If the TasksSource is cleared in the TaskEdited event of the control the event is called in a loop. Available in LIB version 2016.2.530, it will be also available in the 2016 R2 SP1.
If a task is partially visible in the Timeline area, it should be bring into view when is selected by default.
The user should be able to create and add footer rows in RadGanttView in order to be able to summaries the data of the column above.
If the following steps are performed: - Hold the Ctrl keyboard key - Highlight a task by clicking it with the mouse - Highlight a second task - Release the Ctrl key - Click the first task again Cause the second highlighted task to still be highlighted.
When removing Tasks that are not visible (the parent task is collapsed) an ArgumentOutOfRangeException is thrown.
When scaling RadGanttView control in order to print the visible area in one page width only, extra empty pages are generated.
As a user of the control I want to be able to highlight grid and timeline rows in different colors, depending on the data inside the task so that the user can easily see tasks with special properties.
Available in LIB version 2016.3.1017, it will be also available in the 2016 R3 SP1 release.
Allow the users of the control to specify different types of calendars for the tasks, the resources and the timeline of the GanttView like in MSProject.
I have combined these two requests in a single ticket as I feel that they are closely linked, and the second does not make much sense without the first.
Stretch option for Gantt task visualisation
It would be very useful if the user could specify a 'stretch' option for the horizontal width of the Gantt which causes the task visualisation to fill all of the available space (by increasing the PixelLength). The Gantt chart looks very strange when a fixed PixelLength results in a large amount of empty space, particularly as most other containers can be resized. It can also be difficult to guarantee that the Gantt chart fills all available space when it is inside a resizable component.
Ability to move resize control when both sides are at their 'desired width'
Currently, the resize control which separates the column data on the left from the visualisation of the gantt tasks on the right cannot be moved when both sides have reached their 'desired width'. However, this is not intuitive as other types of Telerik controls (notably the GridView) allow the width of components to be increased or decreased by clicking and dragging left/right, even if an absolute width has been set in the XAML.
Anticipated behaviour:
I recognise that these features may not be desirable for all users, so it would be helpful if these were features that could be toggled on/off.
Add functionality to sort the data in RadGanttView similar to the sorting feature of RadGridView.
Currently, you can use the approach shown in the GridSorting SDK example.
By design, RadGanttView supports only one task per row. We could provide a way to allow several tasks on a single row. A possible workaround is demonstrated in the SameRowRecurringTask SDK example in our GitHub repository. This project demonstrates how to implement a 'recurring' Task on the same row.
The issue is only reproduced if the InitialExpandBehavior is set to Collapsed. Available in LIB version 2016.3.1017, it will be also available in the 2016 R3 SP1 release.
We need to activate an editing mode in a GanttView left grid cell after a new GanttTask added. But neither RadGanttView, nor GanttItemsPresenter, nor CellContainer, etc. have some BeginEdit method. According to the documentation seems to be no way to initiate editing from code that's is a thing we need.
Add ability to customize the event that triggers the editing in the GanttView like the EditTrigger property of the GridView. Currently an InlinedEdit command added to the GanttView control. This item is also related to this PITS item.
