyContols.MyTheme.xml
or something else?

In which folder do I place the MyTheme.xml file? Does it matter, as long as it is added as a resource?

Thank you!

Regards, Jill-Connie Lorentsen

Is this possible?

RadDockPanel Help

I am trying to get my Expander control to appear on top of my Windows Forms Host on my main page and have the Windows Forms Host Fill all remaining area.

However, the Expander appears to the side of it, not on top.

Here is, basically, what I have so far. I left out the extra stuff.

<telerik:RadDockPanel x:Name="LaunchScreenDockPanel" LastChildFill="True">

<telerik:RadExpander x:Name="UserInfo" ExpandDirection="Up" IsExpanded="True"></telerik:RadExpander>

<WindowsFormsHost HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Name="windowsFormsHost1" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" >

<wincontrols:RadPanorama x:Name="LaunchPadPanorama" Size="200,400" RowsCount="2" MinimumColumns="2" ShowGroups="True" Dock="Fill">
