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 ;) 

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.

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.

It would be great if there were a right-click menu option for custom Rad controls to "apply the theme to all sub-controls", similar to how Forms work.

I've attached images to illustrate the functionality.

Right now it only works for forms, and my custom controls have to be manually adjusted one at a time, by hand, which is time consuming and error prone.

It would save a lot of time and reduce the chance of missing a control when applying themes locally.

Right now the only way to apply themes is either globally or individually by hand, or with a find-replace-in-files command on the ThemeName property.

Hello,

Our product uses Infragistics controls. We have been in business for 21 years and since then we have been using Infragistics controls for WinForms. We would like to move to Telerik controls for WinForms, even though we already use Telerik controls for Blazor. Is there an easy way to convert them? Is there any plan to release a tool to convert them automatically? It will be very helpful and I am sure many companies are interested as well.   

Thank you

Hi Support,

why does PropertyStoreItem has no property "Tag" as other classes?

I had a few scenarios, where I need to store additional informations at the PropertyStoreItem.

Best regards

I'd like to have the merge columns mode, for example like TrueDBGrid (desing time)

It's fantastic, and there is the vertical alignment

I've tried all yours codes to emulate it but it's too slow if radgridview has a lot of rows.

Thanks

Pasting a Network path in the breadcrumb navigates the user to the respective location. However, the UNC path is displayed as expected. Please refer to the attached gif files.

Our clients can download different product files from their Telerik account:

https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/installation-and-upgrades/download-product-files 

Currently, when Digitally Signed Assemblies are necessary, they submit support tickets and the support engineers provide the signed assemblies. It would be nice to be directly uploaded to the Telerik account like the rest of the product files.

Presently none of the controls can be navigated to using the TAB key or the shift TAB combination.

For example, in this picture I would like to be able to go from the Verdana font to the size 12 font using TAB key controls. I would like to be able to do this for all controls within the editor. I have asked support and presently this wouldn't be possible.

To be accessible and compliant with our organizations standards, the search bar that can be enabled in the gridview should be accessible by pressing TAB and shift TAB. Right now the only way to select the search by keyboard is pressing Control F, but the up/down arrows and the search settings cog wheel cannot be accessed via the keyboard.

As of right now, the user cannot also select the column headers using the keyboard, which in turn means you cannot sort by a column with a keyboard.

Background: With many people having moved to working remotely, collaboration is a much larger part of any enterprise applications. As such, it would be highly beneficial to add real time collaboration capabilities to editor controls, more specifically the RadRichTextEditor control. It would work similarly to how MS Word works when more than one user is editing a document at the same time.

Scenario: Assume you have and WinForms application where there is a form that contains a RadRichTextEditor. The content for this control is populated from a centralized database. This content is editable by users of the application. Lets say that you have two users (User A and User B) editing this content at the same time. Currently, User A cannot see what User B is doing in real-time, and vice-versa. Each time one of the users saves the content, it will overwrite any changes made by the other user.

Desired outcome: If the users in the above scenario are using MS Word, each user would see that someone else is currently editing the document and the other user's changes would be displayed in real-time. This same outcome should be made more readily available with the Telerik editors, primarily the RadRichTextEditor, so that when two users are editing the same content, they would see each others' changes in real-time.

I know this is possible using SignalR and a bit of code, but I think it would be beneficial for the RadRichTextEditor to have better "out of the box" support for this feature.

I am aware of a web-based control that has this feature. Specifically, the CKEditor (https://ckeditor.com/) control has the features I am requesting. However, I am looking at WinForms as opposed to web.

RadVirtualGrid is created to support a million records or more. Still it contains some "heavy" operations like CopySelection/CutSelection/Paste which can take a long time.

I would like to intercept these methods so I can show a "Please wait"-window during the operation. Furthermore I have the need to set a flag to true when such a operation is executing.
