The data that is displayed in my track ball info is quite large and covers my chart series.

Is it possible to style the template for the track ball info so that the containing block is transparent? I'd like to see my chart and the tracked data.

Thanks

Location and number of connectors on Diagram Shape

The diagram control looks very promising but I must be able to control the number and location of the connectors of the Diagram Shape. I have been unable to locate how to do this. My domain has a fixed number of entities that I will need to link together but each entity type will have between 1 and 11 connector points. I will be using DataTemplates to completely control the shapes and was hoping in the template I could identify where I want the connectors to go. Is it possible to achieve this?

hierarchy grid find/scroll issue

I'm building a hierarchial grid using the self reference setting and everything seems to work as I want. Using the dataloading event, I define the columns and grid properties. A good example would be an org chart with n levels of employees. Only the top level employees are displayed and any of them that have direct reports it will show the + to allow you to drill down (I have a filterdescriptor that filters out sub-employees so they are only visible as child records). My issue is how to implement a Find function. I have tried to bind the SelectedItem of each grid to a SelectedEmployee notify property. If I do a find on a top-level employee, it works fine, but if it's a employee in a child grid, it doesn't work (I bound the child grids as (sender as GridViewDataControl).SelectedItem = new Binding("SelectedEmployee")). If you can help with this, that would be great. I also will need to auto expand all levels above this in order to display it after the fine.

Any help would be appreciated.

ViewModel driven example

Is there any example how to drive complex docking app (think: Visual Studio) completely by ViewModels using the model-first appoach (as opposed to view-first)? Something in the lines of having a databound



ObservableCollection<

ToolViewModelBase

> ShellViewModel.Tools

where each ToolViewModelBase represents a dockable region in the shell?

RadPaneGroup shows tab with 1 pane in latest version

Hello, I just upgraded to the latest version and now when there is only 1 RadPane in a RadPaneGroup the tab strip is now visible with only one tab. This is a change in behavior from the old version (there was no tab strip visible). How do I restore the old behavior?

I am now using version 2012.1.215.40.
Edit: The issue was fixed in 2012.1.326.40

Thanks

Gridview columns shrink upon loading

Hi all,

I have been trying to know the source of this issue with no luck for a while now. I am using WPF RadGrdiView 2012 Q1 SP1 in page that bound to a collection in View Model (MVVM/Prism). When the grid loads, if the row is empty (meaning the bound object is not empty but the corresponding properties are null), then the column are shrined even through the grid itself stretches to fill the entire page. It is as if the column didn’t render correctly to take the proper width. Please see attached pic.

The way the GridView is layed out :

RadDocking -> RadPane -> RadTab -> User Control -> StackPanel -> Grid -> GridView

I have tried to set the Horiznotal Content of the Gridview, Grid and StackPanel to “Stretch”, but that didn’t fix the issue.

Any suggestion why this might be happening? Is there a way to force the GridView to redraw/re-calculate column width on loading?

Thanks

HELP!!! Tile Placement Is Wrong -- Different Sizes

Hi,

I am having issues with trying to get my tiles in restored mode to "fill in" when one tile is bigger than the others.
I have a RadTileView which needs to show 7 panels (tile in position 0 is going to be 100% height and 50% width of the tile viewer). The rest of the tiles are sized so they should fit in the remaining space available, however 3 of the tiles align themselves below the tile in position 0. This means they are not visible and the user has to scroll.

I tried following the article - http://blogs.telerik.com/zarkovidolov/posts/11-06-25/new-tileview-features.aspx
and tried downloading the sample but the link is bad.

Here is my xaml, which I am hoping that you will be able to help me:

<telerik:RadTileView Grid.Row="0" x:Name="ChartTiles"

TileStateChangeTrigger="SingleClick"

telerik:StyleManager.Theme="Office_Blue"

ColumnsCount="3"

RowsCount="3"

ColumnWidth="Auto"

RowHeight="Auto"

MinimizedColumnWidth="300"

MinimizedRowHeight="300"

PreservePositionWhenMaximized="true"

IsItemsSizeInPercentages="True"

ItemsSource="{Binding ChartingViewModel.Charts}"

telerik:TileViewPanel.IsColumnsShrinkEnabled="True"

telerik:TileViewPanel.IsRowsShrinkEnabled="True"

telerik:TileViewPanel.IsSizeBoundToPosition="True"

TileStateChanged="ChartTiles_TileStateChanged"

Loaded="ChartTiles_Loaded"

TilesPositionChanged ="ChartTiles_TilesPositionChanged"

>

<telerik:RadTileView.ItemTemplate>

<DataTemplate>

<TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}" Style="{StaticResource tileItemStyle}"/>

</DataTemplate>

</telerik:RadTileView.ItemTemplate>

<telerik:RadTileView.ItemContainerStyle>

<Style TargetType="telerik:RadTileViewItem">

<Setter Property="RestoredHeight" Value="{Binding TileRestoredHeight, Mode=TwoWay}" />

<Setter Property="RestoredWidth" Value="{Binding TileRestoredWidth, Mode=TwoWay}" />

<Setter Property="ContextMenu" Value="{StaticResource ChartContextMenu}" />

</Style>

</telerik:RadTileView.ItemContainerStyle>

<telerik:RadTileView.ContentTemplate>

<DataTemplate>

<Grid>

<Grid.RowDefinitions>

<RowDefinition Height="30" />

<RowDefinition />

</Grid.RowDefinitions>

<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

<ColumnDefinition />

</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

<Label Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Content="{Binding Path=Title}"/>

<StackPanel Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="1" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Orientation="Horizontal">

<RadioButton Content="Pie Chart" IsChecked="{Binding Path=IsPieChartActive}" Margin="0,5,0,5"/>

<RadioButton Content="Bar Chart" IsChecked="{Binding Path=IsBarChartActive}" Margin="5"/>

</StackPanel>

<ecaAnalyzerViews:PieChartControl Grid.Row="1" Grid.ColumnSpan="2"

Visibility="{Binding Path=PieChartVisibility, TargetNullValue=Collapsed, FallbackValue=Collapsed}"

/>

<ecaAnalyzerViews:BarChartControl Grid.Row="1" Grid.ColumnSpan="2"

Visibility="{Binding Path=BarChartVisibility, TargetNullValue=Collapsed, FallbackValue=Collapsed}"

/>

</Grid>

</DataTemplate>

</telerik:RadTileView.ContentTemplate>

</telerik:RadTileView>

Thanks in advance for any help!!!

appointment.RecurrenceRule = new RecurrenceRule(Pattern); ERROR

Hi,

i'm frustrated :-(
For me it's unpossible to add Patterns to an Appointment. The code above shows how i create my Pattern Objekt and how
i add this to my Appointment!

var Pattern = new RecurrencePattern();

Pattern.Frequency = Frequency_v;

Pattern.DayOrdinal = DayOrdinal_i;

Pattern.DaysOfWeekMask = DaysofWeekMask_v;

Pattern.FirstDayOfWeek = FirstDayofWeek_d;

Pattern.Frequency = Frequency_v;

Pattern.Interval = Convert.ToInt32(tasks_dr.Field<Int64>("Interval"));

Pattern.MaxOccurrences = Convert.ToInt32(tasks_dr.Field<Int64>("MaxOccurrences"));

Pattern.MonthOfYear = Convert.ToInt32(tasks_dr.Field<Int64>("MonthofYear"));

Pattern.DayOfMonth = Convert.ToInt32(tasks_dr.Field<Int64>("DayofMonth"));

System.DateTime? RecursUntil_d;

if (tasks_dr.Field<String>("RecursUntil") != "")

{

RecursUntil_d = Convert.ToDateTime(tasks_dr.Field<String>("RecursUntil"));

}

else

{

RecursUntil_d = DateTime.Now;

}

Pattern.RecursUntil = RecursUntil_d;

appointment.RecurrenceRule = new RecurrenceRule(Pattern);

The Datasourc is an DB which is filled by Datas from an new created Appointment with all values.

Table:

cid      name               type        Value
------- ----------------- ---------- ---

SeriesMapping ItemsSource Redraw/Flicker problem

Hi,

With the addition of the ItemsSource on a SeriesMapping we were finally able to extend your chart control to support binding to multiple collections in an underlying view model.

This is great, and has helped the chart control to start to become viable. However, it seems that every time a new data point is added to the collection bound to a SeriesMapping.ItemsSource, the entire series redraws.

This is with AutoRange set to false for both X and Y Axis and Min/Max values set for both. I can watch the chart, and while the scale never changes, each series blanks out and redraws with each new data point.

Is this fixable with the current release?
