When using docking from ActiPro there is a nice feature:
- when you undock a ToolWindow/Pane, you can use MouseDoubleClick to dock the window back in the original place. Nice!

Does Telerik Docking have something alike? Or is it easy to implement?

Localisation: Binding column headers to DynamicResources

Hello,

I am currently implementing a localization in our application. The headers of the columns and all captions of all controls are referenced to dynamic resources like that:

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding ArtikelNr}" Header="{DynamicResource ArtikelNr}" IsReadOnly="True"/>

I am switching the culture during runtime with this function:

public class ResourceManager

{

public static void SetResources(Collection<ResourceDictionary> collection, CultureInfo culture)

{

RemoveOld(collection);

try

{

Uri resource = new Uri("Resources/Strings_" + culture.Name + ".xaml", System.UriKind.Relative);

collection.Add(new ResourceDictionary { Source = resource });

}

catch

{

// TODO: Handle this, is it possible to be here?

}

private static void RemoveOld(Collection<ResourceDictionary> collection)

{

for (int i = 0; i < collection.Count; ++i)

{

if (collection[i].Source.ToString().Contains("Strings_"))

{

collection.RemoveAt(i);

--i;

}

public static List<CultureInfo> SupportedCultures

{

get

{

return new List<CultureInfo>()

{

new CultureInfo("de-DE"), // DEU

new CultureInfo("ru-RU"), // ENU

};

}

public void SetCulture(CultureInfo culture)

{

Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = culture;

Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = culture;

ResourceManager.SetResources(Resources.MergedDictionaries, culture);

}

The column headers of the gridview are ignoring the dynamic resources. But the resources are correctly added to the MergedDictionaries-Collection. All other controls (RadControls too) are using the dynamic resources fine.

Do have any ideas what's going wrong with the columns?

TreeView Search with HierarchicalDataTemplate

After combining the code from multiple examples in the forum, I am really close to getting my search working for my TreeView. However, as other people have found, it will only work if I expand my whole tree first. What do I need to modify in my code to make this work correctly? Obviously, if my users have to expand the whole tree first, the search option is pretty useless.

thanks!

RadSlider is throwing a Invalid Operation Exception when used in MAF (System.Addin)

I am trying to use the Telerik reporting inside a System.Addin control. My control has a separate appdomain and thread then the main form. This is done to isolate the main control from any addins that could cause issues. The RadSlider is grabbing a reference to the mainwindow which is outside of my appdomain and is on a different thread. Is there a way to remove the reference to the main window or set it to the addin control?

How do I get/edit a copy of RadPaneGroup Windows7 themed template?

I want to edit the RadPaneGroup Windows7 template.

When I use the "Edit Template... -> Edit a Copy" method in Expression Blend, I always get a copy of the "Office_BlackTheme" template, even If I use StyleManager.Theme="Windows7" for the RadPaneGroup in XAML.

How do I get the Windows7 template?

The same ScheduleView in WPF host works fine.
