Questions on UI for WPF Forum

Hello,

I recently installed UI for WPF R3 2016 and today I was updated our project references to use the new version when I noticed a problem.

Several of the .dlls in the WPF45 directory, which should be for assemblies built for .Net 4.5, are actually the version for .Net 4.0.

If you look at the attached image, it's just a screenshot of Windows explorer open to C:\Program Files (x86)\Telerik\UI for WPF R3 2016\Binaries\WPF45. I am showing the file version in the list and there are 10 .dlls that show version number 2016.3.1021.40, when it should be 2016.3.1024.45.

I think an updated installer needs to be posted for this release.

Thanks,

Peter

async / await inside row validating event

I use the gridview's row validating event to perform some validations.

All database methods in my persistence framework are defined async. The validation method needs database access, so it's also defined as async and returns a Task<bool>.

The row validating event handler awaits this validation method. If the validation fails, the isValid property is set to false.

Everything works fine as long as there is no asynchronous database call and the code execution runs synchronously. As soon as I have real asynchronism, the grid view doesn't wait for the completion of the validating event handler anymore. It continues its internal validation and the RowEditEnded event raises - although the RowValidating event handler hasn't finished already.

How can I force the grid view to wait for the asynchronous validation? I know that there are some issues with events and the async/await pattern and I tried different declaration types - without success.

Thanks for you help!

how to disable expanding detail rows when current row invalid

Ok, so I have gridview with IsReadOnly = True. I allow the user to expand the rowdetails and edit data using a raddataform. This the bound object for this form has dataannotations which are used to validate the record. Suppose I have a required field that is left blank. The form recognizes the problem and disables the save button, but I'm still allowed to navigate to another row. How to prevent this (mvvm style ... of course!)?

Thanks ... Ed

RadMenu MVVM style/template selectors

I have been looking through the Telerik RadMenu WPF demos and found the Customization_MVVM_WPF demo.I have a couple of questions with regard to this demo that I hope someone can help me with.

Question:
The MVVM demo has a class "MenuItemContainerTemplateSelector" that does not appear to be used by the demo. I can see that the 'MenuItemStyleSelector' class is used, but am curious when to use the MenuItemContainerTemplateSelector as opposed to the MenuItemStyleSelector? Is there a demo where this MenuItemCoontainerTemplateSelector class is used which I can take a look at the implementation?

What I am trying to accomplish:

I need to create a RadMenu which dynamically binds to a collection of ViewModels (RadMenuItems) and uses DataTemplates or styles to tell 'how' to display each of the ViewModels. Are there examples demonstrating this which I have not yet found? The Customization_MVVM_WPF demo somewhat covers this, but attempting to move the MenuItemsSource in this demo out of the XAML and into a collection of ViewModels which the RadMenu binds to seems to not work.

Bind Row number to current item

Hello,

I am using this example to get a row number in my gridview:
http://www.telerik.com/forums/how-to-display-the-row-number

I altered the code from the example and added a dependency property to it, which I am binding to a property of an item from the itemssource collection of the gridview.

public class RowNumberPresenter : TextBlock

{

private GridViewDataControl _parentControl;

public GridViewDataControl ParentControl

{

get { return this._parentControl; }

private set

{

if (this._parentControl != null)

this._parentControl.Items.CollectionChanged -= new NotifyCollectionChangedEventHandler(Items_CollectionChanged);

this._parentControl = value;

if (this._parentControl != null)

this._parentControl.Items.CollectionChanged += new NotifyCollectionChangedEventHandler(Items_CollectionChanged);

}

public RowNumberPresenter(GridViewDataControl parentControl, object dataItem)

: base()

{

ParentControl = parentControl;

SetText(dataItem);

}

private void Items_CollectionChanged(object sender, NotifyCollectionChangedEventArgs e)

{

SetText(this.DataContext);

}

private void SetText(object dataItem)

{

if (this.ParentControl.IsGrouping)

{

var group = this.ParentControl.FindGroupByItem(dataItem);

if (group != null)

{

var items = group.Items as ReadOnlyObservableCollection<object>;

if (items != null)

this.Text = (items.IndexOf(dataItem) + 1).ToString();

}

if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(this.Text))

this.Text = (this.ParentControl.Items.IndexOf(dataItem) + 1).ToString();

}

public class RowNumberGridViewColum : GridViewColumn

{

private RowNumberPresenter _rowNumberPresenter;

public override FrameworkElement CreateCellElement(GridViewCell cell, object dataItem)

{

_rowNumberPresenter = cell.Content as RowNumberPresenter;

if (_rowNumberPresenter == null)

_rowNumberPresenter = new RowNumberPresenter(this.DataControl, dataItem);

CurrentIndex = Int32.Parse(_rowNumberPresenter.Text);

return _rowNumberPresenter;

}

public int CurrentIndex

{

get { return (int)GetValue(CurrentIndexProperty); }

set { SetValue(CurrentIndexProperty, value); }

}

public static readonly DependencyProperty CurrentIndexProperty =

DependencyProperty.Register("CurrentIndex", typeof(int), typeof(RowNumberGridViewColum));

}

<cControlsTelerik:RowNumberGridViewColum

IsReadOnly="True"

TabStopMode="Skip"

TextAlignment="Center"

CurrentIndex="{Binding Path=OrderRowData.SequenceNumber}">

<cControlsTelerik:RowNumberGridViewColum.Header>

<TextBlock Text="No.:"/>

</cControlsTelerik:RowNumberGridViewColum.Header>

</cControlsTelerik:RowNumberGridViewColum>

The binding is not working and I am I am a little stuck how to bind the rownumber of the row to my dataobject (a OrderRow object).
I receive the error that OrderRowData is not a property of OrderViewModel, OrderViewModel is my VM for the whole view?

The Itemssource of the gridview is set to a Rows property on my OrderViewModel, this Rows collection contains all the OrderRowData instances visible in the grid.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

Marcel
