Have a project that uses Telerik UI for WPF libraries.

Researching an up coming customer request: they want to submit a request from the current project to SQL and write the output directly to Excel without UI component.

Question using the current Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView.SpreadsheetStreamingExport.for.Wpf or Telerik.Windows.Documents.SpreadsheetStreaming. Can I do SQL query take the result/data store object and write the output directly to Excel or must I use a UI like RadGridView then export to Excel?

I will need to set the Excel worksheet format before import data.

Foreground color of TreeViewItem with custom header

Hello,

we're currently updating our application to use Telerik components in order to make use of implicit styling.
I'm making good progress so far but am stuck at this one.

We're currently using the Office2019 theme in the Light color variation.
The problem I'm facing is with the selection of a TreeViewItem and the involved change of the Foreground color that goes along with it.

For TreeViewItems that use a string as a header this works just fine. The item i selected, the Background changes to blue and the Foreground to white. Perfetly readable.

However if I use a grid (containing a TextBlock) as the Header the foreground of the TextBlock remains black and does not change to white.

I tried binding the Foreground color of the TextBlock to the Foreground color of the parent TreeViewItem like so:

Binding binding = new Binding("Foreground");

binding.RelativeSource = new RelativeSource(RelativeSourceMode.FindAncestor, typeof(RadTreeViewItem), 1);

tb.SetBinding(TextBlock.ForegroundProperty, binding);

However this does not work. Possible because the Foreground property of the TreeViewItem is never changed, but only the Foreground property of the header:

<Trigger Property="IsSelected" Value="True">

<Setter TargetName="Header" Property="Foreground" Value="{telerik1:Office2019Resource ResourceKey=CheckedForegroundBrush}"/>

<Setter TargetName="BorderVisual" Property="Background" Value="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource TemplatedParent}, Path=(helpers:ThemeHelper.CheckedBrush)}"/>

</Trigger>

I tried to add another setter to this trigger and set the Foreground property of the TreeViewItem. This kind of works, but unfortunately propagates through all child items of a TreeViewItem.

Any suggestions on how my desired behaviour could be implemented?

Hue Shift, Saturation, etc. values get reset when switch to another UI element?

If I select Hue Shift and move the slider and have a value of 115.75, then I click on the "Saturation" item and make adjustments via slide to 20.12, now I click on Hue Shift and it's value has reset back to 0.0 even though the "Hue shift" has been applied to the image?

My expectation was the Hue Shift value would be retained NOT reset ... this happens to all the command controls. Is there a way to prevent the reset of these values when I navigate from command (HueShift) to command (Saturation)?

I noticed your ImageEditor sample application has the same issue ... see video for clarity:

Using RadGlyph as icon in bound ContextMenu

I am following the documentation from here:

But I would like to use a RadGlyph instead of an image url. Is there a way to use a RadGlyph instead of an image for the IconUrl property in the following class and template? I have not been able to get it to work.

public class MenuItem

{

public MenuItem()

{

this.SubItems = new ObservableCollection<MenuItem>();

}

public string Text { get; set; }

public Uri IconUrl { get; set; }

public bool IsSeparator { get; set; }

public ICommand Command { get; set; }

public ObservableCollection<MenuItem> SubItems { get; set; }

}

<Style x:Key="MenuItemStyle" TargetType="telerik:RadMenuItem">

<Setter Property="Icon" Value="{Binding IconUrl}"/>

<Setter Property="IconTemplate">

<Setter.Value>

<DataTemplate>

<Image Source="{Binding}" Stretch="None"/>

</DataTemplate>

</Setter.Value>

</Setter>

<Setter Property="IsSeparator" Value="{Binding IsSeparator}"/>

<Setter Property="Header" Value="{Binding Text}"/>

<Setter Property="ItemsSource" Value="{Binding SubItems}"/>

<Setter Property="Command" Value="{Binding Command}"/>

</Style>

How do I enable .NET 5 Support?

I use the UI for WPF (version 2020.3.1020) with a .NET Core 3.1 application on Windows 10. I get my Telerik assemblies directly from the Telerik NuGet servers. This has been working well for about a year.

I tried to upgrade my projects to .NET 5 and it does not compile. Whereever I use Telerik types, I get build errors like this:

(345,17,345,53): error CA1416: 'SelectionRange<double>' is supported on 'Windows' 7.0 and later

(1031,23,1031,31): error CA1416: 'CartesianPlotBandAnnotation.Axis.get' is supported on 'Windows' 7.0 and later

I've seen on Telerik's own page that they at least support the .NET 5 Preview

Telerik UI for WPF also provides assemblies for .NET 5.0 Preview (since R2 2020) and .NET 5.0 Release Candidate 1 (RC1) (since R3 2020).

So I'm wondering how I can make my project work with the official .NET 5? Is this supported yet?

CountFunction with Zero Rows

Hi, How do I get the count function to show '0' when there are no rows on the Grid?

The aggregate functions all seem to disappear when there are no rows.

Thanks,

Material Theme prevents Image from display in a RadButton?

When I select the Material Theme any image with a RadButton doesn't display.

<telerik:RadButton x:Name="bnApplyTreeScapeSet" Width="28" Height="28" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Center" telerik:RadToolTipService.ToolTipContentTemplate="{x:Null}" telerik:RadToolTipService.InitialShowDelay="100" telerik:RadToolTipService.BetweenShowDelay="0">

<Image Source="../Resources/save_32.png" Stretch="Uniform" />

<telerik:RadToolTipService.ToolTipContent>

<telerik:RadToolTipContentView>

<TextBlock Text="Apply TreeScape set to Flight Simulator" />

</telerik:RadToolTipContentView>

</telerik:RadToolTipService.ToolTipContent>

</telerik:RadButton>

My save_32.png doesn't display, non of my Images in any RadButton display. I've test ALL the other Themes and they work as expected, images display. This issue is ONLY with Material theme ... which is a shame be cause it's a nice theme.

Thoughts?

Cheers, Rob.

Strange input behavior when using Chinese keyboard layout (RadMaskedNumericInput)

I'm currently using the RadMaskedNumericInput as follows:

<telerik:RadMaskedNumericInput Value="{Binding Value}" Mask="#6.3" SelectionOnFocus="SelectAll" UpdateValueEvent="LostFocus" TextMode="PlainText" IsClearButtonVisible="False" AutoFillZeros="True" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Culture="zh-CN" Placeholder=" " AutoFillNumberGroupSeparators="False" />

As long I'm using german or english keyboard settings, this works as exptected. So if I would type in e.g. "1.23" (either with dot or comma as the decimal seperator), I get the exact same value.

But now one of our chinese customers has informed us, that he isn't able to input the values as exptected. So for testing purposes, I switched the keyboard layout virtually to Chinese (simplified, China) - Microsoft PinYin. This is then things start to get strange: With that, if I click in the control as before and then typing "1.23", I get the odd number "100.010,200" (again same result either for dot or comma).

Does anyone know why this happens and how to avoid this behavior?

Thanks in advance.
