RadGridView for WPF: Changing ContextMenu per Cell Clicked

Hi,
I want to be able to display a different context menu depending on which column cell the user right-clicks on as described on this article for the RadGridView for WinForms:
http://www.telerik.com/support/kb/winforms/gridview/radgridview-custom-context-menu-dependent-on-element-clicked.aspx

I need to be able to do the same in WPF. Is it possible?
Thanks,
Laura

No items until user action

Hello,
I tried to recreating the 'First Look' sample with different objects. The code below is taken from the sample. I have only changed one line there.

    
            public Example() 
        
                    { 
        
                        InitializeComponent(); 
        
                        this.sampleRadCarousel.ItemsSource = DAL.GetCustomers(); 
        
                        this.sampleRadCarousel.Loaded += new RoutedEventHandler(sampleRadCarousel_Loaded); 
        
                    } 
        
                    void sampleRadCarousel_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) 
        
                    { 
        
                        Path path = CreateLinePath(); 
        
                        Telerik.Windows.Controls.RadCarouselPanel panel = this.sampleRadCarousel.FindCarouselPanel(); 
        
                        panel.ItemsPerPage = 7; 
        
                        panel.Path = path; 
        
                    }

The issue I am having is that the carousel does not display items until I move the mouse wheel or move the items in a different way.

The moduleCarousel.FindCarouselPanel().BringDataItemIntoView(customer); does not help. Is there a way to refresh or something ?

Tooltip stays on screen

I have a line chart bound to a collection, the X-Axis has DateTime values. The collection gets a new item added every few seconds, and the chart correctly updates. But if I have a tooltip displaying when the chart updates, that tooltip becomes fixed to the screen, permanently visible, even if I move the application window away, until I close the application.

I'm using the 2009 Q2 controls.

Differences between Free WPF and Paid?

I recently downloaded the free version of the WPF controls. Is there any significant difference between the free version and the version that you can purchase from Telerik?

Full documentation

The online documentation for the gridview doesn't seem comprehensive.
Is there any documentation that cover all the details?

Thanks

Tab Icon

I can not seem to figure out how to add an icon to the RadTabItem.Header. To tell you the truth I couldn't figure out hwo to add one to the Standard windows TabControl either ;). I can easily do it in XAML, but I need to do it in the code behind for some dynamically created tabs.

Any pointer?

Thanks!

Set Date to null

I'd like to modify the template of the DatePicker but I'm not sure exactly the best way to go about it. I know that currently if the user clicks on the already selected date then it sets the SelectedDate to null, but what I'd like is a button on the outside of the DatePicker that can be clicked to set the date to null.

So the control would look like

<Textbox with date><Button to bring up calendar><Button to set value to null>

The button would only be clickable when there is a date of course.

I'm considering just putting together a UserControl that has this functionality, but I was wondering if there's an easy way to do it using a DataTemplate.

LabelProperties do not listen on property change when DataContext is set after InitializeComponent

If i have a trigger on IsEnabled in my LabelProperties style an bind that to a DependecyProperty in my ViewModel the Trigger will not 'fire' when i set the DataContext after InitilizeComponent only if i set it before. The problem with this is that IsEnable will not work if i set the DataContext in xaml on a UserControl containing the gauge. I think that this is a faulty behavior because Minor/MajorTickStyle works if i set the DataContext after InitilizeComponent.

well this thread is useless without code so...

RadGridView - Image in a cell

Hi Guys

I am very new to this WPF and Telerik. what i need is a very simple example of now get images to display in my grid. This my XAML code

<telerik:RadGridView Name="RadGridView1" Width="200" AutoGenerateColumns="False" >

<telerik:RadGridView.Columns>

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataType="Image" IsSortable="False" IsFilterable="False" UniqueName="ImageFile" HeaderText="Picture" Width="60" />

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn UniqueName="ShortName" HeaderText="Name" />

</telerik:RadGridView.Columns>

</telerik:RadGridView>

Then at runtime i bind to the grid with the following code

Dim Teammembers As IntyLibrary.TeammemberCollection = IntyLibrary.TeammemberCollection.GetTeamMembers

RadGridView1.ItemsSource = TeamMembers

I get all the data fine in the grid but i get the path name of the images, i need the grid to display the image.
