I have a XAMLDataProvider that is binding a string property to a RadRichTextBox.

I want to be able to bind the content of the RadRichTextBox to a string (which I have done) and then once a save button is pressed, I need to run some code similar to this.

Telerik.Windows.Documents.FormatProviders.OpenXml.Docx.DocxFormatProvider provider = new Telerik.Windows.Documents.FormatProviders.OpenXml.Docx.DocxFormatProvider();
RadDocument document = new RadDocument(string myXAMLString);
byte[] output = provider.Export(document);

Essentially I need to be able to bind a property from the ViewModel to RadRichTextBox..... which I am doing with XAML data provider.

Then after a save button is clicked, I take the property which is a string and I need to create a RadDocument from the string that represents that and export that document to a byte[].

Is there an easier and better way to be doing this?

Thanks!

RadCartesianChart LinearAxis DateFormat Germany?

Hi,

i found a sample:

    <Window.Resources>
        <local:DoubleToDateTimeLabelConverter x:Key="DoubleToDateTimeLabelConverter" />
    </Window.Resources>
    <Grid>
        <telerik:RadCartesianChart>
            <telerik:RadCartesianChart.HorizontalAxis>
                <telerik:LinearAxis>
                    <telerik:LinearAxis.LabelTemplate>
                        <DataTemplate>
                            <TextBlock Text="{Binding StringFormat='h:MM tt', Converter={StaticResource DoubleToDateTimeLabelConverter}}" />
                        </DataTemplate>
                    </telerik:LinearAxis.LabelTemplate>
                </telerik:LinearAxis>
            </telerik:RadCartesianChart.HorizontalAxis>
            
            <telerik:RadCartesianChart.VerticalAxis>
                <telerik:CategoricalAxis />
            </telerik:RadCartesianChart.VerticalAxis>
            
            <telerik:LineSeries CategoryBinding="City" ValueBinding="StartTimeOA" ItemsSource="{Binding}" />
        </telerik:RadCartesianChart>
    </Grid>

        public MainWindow()
        {
            InitializeComponent();

            var Items = new ObservableCollection<PlotItemViewModel>();
            var dateTime = DateTime.Now;
            Items.Add(new PlotItemViewModel() { City = "Atlanta", StartTime = dateTime.AddMinutes(5) });
            Items.Add(new PlotItemViewModel() { City = "Atlanta", StartTime = dateTime.AddMinutes(10), });
            Items.Add(new PlotItemViewModel() { City = "New York", StartTime = dateTime.AddMinutes(100), });
            Items.Add(new PlotItemViewModel() { City = "Miami", StartTime = dateTime.AddMinutes(120), });
            Items.Add(new PlotItemViewModel() { City = "Miami", StartTime = dateTime.AddMinutes(150), });
            Items.Add(new PlotItemViewModel() { City = "Savannah", StartTime = dateTime.AddMinutes(200), });
            Items.Add(new PlotItemViewModel() { City = "Birmingham", StartTime = dateTime.AddMinutes(250), });
            Items.Add(new PlotItemViewModel() { City = "New Orleans", StartTime = dateTime.AddMinutes(280), });

            this.DataContext = Items;
        }
    }

    public class PlotItemViewModel
    {
        public string City { get; set; }
        public DateTime StartTime { get; set; }
        public double StartTimeOA { get { return this.StartTime.ToOADate(); } }
    }

    public class DoubleToDateTimeLabelConverter : IValueConverter
    {
        public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
        {
            double doubleValue = double.Parse(value.ToString());
            return DateTime.FromOADate(doubleValue);
        }

        public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
        {
            throw new NotImplementedException();
        }
    }

The Result is:

Here is the Dateformat "us-US" (10:05 AM / 4:06 PM) but i need German "de-DE" (10:05 / 16:06) !

Have anyone a idea how i can do this?

Best regards

Changing table properties in code after calling InsertTable()

I have a button which inserts a table.

myRichTextBox.InsertTable(2,4)

I want to modify some properties on the table after it is inserted.

I want to set fontsize, fontfamily, change border and cell color to RED and make it so that the table will always fill the available width. Is this a possibility? Or do I have to manually build out the entire table and insert at cursor location?

Removing Tabs programmatically.

Hello,

I'm trying to remove tab items from RadTabControl where ItemsSource is bound to an ObservableCollection<RadTabItem>. However, when an item is deleted from the collection the tab does not disappear. The desired behavior is for the tab to disappear. What do I need to do to achieve this?

Here's what I have:

xaml declaration:

 <telerik:RadTabControl x:Name="radTabControl"  
                     
                                ItemsSource="{ Binding Tabs }"
                                Padding="0, 0, 0, 0" 
                                Margin="0, 0, 0, 0" >

         </telerik:RadTabControl>

Here, I declare Tabs as an observable collection:

   public ObservableCollection<RadTabItem> Tabs { get; set; }

Here is where the tab items are deleted:

  private void RemoveTab(int dev)
        {
                Tabs.Clear();
 
        }

I'm not very familiar with WPF and Telerik in general. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

RadGridView randomly changes cell content

Hi,

I'm using the CellLoaded event to customize a RadGridView. Setting a background brush and foreground + fontweight for the TextBlock in the cell works as expected. I'm also using the AutoGeneratingColumn event to set a DataTemplate for a column.

Now I want to use DataTemplates for individual cells. But when I do so I have to set a DataTemplate for every cell, every time it's rendered. If I'm not setting a DataTemplate I get a random content from a random cell, everytime a cell is scrolled into view. If I'm using DataTemplates for all cells I can't edit the cells anymore.

Is there anything I can do to stop the RadGridView messing up my cells? Changing the virtualization settings didn't changed anything, even if I disabled virtualization (VirtualizingPanel.IsVirtualizing="False").

This is my GridView now:

<telerik:RadGridView AutoGenerateColumns="True"
                     VirtualizingPanel.VirtualizationMode="Recycling"                                     
                     Grid.Row="1"
                     x:Name="Gv"
                     Margin="0 20 10 0"
                     SelectionMode="Extended"
                     SelectionUnit="Cell"
                     CellLoaded="GvCellLoaded"
                     BeginningEdit="GvEditBegins"
                     CellEditEnded="CellEditEnded"
                     AutoExpandGroups="True"
                     GroupRenderMode="Flat"
                     ValidatesOnDataErrors="None"
                     telerik:TouchManager.TouchMode="None"
                     CanUserSortColumns="False"
                     CanUserSortGroups="False"
                     IsReadOnly="False"
                     AllowDrop="True"
                     ItemsSource="{Binding Items}"
                     FrozenColumnsSplitterVisibility="Collapsed"
                     ContextMenuOpening="GvContextMenuOpening"
                     ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Visible"
                     ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Visible"
                     PreviewMouseRightButtonDown="GvRightMouseDown"

.NET 8 support?

I was surprised when I downloaded the latest Q2 release to not find any folder with .NET 8 DLLs, only .NET 7.

NET 7 is already at "End of Support" as of May 14th according to Microsoft.

https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/platform/support/policy/dotnet-core

Considering NET 8 is designated as having LTS (long term support) from Microsoft I was wondering what Telerik's plans are regarding a NET 8 release of your WPF suite?

We would like to move from .NET 6 which we currently use, to .NET 8 which has LTS.

Setting OverrideColor of RadSVGImage in DataTrigger

Hello,

I'm not sure if this is a bug or if this just isn't the way to change the OverrideColor for this case. I ran into an error when attempting to use the following:

<telerik:RadToggleButton Grid.Row="0" Background="Transparent" BorderThickness="0">
    <telerik:RadToggleButton.Content>
        <telerik:RadSvgImage Height="60" Width="60">
            <telerik:RadSvgImage.Style>
                <Style TargetType="telerik:RadSvgImage">
                    <Style.Triggers>
                        <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding IsChecked, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType=telerik:RadToggleButton}}" Value="False">
                            <Setter Property="UriSource" Value="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type local:MainWindow}}, Path=PlusImagePath}"/>
                            <Setter Property="OverrideColor" Value="Blue"/>
                        </DataTrigger>
                        <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding IsChecked, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType=telerik:RadToggleButton}}" Value="True">
                            <Setter Property="UriSource" Value="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type local:MainWindow}}, Path=MinusImagePath}"/>
                            <Setter Property="OverrideColor" Value="Red"/>
                        </DataTrigger>
                    </Style.Triggers>
                </Style>
            </telerik:RadSvgImage.Style>
        </telerik:RadSvgImage>
    </telerik:RadToggleButton.Content>
</telerik:RadToggleButton>

My intention here is to have the OverrideColor change the color of the svg image I am also setting using UriSource. I get the following error only when going from IsChecked being true to being false.

Drag and Drop from RadListBox to RadGridView with RowDataTemplate

Hi,

I wanted to know if it is contemplated the possibility of drag and drop from a component such as the RadListBox for example to a RadGridView which has as RowDataTemplate another RadGridView. But, only allow to drag the activity of the RadListBox to the child RadGridView. How could I achieve that?

Thanks in advance.
