AutoComplete DropDownList position

Hi,

If the vertical scrollbar is used to scroll the list of dropdown items and then whilst the drop down is still displayed the applications main window is moved, the dropdown panel remains at it's former position and does not follow the location of the autocomplete edit box.

Is there a way to control this so that it either moves with the form or closes before the form is moved in the same way that a combobox would?

Attached screenshot illustrates the problem when using the WPF demo controls application.

PropertyGrid values' font size will not change

Hello,

We are using version 2012.2.607.40 of your WPF controls. Our application supports several font sizes so we updated many Telerik styles and templates for the PropertyGrid to use the dynamic font size. Our changes worked for the property names (they all show the correct size now), but some of the values do not. We do not see where the value templates are so that we can change them.

How can we get to the right templates for the PropertyGrid values so we can change them to use our dynamic size -for all the value types used in the property grid? Or, is there another way to accomplish this? I've attached a picture so you can visualize the problem. You can see some of the values have the larger size but others do not.

Thanks!
-Mark

Docking Empty when runing without debug

When I run my program with debug then everything works normal, but whenever I run without debug or from the exe it dosn't display anything. Actually it tells me it is empty when I have already added the controls in xaml, they are static not dynamic at all. It still says all my controls exist and I can use them but they not displayed at all. This used to work but I made not changes that would break it. I do however toggle it's visibility but even when I have it always visible it dosn't work. It's like it is not seeing anything under the RadDocking tag.

<telerik:RadDocking Background="#edf3fa" x:Name="dmManager" Grid.Row="1" Margin="0,0,0,33" Padding="0,0,0,0">

<telerik:RadDocking.DocumentHost>

<telerik:RadSplitContainer>

<telerik:RadPaneGroup>

(Assume controls)

</telerik:RadPaneGroup>

</telerik:RadSplitContainer>

</telerik:RadDocking.DocumentHost>

<telerik:RadSplitContainer InitialPosition="DockedLeft">

<telerik:RadPaneGroup>

(Assume controls)

</telerik:RadPaneGroup>

</telerik:RadSplitContainer>

<telerik:RadSplitContainer InitialPosition="DockedRight">

<telerik:RadPaneGroup>

(Assume controls)

</telerik:RadPaneGroup>

</telerik:RadSplitContainer>

<telerik:RadSplitContainer x:Name="Bottom" InitialPosition="DockedBottom">

<telerik:RadPaneGroup>

(Assume controls)

</telerik:RadPaneGroup>

</telerik:RadSplitContainer>

</telerik:RadDocking>

Binding ObservableCollection to ItemSource

What is the proper way of coding standard to bind the ObservableCollection to ItemSource?
The case i'm facing is i have multiple lineseries, therefore, i created an ObservableCollection<IEnumberable><T>> that contains array of ObservableCollection<T>. i make the ObservableCollection<IEnumberable><T>> binded to the itemsource of lineSeries with INotifyPropertyChanged.

Code Snippet:
XAML:

<chartView:LineSeries x:Name="Item1" ItemsSource="{Binding Item[0]}" ValueBinding="Value" CategoryBinding="Counter" />

<chartView:LineSeries x:Name="Item2" ItemsSource="{Binding Item[1]}" ValueBinding="Value" CategoryBinding="Counter" />

<chartView:LineSeries x:Name="Item3" ItemsSource="{Binding Item[2]}" ValueBinding="Value" CategoryBinding="Counter" />

<chartView:LineSeries x:Name="Item4" ItemsSource="{Binding Item[3]}" ValueBinding="Value" CategoryBinding="Counter" />

<chartView:LineSeries x:Name="Item5" ItemsSource="{Binding Item[4]}" ValueBinding="Value" CategoryBinding="Counter" />

C#

public ObservableCollection<IEnumerable<GraphPlot>> Item

{

get { return m_item; }

set

{

m_item = value;

OnPropertyChanged("Item");

}

i have an error "observablecollection collection was modified enumeration operation may not execute" using the code above.
is this the right way to bind it to multiple itemsource with only 1 Properties at real-time? any recommendation?

[Solved] setting IsOpen=true makes RadContextMenu staying opened

<Rectangle Stroke="Black" StrokeThickness="1" Fill="#DADADA" Height="8" Width="8">

<Rectangle.Triggers>

<EventTrigger RoutedEvent="MouseLeftButtonDown">

<BeginStoryboard>

<Storyboard>

<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="IsOpen" Storyboard.Target="{x:Reference ContextMenu}">

<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame>

<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame.Value>

<sys:Boolean>True</sys:Boolean>

</DiscreteObjectKeyFrame.Value>

</DiscreteObjectKeyFrame>

</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>

</Storyboard>

</BeginStoryboard>

</EventTrigger>

</Rectangle.Triggers>

<telerik:RadContextMenu.ContextMenu>

<telerik:RadContextMenu x:Name="ContextMenu" ShowDelay="0">

<telerik:RadMenuItem Header="Reset value" />

<telerik:RadMenuItem Header="Set binding" />

</telerik:RadContextMenu>

</telerik:RadContextMenu.ContextMenu>

</Rectangle>

Click on the rectangle, then click somewhere else and radcontextmenu stays opened. This way you can open multiple contexmenus simultaneously

This does not happen with regular contextmenu.

Persistence Framework kills binding

Hello,

I bind 2 Controls

<telerik:RadToggleButton x:Name="ShowLogButton" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="1" Content="..."></telerik:RadToggleButton>

<telerik:RadListBox ItemsSource="{Binding Path=Log}" DisplayMemberPath="Description" Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="2" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" Height="70" Visibility="{Binding ElementName=ShowLogButton, Path=IsChecked, Converter={StaticResource ControlVisibilityConverter}}">

</telerik:RadListBox>

Follow Visible attribute, after saving and loading my window with Persistence Framework my toggle button is broken and dont works anymore

This code helps


<telerik:RadToggleButton x:Name="ShowLogButton"  Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="1" Content="..."></telerik:RadToggleButton>
<telerik:RadListBox ItemsSource="{Binding Path=Log}" DisplayMemberPath="Description" Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="2" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" Height="70" Visibility="{Binding ElementName=ShowLogButton, Path=IsChecked,  Converter={StaticResource ControlVisibilityConverter}}">

<telerik:PersistenceManager.SerializationOptions>
    <telerik:SerializationMetadataCollection>
        <telerik:PropertyNameMetadata Condition="Except" Expression="Visibility" SearchType="PropertyName" />
    </telerik:SerializationMetadataCollection>
</telerik:PersistenceManager.SerializationOptions>
</telerik:RadListBox>

Should i use this for every binded Porperty? Can i exclude any binded properties from serialisation ?

[Solved] Initial sorting of grid not working

Hi,

I have a simple grid defined like this:

<telerik:RadGridView Name="OrdersGridView" SelectionMode="Single" ItemsSource="{Binding PagedSource, ElementName=OrdersPager}" AutoGenerateColumns="False" ShowInsertRow="True" UseLayoutRounding="False" CanUserDeleteRows="False" RowEditEnded="OrdersGridViewRowEditEnded" AddingNewDataItem="OrdersGridViewAddingNewDataItem">

<telerik:RadGridView.SortDescriptors>

<telerik:SortDescriptor Member="Id" SortDirection="Descending" />

</telerik:RadGridView.SortDescriptors>

<telerik:RadGridView.Columns>

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding Id}" Header="{x:Static properties:Resources.Id}" UniqueName="Id" IsReadOnly="True" />

<telerik:GridViewComboBoxColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding status}" Header="{x:Static properties:Resources.Status}" UniqueName="Status" ItemsSource="{Binding Statuses}" SelectedValueMemberPath="Key" DisplayMemberPath="Value" />

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding SocialSecurityNumber}" Header="{x:Static properties:Resources.SocialSecurityNumber}" UniqueName="SocialSecurityNumber" />

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding VisitDate}" Header="{x:Static properties:Resources.VisitDate}" UniqueName="VisitDate" />

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding Department}" Header="{x:Static properties:Resources.Department}" UniqueName="Department" />

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding Information}" Header="{x:Static properties:Resources.Information}" UniqueName="Information" />

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding Recipient}" Header="{x:Static properties:Resources.Recipient}" UniqueName="Recipient" />

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding OrderDate}" Header="{x:Static properties:Resources.OrderDate}" UniqueName="OrderDate" DataFormatString="{} {0:yyyy-MM-dd}" />

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding OrderedBy}" Header="{x:Static properties:Resources.OrderedBy}" UniqueName="OrderedBy" />

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding ContactEmail}" Header="{x:Static properties:Resources.Email}" UniqueName="Email" />

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding ContactPhone}" Header="{x:Static properties:Resources.Phone}" UniqueName="Phone" />

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding DocumentId}" Header="{x:Static properties:Resources.DocumentId}" UniqueName="DocumentId" />

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding LoanDate}" Header="{x:Static properties:Resources.LoanDate}" UniqueName="LoanDate" DataFormatString="{} {0:yyyy-MM-dd}" />

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding LoanProcessedBy}" Header="{x:Static properties:Resources.LoanProcessedBy}" UniqueName="LoanProcessedBy" />

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding ReturnDate}" Header="{x:Static properties:Resources.ReturnDate}" UniqueName="ReturnDate" DataFormatString="{} {0:yyyy-MM-dd}" />

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding ReturnProcessedBy}" Header="{x:Static properties:Resources.ReturnProcessedBy}" UniqueName="ReturnProcessedBy" />

</telerik:RadGridView.Columns>

</telerik:RadGridView>

<telerik:RadDataPager Grid.Row="1" Name="OrdersPager" Source="{Binding Path=Orders}" DisplayMode="First, Previous, Next, Last, Text" IsTotalItemCountFixed="True" />

The data is initiated like this:

Orders = new QueryableDataServiceCollectionView<Order>(ordersContext, ordersQuery) { PageSize = 20, AutoLoad = true };

When I add sorting to the grid (as seen in the xaml above) the grid on first load displays both the 20 orders that should be in the grid and the 20 orders that should have been in the grid if there was no initial sorting defined. When I step to the next page and then back again to the first page, only the 20 orders that should be in the grid remains.

So for instance, the orders in the grid on the first page might initialy be:
1, 2, 3, ..., 20, 100, 99, 98, ..., 81

But it should be:
100, 99, 98, ..., 81

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

Best regards
Linus
