Documentation about High-DPI mechanisms available on the website is very outdated and mostly does not consider the changes and improvements that Microsoft made with .net 7.0 and 8.0.
What's needed is thorough documentation about Telerik's behavior in comparison with the different situations on .net Framework 4.9 and the major .net Versions 6.0, 7.0, and 8.0.
Kind regards

I’m converting 20+ year old c# .net winform software that a clever internal ex dev wrote a themed control suite for. I’ve been working with those controls for almost the same length of time but am recently tasked with updating the whole app as customers are experiencing fall overs on some modern versions of Windows. Ive had the pleasure of (almost quietly ?) converting/updating by using Telerik for many years as my choice of replacement themed control systems.
Conversion experience has been pretty good, except for combo boxes, probably listboxes too (sorry guys Im writing this in bed at 5am so can’t/won’t just go testing). I did try, i think, using your conversion wizards without success. I do wish that you’d let us add any type of object to a combobox.item array in the same way that microsoft winform control allows.
Ive also noticed that some events dont occur in telerik, eg index changed need to be switched to valuechanged and these are only spotted when testing, which means extra work.
anyway. Bless an thanks to you all for my good experience with Progress/Telerik. Im old, poorly and crumbly now and wont be around much longer. May i last long enough not to need a pension to survive and i hope each of you invests in enough private pension to give yourselves a decent holiday or three per year ;)
I'm a Progress OpenEdge developer and found issue with RadGridView using it in a ABL application. I have been able to reproduce the issue outside of the OpenEdge environment, and have attached a project file.
To see the issue, run the app, and scroll down really quickly with scrollbar thumb to the bottom.
You will then get:
System.NullReferenceException

The following notes will explain what we are doing, since it may not be typical.
The MaxDataGuess functionality offers a time-saving alternative for the OpenEdge BindingSource that binds to a query with
Windows Forms on .net 6.0 / 7.0 / 8.0 diverges more and more from .net Framework 4.x.
Please release a version of the Demo Application that is based on the current Microsoft Release.
Hi
It would be cool if the SyntaxEditor automatically changed the default palette if the selected scheme was dark.
Regards
Erwin
In this case, we have an MS standard Form with control position on the form. Each of the controls has the right anchor. Moving the form to a monitor with a higher resolution messed up the size of the controls.
Hi,
Please, add a property or method to the RadWebCam control to set video bit rate or quality. Currently is fixed a 4 mbits and it results in very poor image quality at high resolutions.
Please find attached images to see the difference between snapshot and video recording. With fast moving pictures is even worse.
Thanks.
Hi- When I add a Rad context menu to a RadToolbarForm, the toolbar vanishes from the designer after a build. This is new behavior because I have other context menus that I had previously added to the form. If I drag a RadContextMenu from the toolkit, or I copy/paste an existing context menu, the toolbar disappears after a build. I am running the latest release (2024.1.130) and toolkit config (although this also happens when running the previous Telerik release)
I tried closing the designer before the build and the toolbar still disappears. Doing a Clean before build has no effect. This form is inherited from a simple RadToolbar form (no controls except the toolbar). The toolbar is still listed in the list of controls for the form
Ha! Just found out what's happening. It's deleting the toolbar configuration code from the designer code. Everything below is gone. If I add it back in, then do anything with the new context menu, like rename it, it gets removed again
Here's my dev environment:
Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2022
PerformClick method of RadButtonElement is sending next error:
System.InvalidCastException: 'Unable to cast object of type 'System.EventArgs' to type 'System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs'.
Find my code below:
private void btnAddField_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
RadDiagramShape sourceShape = new RadDiagramShape()
{
Text = "source",
Shape = new RoundRectShape(5),
BackColor = Color.Red
};
sourceShape.Position = new Telerik.Windows.Diagrams.Core.Point(150, 100);
radDiagram.AddShape(sourceShape);
sourceShape.IsSelected = true;
RadButtonElement additionalContent = Telerik.WinControls.UI.Diagrams.Primitives.ItemInformationAdorner.GetAdditionalContent(
this.radDiagram.DiagramElement.ItemInformationAdorner) as RadButtonElement;
additionalContent.PerformClick();
}
What I want is to display the SettingsPane automatically when adding a RadDiagramShape item in a RadDiagram
Regards
In the image below you can notice lines that disappear, identical lines but rendered more or less thick.
Hi Dinko and Team,
As I mentioned in the previous forum, We need fix for Raddropdownlist.SelectedIndex.
When we set SelectedIndex=5 or some value in selectedIndexchangedEvent then the recursive call is happening for SelectedIndex. So we need to restrict the recursive call for both Raddropdownlist.DataSource as well as Raddropdownlist.SelectedIdex.
private void radDropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.Data.PositionChangedEventArgs e)
{
fillIndustryProcess1(); // radDropDownList1.DataSource = dt; when we set Datasource the recursive call is occurring
radDropDownList1.SelectedIdex = 5; // radDropDownList1.SelectedIdex= 5; when we set Datasource the recursive call is occurring
}
public void fillIndustryProcess1()Old Forums in which , Telerik team fixed the RadDropDownList .SelectedValue.
Previous forums in which , Telerik team yet to fix for RadDropDownList.Datasource.
Thanks,
Maheswari
