Please use the attached sample project.
If I press F2 key and browse the ComboBox, the control works perfectly, better than the Microsoft Windows Forms ComboBox.
Part by part:
- Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadGridView: it is very annoying to receive this information.
- 4;3: this information is very important due to the screen reader says the quantity of rows and columns has the grid.
- Tabla: this information is from the screen reader and the operating system which inform the control type I am browsing.
Testing other controls I have found more accessibility troubles, but I think that it would take too long for this email.
There are situations where SelectedRows won't return the number of rows preselected when using Begin/EndUpdate even though it seems like there's a row selected in the UI. By preselected I mean the row that looks selected after the rows has been added. This bug has caused some problems for us because the user tried some action on a row they thought was preselected and it would fail.
One situation I found where this bug can be reproducted is by using SortOrder in combination of Begin/EndUpdate. There are probably more situations but I hope this one will let you find the underlying bug.
The attached project contains a simple form with a RadGridView which will contain a list of persons. The list is populated by this method:
public void PopulateGridView(List<Person> persons)
{
PersonGridView.BeginUpdate();
PersonGridView.DataSource = persons;
PersonGridView.EndUpdate();
PersonGridView.Columns[nameof(Person.LastName)].SortOrder = RadSortOrder.Ascending;
}There are two buttons: "Step one" and "Step two". The first will mimick a situation where the user search a database for persons and none will be found. By clicking the "Get selected rows" you will see that the SelectedRows will return zero rows which is correct.
But when you afterwards click "Step two" (which will add five rows) it seems like there's one row preselected. I would expect the SelectedRows to return that row but by clicking "Get selected rows" again you will see that the returned rows are zero still. The CurrentRow, however is set to the preselected row as expected.
If you start by clicking "Step two" the SelectedRows actually returns the correct rows. Quite strange :-)
I know this is a very small issue and can be avoided. But as I mentioned there are other situations where this problem occurs and it's quite hard to figure out exactly what causes it.
Thank you for your help.
Best regards

Follow the steps:
1.Group by Description.
2. Expand the groups
3. Sort by Id
4. Try expanding the hierarchical level. You will notice that some of the rows disappear.
Please refer to the attached gif file illustrating the steps for replicating the issue.
Please run the sample project and follow the steps:
1.Open the attached solution in Visual Studio - I am using VS 2022.2.Select the Grid.
3.Edit the templates.
4.For gridViewTemplate1, set SelectNewRowasCurrent to false.
5.Close the editor.
6.Close the WinForms designer.
7.Open the WinForms designer again.
Use the following code snippet:
public RadForm1()
{
InitializeComponent();
GridViewDecimalColumn idColumn = new GridViewDecimalColumn("Id");
this.radGridView1.Columns.Add(idColumn);
GridViewTextBoxColumn nameColumn = new GridViewTextBoxColumn("Name");
this.radGridView1.Columns.Add(nameColumn);
GridViewDateTimeColumn dateColumn = new GridViewDateTimeColumn("Date");
dateColumn.FilteringMode = GridViewTimeFilteringMode.Date;
dateColumn.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom;
dateColumn.CustomFormat = "dd/MM/yyyy";
dateColumn.FormatString = "{0:dd/MM/yyyy}";
this.radGridView1.Columns.Add(dateColumn);
this.radGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode = GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill;
for (int i = 0; i < 50; i++)
{
this.radGridView1.Rows.Add(i,"Row"+i,DateTime.Now.AddDays(i));
}
this.radGridView1.EnableFiltering = true;
this.radGridView1.ShowHeaderCellButtons = true;
this.radGridView1.ShowFilteringRow = false;
this.radGridView1.FilterExpressionChanged += RadGridView1_FilterExpressionChanged;
}
private void RadGridView1_FilterExpressionChanged(object sender, FilterExpressionChangedEventArgs e)
{
Console.WriteLine(e.FilterExpression);
}
If I use the calendar control then the sequence works:
Click the filter button
Click Available filters
Click Equals
Click the calendar button in the value field
Click on December 10, 2021
But if I do not use the calendar control then it does not work. This sequence produces no results:
Click the filter button
Click Available filters
Click Equals
Click on the day component of the value field
Type in 10
Click OK
Workaround:
private void RadGridView1_CreateCompositeFilterDialog(object sender, GridViewCreateCompositeFilterDialogEventArgs e)
{
e.Dialog = new CustomCompositeDataFilterForm();
}
public class CustomCompositeDataFilterForm : CompositeDataFilterForm
{
protected override void OnClosing(CancelEventArgs e)
{
base.OnClosing(e);
if (GridFilterCellElement.ValidateUserFilter(this.FilterDescriptor))
{
CompositeFilterDescriptor cfd = this.FilterDescriptor as CompositeFilterDescriptor;
if (cfd != null)
{
foreach (FilterDescriptor fd in cfd.FilterDescriptors)
{
TrimTimePart(fd);
}
}
else
{
TrimTimePart(this.FilterDescriptor);
}
}
}
private void TrimTimePart(FilterDescriptor filterDescriptor)
{
CompositeFilterDescriptor cfd = filterDescriptor as CompositeFilterDescriptor;
if (cfd != null)
{
foreach (FilterDescriptor fd in cfd.FilterDescriptors)
{
TrimTimePart(fd);
}
}
else
{
DateTime dateValue = DateTime.MinValue;
if (DateTime.TryParse(filterDescriptor.Value + "", out dateValue))
{
dateValue = dateValue.Date;
filterDescriptor.Value = dateValue;
}
}
}
}
To reproduce:
public RadForm1()
{
InitializeComponent();
string txt = "what follows is test characters (some of) which should cause error: เปลี่ยน UPS ที่ห้อง Truck scale เนื่องจากเมื่อวันพฤหัสที่ 13 มีการออฟเบรกเกอร์ที่ ฺฺB/H แต่ว่า เครื่องคอมพิวเตอร์ที่ T/S ดับ ตัว UPS ไม่ทำงาน ทำให้ข้อมูลขณะนั้นหายไป ";
this.label1.Text = txt; // No error
Font font = this.label1.Font;// new Font("Segoe UI", 9.5f, FontStyle.Regular);
this.radLabel1.Font = font;
this.radLabel1.Text = txt; //GDI error

this.radLabel1.UseCompatibleTextRendering = false;

Please refer to the sample project and open the Home form. The attached gif file illustrates how to reproduce the error.
Workaround: define the grid relations via code.
Call the EndPrint method after the printing.
this.radGridView1.Print(true, this.radPrintDocument1);
(this.radGridView1 as IPrintable).EndPrint(null, null);
Use the following code snippet:
GridViewDateTimeColumn orderDate = this.radGridView1.Columns["OrderDate"] as GridViewDateTimeColumn;
orderDate.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom;
orderDate.CustomFormat = "dd-MM-yyyy";
orderDate.FormatString = "{0:dd-MM-yyyy}";
GridViewDateTimeColumn shippedDate = this.radGridView1.Columns["ShippedDate"] as GridViewDateTimeColumn;
shippedDate.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom;
shippedDate.CustomFormat = "dd-MM-yyyy";
shippedDate.FormatString = "{0:dd-MM-yyyy}";When the grid is grouped by a column with a specific format, it should be taken in consideration by the group row as well.
Hi. it was great to see the option "ImageOnly", for columns of small width, where only the image is placed in the header, and the "HederText" property was set, for the correct display of the grouping field
GridViewDataColumn column;
column.HeaderText = "Счет";
column.HeaderImage = ...; // some img
column.TextImageRelation = TextImageRelation.Overlay;
GridViewDataColumn column;
column.HeaderText = "";
column.HeaderImage = ...; // some img
column.TextImageRelation = TextImageRelation.Overlay;
it’s impossible to choose one thing, either an ugly header, or a grouping without a description
When the RadGridView AutoSize property is set to true and a row is expanded, an exception is thrown:
System.InvalidOperationException: 'MeasureOverride returned positive infinity: Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridDetailViewRowElement'
A possible workaround is to replace the GridDetailViewRowElement with your own class. Then overriding the MeasureOverride method we can pass valid size to the element.
private void RadGridView1_CreateRow(object sender, GridViewCreateRowEventArgs e)
{
if (e.RowInfo is GridViewDetailsRowInfo)
{
e.RowElement = new MyGridDetailViewRowElement();
}
}
public class MyGridDetailViewRowElement : GridDetailViewRowElement
{
protected override SizeF MeasureOverride(SizeF availableSize)
{
var baseSize = base.MeasureOverride(availableSize);
if(baseSize.Width == float.PositiveInfinity)
{
baseSize.Width = 800;
}
return baseSize;
}
}
Steps to reproduce:
1.Run the attached sample project.
2.Group by the ProductID column
3.Select Page 4
4. Expand the top group row. You will notice that the grid jumps to a previous row.

Actual:
Workaround:
public class CustomGrid : RadGridView
{
public override string ThemeClassName
{
get
{
return typeof(RadGridView).FullName;
}
}
protected override void OnMouseDown(MouseEventArgs e)
{
GridExpanderItem expander = this.ElementTree.GetElementAtPoint(e.Location) as GridExpanderItem;
if (expander != null)
{
flag = true;
}
base.OnMouseDown(e);
}
protected override void OnMouseUp(MouseEventArgs e)
{
base.OnMouseUp(e);
flag = false;
}
bool flag = false;
protected override void OnPageChanging(object sender, PageChangingEventArgs e)
{
if (flag)
{
e.Cancel = true;
}
base.OnPageChanging(sender, e);
}
}
Eery time I use the GridView, I have to remember to un-select the last item in the list.
This is almost always to wrong thing to be selected - so why select it by default?
..and the way to swith this 'feaure' off isn't obvious - I always have to look it up....RadGridView1.CurrentRow = Nothing
Please refer to the below gif file. You will notice that the drop row line is shown only when dropping in the same grip but not when dropping on another grid:
Workaround: use the project in the following forum post: https://www.telerik.com/forums/preview-drop---drag-drop-between-gridview#5477699
Use the following code:
public RadForm1()
{
InitializeComponent();
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
dt.Columns.Add("Id");
dt.Columns.Add("Name");
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
dt.Rows.Add(i, "Item" + i);
}
this.radGridView1.DataSource = dt;
this.radGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode = GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill;
this.radGridView1.CellValidating += radGridView1_CellValidating;
}
private void radGridView1_CellValidating(object sender, CellValidatingEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Column.Index == 0 && e.ActiveEditor != null && e.Value + "" == "1")
{
e.Cancel = true;
RadMessageBox.Show("IncorrectValue");
}
}Follow the steps:
1. Scroll to the last row.
2. Enter value "1" in the first cell of the last row
3. Click the area above the scrollbar's thumb to trigger scrolling to the top. You will notice that the message box will be shown and the view will be scrolled. Once the message is closed, the error occurs.
Workaround:
public class CustomGridView : RadGridView
{
public override string ThemeClassName
{
get
{
return typeof(RadGridView).FullName;
}
}
protected override void OnMouseDown(MouseEventArgs e)
{
RadScrollBarElement scrollbar= this.GridViewElement.ElementTree.GetElementAtPoint ( e.Location) as RadScrollBarElement;
if (scrollbar!=null && this.IsInEditMode)
{
this.EditorManager.CloseEditorWhenValidationFails = false;
this.EditorManager.CloseEditor();
return;
}
base.OnMouseDown(e);
}
}
