RadPDFViewer Crashes IDE during design time

VS 2010 Pro (ver 4.0.3019 SP1Rel) crashes when I add the attribute DocumentSource="" to the XAML.

My steps are as follows:

Create new Telerik > Windows > C# RadControls WPF Application (>net 3.5 or 4.0)
Choose Telerik.Windows.Controls.FixedDocumentViewers
Auto-Selects Telerik.Windows.Controls
Auto-Selects Telerik.Windows.Documents.Fixed
Click Finish
Add <telerik:RadPdfViewer HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch"></telerik:RadPdfViewer> to Window XAML

Then, as step 7, as soon as I add the attribute DocumentSource="", the ide crashes and restarts. It can simply be empty quotes or I can add a reference to a pdf added as a resource, it doesn't matter. As soon as the second quotation mark is added and the designer tries to update, it crashes.

Hope you can help!!!

UPDATE:

If I try to assign the DocumentSource in the codebehind, I get the error:

Locating source for 'c:\TB\105\WPF_Scrum\Release_WPF\Sources\Development\Documents\Fixed\FixedDocumentViewers\UI\RadPdfViewer.cs'. Checksum: MD5 {9 32 c2 2f 18 c8 80 10 92 4e 2 a0 df da f3 e2}

Grid resizes slowly on window resize

Hi,

I noticed an issue with GridView.

I bind 88 rows to a grid and when I maximise the window you get a black canvas and the grid overlayed by the same grid for a second or so before the grid resizes to the maximised window width.

I have attached a screenshot which shows this behaviour (the white areas were sensitive data cut, it's not a graphical issue).

The machine is a pretty new quad core 3Ghz machine with 8GB RAM and 512MB DDR2 ram graphic card running Win7 x64.

Visual Studio 2010 SP1, Rad Controls 20112.01.320.0. I tried with an older sample of RadGrid 2011.1.0419.40 and it had the same issue.

Is there a way to make the grid resize a little less clunky? am I missing something in the XAML?

Any feedback would be appreciated,

Thanks.

private void Window_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)

{

// Instantiate the DataServiceContext.

_context = new Vessel.Service.VesselService(_svcUri);

}

private void button_getvesselTypes_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)

{

try

{

StartStats();

var VTQuery = from v in _context.Vestype

select v;

DataServiceCollection<VestypeEntity> VesselTypes = new

DataServiceCollection<VestypeEntity>(VTQuery);

this._radgrid_output.DataContext = VesselTypes;

ShowStats();

}

catch (Exception ex)

{

MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString());

Setting the SelectionRectangleStyle

I have tried to set the SelectionRectangleStyle of the Diagram control without any luck. Below is the code I am using. I can see it at design time, when I run the app and load a saved diagram it seems to ignore the style. I am modifying one of the Telerik examples.

<UserControl.Resources>

<Style x:Key="Style1" TargetType="{x:Type Rectangle}">

<Setter Property="StrokeThickness" Value="12" />

<Setter Property="StrokeDashArray" Value="3 3"/>

<Setter Property="Stroke" Value="Red"/>

<Setter Property="Fill" Value="Transparent"/>

</Style>

</UserControl.Resources>

<telerik:RadDiagram x:Name="diagram" SelectionRectangleStyle="{DynamicResource Style1}" />

Custom Filter for AutoGenerated Columns

In our TreeListView, we define only TreeListView part at design time. Columns are Auto Generated. We don't add columns from the code behind also. I need to have custom filter for few columns.

From your demo example, I found that you need to define the filtering Column like this in XAML.

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn.FilteringControl>
<local:FromDateToDateFilterControl FromDate="1/1/1863" ToDate="1/1/1933"/>
</telerik:GridViewDataColumn.FilteringControl>

I want to know how can I define this when my columns are Autogenerated?

What if I want to have different Custom Filters for different columns?

Could you please let me know to achieve this?

Is it possible to change the default behavior of Filter option

We have a requirement where we need the Filter Option Dialog/ filter functionality to behave differently from the default behavior.

We don't want to really FILTER the data, but to select/unselect the nodes that match the criteria.

Would it be possible to do this?

Drag over visual effect

I am doing drag & drop between two RadTreeListVIew, but I guess this question should not be limited only for this control. From what I have seen, most (if not all) list controls show a mouse over effect (border element) when we move mouse over a row. During the Drag&Drop operation, normal user experience would be to visually show user where an item will be dropped. It seems that for some reason, in case of drag&dop, mouse over border around the row is not applied. Why is this the case, was this necessary by design, and how can we show user the same visual experience during drag&drop, just like with mouse over.

Regards,
Goran

How to print a RadPane?

I'm trying to print a RadPane using the following code:

public static void PrintHeaderedContentControl(HeaderedContentControl VisualToPrint)

{

PrintDialog myPrintDialog = new PrintDialog();

if (myPrintDialog.ShowDialog() == true)

{

myPrintDialog.PrintVisual(VisualToPrint, VisualToPrint.Header.ToString());

}

} // PrintHeaderedContentControl

If I try this with PrintHeaderedContentControl(myRadPane) I just get an empty page with only the header text.
Any Ideas what I can do get this to work?
the following the following

It turned out the control was printed but outside the printer paper. So we need to resize and transform the control to get it on paper with code like this:

Transform transOld = ControlToPrint.RenderTransform;

TransformGroup myTransforms = new TransformGroup();

myTransforms.Children.Add(new ScaleTransform(dScale, dScale));

myTransforms.Children.Add(new TranslateTransform((myPrintDialog.PrintableAreaWidth - 20) / 20, (myPrintDialog.PrintableAreaHeight - 20) / 20));

ControlToPrint.LayoutTransform = myTransforms;

Size pageSize = new Size(myPrintDialog.PrintableAreaWidth - 20, myPrintDialog.PrintableAreaHeight - 20);

ControlToPrint.Measure(pageSize);

ControlToPrint.Arrange(new Rect(10, 10, pageSize.Width - 10, pageSize.Height - 10));

myPrintDialog.PrintVisual(ControlToPrint, Title);

ControlToPrint.LayoutTransform = transOld;

ListBoxItem still visible after DropComplete

Hi,

When I drag/drop an item from one listbox to a second, I want to put up a confirmation that the item has been saved to the second.

However, when I put up a dialog on DropComplete (done in the code-behind) to indicate that the item has been saved, I can still see the dropped item hovering over the second listbox.

Do I need to explicitly change the item's Visibility to Hidden (based on a custom event trigger... I'm using MVVM Light) so that it 'disappears' on DropComplete, or is there something I'm missing?

Thanks
