GridViewDataColumn DataType not sorting correctly

I have a gridview that is built from a collection of records. I set the datatype of each column, and I can confirm that the datatype is correct in the gridview itself (by checking in debug). That being said, when I sort on certain numeric type columns - the grid is treating it as a string. Am I missing some kind of property? Here is my code.

var columns = mainViewModel.Records.First()

.Properties

.Select((x, i) => new { Name = x.Name, DataType = x.DataType, Index = i })

.ToArray();

foreach (var column in columns)

{

var binding = new Binding(string.Format("Properties[{0}].Value", column.Index));

GridViewDataColumn col = new GridViewDataColumn();

col.UniqueName = column.Name;

col.Header = column.Name;

col.DataMemberBinding = binding;

col.DataType = column.DataType;

col.IsSortable = true;

fleetGrid.Columns.Add(col);

}

Styling the new Metro theme for RadComboBox

Hi all,

I'm very excited to see the new Metro UI theme released with the latest Telerik controls. I need to change the color from the blue that shows up on selection and cannot find a way to customize the them for Metro UI in my WPF app. I have worked with custom themes in Silverlight without any problem, however, haven't had any luck in WPF following the tutorial at http://www.telerik.com/help/silverlight/common-styling-apperance-themes-custom-theme-project-telerik-approach.html .

The WPF link is currently broken:
http://www.telerik.com/help/wpf/common-styling-apperance-themes-custom-theme-project-telerik-approach.html

I need to replace the blue with an orange on all the Metro themed RadControls I use; specifically, changing the color of the ToggleButtonBackgroundChecked border.

I found this excerpt from the link http://blogs.telerik.com/blogs/posts/11-06-22/metro-ui-for-radcontrols-for-silverlight-and-wpf.aspx :
- The theme also utilizes a brand new approach for theming – palettes. It will allow both easy changing the accented colors as well as overall easy, real-time customization

Thanks in advance for you help!

Duplicate values on X-Axis

If I zoom in to the chart I end up with multiple X-Axis ticks with duplicate values.

I have stepped through the LinearAxisModel code using Reflector and found that in the GenerateTicks method it has a ZoomWidth of ~50.0 and a MajorStep of 20.0.
Which over a range of min = 0, Max = 140 ends up with it generating far too many ticks for the data range.

Is there a way to control the number of ticks that are generated so that only one tick per distinct data value are displayed?

Thanks

ScatterLineSeries render issue

Hi Telerik,

I am using ScaterLIneSeriers because our axes (x&Y) are linear axies. We add multiple ScatterLineSeries dynamically using code. We see following list of issues.
1. There is no option to sort the axis data automatically.
2. We thought if we sort them and add it it will work fine. But it does not cover all the cases because our series are sparsed. When there is sparsed data and some data does not overlap and the sequence are not done automatically the graph looks very ugly.
3. So, We tried the workaround of creating dummy series with all the points and add that as first series and set their visibility to false and it did not help that much because the rendering of series is not same as the ordering of adding the series.
4. The ScaterLine series does no render same as excel when the data is not sorted and the data has both positive and negative values.

We need to know how to solve this issues. Is there any patches available.

Thanks
Mohan.

Rad Grid Localization Issue

Hi,
I am facing issue while working with Localization, my scenario is as follows:
=> I am having Rad DataGrid and we are binding the columns dynamically, while binding I am handling the localization in code behind from the resx file.
The scenario in which I am facing issue is for certain columns I need to change color of some rows depending on certain condition. To achieve this I hardcode the column name and it was working fine by using a converter. But as I can't hardcode the column name I need to use localization and get the results which I am not able to achieve. here is the sample code how we I approached it when I hardcoded

<telerik:RadGridView.RowStyle>

<Style TargetType="telerik:GridViewRow">

<Setter Property="Background" Value="{Binding Status,Converter={StaticResource rowcolorConveter}}"></Setter>

<Setter Property="Background" >

<Setter.Value>

<MultiBinding Converter="{StaticResource ABCConveter}">

<Binding Path="abc"/>//Hardcode Column Name

<Binding Path="DataContext.SelectedView" RelativeSource="{RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type UserControl}}"/>

</MultiBinding>

</Setter.Value>

</Setter>

</Style>

</telerik:RadGridView.RowStyle

If u observe I hardcode the "abc" value while binding.I want to pull this hardcode colum name from from resx file and get the value of the column.

How to add sub menu items to RadSplitButton (or RadRibbonSplitButton)

Hello,

Started from how-to-bind-custom-observablecollection-to-radribbonsplitbutton, now I want to add a sub menu item.

I could still use a RadMenuItem-based object for the sub menu item? I will also know what the parent menu item should be.

However, I don't know which elements, properties, etc, to add the sub menu item to?

Thank you...

Regards,

Michael Powell
