="ctlStockGridView_RowEditEnded" ValidatesOnDataErrors="None" ShowGroupPanel="False"
IsFilteringAllowed="False" RowValidating="ctlStockGridView_RowValidating"
PreparingCellForEdit="ctlStockGridView_PreparingCellForEdit">

<telerik:RadGridView.Columns

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding Amount}" TextAlignment="Right"

UniqueName="Amount" Header="Posting Amount" Width="auto" HeaderTextAlignment="Center" />

Using ItemsSource and DataTemplate

I have a drop down button that contains a context menu as the drop down content. I'm binding my ItemsSource of the ContextMenu to a collection of Items on my view model. Because it's inside a DropDownButton, I'm handling the ItemClick event to close the drop down. But I'd like to also use a command on my view model and pass the bound object as the parameter.
Right now, I'm using a DataTemplate, but then I get a menuItem inside a menuItem.
Here is my button and context menu code.

<telerik:RadDropDownButton Content="Assign" DockPanel.Dock="Right" Margin="3" Name="RolesMenu">

<telerik:RadDropDownButton.DropDownContent>

<telerik:RadContextMenu ItemsSource="{Binding RolesList}" ItemClick="RolesMenu_ItemClick">

<telerik:RadContextMenu.ItemTemplate>

<DataTemplate>

<telerik:RadMenuItem Header="{Binding RoleName}" Command="{Binding AssignRole}" CommandParameter="{Binding DataContext, RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=Self}}" />

</DataTemplate>

</telerik:RadContextMenu.ItemTemplate>

</telerik:RadContextMenu>

</telerik:RadDropDownButton.DropDownContent>

</telerik:RadDropDownButton>

How can I do the same thing as above without getting a menuItem inside a MenuItem?

Please try the next code and fill the difference when the Chart used as DataTemplate and as control.

WPF 4.0 (4.0.30319)

Codebehind:

public partial class XAxisTest : Window

{

public XAxisTest()

{

InitializeComponent();

Context = new Context();

DataContext = this;

}

public Context Context { get; set; }

}

public class Context

{

public Context()

{

Charts = new ObservableCollection<ChartDataHolder> { new ChartDataHolder(1), new ChartDataHolder(100) };

}

public ChartDataHolder FirstData

{

get

{

return Charts[0];

}

public ObservableCollection<ChartDataHolder> Charts { get; private set; }

}

public class ChartDataHolder

{

public ChartDataHolder(double delta)

{

ChartData = new ObservableCollection<ChartDataItem>();

for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++)

{

ChartData.Add(new ChartDataItem() { ValueX = DateTime.Now.Second + i, ValueY = DateTime.Now.Second * delta + i });

}

public ObservableCollection<ChartDataItem> ChartData { get; private set; }

}

public class ChartDataItem

{

public int ValueX { get; set; }

public double ValueY { get; set; }

}

Printing Gridview contents

Hi All,

I am using Telerik WPF Radgridview 2010.2.924.35 version for Printing the contents of gridview. When i select Microsoft XPS Document, a xps file is created and it contains the proper data that is present in the gridview. When i print the contents after selecting the Printer, i am gettting the correct headers and number of rows and not the cell content. all rows have blank values. What is the problem? i followed the same steps followed in Printing demo in your samples. for the demo sample, i m getting all row values when a printer is selected.

But the only difference is in demo they have used gridviewdatacolumn to bind data. I used celltemplate and celledittemplate to bind row data. Why is the content missing. I also installed 2011 trial version and i ended up with the same issue. Any ideas or help is appreciated. Preferably code samples are welcome.

Thanks in advance,
Saranya.

AutoGeneratingColumn CellTemplateSelector

I am needing to apply celltemplateselectors at runtime to dynamic grid columns from observablecollection<T>.
Do you have any documentation or examples that show applying celltemplateselectors to grid columns in code behind purely?
I have DataTemplates in a Resource Dictionary and I would like to use the business object value in the cell to decide the datatemplate to select.

Example:

private void grid_AutoGeneratingColumn(object sender, GridViewAutoGeneratingColumnEventArgs e)

{

if (e.Column.UniqueName.Equals("SpecificColumn", StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase))

{

e.Column.CellTemplateSelector =

// ... point to C# class that returns datatemplate from resource dictionary file

}

Animating elements in information layer

As a newbie to WPF I've been struggled with triggers and animations for a while.

This is my element in the information layer:

<telerik:InformationLayer.ItemTemplate>

<DataTemplate>

<Grid x:Name="TopLevelGrid" Width="Auto" Height="Auto"

telerik:MapLayer.Location="{Binding Location}" telerik:MapLayer.BaseZoomLevel="9">

<ToolTipService.ToolTip><ToolTip><ToolTip.Content>

...

</ToolTip.Content></ToolTip></ToolTipService.ToolTip>

<Ellipse Name="myEllipse" Width="20" Height="20"

Stroke="{Binding Stroke}" StrokeThickness="3"StrokeDashArray="2"

Fill="{Binding Fill}" Style="{StaticResource myStyle}" >

<telerik:MapLayer.HotSpot><telerik:HotSpot X="0.5" Y="0.5" /></telerik:MapLayer.HotSpot>

</Ellipse>

</Grid>

</DataTemplate>

</telerik:InformationLayer.ItemTemplate

The problem is that I want a property (or event) in my custom class for the element to trigger the animation. So far I've tried to do it both in XAML and in code without success.

I would be grateful if you could give me a hint or two of how to solve the issue.

Regards

Robert

AppointmentItem DataContext

Hey Telerik,

I'd like to have a reference to the resource column the AppointmentItem is shown in.
This is very useful to change the styling of the appointment based on the column it is shown in.
Since now there is only a reference to the Appointment ViewModel this is not possible.

In my current solution I add a "Resource" dependency property to the Appointment Data Context Proxy, and use reflection on the
groupheader's (GroupKey is the resource) AppointmentItems to set the extra property. However this is done in the a derivative class of the AppointmentsPanel and during it's arrangeoverride, needles to say it degrades performance.

Any suggestions?

Greetz,
Nico
