Problems with radTransitionControl in threaded window

Hi
In my application each thread is implemented in its own thread like:

public void OpenPartViewer(AbstractPart part)

{

Thread newWindowThread = new Thread(new ThreadStart(ThreadStartingPoint));

newWindowThread.SetApartmentState(ApartmentState.STA);

newWindowThread.IsBackground = true;

newWindowThread.Start();

part_ = part;

}

private void ThreadStartingPoint()

{

// Create a new window

PartViewerMainWindow win = new PartViewerMainWindow(part_);

win.Closed += (sender1, e1) => win.Dispatcher.InvokeShutdown();

win.Show();

// Start the new window's Dispatcher

System.Windows.Threading.Dispatcher.Run();

}

In one of the dialogs I previously used a ContentControl which I now want to replace with a RadTransitionControl like the above.

<telerik:RadTransitionControl x:Name="PartViewerContent" Grid.Column="1" VerticalContentAlignment="Stretch" HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch"

Content="{Binding ElementName=TreeView, Path=SelectedItem}"

ContentTemplateSelector="{StaticResource PartViewerContentSelector}">

</telerik:RadTransitionControl>

But after changing to RadTransitionControl I get an error when I change selection in the treeview:

The calling thread cannot access this object because a different thread owns it

I asume it is raised because the transitions is rendered in the main thead but I don't know. And more important. Can I do some magic to make it work.

Add record in Gridview while paging

Hi

Is it possible to add a new row into the gridview when you use paging?
without the paging it works, but our client would like to use paging.

I am using a datatable to fill up the datagrid (I receive this from a dll from a client).

VB

Dim pagedSource = New QueryableCollectionView(GetDataTable().AsEnumerable.ToList)
Me.radDataPager.Source = pagedSource
Me.radGridView.ItemsSource = pagedSource

XAML

<telerik:RadButton
    Width="150"
    Content="Add new row"
    Margin="0,0,5,0"
    Command="telerikGrid:RadGridViewCommands.BeginInsert"
    CommandTarget="{Binding ElementName=RadGridView}" />

</StackPanel>

<telerik:RadDataPager
    x:Name="radDataPager"
    PageSize="10"
    DisplayMode="All"
    IsTotalItemCountFixed="false"
    VerticalContentAlignment="Bottom"
</telerik:RadDataPager>

<telerik:RadGridView
    x:Name="radGridView"
    ItemsSource="{Binding PagedSource, ElementName=radDataPager}"
    VerticalAlignment="Top"
    CanUserDeleteRows="False"
    CanUserInsertRows="True"
    CanUserReorderColumns="False"
    ShowGroupPanel="False"
    AutoGenerateColumns="False"
    ShowInsertRow="True">
</telerik:RadGridView>

Problem Loading

sorry, accidentally hit enter!
title should read
"problem loading saved grid settings"

using the provided code from your demo, the 'loadstate' method in the radgridviewsettings file
causes the following exception
{"The binary operator Equal is not defined for the types 'System.Object' and 'System.Boolean'."}

This happens when I load a saved a filter setting, with a column that has boolean types filtered to false or true (nothing works fine).
it seems to arise from:

For Each fds As FilterDescriptorSetting In setting.SelectedDistinctValues

Dim fd As New Telerik.Windows.Data.FilterDescriptor()

fd.Member = fds.Member

fd.[Operator] = fds.[Operator]

fd.Value = fds.Value

cfd.DistinctFilter.FilterDescriptors.Add(fd)

Next

Me.grid.FilterDescriptors.Add(cfd)

Spent several hours trying to figure this out, any help that can point me in the right direction would be much appreciated!

regards,
Andrew

ItemSource Binding happens twice

Hi,

I am using the RadGridView in an MVVM project. The ViewModel has a property ObservableCollection<T> to which the ItemSource property is bound. When a I place a break point in the ViewModel property get, then it is accessed twice. Am I doing something wrong? The XAML is below. Also, what is the best practice when loading data using a pager and ensuring only page size is loaded from the database and not all records (e.g. Take(20));

Regards
Jaco

3. repeat step 1 and 2. I got this result > http://img214.imageshack.us/i/71641655.png/

XAML :

<telerik:RadGridView x:Name="CodeRadGrid" IsReadOnly="False" AutoGenerateColumns="False" SelectionMode="Extended" telerik:StyleManager.Theme="Office_Blue"

ItemsSource="{Binding PagedSource, ElementName=ctlDataPager}" ShowInsertRow="True" AddingNewDataItem="CodeRadGrid_AddingNewDataItem"

RowEditEnded="CodeRadGrid_RowEditEnded" >

<telerik:RadGridView.Columns>

<telerik:GridViewSelectColumn />

<telerik:RadDataPager x:Name="RadDataPager" PageSize="7" DisplayMode="First, Last, Next, Previous, Text" IsTotalItemCountFixed="True" />

C#

private void CodeRadGrid_AddingNewDataItem(object sender, Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView.GridViewAddingNewEventArgs e)

{

e.NewObject = new CodeObj();

}

private void CodeRadGrid_RowEditEnded(object sender, GridViewRowEditEndedEventArgs e)

{

if (e.EditAction == GridViewEditAction.Cancel)

{

return;

}

if (e.EditOperationType == GridViewEditOperationType.Insert)

{

((List<CodeObj>)this.RadDataPager.Source).Add( (CodeObj) e.NewData);

}

My RadDataPager.Source is List<CodeObj>.

Please give me some advice.

Thank you

Is this grid possible?

Is the grid shown in the attached image possible with the Telerik ?

I'm prepared to give up on displaying column headers on each group (http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/wpf/gridview/repeating-column-headers-in-every-group.aspx)

However, If I can't repeat the column headers further down the grid, i could possibly fake grouping using 'normal' rows and style selectors. I would then need to be able to merge cells in two adjacent columns like in the Xceed or ComponentOne grids. Is this possible?

Thanks
Pete

Undock lose theme

Hi,
I'm trying to use the raddocking component and set its theme to expression_dark.

I've noticed when I undock the RadPaneGroup, if I'm not mistaken, lose its theme and the background becomes white.

In you sample codes this problem doesn't occour when I set the theme, so I guess you are doing something else that makes sure the theme won't disappear, but unfortunately the code to change the theme is not provided.

Could you tell me what I'm missing?

And another question related to this issue.
I've tried setting a custom theme to the RadPaneGroup :

<Style TargetType="{x:Type telerik:RadPaneGroup}">

<Setter Property="Style" Value="{DynamicResource RadPaneGroupStyle3}"/>

</Style>

But when I detach a pane so it would be floating I get the follow error :
"Style object is not allowed to affect the Style property of the object to which it applies."

I guess when the pane float it uses some kind of a diffrent control. If so, could you please tell me what it is?
The reason I'm doing this is because it seems that when I detach a pane It loses its style even after I dock it again.

any ideas?

Thank you

Docking
