TabControl ScrollViewer_MouseWheel unhandled exception

Hi guys,
my application recently logged the following unhandled exception.
It happened just once and I'm unable to reproduce it, but looking at the stacktrace it seems an invalid cast on the RadTabControl.ScrollViewer_MouseWheel.

I never subscribe to that event so I'm assuming it's something related to RadTabControl internal implementation...
Can you have a look at it?

Thanks

Manuel

Grouping and UI Virtualization

Hi,

We are using WPF RadGridView in our screen.
We notice that the screens which have RadGridView without grouping perform better but the screens where grouping is enabled take a long time to load.
Our best guess is that UI virtualization is not happening for RadGridView with grouping enabled.

Is UI Virtualization turned off when grouping is enabled? If yes, please suggest an alternative way to improve performance.

Thanks.

GridViewCell ControlTemplate binding

Hello,
i have a controltemplate for GridViewCell and I'm having some problems with its binding.
First of all when i used: (the column is binded to Price)

    
            Text="{Binding Path=Content.Field.Value}"

The value disapears from the cell when the row is selected.

Then i tried:

    
            Text="{Binding Path=DataContext.Price, Mode=TwoWay, Converter = {StaticResource CentPriceConverter}, RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type telerik:GridViewRow}}}"

but this way the value in the source object is not updated. the setter is called with the old value

can you tell what I'm doing wrong?

my controlTemplate looks like this:

    
                            <ControlTemplate x:Key="PriceExpandedCell" TargetType="telerik:GridViewCell">  
        
                                <Border Name="Part_Border"   
        
                                        CornerRadius="0"   
        
                                        Loaded="Part_Border_Loaded" 
        
                                        Height="Auto" 
        
                                        BorderBrush="{StaticResource SolidBorderBrush}" 
        
                                        VerticalAlignment="Stretch">  
        
                                    <StackPanel Name="Part_StackPanel"   
        
                                                ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Hidden" 
        
                                                Orientation="Vertical" 
        
                                                Background="{Binding Path=Background, RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type telerik:GridViewRow}}}">  
        
                                        <TextBox Name="Part_Text"    
        
                                                 Width="Auto"   
        
                                                 BorderThickness="0" 
        
                                                 Background="Transparent" 
        
                                                 Margin="2,2,2,2"   
        
                                                 TextChanged="Part_Text_TextChanged" 
        
                                                 Foreground="{Binding Path=Foreground, RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type telerik:GridViewRow}}}" 
        
                                                 Text="{Binding Path=DataContext.Price, Mode=TwoWay, Converter = {StaticResource CentPriceConverter},   
        
                                            RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type telerik:GridViewRow}}}"/> 
        
                                        <Button Content="Discount" Margin="15,3,3,3"   
        
                                                Name="btnDiscount" 
        
                                                Click="btnDiscount_Click" 
        
                                                HorizontalAlignment="Left" 
        
                                                Style="{StaticResource CompactButton}"/>  
        
                                    </StackPanel> 
        
                                </Border> 
        
                                <ControlTemplate.Triggers> 
        
                                    <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding Path=IsSelected, RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type telerik:GridViewRow}}}" Value="True">  
        
                                        <Setter TargetName="Part_StackPanel" Property="Background" Value="{StaticResource HighlightGradientBrush}"/>  
        
                                    </DataTrigger> 
        
                                    <Trigger Property="IsInEditMode" Value="True">  
        
                                        <Setter TargetName="Part_Border" Property="BorderThickness" Value="3"/>

Determine if upload is in progress

Is there a property that I can reliably use to determine if the CloudUpload is currently working on 1 or more uploads? I suppose I could subscribe to one of the events and set a custom property if not.

Access elements inside of a page

Hi
I'm trying to using RadBook control to display a PDF file and also a custom control named DrawingCanvas to draw some shapes over the PDF file loaded.
I've done this successfully thanks to the vast amount of samples available.
Here is how I do:

I load the file as follows:

private void LoadFile(String filePath)

{

documentStream = new FileStream(filePath, FileMode.Open);

var doc = new PdfFormatProvider(documentStream, FormatProviderSettings.ReadOnDemand).Import();

book.ItemsSource = doc.Pages;

}

And here is the DataTemplate which I use:

<DataTemplate x:Key="PageTemplate">

<Viewbox>

<Grid>

<ui:FixedDocumentSinglePagePresenter Page="{Binding}" Width="500" Height="500"/>

<hosts:DrawingCanvas Width="500" Height="500" Margin="15" Background="#00000000" />

</Grid>

</Viewbox>

</DataTemplate>

And everything works great.
My problem is that, when the page is changed (on PageChanged event), I want to access the DrawingCanvas!
I tries the 2 approaches mentioned in this post How to access controls in RadBook DataTemplete?, but it doesn't help me.
When using the loaded event, I have 2 problems:

When paging back, the events (sometimes) does not raise!
It seems the RadBook caches the pages, so while RightPageIndex is 0, I get events of canvases in page 1 and 2.

And when trying to use the RadBook.ItemContainerGenerator the problem is that myBook.ItemContainerGenerator.ContainerFromIndex(leftPageInd) returns null,
and I also tried to use the book.Items property, but my Items type are RadFixedPage (because I've set ItemsSource of book to PdfFormatProvider's Pages property) and I don't know how can I use it to get my DrawingCanvas.

Regards, Vahid
