Hello,

I'm using the telerik TreeView, which uses the default telerik style for the scrollbar. The other scrollbars in the application have the default windows style. How can I apply the default windows style to the telerik scrollbar?

Title for a Grid

Hi,

Not sure where's the best place to post this.

We're looking to create a title for a grid that looks like a docking pane's title - that is, using the Outlook 2007 blue theme you get a light blue background and a navy-ish font color. We're looking for something that is themed the same so if we ever change the theme this will change as well.

Any idea how to do this?

Thanks,
yonadav

GridViewDataColumn with XAML-Image

Hello

I'm trying to do the following in my c# code:

                                Binding binding = new Binding();         
                        binding.Path = new PropertyPath("Image");         
                        binding.Mode = BindingMode.OneWay;         
                     
                        GridViewDataColumn imgCol = new GridViewDataColumn();         
                        DataTemplate dataTempl = new DataTemplate();         
                        FrameworkElementFactory rectElement = new FrameworkElementFactory(typeof(Rectangle));         
                        rectElement.SetBinding(Rectangle.FillProperty, binding);         
                        rectElement.SetValue(Rectangle.WidthProperty, 16.0);         
                        rectElement.SetValue(Rectangle.HeightProperty, 16.0);         
                        dataTempl.VisualTree = rectElement;         
                        imgCol.CellTemplate = dataTempl;         
                     
                        forGrid.Columns.Insert(0, imgCol);         

Every Row-Object has an "Image"-property which contains a XAML-Vectorgraphic. My target is to create a column for the rowobject which shows the image. I was able to do this with the WPF-Toolkit-DataGrid and was wondering how it would work with the RadGridView.

Any suggestions?

Thank you

How change the left icon on RadWindow.Alert

Hi,

I need to be able to change the left icon in a WPF RadWindow.Alert window. From what I understand this can only be achieved via a theme. Do you have a sample WPF VS2008 or VS2010 project demonstrating this ability?

Thanks heaps.

Grouped Grids at Design Time, dont show grouped footer data

Hi All

I have created a grid based on the examples where the GroupFooterTemplate is used to show sums etc in the footer of each group.

This works fine if I group at runtime, but if I specify the groups at design time, this binding does not seem to be piking up the grouped totals and nothing is show in the GroupFooterTemplate sections.

I need to be able to configure design time grouping as it is crucial to our application.

Please find the xaml I am using below:

    
            <grid:RadGridView x:Name="radGridViewRaw1" ItemsSource="{Binding collectionRaw}" Margin="0" ShowColumnFooters="True" ShowGroupFooters="True" 
        
                                         AutoGenerateColumns="False" IsReadOnly="True" CanUserFreezeColumns="False"> 
        
                                    <grid:RadGridView.GroupDescriptors> 
        
                                        <data:GroupDescriptor Member="PressType" /> 
        
                                        <data:GroupDescriptor Member="ProcessWeek" /> 
        
                                    </grid:RadGridView.GroupDescriptors> 
        
                                    <grid:RadGridView.Columns> 
        
                                        <grid:GridViewDataColumn Header="Press Type" DataMemberBinding="{Binding PressType}" /> 
        
                                        <grid:GridViewDataColumn Header="Week" DataMemberBinding="{Binding ProcessWeek}" /> 
        
                                        <grid:GridViewDataColumn Width="200" Header="Copies Printed" TextAlignment="Right" DataMemberBinding="{Binding CopiesActual}" DataFormatString="{}{0:c}"> 
        
                                            <grid:GridViewDataColumn.AggregateFunctions>

                                                <data:AverageFunction Caption="Average: " ResultFormatString="{}{0:c}" SourceField="CopiesActual" />

Collapsible Outlook Bar

Hi,

The Navigation bar in Outlook can be collapsed to the left. Does the Telerik RadOutlookBar provide this capability?

None of your samples show this feature.

Thanks heaps.

Bind to User.Settings

Hey guys,
I am trying to use a RadComboBox to bind to a Specialized.StringCollection in my User.Settings. I am able to load the ComboBox from the collection, but the twoway binding does not seem to work. Is this possible with just stright XAML binding or do I need to create a whole class to accomodate this? I have the twoway binding working for my Window properties so I do know that I appear to have my ResourceDictionary configured correctly. Below is what I have so far.

XAML

<telerikInput:RadComboBox x:Name="comboTheme" ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource settings}, Path=Default.Theme}"

                        SelectedItem="{Binding Default.Theme, Mode=TwoWay}"/>

App.Config

<userSettings>

    <EliteExtender.Shell.Properties.Settings>

      <setting name="MainWidth" serializeAs="String">

        <value>800</value>

      </setting>

      <setting name="MainHeight" serializeAs="String">

        <value>625</value>

      </setting>

      <setting name="MainState" serializeAs="String">

        <value />

      </setting>

      <setting name="Theme" serializeAs="Xml">

        <value>

          <ArrayOfString xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

            xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

            <string>Office_Blue</string>

            <string>Office_Black</string>

            <string>Office_Silver</string>

            <string>Summer</string>

            <string>Vista</string>

            <string>Windows7</string>

          </ArrayOfString>

        </value>

      </setting>

    </EliteExtender.Shell.Properties.Settings>

  </userSettings>

ResourceDictionary (registered in App.Xaml)

<ResourceDictionary

    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"

            <settings:Settings x:Key="settings" />

        </ResourceDictionary>

Tick margins

Is it possible to set a margin for the last and first ticks that appears on the slider?
In the example giving at http://blogs.telerik.com/KirilStanoev/Posts/08-07-24/Using_ValueConverter_to_edit_Slider_s_TickTemplate.aspx?ReturnURL=%2fKirilStanoev%2fPosts.aspx
January and December do not have left and right margins, respectively. I do not want the first and last words to go beyond their ticks. What I want is the letter "J" of January to go right above its tick and so for the letter "R" of December.

I would also like to give the selected tick more visibility when selected. So I was wondering if it is possible to highlight or to maximize the tick when selected.

Programatically grouping

Hi all,

I'm writing an app the MVVM way and have set up a ViewModel to bind to a view, which is a user control that contains a RadGridView. The data binds correctly and am able to see this however there are 3 group descriptors I wish to add and when I add this programmatically, the grid duplicates my rows, so now, my grid contains a duplicate or of each row. One type of the rows containing the full grouping while the other only with 2 of my 3 groupings. If I remove the groupings manually from the grid and re-add these they work perfectly (without duplicate rows). I am adding the group descriptions on the RadGridView_Load event. In the same event I also programmatically create columns.

Any help would be great.

Cheers,

Tim.
