Problem Selecting row in a radGridview with touchscreen

Hello I have a problem selecting rows in a Radgrid with TOUCHSCREEN. At the start, one row is selected (the blue one, as you can see in the screenshot), but when I click on another row nothing happens (I just see small little circus that I'm tapping on the screen). Everythings works fine if I use a mouse attached to the tablet but doesn't work if I use finger on touchscreen. The desired result is that the row "touched" becomes blue and is the SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedItuGrid.

Just to let you know that the radiobutton and the Button X works with touch after I added this instruction: telerik:TouchManager.IsTouchHitTestVisible ="False"

This is the XAML code:

Please let me know,

thank you.

Is it possible to customize HtmlFormatProvider?

Hi,

I am very new to Telerik and I am trying us RichTextBox on my project.

One of the requirement is to export text to HTML5 as responsive.

My thinking is that I need to intercept, customize or subclass HtmlFormatProvider to achieve what I want.

Is intercepting, customizing or subclassing HtmlFormatProvider possible?

Or is there a way to create HTML5 in my way?

Thanks in advance.

Sending DragDrop Commands to ViewModel

this is a followup to the question asked here

Wouldnt it be possible to implement it the way gong-wpf-dragdrop does it without breaking mvvm?

i considerthe line below in codebehind to not break mvvm so i could be wrong.

(DataContext as ViewModel).SelectedRecord

The way gong does it is you bind the view model itself, implement an interface and handle the logic using interface implementations.

Would love to be able to handle that logic in my VM rather than using a behavior

[Solved] RadRichTextBox error with htmlformatprovider

Hello.

I have built a perfectly functional usercontrol, which includes a radrichtextbox with htmldataprovider (pretty nice, pretty easy, works like a charm).

Now I need to expose it to some VB6 client :-/, so as I have done before, I just host it in a winforms form, add some COM interfaces, and it should work all the same (been there, done that...)

Well, no...

It keeps giving me this error:

Value cannot be null. Parameter name: formatProvider

at Telerik.Windows.Documents.FormatProviders.DataProviderBase..ctor(ITextBasedDocumentFormatProvider formatProvider, DependencyProperty stringProperty)
at Telerik.Windows.Documents.FormatProviders.Html.HtmlDataProvider..ctor()

I tried:

<telerik:HtmlDataProvider RichTextBox="{Binding ElementName=SocialHistoriesHtml}" FormatProvider="{StaticResource HtmlFormatProvider}" Html="{Binding HTML}" />

Missing Property causes Filtering and Sorting to no longer work

I'm using RadGridView to show certain properties of a list of elements.
This works as expected as long as all elements in the list have all properties the columns bind to.

But once only one element does not have a property a column binds to the whole columns fails to correctly support sorting and filtering.

When sorting no element is shown at all and the filter dialog does not show any values. See attached screenshots.

This still happens even though a FallbackValue of the right type is provided in the Binding.

Is there a way to make this work? Sadly I can not avoid having some elements that do not implement all properties, so a failing binding most be handled in a better way.

My Xaml:

<Window x:Class="WpfTestApplication.MainWindow"

xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"

xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2008/xaml/presentation"

xmlns:telerikG="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView"

xmlns:telerikD="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Data;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Data"

Title="MainWindow" Height="200" Width="300">

<Grid>

<telerikG:RadGridView ItemsSource="{Binding Elements}" AutoGenerateColumns="False">

<telerikG:RadGridView.Columns>

<telerikG:GridViewDataColumn Header="cost" DataMemberBinding="{Binding cost, FallbackValue=0.0}"/>

</telerikG:RadGridView.Columns>

</telerikG:RadGridView>

</Grid>

</Window>

[Solved] Slowdown without internet

Greetings. I'm using 2014.3.1202.45, so it's possible this is already fixed. If the computer has a network connection, but the internet is not working, there is a delay of a few seconds when initializing the map. This happens when calling Map.Providers.Insert. If there is no network connection at all, this problem does not happen. Is there a way to shorten or eliminate this delay from my side or in the code?

NoXaml Xaml switcheroo

So you guys flag projects by XAML and no XAML so when an upgrade is done you know which files to use.

How can one switch a project from one to the other though so the upgrade extension is aware which one you are trying to do.

Specifically I have two projects that are flagged incorrectly.

the upgrade occurs and the reference to the theme is removed.

I then have to manually find the themes folder and add a reference.

Custom FilterDescriptor

I have been trying to create a custom filter control and I am running into issues.

It seems that even when writing a custom filter, the decision of whether a row will be filtered in or out is based on one or more FilterDescriptors, which basically only take in the name of the data field, one of a set of predefined operators, and the value to compare the value in the data field to.

Is there any way to define our own logic for whether a row will pass the filter? Any way to write in a function that will take in the row item, and let us create more complex logic than what is given out-of-the-box?

[Solved] Set Pie Chart Slice Colors from Code Behind

Is there any way to set the PieChart slice colors from code behind? I know how to do it with other chart styles (i.e. for line charts .. I use <series>.Definition.Appearance.Stroke/Fill). But when you use that same idea for pie charts, all the slices are the same color. Which I expect since I've only got one series.

            var series = new DataSeries { Definition = new PieSeriesDefinition() };
            series.Definition.ShowItemLabels = true;
            series.Add(new DataPoint(_dataList.A, _dataList.A));
            series.Add(new DataPoint(_dataList.B, _dataList.B));

            //series[0].LegendLabel = "Series A";
            //series[1].LegendLabel = "Series B";

            // this is what I do in other charts for each series... but pie charts don't work.
            //series.Definition.Appearance.Stroke = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Black);
            //series.Definition.Appearance.Fill = new SolidColorBrush(myCustomColor);

            RadChart1.DefaultView.ChartArea.DataSeries.Add(series);

If I change the theme colours in XAML using the StylesPalette, the colors change. But I really want to change them from code (dynamic when a user control starts up only, not necessarily dynamic while the app is running). Any ideas? Could the color of of the Fill property in the Xaml be changed using binding?

            <SolidColorBrush x:Key="RadialItemStroke" Color="#FF000000"/>
            <system:Double x:Key="RadialItemStrokeThickness">2</system:Double>
            <telerikStyling:StylesPalette x:Key="{telerikStyling:ThemeResourceKey
                    ThemeType={x:Type telerikStyling:Office_BlackTheme},
                    ElementType={x:Type telerikStyling:ChartArea},
                    ResourceId={x:Static telerikStyling:ResourceHelper.ResourceKeyRadialStyle}}">
                <Style TargetType="{x:Type Shape}">
                    <Setter Property="Stroke" Value="{StaticResource RadialItemStroke}" />
                    <Setter Property="StrokeThickness" Value="{StaticResource RadialItemStrokeThickness}" />
                    <Setter Property="Fill" Value="{Insert some binding expression here?}" />
                </Style>
                <Style TargetType="{x:Type Shape}">
                    <Setter Property="Stroke" Value="{StaticResource RadialItemStroke}" />
                    <Setter Property="StrokeThickness" Value="{StaticResource RadialItemStrokeThickness}" />
                    <Setter Property="Fill" Value="{Insert some binding expression here?}" />
                </Style>
            </telerikStyling:StylesPalette>

Thanks
