I have a grid that I'm using as a faux popup (I don't care for the RadWindow API) and it pops open when clicking various buttons in the RadDropDownButton. The problem is that the RadDropDownButton stays on top of the popup unless you click off somewhere else. Is there a close command I can manually send to the RadDropDownButton? I'd like to attach the event to each button within the RadDropDownButton.

Thanks!

Could not create an instance of type 'RadDocking'

I am developing a demo application with RadDocking. I wrote a simple application using the code samples that came with Telerik controls for WPF. When this XAML is loaded in Designer I get the error message: 'Could not create an instance of type 'RadDocking''. However when I run this application it runs fine. Can anyone help me to figure out what is the problem?

This is the XAML code.

    
            <Window x:Class="TestApplication.Window1" 
        
                xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" 
        
                xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

                Title="Window1" Height="300" Width="300" 
        
                xmlns:radDock="http://schemas.telerik.com/2008/xaml/presentation"> 
        
                <Grid>

                            <radDock:RadSplitContainer> 
        
                                <radDock:RadPaneGroup> 
        
                                    <radDock:RadDocumentPane Title="Description"> 
        
                                        <radDock:RadDocumentPane.Content> 
        
                                            <TextBlock TextWrapping="Wrap" 
        
                                                    Text="On the Documents tab above press Ctrl + Mouse Left button to display the Popup Menu. You can use the same combination on every tab." /> 
        
                                        </radDock:RadDocumentPane.Content>

                                    <radDock:RadPane Header="NotDragable" CanFloat="False"> 
        
                                        <radDock:RadPane.Content> 
        
                                            <TextBlock TextWrapping="Wrap" 
        
                                                    Text="This pane cannot be dragged, because it has its property CanFloat set 'False'." /> 
        
                                        </radDock:RadPane.Content> 
        
                                    </radDock:RadPane> 
        
                                </radDock:RadPaneGroup>

Accessing DropPosition in OnDropQuery (Drag'n'drop)?

Hi Telerik,

I can't seem to find the DropPosition when determining wheter a drop is allowed? Am I overlooking something? I can see the relative position and I guess I could calculate the relative position, but since the curson changes depending on drop position, I'm thinking the information is there somewhere...

Thnaks for any help,

Anders, Denmark

Anyone using this as an html editor?

I've tried the demo and it opens and saves in html format perfectly.

This seems like a possibility in a case where you want to store a document as html format but allow rich editing and not have to rely on a web browser control for doing your editing. For example a wpf app where you want users to be able to make and edit Wikipages inside the app but store them in html format for a web interface to the same app.

Can anyone confirm if they use it this way?

DragAndDrop and RadComboBox

I am trying to use the new DragAndDrop manager with the RadComboBox, I want to be able to drop an element from a treeview onto the ComboBox and apply a custom Drop Event that will select the dragged entity from the list. I have AllowDrop="True" on the ComboBox and I know the Treeview is set up correctly because I use it to drag to a ListBox. When the line DragDropManager.AddDropHandler(RadComboBoxBelongsTo, OnDrop); is run I get the error: Cannot find a Resource with the Name/Key DraggableItem. How do I drag to a RadComboBox??

Sorry, should have posted this on the Silverlight Forum, not sure if its the same for WPF.

Entity inheritance vs ObjectQuery vs QueryName

I have two entities, for instance entityA and entityB inherited from entityB. In ObjectContext there is
ObjectSet<entityA> entityAs;
But I need an ObjectResult<entityB>, and has created this (custom) property on ObjectContext:
ObjectResult<entityB> entityBs
{ ... }
So when I user entityBs as QueryName in RadEntityFrameWorkDataSource (in XAML), then nearly all works fine except AddNew, because the QueryName is used for getting ObjectResult<> property value of ObjectContext, and for entitySetName.
Can I somehow enforce the real base entit class's set name for use as entitySetName, and (any) ObjectQuery as object query used to create QueryabelEntityCollection?

It is not a solution, when I use for QueryName the base ObjectSet's name (and approperiate FilterDescription), because the AddNew produce a base class instance not a derived class's one.

(ok, I can create manually QueryabelEntityCollection<entityB>, but it is not real beuty solution :))

Keyboard focus

I would like to disable Keyboard focus for the RichTextBox.
My RichTextBox is acting more like a viewer, with possibility to select text but not edit.
When I use snoop to check te keyboard focus on my application, I see Keyboard.FocusedElement = Caret
I'm experiencing difficulties disabling this focus.

When I execute UIElement.MoveFocus(new TraversalRequest(FocusNavigationDirection.Up)) I can't either move the focus

FluidControl + TileStateChanged

Hello,

I've got a Problem with the New Q1 2012 WPF RadTileView.
If i user the TileStateChanged Event (Online Doc), and set the FluidControl State Manualy to Large,Small, Normal, the layout looks Broken (File q12012.png , Version: 2012.1.215.40).
If i run exactly the same Code with the old Assemblys (2010.3.1110.40), the Layout looks correct.

The Animation of the TileItem are also Smoother in the Older Release as in the new one.

Is there any Workaround, for solving this Problem, or is it simply a Bug?

Greetings

Alfred
