RadPane - Trigger pane to open from code

[MattC2007]

Is it possible to trigger the rad pane to open from code? If so could someone please provide an example. I would like to have a UIElement's onclick event trigger my bottom docked radpane to open.

Thanks

Hi,

Thank you for your interest in our products.
It is possible to trigger the rad pane to open from code. You can create a new pane and add it to the group, or you can show a hidden one. Attached is a project which illustrates both approaches.
If you have further question please feel free to ask.


Best wishes,

Although your attached project works perfectly. I cant seem to duplicate it within my own project. I have used the same code behind to trigger the radpanes focus property without success.

I have attached my xaml code in hopes that I'm over looking something?

Hello,

Could you please share with us which is the version of your controls? If you are using the ones from Q3 2009 SP1, please open a support ticket and send us a running project , which we can test here locally, because after that release this feature is supported and there should be no problem.
Looking forward for your reply.


Kind regards,
