My code has LOTS of places where it sets-up new menu items, like:

 With delMenu.Items
            .Add(New RadMenuItem("..section from document", New EventHandler(AddressOf mnuDeleteSectionFromDocument_Click)))

...etc

I am moving it all over to a new version of my app, which is, I think, using a newer verison of the winforms framework.

This code still comiles, but doesn't create the link from the menu item to the address handler, whereas the more long-form approach works just fine:

  Dim aMenuItem = New RadMenuItem("test")
        AddHandler aMenuItem.Click, AddressOf mnuTest
        delMenu.Items.Add(aMenuItem)

Was there a change in the APi, in which case I need to change everything, or is there another way to create all the menu options and their handlers quickly?

Hi,

We currently store our visual theme files separately as xml files (per control) instead of the tssp package file. This allows us to have a more detailed source control over the changes in each control, merging between branches is easier, etc.

Using a manual process, we open the Visual Style Builder, load the complete folder with the given xmls, and save the theme as a package. We then later on, copy the file to our application, and publish it.

We would like to automate the process of generating the tssp package given the xml files either by some tool from Telerik (if it exists), or by using any API available.

Is this possible? if not, can you please suggest an alternative solution?

Thank you.

How do I make a cell or cell ranges read-only ?

I want to show the user the cells values, but don't want them to be able to edit the data.

Thanks

Reading this document: https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/controls/syntax-editor/features/word-wrap

States that wordwrap should now be a thing.  However, it isn't for me.

 

I've updated to the latest Telerik (already was), and no luck.

Basically what the title says.  I've selected part of a document, and I want to replace only part of the text, within that selection.  Is this possible?  I've been trying various things, but so far, no luck.

In short, I've added commenting to my text.  That works fine, but I can't uncomment (remove the comment characters) from the selected text.

In the image below I have five DocumentWindow (state names) and a ToolWindow (Properties). Following this steps, the ActiveWindowChanged event is called twice from different windows:

  1. make Colorado (tabbed window) the active window
  2. make California (Floating window) the active window
  3. make Properties (ToolWindow) the active window. At this point, the ActiveWindowChanged event is called twice. The first one changes the ActiveWindow from California to Colorado. And the second call changes the ActiveWindow from Colorado to Propeties.

This is making the application shows the Colorado properties instead of the California properties.

Is this the expected behavior? Is there a way to fix it?

I am using UI.for.WinForms.AllControls.Net40 v2022.3.921

Is there an event like this in the Spreadsheet control?

What I need is when the user selects a single column, I enable/disable various menu options, but I can't find an event which is fired when a column in a sheet gets selected.

(BTW - I got the name of this event from ChatGPT, which thinks that a RadSpreadsheet has this event, but it's working from data up to 2021, so maybe this is an old event?)

Thanks

I need to show the user some XML, but formatted nicely (identing, colors etc).

Can I use RichTextEditor for this? If so how (vb.net please!).

I don't need to edit the XML now, but I will need to in future (hence not using a Browser-type control)

Thanks

I have a project where the user wants a multi tab control on a WinForm - no problem.

On the first tab however, they want too many controls to fit on the screen, Therefore they want the first tab's RadPageViewPage to scroll up and down. They do not want a sub tab. The problem is that there are so many controls that if they were separate tab they would fill four of them. I realize that scrolling is not the point of a tab control but this is what they want. Still, there are limits to the size of a Form and the size of the RadPageViewPage control.

Is this something that can realistically be done or is this just asking for too much?

Thanks

Carl

Hi,

I'm trying to display the check box in the header of a GridViewCheckBoxColumn and have it centered but it is still not aligned with the rest of the rows. 

I set the column property HeaderCheckBoxAlignment = ContentAlignment.MiddleCenter but still there is a gap. Please see the image attached.

Thank you,
