Does anyone know how to access the ApplicationMenu on a RadRibbonForm?

I'm trying to add items to the RightColumn area but so far I've not found any documentation on how to get to the Application menu that is NOT added separately but is part of the RadRibbonForm inherently.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I did not find the element, primitive or whatever may be responsible for the color of the hook when a RadCheckBox is checked. Adjusting ButtonElement.CheckMarkPrimitive.CheckElement.ForeColor only applies to the indeterminate square but not to the checked hook.

Am I even able to adjust it's color and would it be dependend of ButtonElement.CheckMarkPrimitive.CheckElement.CheckPrimitiveStyle?

I have some data driven edit fields that I need to edit based on the ControlType enum value in the event handler shown below. Mostly its working, but i have a few questions:

1. Note the commented code in DateEntry. I'd like to customize the date editor as I'm doing this using a DateTimePicker elsewhere in the application. How can I access the properties show in this code?

2. Is there an equivalent of a CheckBox or will I need to use a Yes/no combo box?

Thanks

Carl

I am using a MultiComboBox column in a grid to display attribute types. This is the code to add the column:

                GridViewMultiComboBoxColumn col = new GridViewMultiComboBoxColumn("");
                col.DataSource = maintenance.AttributesTypesSelectAll();
                col.DisplayMember = "attributetype";
                col.ValueMember = "attributetypeid";
                col.FieldName = "attributetypeid";
                col.HeaderText = "Type";
                this.grdAttributes.Columns.Add(col);

This is the code to show the correct editor when the column is selected:

       private void grdAttributes_CellBeginEdit(object sender, GridViewCellCancelEventArgs e)
        {
            if (this.grdAttributes.CurrentColumn is GridViewMultiComboBoxColumn)
            {
                if (!this._isColumnAdded)
                {
                    this._isColumnAdded = true;

                    RadMultiColumnComboBoxElement editor = (RadMultiColumnComboBoxElement)this.grdAttributes.ActiveEditor;
                    editor.EditorControl.MasterTemplate.AutoGenerateColumns = false;
                    editor.EditorControl.Columns.Add(new GridViewTextBoxColumn("attributetype"));
                    editor.EditorControl.Columns["attributetype"].HeaderText = string.Empty;
                    editor.AutoSizeDropDownToBestFit = true;
                }
            }
        }

This works correctly and maps the column to the right value when the column is loaded, but when I edit the column or add a new column it doesn't retain the value. I feel like I'm missing a step but just not sure what at this point. What is the correct way to use a MultiComboBox in a RadGrid to show the text assoicated with an ID field rather than the ID, and then retain that value on add/edits.

Hi, i'm evaluating radchat for winforms for a messenger project i have to do.  

does it natively support multiple authors that are separate from each other?  Think a typical messenger like face book messenger etc.  you have a list of people you're talking to on the left and the current person you're talking to on the right.  

does rad chat support that natively?  if not are there any samples or how too's that show this?

i'd like it to know when a different author is posted to the control and put it in the correct person on the left and light up etc showing it's got a new message.

i've tried adding multiple authors to it with different messages but it just puts them all in the same window with different names above them.

i really need them to be separated out into their own conversations.

Thanks!

Is there a way to set each bar to an individual color within a barseries in a RadChartView?   I have done it with multiple series but the need to be able to sort the bars based on a property and I can not find how to sort across multiple series.  Right now it looks like I could put all the data in a single series and order it how I need it displayed but each group of datapoints will need to have an individual color.  The attached image shows a working chart but it has 4 series and I need to sort by value.

hi all,

I am trying to set some RadDataEntry RadTextBox as ReadOnly, as shown in the following link 

https://www.telerik.com/forums/raddataentry-controls-readonly

Here is my code :

    private void rdeDynamicInput_ItemInitialized(object sender, ItemInitializedEventArgs e)
    {
            if (e.Panel.Controls[0].GetType().ToString() == "Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadCheckBox" ||
                e.Panel.Controls[0].GetType().ToString() == "Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadTextBox")
                  {
                   ((RadTextBox)e.Panel.Controls[0]).ReadOnly = true;
                  }
    }
This code seems to work and checking the control after the instruction shows the attribute set to true, but the display doesn't change and the control stay writable.

 

Thanks for your help

Best

Patrick

how do I move the pre-built "Delete Row" option to the bottom or move my options to the top?


		private void dgvSIQ_ContextMenuOpening(object sender, ContextMenuOpeningEventArgs e)
		{
			RadMenuItem mniProcess = new RadMenuItem();
			RadMenuItem mniVendorInquiry = new RadMenuItem();
			RadMenuSeparatorItem mniSeparate = new RadMenuSeparatorItem();

			e.ContextMenu.Items[0].Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed;
			e.ContextMenu.Items[1].Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed;

			mniProcess.Text = "Process PO";
			mniVendorInquiry.Text = "Vendor Inquiry";
			//e.ContextMenu.Items.Add(mniSeparate);
			e.ContextMenu.Items.Add(mniVendorInquiry);
			e.ContextMenu.Items.Add(mniProcess);

			try
			{
				mniProcess.Click += mniProcess_Click;
				mniVendorInquiry.Click += mniVendorInquiry_Click;
			}
			catch (Exception)
			{
			}

Hello.  Our application is using Telerik WinControls from Q1 2022.

We have a number of context menus where we wish to conditionally disable menu items and show a tooltip that explains why the menu item is disabled.  The problem is that when the menu item is disabled then no tooltip is displayed!

How do we get tooltips to display even when the menu item is disabled?

In the following example we would not see the tooltip when menuItem.Enabled = false;  Can we get a fix for this?  Our work-around is causing other problems.

RadContextMenu contextMenu = new RadContextMenu();

RadMenuItem menuItem = new RadMenuItem("View in Browser");

contextMenu.Items.Add(menuItem);

if (supportsBrowser())

{

     menuItem.Tooltip = "Open your browser";

}

else

{

     menuItem.Enabled = false;

     menuItem.Tooltip = "This device does not support browser access.";

}
