I am filling a listcontrol (Telerik for WinForms) by using the following code :
public static List<RadListDataItem> GetItems()
{
List<RadListDataItem> items = new List<RadListDataItem>();
for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++)
{
RadListDataItem toadd = new RadListDataItem();
toadd.TextImageRelation = System.Windows.Forms.TextImageRelation.ImageBeforeText;
toadd.Text = "sssssssssss";
//toadd.Image.
string imagename = "MyProject.SuIcons.d" + i + ".JPG";
toadd.Image = new Bitmap(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().
GetManifestResourceStream(imagename));
items.Add(toadd);
}
return items;
}
but, only top portition of every item image is show in listcontrol, I mean I cant see the whole image associated with item in the list.
Would you help me please ?
You should set the AutoSizeItems property of the control to true in order to allow the visual items size themselves according to their content:
radListControl1.AutoSizeItems = true;
You can adjust the item size of the radListView. There is a property ItemSize that you can change in the designer view. Or if you want to do it programmatically, you can do something like this.
radListView1.ItemSize = new System.Drawing.Size(200, 400);
The first parameter is the width and the second is the height.

Derived from Jeff S's methodology found here, I can add a "Checkbox" to a PDF page like so:
PdfPTable tblFirstRow = new PdfPTable(5);
tblFirstRow.SpacingBefore = 4f;
tblFirstRow.HorizontalAlignment = Element.ALIGN_LEFT;
. . . // code where textboxes are added has been elided for brevity
PdfPCell cell204Submitted = new PdfPCell()
{
CellEvent = new DynamicCheckbox("checkbox204Submitted", "204 Submitted or on file")
};
tblFirstRow.AddCell(cell204Submitted);
doc.Add(tblFirstRow);
The DynamicCheckbox class, based on Jeff S's CustomCellLayout class, is:
public class DynamicCheckbox : IPdfPCellEvent
{
private string fieldname;
private string cap;
public DynamicCheckbox(string name, String caption)
{
fieldname = name;
cap = caption;
}
public void CellLayout(PdfPCell cell, Rectangle rectangle, PdfContentByte[] canvases)
{
PdfWriter writer = canvases[0].PdfWriter;
RadioCheckField ckbx = new RadioCheckField(writer, rectangle, fieldname, "Yes");
ckbx.CheckType = RadioCheckField.TYPE_CHECK;
ckbx.Text = cap;
PdfFormField field = ckbx.CheckField;
writer.AddAnnotation(field);
}
}
My problem is that the checkbox's text (the string assigned to ckbx.Text) is not displaying. The checkbox (outsized) occupies the last cell in the table row, but there is no (visible) accompanying text.
What's missing from my code?
Note: I tried to reduce the size of the checkbox by doing this:
Rectangle tangle = new Rectangle(20, 20);
//RadioCheckField ckbx = new RadioCheckField(writer, rectangle, fieldname, "Yes");
RadioCheckField ckbx = new RadioCheckField(writer, tangle, fieldname, "Yes");
...but that attempt failed - with that code, I can't even "find" the checkbox in the generated PDF file - clicking willy-nilly in column 5 conjures up no checkbox...
Others have answered the label part. The Rectangle that you have called "tangle" needs to be calculated off of the rectangle that comes into the event handler, similar to
Rectangle tangle = new Rectangle(
rectangle.Left,
rectangle.Top - PDFStyle.boxsize - 4.5f,
rectangle.Left + PDFStyle.boxsize,
rectangle.Top - 4.5f
);
Where PDFStyle.boxsize is the width/height of the checkbox and 4.5f is the padding the edge of the cell. Basically the rectangle isn't relative to the cell, but absolute to the page.
As described in ISO-32000-1, a check box is a field of type Button. If you define text for a button, you want to define the text that is displayed on the button. However: in the case of a check box, there is no such text! Instead, you have two appearances, one for the Off value and one for the Yes value.
An educated guess made by an attentive reader would be that you don't want to add text (to the button), but that you want to add a label (for a checkbox). Again you should consult ISO-32000-1 and you'll discover that the spec doesn't say anything about labels for check boxes. The concept just doesn't exist at the level of an AcroForm.
This doesn't mean the concept doesn't exist in general. Many PDF tools allow you to define check boxes that are preceded by a label. When you look inside the PDF, you'll discover that this label is just part of the content, whereas the check box is represented by a widget orientation.
Let's take a look at the official documentation instead of frustrating ourselves searching on every place of the web except on the official web site. More specifically: let's take a look at the Buttons example from Chapter 7 of my book. You'll see that one can set text for a real button:
PushbuttonField button = new PushbuttonField(writer, rect, "Buttons");
button.setText("Push me");
This isn't possible with check boxes (for the obvious reason that the appearance of a check box is completely different). If we want to add a label, we can add it for instance like this:
checkbox = new RadioCheckField(writer, rect, LANGUAGES[i], "Yes");
field = checkbox.getCheckField();
field.setAppearance(PdfAnnotation.APPEARANCE_NORMAL, "Off", onOff[0]);
field.setAppearance(PdfAnnotation.APPEARANCE_NORMAL, "Yes", onOff[1]);
writer.addAnnotation(field);
ColumnText.showTextAligned(canvas, Element.ALIGN_LEFT,
new Phrase(LANGUAGES[i], font), 210, 790 - i * 40, 0);
You can find the C# version of these examples here: http://tinyurl.com/itextsharpIIA2C07
Creating a checkbox, and then accompanying text to its right, can be done like this:
PdfPCell cell204Submitted = new PdfPCell()
{
CellEvent = new DynamicCheckbox("checkbox204Submitted")
};
tblFirstRow.AddCell(cell204Submitted);
// . . . Chunks and an anchor created; that code has been elided for brevity
Paragraph parCkbxText = new Paragraph();
parCkbxText.Add(Chunk204SubmittedPreamble);
parCkbxText.Add(ChunkBoldNote);
parCkbxText.Add(Chunk204Midsection);
parCkbxText.Add(anchorPayeeSetup204);
PdfPCell cellCkbxText = new PdfPCell(parCkbxText);
cellCkbxText.BorderWidth = PdfPCell.NO_BORDER;
tblFirstRow.AddCell(cellCkbxText);
public class DynamicCheckbox : IPdfPCellEvent
{
private string fieldname;
public DynamicCheckbox(string name)
{
fieldname = name;
}
public void CellLayout(PdfPCell cell, Rectangle rectangle, PdfContentByte[] canvases)
{
PdfWriter writer = canvases[0].PdfWriter;
RadioCheckField ckbx = new RadioCheckField(writer, rectangle, fieldname, "Yes");
ckbx.CheckType = RadioCheckField.TYPE_CHECK;
ckbx.BackgroundColor = BaseColor.ORANGE;
ckbx.FontSize = 6;
ckbx.TextColor = BaseColor.WHITE;
PdfFormField field = ckbx.CheckField;
writer.AddAnnotation(field);
}
}
I Have a Grid (BrkGrid) in ViewMode... I Add dynamic Check Box (brkChkBox) depending on some logic. A foreach is responsible for adding check boxes to a specific row and column of this grid.. But it takes time while adding check boxes to the BrkGrid.. When I Comment the Add Statement (BrkGrid.Children.Add(brkChkBox)) then the code executes faster.. Any help will be highly appreciated...
CheckBox brkChkBox = null;
foreach (var s in this.ViewData.PlnDtShiftBrksDateList)
{
brkChkBox = new CheckBox
{
DataContext = s,
Tag = s.BreakID,
Width = 20,
VerticalAlignment = VerticalAlignment.Top,
};
Binding chkBoxBinding = new Binding("IsSelected");
chkBoxBinding.Source = s;
chkBoxBinding.Mode = BindingMode.TwoWay;
brkChkBox.SetBinding(CheckBox.IsCheckedProperty, chkBoxBinding);
brkChkBox.Click += brkChkBox_Click;
Grid.SetColumn(brkChkBox, gridColDic.FirstOrDefault(x => x.Key == s.BreakID).Value);
Grid.SetRow(brkChkBox, gridRowDic.FirstOrDefault(x => x.Key.Date == s.Date.Date).Value);
BrkGrid.Children.Add(brkChkBox);
}
I've got my objects in PagedCollectionView bound to DataGrid and DataPager.
var pcView = new PagedCollectionView(ObservableCollection<Message>(messages));
How can I easily get items from current page in PagedCollectionView from my ViewModel? I wish there were something like this:
var messagesFromCurrentPage = pcView.CurrentPageItems; // error: no such a property
There are properties like SourceCollection, PageIndex and Count but I don't find them useful in this case. What am I missing here?
If you want to get select items you can just use Linq to do it.
var items = pcView.Where(i => i.SomeCondition == true);
Make sure you add a using statement for System.Linq.
Edit: Whenever I have a question as to what is really going on I just look at the code using Reflector (or ILSpy). In this case here is the relevant code inside GetEnumerator() which is how the Select or Where gets the items in the list:
List<object> list = new List<object>();
if (this.PageIndex < 0)
{
return list.GetEnumerator();
}
for (int i = this._pageSize * this.PageIndex; i < Math.Min(this._pageSize * (this.PageIndex + 1), this.InternalList.Count); i++)
{
list.Add(this.InternalList[i]);
}
return new NewItemAwareEnumerator(this, list.GetEnumerator(), this.CurrentAddItem);
So you can see how it is returning only the items in the current page from this code.
This article shows how to implement a copy operation on a drop event. I'd like to do the same but I want my dropped item to appear in the collection according to where it was placed on the UI. So I need the StartIndex much like on a NotifyCollectionChangedEventArgs when an ObservableCollection changes. In the article you'll see that eventually you get a SelectionCollection object whose items have an Index property. But unfortunately this is the index of the source collection (where it was picked) and not the destination collection (where it was dropped).
Ok, this is quite ugly, but I didn't find another way, not by myself and also not by searching the net for answers. Must have been another deadline at Microsoft that prevented the rather obvious functionality to be included...
Basically the method below does everything manually, getting the drop location and checking it for listbox items to use as index references.
private void ListBoxDragDropTarget_Drop(object sender, Microsoft.Windows.DragEventArgs e)
{
// only valid for copying
if (e.Effects.HasFlag(DragDropEffects.Copy))
{
SelectionCollection selections = ((ItemDragEventArgs)e.Data.GetData("System.Windows.Controls.ItemDragEventArgs")).Data as SelectionCollection;
int? index = null;
if (selections != null)
{
Point p1 = e.GetPosition(this.LayoutRoot); // get drop position relative to layout root
var elements = VisualTreeHelper.FindElementsInHostCoordinates(p1, this.LayoutRoot); // get ui elements at drop location
foreach (var dataItem in this.lbxConfiguration.Items) // iteration over data items
{
// get listbox item from data item
ListBoxItem lbxItem = this.lbxConfiguration.ItemContainerGenerator.ContainerFromItem(dataItem) as ListBoxItem;
// find listbox item that contains drop location
if (elements.Contains(lbxItem))
{
Point p2 = e.GetPosition(lbxItem); // get drop position relative to listbox item
index = this.lbxConfiguration.Items.IndexOf(dataItem); // new item will be inserted immediately before listbox item
if (p2.Y > lbxItem.ActualHeight / 2)
index += 1; // new item will be inserted after listbox item (drop location was in bottom half of listbox item)
break;
}
}
if (index != null)
{
foreach (var selection in selections)
{
// adding a new item to the listbox - adjust this to your model
(lbxConfiguration.ItemsSource as IList<ViewItem>).Insert((int)index, (selection.Item as ViewItem).Clone());
}
}
}
}
}
I am generating a set images to form a human body so that I can use for a physics engine.
The images generated are in a specific user control in where I set the dimentions and co-ordinates of each image. That usercontrol is then loaded in another user control but for some reason when the images are loaded, one specific image which I named (rightBicep) is shifting to the right. Here is a screenshot :
alt text http://img193.imageshack.us/img193/592/imageshift.jpg
I illustrated the positions of the images with dotted lines, the green dotted line is refering to where the image should be located, and the red dotted line is where the image is being shown.
The weird thing is the image beneath it (called rightForearm) take's it's LeftPosition from it, and when during debugging they have the exact same leftProperty value. Here's the syntax :
public void generateRightBicep(string imageUrl)
{
rightBicep = new Image();
rightBicep.Name = CharacterName + "rightbicep";
Uri imageUri = new Uri(imageUrl, UriKind.Relative);
LayoutRoot.Children.Add(rightBicep);
rightBicep.Source = new BitmapImage(imageUri);
rightBicep.ImageOpened += new EventHandler<RoutedEventArgs>(bodyPart_ImageOpened);
}
public void rightBicepLoaded()
{
var bi = waitTillImageLoad(rightBicep.Name);
rightBicep.Height = elbowToArmpit + (2 * palm);
rightBicep.Width = ratio(bi.PixelHeight, bi.PixelHeight, rightBicep.Height); // to be determined
Vector2 topVector;
topVector.X = (float)(Convert.ToDouble(torso.GetValue(Canvas.LeftProperty)) - palm);
topVector.Y = (float)(Convert.ToDouble(neck.GetValue(Canvas.TopProperty)) + neck.Height);
if (!faceRight)
{
perspectiveVectorHeight(ref topVector, ref rightBicep, torso.Width);
rightBicep.Width = ratio(bi.PixelHeight, bi.PixelHeight, rightBicep.Height);
}
rightBicep.SetValue(Canvas.LeftProperty, Convert.ToDouble(topVector.X));
rightBicep.SetValue(Canvas.TopProperty, Convert.ToDouble(topVector.Y));
rightBicep.SetValue(Canvas.ZIndexProperty, rightBicepZindex);
generateRightShoulder();
}
public void generateRightForearm(string imageUrl)
{
rightForearm = new Image();
rightForearm.Name = CharacterName + "rightforearm";
Uri imageUri = new Uri(imageUrl, UriKind.Relative);
LayoutRoot.Children.Add(rightForearm);
rightForearm.Source = new BitmapImage(imageUri);
rightForearm.ImageOpened += new EventHandler<RoutedEventArgs>(bodyPart_ImageOpened);
}
public void rightForearmLoaded()
{
var bi = waitTillImageLoad(rightForearm.Name);
rightForearm.Height = (elbowToHandTip - handLength) + palm;
rightForearm.Width = ratio(bi.PixelHeight, bi.PixelWidth, rightForearm.Height);
Vector2 topVector;
if (faceRight)
{
topVector.X = (float)(Convert.ToDouble(rightBicep.GetValue(Canvas.LeftProperty)));
topVector.Y = (float)(Convert.ToDouble(rightBicep.GetValue(Canvas.TopProperty)) + rightBicep.Height - palm);
}
else
{
topVector.X = (float)(Convert.ToDouble(leftBicep.GetValue(Canvas.LeftProperty)));
topVector.Y = (float)(Convert.ToDouble(leftBicep.GetValue(Canvas.TopProperty)) + leftBicep.Height - palm);
perspectiveVectorHeight(ref topVector, ref rightForearm, torso.Width);
rightForearm.Width = ratio(bi.PixelHeight, bi.PixelWidth, rightForearm.Height);
}
rightForearm.SetValue(Canvas.LeftProperty, Convert.ToDouble(topVector.X));
rightForearm.SetValue(Canvas.TopProperty, Convert.ToDouble(topVector.Y));
rightForearm.SetValue(Canvas.ZIndexProperty, rightForearmZIndex);
generateRightElbow();
}
Now all the values I am adding together are a group of doubles I preset, and the property faceRight is to dertmine if the human body is facing right or left to determine where the positions of the body parts (since if the right hand looks on the left hand side when the human body turns the other way).
If you notice the rightforearm is taking the leftproperty of the rightbicep, so technically it should display direcrly underneath which it isn't. I also debugged the user control and both have the left property of -3.
PS. I call the methods rightbicepLoaded and rightforearmLoaded when an event is called when all the imageOpened events all have been triggered.
Any ideas on why this is happening?
Found out why , in my method ratio it should take hieght and width, and I put and i put 2 hieghts instead
