If you want to use Conditional Formatting via code (expression based formatting) you will see that it throws an exception if you set TRIM() condition.

ExpressionFormattingObject expressionCondition = new ExpressionFormattingObject(
expressionCondition.Expression = "TRIM(ContactName) = 'Maria Anders'";
expressionCondition.CellBackColor = Color.Aqua;
this.radGridView1.Columns["CustomerID"].ConditionalFormattingObjectList.Add(expressionCondition);

There is no exception if you use the same condition via "Conditional Formatting Rules Manager" form.

Please refer to the attached gif file. You will notice that for the GridViewMaskBoxColumn  with numeric mask the filtering doesn't work. For the other columns each key stroke filters the grid rows.

Workaround: either use a GridViewDecimalColumn or change the default editor for the GridViewMaskBoxColumn :

Using a custom control using the Telerik Presentation Framework, I am receiving a NullException inside the GridCheckBoxHeaderCellElement during the GridViewElement's data load.

The custom control construction follows an example I found somewhere (reference is lost to me at this point):

ControlContainingGridView inherits from RadControl

CreateChildItems creates and adds ControlContainingGridViewElement

During Form load, I programmatically add columns and provide a binding source

private List<SampleModel> sampleModels = new List<SampleModel>();
        private BindingSource sampleModelsBinding = new BindingSource();

        private void RadForm1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {

            sampleModels.Add(new SampleModel() {
                When = DateTime.Parse("1980-04-23"),
                SomeText = "Purple Bananas",
                IsTrue = true
            });
            sampleModels.Add(new SampleModel() {
                When = DateTime.Parse("2002-07-20"),
                SomeText = "Ball & Chain",
                IsTrue = false
            });
            sampleModelsBinding.DataSource = sampleModels;

            controlContainingGridView.SetupColumns((grid) => {
                grid.AddDateTimeColumn(nameof(SampleModel.When), "When");
                grid.AddTextBoxColumn(nameof(SampleModel.SomeText), "Some Text");
                grid.AddCheckBoxColumn(nameof(SampleModel.IsTrue), "Is True");
            });

            controlContainingGridView.DataSource = sampleModelsBinding;

        }

Inclusion of the CheckBox column results in the following error:

It seems that the GridViewColumnGroup.MinHeight has a big influence on the height of the filter cell.

Workaround:

this.radGridView1.AutoSizeRows = true;

RadGridView can not change the current column (by using the IsCurrent of the desired column) in the CurrentColumnChanged event.

Dear Telerik Support Team,

I have a Grid with one level of Hierarchy, I am using also the search row control of Gridview but this control only searches the data in the Parent Grid and not in the child Grid, I am using the version: v.2019.2.618.20 of Telerik controls in the Project. Below is the code snippet which is used in the Project, please let us know how we can search in child grid using the search row of the Gridview.

Please refer to the following code snippet demonstrating how the comparer can be applied:

        public RadForm1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            this.radGridView1.EnableFiltering = true;
            this.radGridView1.ShowHeaderCellButtons = true;
            this.radGridView1.FilterPopupInitialized += radGridView1_FilterPopupInitialized; 
        }

        private void radGridView1_FilterPopupRequired(object sender, FilterPopupRequiredEventArgs e)
        {
            RadListFilterPopup popup = e.FilterPopup as RadListFilterPopup;
            if (popup != null)
            { 
                popup.MenuTreeElement.TreeView.TreeViewElement.Comparer = new MyComparer(popup.MenuTreeElement.TreeView.TreeViewElement);
            }
        }

        class MyComparer : TreeNodeComparer
        {
            public MyComparer(RadTreeViewElement treeView)
                : base(treeView)
            {
            }
            public override int Compare(RadTreeNode x, RadTreeNode y)
            {
                if (this.TreeViewElement.SortOrder == SortOrder.Descending)
                {
                    return x.Text.CompareTo(y.Text);
                }
                return x.Text.CompareTo(y.Text) * -1;
            }
        }

When pressing Enter or Tab in the new row the ParsingDateTime event is fired after the editor is validated. Use attached to reproduce.

We have upgraded from WinControl UI 2010 to 2019 R2. 

we have a lot of non-data bound radgridview that we process our data and add each row manually.

The radgridView.Rows.Add(rowdatacolumn1, rowdatacolumn2, rowdatacolumn3) used to return the row index of the added row. It is now returning -1 . 

This is breaking a lot of our code. 

I am currently working in Telerik v2019.3.917 and .Net 4.5.2. I have multiple theme's setup for a local application for my users but I am seeing something odd with the Telerik.WinControls.Themes.HighContrastBlack theme. It appears that I am unable to select more than one cell in this theme. My grid has multiselect as true and SelectionMode as CellSelect. I have tried holding ctrl and clicking cells, clicking the row header, holding the mouse down and dragging, and using Ctrl+A but none of these select more than one cell.

I am setting the application theme on launch:

Themes that work: All Fluents, All Material, All VS.

Is this a bug or am I missing something?

Hi,

Following to the workaroud (flag IsSearchAsync) provided (https://feedback.telerik.com/Project/154/Feedback/Details/245938-fix-radgridview-having-groups-filters-sort-descriptors-and-search-query-in-t), we discovered two issues :

1) the behavior of the grid is changed while using IsSearchAsync as true or false (see 2018-08-01_1849_DragDrop_behavior_with_IsSearchAsync.swf video attached). When set to true, the line found by the searchbox is automatically reselected. When the flag is set to false, it's not the case.

2) while playing with drag&drop, after some time the grid became unstable (see 2018-08-01_1847_-_dragdrop_issue_with_IsAsyncSearch.swf video attached). You can see that at the beginning, the D&D works fine. At 0:20 I can't select any line, and when I try to D&D, it drops always the same customer. At 0:40 you can see that even the SearchBox is broken and the progressbar is looping forever

Use attached to reproduce.

Workaround:
Set the TableHeaderHeight again after loading the layout. 

To reproduce: please refer to the attached sample project and gif file

Workaround:

            GridViewSpreadExport spreadExporter = new GridViewSpreadExport(this.radGridView1);
            spreadExporter.ExportFormat = SpreadExportFormat.Pdf;
            spreadExporter.ExportVisualSettings = true;
            SpreadExportRenderer exportRenderer = new SpreadExportRenderer();
