Hi Telerik,
I'm working on a project that needs to load a massive amount of data into the grid.
The data loading is divided into two chunks: the first chunk will bring only several rows for the user to be able to start working with.
The second chunk will load the rest of the data in a separate thread.

While loading the first chunk I'm setting the IsBusy property to true.
Once the first chunk is loaded isBusy is false (the user should be able to start working), and I want to "add" a row to the end of the grid's rows collection that will represent a loading indicator (like in the iPhone) - this is exactly like in the iPhone (see attachment).

I tried to make modifications in the grid's GridViewScrollViewer template by changing the content of the ScrollContentPresenter to contain a ContentPresenter with the loading indicator below it (I made it a button for simplicity).

This works well when applied to a regular ScrollViewer's template, but on GridViewScrollViewer template it throws an exception:
In a FrameworkTemplate, ContentPresenter and GridViewRowPresenter cannot be in each other inclusively or exclusively.

Please help!!
Regards,

David.

Hello. I'm concerned about the performance of the RadTreeView. I created a simplistic project where I create 1001 items, one root item with 1000 sub items and the RadTreeView's size is 24.84 MB, so I thought something must be wrong because I'm just putting strings in the RadTreeViewItems, so I checked with a memory profiler, and I found out that a lot of very heavy objects are created. The ones that jump out the most are these three:

55,308x EffectiveValueEntry[] (4.69MB)
9,011x Rectangle (2.52MB)
8,019x Grid (2.17MB)

Now, this is in a simplistic problem. In our real project these numbers are much bigger (also with around 1000 items). The number of rectangles goes up to 17,000 when we display the RadTreeView and it has become a major issue for us because it uses a lot of memory. Just by displaying our tree, which is very complex, the memory usage goes up 76mb and we have two of them so that makes 152mb for both trees. We're now working in just using one tree, but 76mb is still a lot of memory of the one tree.

Here's a video I captured while making sure the items are coming from the RadTreeView:

Let me know if there's anything we can do, and also minimizing GUI loses.

Thanks. By the way we're using the 2009.3.1208.35 RadTreeViewItem version.

Let me know. Thank you.

Can you advise what change is required so that the scroll bar appearance is the same as the default WPF scroll bar.

I created a simple RadChart with the following code that binds to a collection of data.  The x-axis binds to Date property of DateTIme and the y-axis binds to Quantity property of type Int.  When I try and set a property in ChartARea.AXisX, the UI is not updated.  For example, I try and set LabelRotationAngle = 45.  Nothing happens.  What I see in the x-axis since it is bound to DateTIme values, is LongDateTime format values which is making the x-axis all messy.  I set DefaultLabelFormat="dd-MMM" but the UI doesn't get updated again. 

Can anyone figure out why my chart is not getting updated in the UI.  I've looked at all the Chart Sample Demo's and my XAML looks pretty much the same.  Not sure what I'm doing wrong where the UI does not updated.

Thanks

Since this this an observablecollection, I just need to add a new TreeFolderHierarchyItem object to my observable collection
Adding new Item works fine and RadTreeView control refreshs correctly with the new item. But I want, enter in edit mode for this new item in order to change its header .
using MyRadViewTree.ItemContainerGenerator.ContainerFromIndex(0) returns always null even when all the node are expanded . So I am not able to iterate into the hierarchy ...
I thought to set IsEditMode=True but when I calls MyRadTreeVieew.Items I get my Observable collection of TreeFolderHierarchyItem  as expected but useless for setting the EditMode ..
What am I doing wrong ?
Thanks for your help

Hi

Can we set the width of the tabcontrol according to the containter Control?

For eg:
The tab control size should increase according to the usercontrol size.

Hi,

thank you.

Hello,

I would like to have the Slider thumb control move to the correct position when I set the value programmatically.  How would I go about doing this?

Thanks

Hi,
We are having trouble getting a RadDock in WPF to resize to the height/width of it's container.  We'd like it to be 100% of the grid row's height and width so it adjusts to the size of the window as it's the main area users will work in.

We want a RadRibbon to appear at the top of the screen in a manner where the user cannot remove it then have the docking area for windows appear beneath that taking up the remaining space in height.

I have a grid where the rows have a DatePicker and a DropDown. I want to disable the DropDown if the DatePicker is empty. I have this in my grid:

 

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataFormatString="d" Header="Termination" DataMemberBinding="{Binding TerminationDate}" >

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellEditTemplate>

<DataTemplate>                                                        

<telerik:RadDatePicker x:Name="TerminationDate" SelectedDate="{Binding Path=TerminationDate, Mode=TwoWay}"/>

</DataTemplate>

</telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellEditTemplate>

</telerik:GridViewDataColumn>

  

<telerik:GridViewComboBoxColumn                                                

x:Name="TerminationReasonType"

Header="Beneficiary Terminated"

ItemsSource="{Binding Path=ReferenceData.AllBeneficiaryTerminationReasonType}"

DisplayMemberPath="Description"

SelectedValueMemberPath="_BeneficiaryTerminationReasonTypeID.Id"

DataMemberBinding="{Binding TerminationReasonID,UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}">


<!--
<telerik:GridViewComboBoxColumn.Style>

<Style TargetType="telerik:GridViewComboBoxColumn">

<Style.Triggers>

<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding ElementName=TerminationDate}" Value="{x:Null}">

<Setter Property="FrameworkElement.IsEnabled" Value="false"></Setter>

</DataTrigger>

</Style.Triggers>

</Style>

</telerik:GridViewComboBoxColumn.Style>
-->                                            


</telerik:GridViewComboBoxColumn>

 

 

 

I have tried the commented code but did not work. I can not reach the TerminationDate element.
Ideas?
Thx
