Would it be possible to get a code sample in C# of adding an exception with visible set to false to a recurring appointment? I can't seem to get it to work in my project and I can't find any clear cut examples anywhere.

Thanks,
Matt

How to set BackColor of ToolStripStatusLabel in custom theme?

I have a custom theme (.tssp file) that is an exact copy of the built-in Windows7 theme. I have a RadForm with a StatusStrip. The StatusStrip contains a ToolStripStatusLabel. I need to change the default BackColor of the ToolStripStatusLabel in VisualStyleBuilder but I cannot figure out how to do it.

Please help!

Thanks

Losing Margin after HTML import

I am using IncrementParagraphLeftIndent() to increase the left margin. When I export using the html provider I can see the margin has been set in the Style for that run.

<style type="text/css">
.p_6F87C71A { margin: 0px 0px 0px 28px;text-align: left;text-indent: 0pt;padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px; }
.s_6BF1D20F { font-family: 'Calibri';font-style: normal;font-size: 16px;color: #000000; }
</style><p class="p_6F87C71A"><span class="s_6BF1D20F">This text should be indented</span></p>

However, when I import using the html provider the margin setting is lost. When I export again I can see the margin is set to 0.

<style type="text/css">
.p_384D933F { margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;text-align: left;text-indent: 0pt;padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px; }
.s_6BF1D20F { font-family: 'Calibri';font-style: normal;font-size: 16px;color: #000000; }
</style><p class="p_384D933F"><span class="s_6BF1D20F">This text should be indented</span></p>

Here's the code I'm using for Import/Export:

        private static HtmlFormatProvider _htmlFormatProvider;
 
        private static void InitHtmlFormatProvider()
        {
            _htmlFormatProvider = new HtmlFormatProvider();
            var htmlExportSettings = new HtmlExportSettings();
            htmlExportSettings.DocumentExportLevel = DocumentExportLevel.Fragment;
            _htmlFormatProvider.ExportSettings = htmlExportSettings;
        }
 
        private void commandBarButtonLoad_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            string text = File.ReadAllText(@"c:\temp\RichText.txt");
            RadDocument document = _htmlFormatProvider.Import(text);
            radRichTextBox1.Document = document;
        }
 
 
        private void commandBarButtonSave_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            string html = _htmlFormatProvider.Export(radRichTextBox1.Document);
            File.WriteAllText(@"c:\temp\RichText.txt", html);            
        }

Bookshelf demo application

Hello.

Very nice looking Bookshelf demo application screenshots are everywhere on site, but there are screenshots only.
I would like to create app that looks like Bookshelf demo app. Could you attach sample project with main form looks like main form of Bookshelf, so I can use it as a base for my MetroUI-style app.

Thanks.

[Solved] Change TextAlignment of edited GridViewMaskBoxColumn

Please refer to attached images for clarification if needed.

I have a couple of GridViewMaskBoxColumns in child rows of my RadGridView control. I'm setting the TextAlignment of the column to MiddleCenter (see GridViewMaskBoxColumn_1.jpg). This sets the alignment of the displayed value as expected.

However, I would also like data to be centered when editing the data. As GridViewMaskBoxColumn_2.jpg show the data is left aligned.

I've tried to create a custom editor but the examples I've found here are a little over my head, in C# and don't seem to relate to what I'm wanting to do anyway.

Can someone show me how to either get to the property I need to set or else show me how (in VB.NET) to create a custom editor that would do this for me.

Thanks.

Wizard Page Header Background Color

I'm having trouble setting the background color for the Wizard Page Header. It seems all the combinations of "on form load" don't make a difference and keep the color an aqua blue color. What are the steps to override the background color of the header?

The strange behavior of Redo method.

Hi,

It seems that Redo method is acting like Undo method.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong?

private void btnRedo_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)

{

_richTextBox.Redo();

_richTextBox.Focus();

}

Node Removing event?

I have a variety of actions that need to take place prior to NodeRemoved event firing. I will typically use the Gridview_RowsChanging, NotifyCollectionChangedAction.Replace or NotifyCollectionChangedAction.Remove (as an example) which work well and I'm looking for something similar to capture the action of a treeview context menu (Add/Delete).

Any thoughts?
