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

Hello

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.

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:

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.

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">

i need to extend a RadComboBox which will load bind same data to itself. i dont want to rewrite this data binding code in different forms. so is it possible to extend combo box to bind some data and use it in other places?

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.

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.

Hi,

after trying around for quite a while, I decided to post a message here because I just don't get the meaning of the different properties of a GridViewComboBoxColumn.

I have a MainViewModel with an ICollectionView property called "ItemsView" which is used as ItemsSource for my RadGridView. The ICollectionView contains items of type PersonViewModel. PersonViewModel has several properties, one of them is called "AgeGroup" and has the type EnumViewModel<EAgeGroup>. The EnumViewModel<TEnum> class has an object property called "LocalizedValue". The MainViewModel also has a property "AvailableAgeGroups" of type ObservableCollection<EnumViewModel<EAgeGroup>> which contains EnumViewModels for all available enum values of type EAgeGroup.

Here is some sample code showing all these classes and properties:


As you can imagine, the EnumViewModel class serves as a "string/localization provider" for enums.

Now, I want to create a ComboBoxColumn which uses the "AvailableAgeGroups" collection as the ItemsSource for the ComboBoxes. The relevant property in the PersonViewModel is, of course, "AgeGroup". So, this property should decide which of the age groups is selected. But, the displayed value should be taken from the "LocalizedValue" property of the value from the "AgeGroup" property. To sum it up, I want to display "PersonViewModel.AgeGroup.LocalizedValue", but the actual item should be "PersonViewModel.AgeGroup".

Now, from what I know from typical .NET controls, I created this column as follows:

But nothing is displayed in the column, only empty cells. However, when I click the Filter button in the header, all possible values are displayed, so it somehow knows the values. Not everything is wrong, it seems. :)

Any advice on this one?
Thanks.
