Please see attached image. What could be the cause of this? Some Fonts missing?

I'm using StyleManager for Theming.

Hi,

I used ExplorerControl to create a custom FileOpen Dialog.

Now I want to include a file preview when clicking on a file of specific type.
Unfortunately I cannot find a way to get notified by a change of selected Filename.

Is there a way to do that?

 

Best Regards,

Dominic

I'm using a RadFilePathPicker to select a file. This gives a choice of dialogs to use via the DialogType property. Each of these dialog types have the LoadDrivesInBackground property but this is not available at the RadFilePathPicker level. Is it possible and if so how can I set this property at the RadFilePathPicker control level so that whichever dialog I use has this property set?

Hello,

Our application has a requirement to automatically log a user out after a period of input inactivity, e.g. keyboard or mouse events for security reasons.

When we automatically log out a user, we also want to close any open modal dialogs in our application, including any modal dialogs open in the Telerik ReportViewer - such as the Export / Print dialogs.

Is there a way for cancel/close these modal dialogs?

I looked at the specific events such as ExportBegin  as it provides a way to cancel the export, but I need a way to close the dialogs at any time not just at the specific time the export starts.

 

Thanks,

Canice.

In WPF there is an export icon looks like a diskette. One can specify what type of export. PDF, Exel etc. then a call to Windows "Save As" dialog box. 

My question is there a way to populate/specify the file path in the "Address bar"?

Some kind of registry or something. The end user can of course alter the destination if they wish.

When using the OpenFileDialog to browse for image files using large icons, the images are not displayed with their thumbnail previews, but rather the generic image placeholder.  Is there a way to show the thumbnail previews like Windows file explorer?

I want show something like the Telerik ExplorerControl in folder-browser mode.  But in my control, I need certain folders are shown with a custom icon /view that will reflect the contents of the folder.   I love all the tree-view functionality of the control and do not want to re-invent all of that.  but I need the main pane to show my view, not Telerik's

Basically when ever a folder contains a file named "scan.yaml" and "image01.png", I want my UI to show the contents of "image01.png" as the folder instead of the regular folder icon.  (My code actually does some background processing to overlay other information on that image sometimes but that's not important for now)

Is this possible or would I need to use my own Tree View?

I thought of a few approaches.  Can you tell me which, if any of these are feasible and which would work best?

1.  Use a ControlTemplate that totally replaces the contents of`PART_MainPane` which is currently this

<historyNavigationPane:FileBrowserTabControl x:Name="PART_MainPane"
        Grid.Column="2"
        SelectedIndex="{Binding ElementName=PART_LayoutConfigurator, Path=SelectedIndex}"
        ItemsSource="{Binding Layouts}"
        ContentTemplateSelector="{StaticResource MainPaneTabControlTemplateSelector}">

 Is it feasible to use a style for ExplorerControl with a ControlTemplate  that completely tears that out and replaces that `FileBrowserTabControl` it with my own control? 

2. Use a ControlTemplate that does not show the MainPane at all and just puts my custom control next to the existing tree view.  My control could then key off its sibling's `CurrentDirectory` property

3. Try to find some way to customize how FileBrowserTabControl shows the folder contents as I described

Would any of these work.

I've attached an image of part of what my control looks like in large-icon mode.  It shows two regular folders and two of the "special" folders that I mentioned

(Also I looked for a question tag for ExplorerControl but could not find one so I tagged "General Discussion")

I coded the following XAML

<FileDialogs:ExplorerControl x:Name="ecDeployStuff" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="12,28,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" CurrentDirectoryPath="C:\lala\Main\zzzDevelopment\abc" />

when I launch the WPF app it shows as the C: drive

am I missing another property to make the CurrentDirectoryPath work?
