Telerik killed my VS 2008 install

I company I was consulting to asked me to install the Telerik controls for WPF. A consultant had purchased it for them but had not did any work with it. Not sure if this is a good copy but with the way the eval is going there is little hope that the library will stay installed for very long.

I see a posting about how to do coverflow and a zip file with source. When I copy the XAML to my window what do I see????

Error indicating that the XAML is not correct. And when I went to find the error CTL-F, well my VS 2008 install is now screwed up. No more CTL-F. No more CTL-H.

Beyond that the sample given uses BringDataItemIntoView which does not work.

Since you only get one chance to make a first impression that is gone.

WPF Themes in Q1 2010

The Silverlight Q1 2010 installer included a nice Themes project that allowed easy access to the different themes. This is great for creating custom themes using a Telerik theme as a starting point.

How can I get the themes for the WPF controls?

How to get underlying object... always null

I'm trying to get the underlying object that's bound to a dropped item in a drag-drop operation. In my case the underlying object is of type Model.Topic.

I use the following code:

    
            private void RadTreeView_DragEnded(object sender, Telerik.Windows.Controls.RadTreeViewDragEndedEventArgs e)  
        
                    {  
        
                        object droppedTopics = e.DraggedItems;  
        
                        object targetDropItem = e.TargetDropItem;  
        
                        Model.Topic targetTopic = targetDropItem as Model.Topic;  
        
                        foreach (object droppedTopic in e.DraggedItems as Collection<object>)  
        
                        {  
        
                            Model.Topic sourceTopic = droppedTopic as Model.Topic;  
        
                            targetTopic.ParentTopicId = sourceTopic.ID;  
        
                        }  
        
                    }

The problem is that after the following line, targetTopic is always null.

    
            Model.Topic targetTopic = targetDropItem as Model.Topic;

The question is, what is the correct way to get the underlying object that is bound to a dragged/dropped item?

I have the above user control it is bound to an Items Control which has an ItemsPanelTemplate of type Canvas. I am able to drag and drop the user control around the canvas but when I try resize the user control using the resize thumb, the user control goes into drag mode. I have tried moving the telerikDragDrop:RadDragAndDropManager.AllowDrag="True" to inner controls but then the User Control will not drag on the Canvas. How can I have a drag-able User Control that is also re-sizable?
Here is the code for the the Items control:

    
            <Grid> 
        
                    <ItemsControl x:Name="WidgetItemsControl"  ItemsSource="{Binding WidgetViews}"  Margin="5" > 
        
                            <ItemsControl.ItemsPanel> 
        
                                <ItemsPanelTemplate> 
        
                                    <Canvas  x:Name="WidgetCanvas" Background="#303030" Width="Auto" Height="Auto" ClipToBounds="True" telerikDragDrop:RadDragAndDropManager.AllowDrop="True"  > 
        
                                        <Canvas.ContextMenu> 
        
                                            <ContextMenu Name="WidgetContextMenu">  
        
                                                <MenuItem Command="{Binding NewWidgetCommand}" Header="{x:Static p:Resources.NewWidget}" Icon="{StaticResource NewImage}" InputGestureText="{x:Static p:Resources.ControlW}" /> 
        
                                            </ContextMenu> 
        
                                        </Canvas.ContextMenu> 
        
                            </Canvas> 
        
                                </ItemsPanelTemplate> 
        
                            </ItemsControl.ItemsPanel> 
        
                    <ItemsControl.ItemContainerStyle> 
        
                        <Style> 
        
                            <Setter Property="Canvas.Left" Value="{Binding Left}" />

                </Grid>

It takes a long long time!!!!

Hello....

I am currently working with a grouped RadGridView in which I must add three Sum AggregateFunctions.

The code that I use to do this is the following

radGridInvoiceDetails.ItemsSource = null;
if (CurrentMaster != null)
{
    var collection = from d in dc.InvoiceDetails
                     where d.IdInvoiceMaster == CurrentMaster.Id
                     orderby d.IdProductType, d.ProductDescription, d.BillNumber
                     select d;

    radGridInvoiceDetails.ItemsSource = collection.ToList();
}

GroupDescriptor descriptor = new Telerik.Windows.Data.GroupDescriptor();

descriptor.Member = "ProductFamilyDescription";
descriptor.SortDirection = ListSortDirection.Ascending;
radGridInvoiceDetails.GroupDescriptors.Add(descriptor);

descriptor = new Telerik.Windows.Data.GroupDescriptor();
descriptor.Member = "ProductDescription";
descriptor.SortDirection = ListSortDirection.Ascending;

var sumFunction = new Telerik.Windows.Data.SumFunction();
sumFunction.ResultFormatString = "{0:N2}";
sumFunction.SourceField = "ProductQuantity";
sumFunction.Caption = "Totale Quantità";
descriptor.AggregateFunctions.Add(sumFunction);

sumFunction = new Telerik.Windows.Data.SumFunction();
sumFunction.ResultFormatString = "{0:N2}";
sumFunction.SourceField = "TotalBill";
sumFunction.Caption = "Totale Imponibile";
descriptor.AggregateFunctions.Add(sumFunction);

sumFunction = new Telerik.Windows.Data.SumFunction();
sumFunction.ResultFormatString = "{0:N2}";
sumFunction.SourceField = "TotalVAT";
sumFunction.Caption = "Totale Con IVA";

descriptor.AggregateFunctions.Add(sumFunction);

radGridInvoiceDetails.GroupDescriptors.Add(descriptor);

The result of this is wonderful but it takes up to 90 seconds to load less than 1500 records.

I have read something about QueryableCollectionView but I did not find enough to understand if and how it can help me.

Is there any suggestion to spend less time to have the same result??

Thanks a lot in advance...

InnerException:

The code line 305 is just a : ContactList.Add(current);

Any clues?

Additional information:

I found a temp fix:

I have an event handler that is listening when the collection changes, every time the observable collection is changed, it is reordered, I created a class that inherits from ObservableCollection, I have used that class on Silverlight with your components and it works fine, as I mentioned, the code works fine with Q2 and WPF, my temp solution was to comment the sort code and its working now, not the way that I need, but at least is displaying data.

How move SeriesItemLabel to Right?

Hello:

In a chart of HorizontalBarSeriesDefinition, the SeriesItemLabel are over bar of right to left. I need this label of left to right ( label must be out of the bar). I used the style over SeriesItemLabel with margin = {20,0,0,0}. However, the value is dynamic and continuously over the bar.

have you some solution?
