RadCarouselPanel not scroll by clicking item

Hi,

I have used RadCarouselPanel with Button (Images used in the ex.) control as items as well appllied style to button. The problem is I am not getting scroll effect while clicking on button as demo shows whereas it shows as Carousel effect on the form.

<telerik:RadCarouselPanel x:Name="Panel1" VerticalAlignment="Center"
            IsOpacityEnabled="True" IsScalingEnabled="True" IsPathVisible="True"
            PathPadding="50" CanHorizontallyScroll="True" CanVerticallyScroll="True" >
                <Button Style="{DynamicResource StudyMode}">Menu 1</Button>
                <Button Style="{DynamicResource StudyMode}">Menu 2</Button>
                <Button Style="{DynamicResource StudyMode}">Menu 3</Button>
                <Button Style="{DynamicResource StudyMode}">Menu 4</Button>
                <Button Style="{DynamicResource StudyMode}">Menu 5</Button>
                <Button Style="{DynamicResource StudyMode}">Menu 6</Button>
            </telerik:RadCarouselPanel>

I can not understand what is missing. I could not find any method / way to get it work.

Thanks in advance for any help

Export

Do your chart controls have any export abilities? i.e. PDF, Excel, etc.

I read that charts could be saved as an image. Is it possible to save as a vector graphic?

RowIndicator background

Hi,

I've got some problems with the GridView style:

1) How can I change the background of a RowIndicator. I tried this but it doesn't works:

    
            <Style x:Key="{x:Type telerik:GridViewIndicatorCell}" TargetType="telerik:GridViewIndicatorCell">   
        
                <Setter Property="Background" Value="{StaticResource GridViewHeaderCellBackgroundBrush}" />   
        
            </Style>

2) How can I change the height of the columns header? This is not working correctly:

    
            <Style TargetType="telerik:GridViewHeaderCell">   
        
                <Setter Property="Height" Value="50" />   
        
            </Style>

3) I've tried this:

    
            <Style TargetType="{x:Type telerik:GridViewCell}">   
        
                <Setter Property="OverridesDefaultStyle" Value="False" />   
        
                <Setter Property="Validation.ErrorTemplate" Value="{x:Null}" />   
        
                <Style.Triggers>   
        
                    <Trigger Property="Validation.HasError" Value="True">    
        
                        <Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="1" />    
        
                        <Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="Red" />   
        
                        <Setter Property="ToolTip" Value="{Binding RelativeSource= {RelativeSource Self},                                                       Path=(Validation.Errors)[0].ErrorContent}" />    
        
                    </Trigger>   
        
                </Style.Triggers>    
        
            </Style>

but this column doesn't work anymore after that (Cell is empty):

    
            <telerik:GridViewColumn>    
        
            <telerik:GridViewColumn.CellStyle>    
        
            <Style TargetType="{x:Type telerik:GridViewCell}">    
        
                <Setter Property="Template">    
        
                    <Setter.Value>    
        
                        <ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type telerik:GridViewCell}">    
        
                            <Border Background="{TemplateBinding Background}"    
        
                                          BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}"   
        
                                          BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}">   
        
                                    <Button Style="{StaticResource GridImageButton}"     
        
                                                 Click="Delete_Click">    
        
                                            <Image Source="{StaticResource Delete}" />    
        
                                    </Button>   
        
                            </Border>     
        
                        </ControlTemplate>    
        
                    </Setter.Value>    
        
                </Setter>    
        
            </Style>    
        
            </telerik:GridViewColumn.CellStyle>    
        
            </telerik:GridViewColumn>

Do you know why?

Thanks,

Xavier.

Setting NumberFormatInfo in XAML

Can the NumberFormatInfo values (e.g. NumberDecimalDigits) be set in XAML or must they be set in the code behind? The OnLine help only gives examples using code behind.

2009 Q1: Breaking change on update events?

Hi!

After upgrading to the latest release, I no longer receive updates after cells/rows have been edited.

I have attached a small example which I believe would work under last version (can't verify this since I have uninstalled it) but not under Q1.

Is there another way to hook up the events, or some other way to detect changes?

Thanks!

NullReferenceException in get_ItemToolTipTimer

I've got an application that updates the display every 5 mins or so and today I received this exception after it had been running for a couple hours. I'm not using the tool tip at all so I just thought I'd make you aware of it. The charts being shown are all 2D (1 pie, 1 bar and 2 line charts) and don't implement any user interactive behaviour.

Different behavior when I specify a LineSeriesDefinition

I've got 3 charts in my app. When I don't specify a series.Definition, it works great. When I do, I find that it locks up my app if I call DataSeries.Clear() or if I try to replace a data series. I found a kludgey work-around by calling DataSeries.Reset(), then re-adding the data series, however, I'm seeing a lot of overhead with this method.

When I tried to create my DataSeries on a background thread, then call Dispatcher.BeginInvoke() to update the graph on the UI, I'm getting, "The calling thread cannot access this object because a different thread owns it." If I remove the series.Defintion and have the graph draw as a bar graph instead of a line graph, there are no problems whatsoever.

I'm supposed to be showing this at a trade show tomorrow and I'm stuck. It appears that when I specify a LineSeriesDefinition, a new thread internal to the control is introduced into the equation and it's wreaking havoc. Help!

Below is some of the code.

StartUpdatingCharts() is called from a timer:

protected void StartUpdatingCharts(object dummy)

{

foreach (object currentGraph in ActiveGraphs)

{

Thread t = new Thread(UpdateChartInBackground);

t.Start(currentGraph);

}

public void UpdateChartInBackground(Object threadContext)

{

GraphControl currentGraph = threadContext as GraphControl;

FillChartWithData(currentGraph);

}
