Custom filter editor with unbound filter

I have followed the project at http://www.telerik.com/help/silverlight/raddatafilter-how-to-create-custom-filter-editors.html to create a solution that uses a RadComboBox as a custom filter for some fields in a RadDataFilter.

I have been unable however to get the value selected in the RadComboBox to update the underlying FilterDescription, with the Filter always ending up with 'Status isEqualTo <unset>' after selecting an item in the combo box.

I am sure I have followed the project correctly, and have the SelectedValue of the ComboBox bound to the Value property as below.

<DataTemplate x:Key="ComboBoxEditor">

<telerik:RadComboBox SelectedValue="{Binding Value, Mode=TwoWay, FallbackValue=null}" MinWidth="100" />

</DataTemplate>

The only difference I can see to the example code is that I am using the RadDataFilter unbound. It is not bound to a DataGrid, I am setting my own ItemPropertyDefinitions and using the resulting FilterDescriptions in other parts of the project. Is there a way to check that the DataTemplate Value is getting set when the RadComboBox value changes, or do I need to force the FilterDescription to update somehow as it is unbound? Finally, if nothing else is there a way to manually set the Value or update the FilterDescription when the ComboBox value changes?

Thanks

String editor not losing focus

I am verifying that my view's property setter is indeed setting. However, the PropertyGrid editor is not losing focus. That is, I don't see the (somewhat) expected editor exit and change indicator, that sort of thing. I don't know if it's a Xaml issue or not. Not setting the values special otherwise: I have an INotifyPropertyChanged-based view into my domain model. Nothing spectacular there.

<telerik:RadPropertyGrid Name="_rpgTranslation"

Grid.Row="1"

AutoGenerateBindingPaths="True"

telerik:StyleManager.Theme="Expression_Dark"/>

Need a System.Version custom editor

Worst case I'll go with something like a built-in string text editor. However, would be nice to fold in the validation for instance if Version.TryParse fails. How to go about doing this for the RadPropertyGrid for WPF please? Thanks!

Modifying a cell programmatically

Hi,

I've looked into this a good bit and can find nothing relevant. Any threads touching on the subject are old and the API has since changed. Basically I need to get access to an individual cell so that I can set a style for it. I would expect there to be easy access to cells in the same way that columns can be accessed.

I'm looking for something like:

myGrid.Columns[0].Rows[0].Style = myStyle;

A call like that would give me access to the top left cell of the grid.

Is there any way to do something like this?

Thanks,
Austin

Select full row issues

Hi,
(Wrongly posted on gant forum)

I want to create this behavior:

I want to be able to select only full lines, and act on double click on the line -

currently I have 2 problems with this code:

<telerik:RadGridView Name="gdTestRecords" DockPanel.Dock="Bottom" AutoGenerateColumns="False" ClipboardCopyMode ="All" MouseDoubleClick="gdTestRecords_MouseDoubleClick" SelectionMode="Extended" SelectionUnit="FullRow" MaxHeight="600" ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Visible">

1, when I double click inside the line - it selects the cell and not the line - I can only choose the line by clicking on the edge of the line.
this code will return null: RecordType st = ((FrameworkElement)e.OriginalSource).DataContext as RecordType (unless I click on the edge)
2. when I click on the vertical scroll bar more than 2 times - it acts like selecting a cell ! - I need to interpreting clicking on scroll bar as clicking on the grid surface and not clicking inside the line.

How can I fix this ?

RadPropertyGrid with DataTemplate containing RadComboBox throws Exception

I have a UserControl that contains a RadPropertyGrid and one of the property definitions for the RadPropertyGrid has the EditorTemplate set to a DataTemplate that contains a RadComboBox. When I run the application, I get the following exception:

Could not load file or assembly 'Telerik.Windows.Controls.Input, PublicKeyToken=5803cfa389c90ce7' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

If I add a RadComboBox to the UserControl, the RadComboBox displays just fine.

What am I missing?

Here is the XAML:

<UserControl x:Class="Company.KendoJavaScriptExtension.MyControl"

xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"

xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"

xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"

xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2008/xaml/presentation"

xmlns:local="clr-namespace:Company.KendoJavaScriptExtension"

mc:Ignorable="d"

d:DesignHeight="300" d:DesignWidth="300"

Name="MyToolWindow" Loaded="MyToolWindow_Loaded">

<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot">

<Grid.Resources>

<DataTemplate x:Key="comboboxTemplate">

<telerik:RadComboBox />

</DataTemplate>

</Grid.Resources>

<telerik:RadPropertyGrid x:Name="propertyGrid" Loaded="propertyGrid_Loaded" />

</Grid>

</UserControl>

In the UserControl's Loaded event handler, I have code similar to the following:

this.propertyGrid.PropertyDefinitions[5].EditorTemplate = LayoutRoot.Resources["comboboxTemplate"] as DataTemplate;

RadCartesianChart bar series axis annotation

I would like to be able to add a small shape (upward-pointing triangle) to the X axis of a bar chart under one of the bars. The build report for Microsoft Team Foundation client shows something similar to what I have in mind (see attached PNG).

As a strategy, should I try to use a CartesianCustomAnnotation, and if so can that be used with a marker in a BarSeries? How do I indicate that I want the triangle to sit under the bar marker? Or should this be an annotation attached to the axis somehow, and if so how would I add an annotation to the X axis?

thanks,
Derek

When to call LoadLayout?

I have defined a RadDocking in my MainWindow.xaml. At program startup, I want to load a layout from a resource XML file. Should I do this in the MainWindow's Loaded event?

In an ideal world, I would just include the xml in the XAML:
<include MyDockingConfiguration.xml />

Perhaps this can be done using ContentControl and a ControlTemplate?

         at the bottom of the file there is code like
<project:ContentControlEx Grid.Column="2"
    TemplateSelector="{StaticResource DetailsTemplateSelector}"

Please provide those files or where can i find demo solution projects

Thanks
