Convert from Visual Basic to C#

We have been slowly moving away from an antiquated system, "Unidata". We have just completed converting the entire ERP system to Winforms with Visual Basic (interface only. it still is pulling data from Unidata). Next year, we will begin converting from Unidata database to MS SQL. In the future, we will move to C#. I proposed to my team to NOT wait, but to use C# when we convert to MS SQL (at the very least all db calls should be in C#).

We are using VS 2015, .Net 4.7.2, and Telerik WinForms 2019.1.117.40

Before we start the conversion, I would like to move to VS 2019, .Net 5, and the latest Telerik WinForms version

Here is my question:

Is there a recommended conversion tool when moving from Visual Basic to C# that works best for Telerik Winforms?

GridView : Change Text not Value in grid cell

Dear sir/madam,

I am using Telerik Gridview in Winforms. Data is bound to the grid.
I tried to use the CellFormatting event to change the text (that is the visual part) of a particular cell, but it does not work. Changing the value of the cell does work, but that is not wanted.
What I try to achieve is to add some extra text at the end of the text in the cell and add an icon (image) in the cell, without changing the value of the databound item.

Any help is appreciated.

Connecting a connection to another connection

Hello Telerik staff,

First of all, allow me to thank you for all the help your team has provided me. After implementing custom shapes in my RadDiagram, I discovered that I require to create a connection that allows me to link other connections to it (please, see attached image). I have perused the forum and the documentation, but I have not found any clue that could lead me to a solution.

Thank you very much.

Creation of a custom tool and utilization of custom RadDiagramConnection along with the ConnectorTool

Dear Telerik staff,

I am trying to insert a customized connection using the default ConnectorTool into my RadDiagram. However, this seems near impossible because the library does not expose a method to do that, as WPF does (https://www.telerik.com/forums/using-connection-tool-to-draw-custom-connection). Consequently, I decided to create a custom tool, but it is not working. I need a tool that provides the same functionality as the ConnectorTool, but that employs a customized connection that contains its own visual traits and a set of extra properties/variables.
My current code is as follows:

public class CustomTool : ToolBase, IMouseListener

{

public CustomTool(string name) : base(name)

{

this.Name = name;

}

IConnection currentConnection = null;

Point lastPoint;

public virtual bool MouseDown(PointerArgs e)

{

try

{

if (this.ToolService.ActiveTool != null && this.ToolService.ActiveTool.Name.Equals(this.Name))

{

HitTestService hitTestService = MainMenu.getDiagram().ServiceLocator.GetService<IHitTestService>() as HitTestService;

if (this.currentConnection == null)

{

this.currentConnection = new CustomRadDiagramConnection(System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb(150, 45, 90), "test");

if (hitTestService.ShapeUnderMouse != null)

{

this.currentConnection.Source = hitTestService.ShapeUnderMouse;

}

this.currentConnection.StartPoint = e.TransformedPoint;

this.currentConnection.EndPoint = this.lastPoint = e.TransformedPoint;

this.Graph.Items.Add((RadElement)this.currentConnection);

hitTestService = null;

return true;

}

catch (NullReferenceException)

{

MessageBox.Show("Not working");

}

return true;

}

protected override void OnActivated()

{

base.OnActivated();

this.lastPoint = new Point(0, 0);

this.currentConnection = null;

}

protected override void OnDeactivated()

{

base.OnDeactivated();

this.ToolService.ActivateTool("Pointer Tool");

this.Graph.AddConnection(currentConnection);

//this.Graph.Items.Remove((RadElement)this.currentConnection);

this.currentConnection = null;

}

public virtual bool MouseMove(PointerArgs e)

{

if (this.currentConnection != null && this.IsActive)

{

this.currentConnection.EndPoint = this.lastPoint = e.TransformedPoint;

this.currentConnection.Update();

return true;

}

return false;

}

public virtual bool MouseUp(PointerArgs e)

{

HitTestService hitTestService = MainMenu.getDiagram().ServiceLocator.GetService<IHitTestService>() as HitTestService;

if (IsActive)

{

if (hitTestService.ShapeUnderMouse != null)

{

this.currentConnection.Target = hitTestService.ShapeUnderMouse;

}

this.currentConnection.EndPoint = this.lastPoint;

this.currentConnection.Update();

this.DeactivateTool();

hitTestService = null;

return true;

}

return false;

}

public bool MouseDoubleClick(PointerArgs e)

{

return false;

}

Thank you

ContainerShape that "fills" the diagram area and with fixed shapes

I am planning to include two types of radDiagramContainerShape in my project:

1) The first one holds all the shapes that will be created and inserted into the Diagram; hence, it must fill the whole area of the diagram. In other words, it should behave as if it were docked to its parent (radDiagram) in dock.fill mode.
2) The second one will be created each time a "special" shape is instantiated. Then, that shape will be added and locked to it. This container should behave normally with any other shape, but the special one. The special shape must remain fixed to the container.

I have been reviewing the accessible properties and events, but I have not found a way of achieving it yet.

Thank you for your help!

Disable Scrolling for Panning in Grid

Hi, How can I disable grid scrolling associated with a panning gesture? I would like it just to work when using the grid's scrollbar. So, while a user is panning, e.g. panning vertically up, I do not want the grid to scroll.

Thanks!
