Hi, I have a radgridview with ItemSource as binding and all but one column with DataMemberBinding. The exception column is the one which I would like to get user input. However, after typing some stuffs into a cell of that column and pressing enter, the cell will become blank again. Is there a solution or workaround for this?

Thank you for your attention!

Search as you type on formatted values

Hello,

I'm currently doing a POC of the use of the RadGridView in our product and we are quite stopped right now.

Indeed, we are using the RadGridView with a binded DataTable containing raw values, columns are unknown untill data is recieved so we use a grid column binding attached property to setup our columns.
We are formatting the cell values using a datatemplate that uses a converter doing custom formatting for us (we cannot use DataFormatString property since there is some complicated Data to format).

Now, we want to introduce a "Search as you type" feature, based on the Demo sample.
This is very well working but as we understand this, it filters the rows based on the binded DataTable raw values.
But as we are doing UI, the user is not seeing those values, but the formatted ones, so he will expect to filter on formatted values somehow.

We don't know if our current design is allowing that but if you have any solution regarding this problem, we'll be glad to hear that.

Regards,,

Benoît

EditorTemplate Focus

I have defined two datatemplate:

<DataTemplate x:Key="doubleTemplate">

<local:DoubleTextBox propertyGrid:AutoBindBehavior.UpdateBindingOnElementLoaded="Text"/>

</DataTemplate>

and

<DataTemplate x:Key="usrDoubleTemplate">

<GridName="gridRoot">

<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

<ColumnDefinition/>

<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/>

</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

<local:DoubleTextBox propertyGrid:AutoBindBehavior.UpdateBindingOnElementLoaded="Text"/>

<Label Loaded="LabelUnit_Loaded" Grid.Column="1" Margin="2,0" ContentStringFormat="[{0}]"

propertyGrid:AutoBindBehavior.UpdateBindingOnElementLoaded="DataContext"/>

</Grid>

</DataTemplate>

When enter in editing mode with keyboard, in the first Datatemplate takes the focus on the TextBox, in the second Datatemplate does not take the focus on the TextBox.

The reason may be the grid?

Any solutions?

Test Automation: In Coded UI, how can I identify a RadGridView as a whole nested object model

My environment
Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate with Telerik coded UI extension setup
Telerik UI for WPF 2014 Q1

My question is -- for test automation purpose, can I (how can I) get the data inside a Telerik grid as a whole nested object model?

See the attached picture, it shows how coded UI identify a telerik gridview instance. I put the coded UI identifier on a gridview control. It identify the cell and its property. But that's not what I want. I want to be able to get the data in a grid as in a whole object model way, so I can get the specific row object then cell object.

Table Tab Stops with Read Only Ranges

Hi,

I have a table that uses read only ranges for the first cell in each column and row to prevent user input. I have an issue with the tab stopping not entering the last cell of each row but if I tab again it tabs to the next row. This is due to starting my read only ranges in these cells in order to make the first cell in each row completely non-editable, if I remove them it works fine.

Is there any way to bring the tab stop back to these cells or an alternative solution to making my headers read only?

Here's the code I'm using to generate the table using two string arrays for the definition:

01.Table table = new Table();

02.table.StyleName = RadDocumentDefaultStyles.DefaultTableGridStyleName;

03.TableRow headerRow = new TableRow();

04.TableCell cornerCell = new TableCell();

05.

06.Paragraph readOnlyPara = new Paragraph();

07.ReadOnlyRangeStart range = new ReadOnlyRangeStart();

08.range.AnnotationID = 1;

09.readOnlyPara.Inlines.Add(range);

10.cornercell.Blocks.Add(readOnlyPara);

11.cornerCell.Background = Colors.LightGray;

12.headerRow.Cells.Add(cornerCell);

13.table.AddRow(headerRow);

14.

15.//Add the column headers, which are an array of strings

16.foreach (string header in headers)

17.{

18. TableCell cell = new TableCell();

19. cell.Background = Colors.LightGray;

20. Paragraph p = new Paragraph();

21. Span text;

22.

23. //telerik paragraph cannot take empty span

24. if(String.IsNullOrEmpty(header))

25. text = new Span(" ");

26. else

27. text = new Span(header);

28. text.FontWeight = FontWeights.Bold;

29.

30. p.Inlines.Add(text);

31. cell.Blocks.Add(p);

32. headerRow.Cells.Add(cell);

33.}

34.

35.//questions are an array of strings

36.for (int i = 0; i < questions.Length; i++)

37.{

38. //Add the first cell of each Row

39. string question = questions[i];

40. TableRow row = new TableRow();

41. TableCell cell = new TableCell();

42. cell.Background = Colors.LightGray;

43. Paragraph p = new Paragraph();

44.

45. Span text = new Span(question);

46. text.FontWeight = FontWeights.Bold;

47.

48. p.Inlines.Add(text);

49. cell.Blocks.Add(p);

50. row.Cells.Add(cell);

51.

52. //Add the remaining cells of the row for each header

53. for (int y = 0; y < headers.Length; y++)

54. {

55. string header = headers[y];

56. TableCell answerCell = new TableCell();

57. Paragraph answerP = new Paragraph();

58. //End the read only at the start of each answering row

59. if (y == 0)

60. {

61. ReadOnlyRangeEnd rangeEnd = new ReadOnlyRangeEnd();

62. rangeEnd.AnnotationID = i + 1;

63. answerP.Inlines.Add(rangeEnd);

64. }

65.

66. //Start the read only range at the end of the answering row.

67. if (y == headers.Length - 1 && i != questions.Length - 1)

68. {

69. ReadOnlyRangeStart rangestart = new ReadOnlyRangeStart();

70. rangestart.AnnotationID = (i + 2);

71. answerP.Inlines.Add(rangestart);

72. }

73.

74. answerCell.Blocks.Add(answerP);

75. row.Cells.Add(answerCell);

76. }

77.

78. table.AddRow(row);

79.}

80.

81.section.Blocks.Add(table);

Many Thanks,
Chris

TimePicker with common standard layout

Hi,

I am looking for a way to get a TimePicker which looks like the standard one with spinbuttons to increase/decrease time.
Does Telerik provide this?
If not, how can this be achieved?

Of course I could build my own from scratch, but I expect this is not neccessary with a library like this.

Best Regards, Matthias

Coded UI Test error for GridView

I have a WPF application with GridView which has a button for each row:
<telerik:RadGridView x:Name="radGridView" Margin="8" ItemsSource="{Binding Quotes, Mode=TwoWay}" ShowGroupPanel="False" AutoGenerateColumns="False" Height="250">
<telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
<telerik:GridViewDataColumn>
<telerik:GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Button Content="Download Quote"></Button>
</DataTemplate>
</telerik:GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
</telerik:GridViewDataColumn>
<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding QuoteId}"/>
<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding ProductModelId}"/>
<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding TechnicalPrice}"/>
<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding ModelPrice}"/>
</telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
</telerik:RadGridView>

After using record and playback of actions to click the button, when replaying back the test, I get an error in regards to "Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UITest.Extension.UITestControlNotFoundException: The playback failed to find the control with the given search properties. Additional Details: "
Is GridView supported even?
According to this page, it should have been by now http://www.telerik.com/help/wpf/coded-ui-support.html

Is RadGridView able to support Coded UI Testing and any suggestions on how to fix it?
