Hi,

I've been looking through the DataGrid documentation (the WPF Demos, looking at the code behind) and there is a CellTemplateSelector property used:

    
            <telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="UnitPrice" DataMemberBinding="{Binding UnitPrice}" 
        
                                        CellTemplateSelector="{StaticResource selector}" DataFormatString="{}{0:c}" />

(Demo: Controls -> Data -> GridView -> DataTemplateSelectors -> Templating cells -> example.xaml)

Im using the RadControls for WPF Q1 2010 SP2, however this property does not appear, I can set the property CellTemplate property but not a CellTemplateSelector. Should this be possible?

    
            <telerik:GridViewDataColumn UniqueName="direction"   
        
                                        Header="Direction" DataMemberBinding="{Binding Path=eventDirection}"/>

Thank you,

                }

Stick chart is also shown (Plz See attachment).

Issue:

I have set telerikChart.DefaultSeriesDefinition.ShowItemLabels = true;
so that to see the Item Label, but stick chart is showing 0 as highlighted in the screenshot. Is there way to see open,Close,Low.high value of the stick as a item label?

Can you please provide me good sample for the same. also provide pointer to doc that explains the Stick chart.

Prevent Drag on GridSplitter

Hello,

Is it possible to prevent drag operation when an user is using a GridSplitter to resize column/row ?

For example :

    
                    <telerik:RadTreeView IsDragDropEnabled="True" ItemTemplate="{StaticResource TreeItemTemplate}">  
        
                        <telerik:RadTreeView.ItemContainerStyle> 
        
                            <Style TargetType="{x:Type telerik:RadTreeViewItem}">  
        
                                <Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Stretch"/>  
        
                            </Style> 
        
                        </telerik:RadTreeView.ItemContainerStyle> 
        
                        <telerik:RadTreeView.Items> 
        
                            <Control Name="control1" Tag="Some text for control1" /> 
        
                            <Control Name="control2" Tag="Some text for control2" /> 
        
                        </telerik:RadTreeView.Items> 
        
                    </telerik:RadTreeView>

    
                        <DataTemplate x:Key="TreeItemTemplate">  
        
                            <Border BorderThickness="1" BorderBrush="LightGray" Margin="2" CornerRadius="5">  
        
                                <Grid> 
        
                                    <Grid.ColumnDefinitions> 
        
                                        <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/>  
        
                                        <ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>  
        
                                    </Grid.ColumnDefinitions> 
        
                                    <TextBlock Grid.Column="0" Text="{Binding Name}" Margin="3,0,10,0"/>  
        
                                    <GridSplitter Grid.Column="0" Width="1" Background="LightGray" ResizeDirection="Columns"/>  
        
                                    <TextBlock Grid.Column="1" Text="{Binding Tag}" Margin="3,0,0,0"/>  
        
                                </Grid> 
        
                            </Border> 
        
                        </DataTemplate>

Is there any solution ? I tried t define dragDrop:RadDragAndDropManager.AllowDrag="False" on GridSplitter but this doesn't work.

I have the same problem using RadDragDropManager in a templated list (Some draggable items contain Slider).

Thanks,
Guillaume.

Invalid property or field - '[FieldName]' for type: Object

I've done some searching, but I didn't see this issue anywhere. Please forgive me if I'm duplicating. There are two issues but they appear related.

Issue #1

I have a RadOutlookBar that is bound to a list of items. Each of the items contains a list which is bound to a grid. The grid is in a template that defines the RadOutlookBar's content. Everything binds fine, but when I select a different RadOutlookBarItem, the grid refreshes, and will throw an exception:

    
            Invalid property or field - '[FieldName]' for type: Object

In this case, it only happens for one field, and only if I specify the DataFormatString.

    
            DataFormatString="{}{0:dd/MM/yyyy}"

As you can see, this field is DateTime type. If I step through the exceptions, the field will load properly.

Issue #2

This issue is very similar to the above. We have a RadTabControl that is bound to a list. The list items also contain lists which are bound to a template that contains a grid. In this case, the items are different types and so the grids themselves are defined in different DataTemplates targeting their specific DataTypes. Initially, everything loads just fine, but when you select a different tab, an exception with the same message as issue #1 will be thrown for each column that was defined in the originally selected tab. This time though, the type is the type of item listed in the newly selected tab's grid.

    
            Invalid property or field - '[FieldName from previous]' for type: [Row data type for selected]

Again, after stepping through the exceptions, the grid loads just fine.

One tip for reproducing the exceptions if they are not being caught (the code is just throwing exceptions away):
Go to Debug -> Exceptions..
Tick the "Thrown" checkbox next to "Common Language Runtime Exceptions".

How to prevent DragDrop between ListBoxItem

Hi there,

I just like my Drop working if the target is inside the same ListBoxItem, not across ListBoxItem.

For instatnce, I put the the telerik's FirstLook example(aa1:eample) in ListBox:
<ListBox Grid.Row="1">
<ListBoxItem Height="250"> <aa1:Example></aa1:Example></ListBoxItem>

</ListBox>

The control will show 2 times, I can drag from ListBoxItem1 and drop to ListBoxItem2. What I need is drag from ListBoxItem1 and drop the other side of ListBoxItem1, avoid dropping to different ListBoxItem. Is any way to fix that?

Thanks!

Amy

Can't cast selected row

I'm using endless scrolling. (based on this code: "Endless scrolling of 2mil. records" that is updated for Q2010 here: http://www.telerik.com/ClientsFiles/159249_wpfapplication1.zip)

The problem is I can't get data from selected row. I see the data in debugger (var row = radGrid.SelectedItem;) but don't know How to get.

I can change the "QueryableCollectionView" from:

    
            orderby s.artist, s.title 
        
            select new { s.artist, s.title, s.id});

to:

    
            orderby s.artist, s.title 
        
            select s);

Then I can get my class from Datacontex, but then the grid scroll to top evrytime it fill ut with new data, and I don't like that...

GridViewComboBoxColumn text is clipped when editing

Hi there,

We are using the GridViewComboBoxColumn to display a set of times available for the user to pick from in a given day of the week.

The client would like to choose from values like "0759", "1700", "1130", etc. Basically it's just a 4 digit text value. Because of their screen size requirements we need to make the column width as small as possible.

The problem I'm having is that when the user attempts to edit the column, when the cell changes to a Textbox with the arrow, the last digit gets clipped. This poses a problem because the user likes to Tab through the cells making changes and they cannot see the true value because the last digit is clipped.

You can see an example in this screenshot.

it appears like there is plenty of room next to the arrow pointing down, but there appears to be some excessive left-padding on that arrow that is overlapping the text.

Is there anyway I can adjust this?
