Adding aggregate function dynamically crass my application.

Hi,
I'm using Telerik V2011.3.1220.35 and. I create some aggregate functions dynamically to my grid. The sum/average functions cause my application to crash. To see a concrete situation, just comment or uncomment the indicated lines to see the application working or crashing :)

PS: Also, look at the First/Last aggregate functions UI result !!!

Application Menu Flickering

Hello
I'm using RadRibbonView in Windows XP, when the Application menu's height exceeds the height of the ribbon, and is drawn above another control, it flickers. I've had the same problem with RadWindow and it was solved with the AllowTransparency Property.
Is there a similar property for the ribbon view?

Expanding node when items not generated

Hi all,

I am using a treeview bound to a hierarchy of ObservableCollections, and the bindings appear fine (including to a dependency property IsExpanded on the objects, and a pdependency property SelectedNode on the hierarchy as a whole) apart from one issue. My user can select a node and a control that fires this method:

public void NewConsolidation(object args)
{
SelectedNode.IsExpanded = true;
var newNode = _hierarchy.AddNode(SelectedNode, "Another Child"); <-- inserts a node
SelectedNode = newNode;
SelectedNode.ParentNode.IsExpanded = true;
SelectedNode.ParentNode.NodeName += "(has children)";
}

With more than one node, collapsed, I see

+ Root Node <-- selected

go to

- Root Node (has children)
First Child
Another Child <-- selected

but with only the root:

Root Node <-- selected

goes to

+ Root Node (has children)

- that is, setting IsExpanded makes no difference if the node in question has never had children and been opened. I can see the binding is working, though, because the name change takes effect. I understand this is related to the treeview items not yet being generated - so how can I force them to be generated for this parent?

[Solved] Select item in declaratively bound combobox

Hi

I am using a Telerik radcombobox in a ItemsControl like below. The itemscontrol is populated with some data, and I want the combobox to be default selected to one of the fields in the data. Why doesn't this work?

<Window.Resources>

<CollectionViewSource x:Key="orderViewSource" />

</Window.Resources>

<Grid>

<ItemsControl x:Name="rptOrders" ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource orderViewSource}}">

<ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>

<DataTemplate>

<Grid>

<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

<ColumnDefinition Width="160px" />

<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />

</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

<Label Content="{Binding Path=Name}" Grid.Column="0" VerticalAlignment="Center"></Label>

<telerik:RadComboBox x:Name="rcbOrder" Grid.Column="1" SelectedItem="{Binding Path=Order}">

<telerik:RadComboBoxItem Content="Extra Hot" />

<telerik:RadComboBoxItem Content="Hot" />

<telerik:RadComboBoxItem Content="Mild" />

</telerik:RadComboBox>

</Grid>

</DataTemplate>

</ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>

</ItemsControl>

</Grid>

Data:

((CollectionViewSource)(FindResource("orderViewSource"))).Source = Data.StaffOrders;

public class Data

{

public static ObservableCollection<StaffMember> StaffOrders { get { return //loaddata; } }

public class StaffMember

{

public Int32 StaffID { get; set; }

public String Name { get; set; }

public String Email { get; set; }

public String Order { get; set; }

}

[Solved] ListBox given Telerik style ignores HorizontalContentAlignment

Hello,

I think I've found a bug with applying a Telerik style to a ListBox - with the style applied, ListBox items appear as though the ListBox had HorizontalContentAlignment="Left", even when I specify HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch" .

I've made a little test project to demonstrate, and attached a screen shot of what the app looks like. The only bit omitted is the code-behind - in the window's constructor I add a single empty string to each listbox's items.

You can see that the border on the un-styled listbox extends all the way across the list box, but the border for the telerik styled version is left aligned. Does anyone know why this might be occuring/if there is a workaround I could use?

<Window x:Class="RadControlsWpfApp1.MainWindow"

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

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

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

Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525">

<Window.Resources>

<Style TargetType="ListBox" x:Key="TelerikListBoxStyle" BasedOn="{StaticResource {telerik:ThemeResourceKey ThemeType=telerik:Office_BlueTheme, ElementType=ListBox}}"/>

</Window.Resources>

<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical">

<ListBox Style="{StaticResource TelerikListBoxStyle}" x:Name="telerikStyledListBox" HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch">

<ListBox.ItemTemplate>

<DataTemplate>

<Label Content="telerik style" BorderThickness="1" BorderBrush="Black"/>

</DataTemplate>

</ListBox.ItemTemplate>

</ListBox>

<ListBox x:Name="listBox" HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch">

<ListBox.ItemTemplate>

<DataTemplate>

<Label Content="standard style" BorderThickness="1" BorderBrush="Black"/>

</DataTemplate>

</ListBox.ItemTemplate>

</ListBox>

</StackPanel>

</Window>

Regards,
James.

Bug in Zoom Behaviour

If you zoom in to a tiny scale using the pan & zoom behaviour, the control will throw an exception and crash completely. This is clearly not desired.

Will this be fixed shortly?

Need to change foreground color of text and create a custom column type

I have a few questions I need answered:

1. How do I turn off the grouping feature?

2. When the data in a RadGridView is being exported in text format, is there a way that I can change the format of the data output? Meaning, I don't want the text surrounded by double quotes and I want each column to occupy a certain number of columns.

Thanks

Tony

P.S. I deleted the other questions that were originally in this post as I don't need them answered any more. These two, though, I still need answers to.

Thanks
