Hi , I'm trying to automate the testing of a WPF program by writing code. I can perform actions on the main window of the program, but I can't do it on a different window. I think the reason for this is that it doesn't recognize that window. However, I couldn't find out how to switch to a different window.Can you help me ?. Here's an example of the code I've written:
[CodedStep(@"Type 'XXX' into ServerNameWatermarkTextbox")]
public void ConfirmInstalledDate_CodedStep()
{
string formattedDate = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd");
ActiveApplication.MainWindow.Find.ByName("serverNameWatermark").User.TypeText("XXX",2);
ActiveApplication.MainWindow.Find.ByName("usernameWaterMark").User.TypeText("logadmin",2);
ActiveApplication.MainWindow.Find.ByName("usernameWaterMark").KeyPress(ArtOfTest.WebAii.Win32.KeyBoard.KeysFromString("Tab"),1,1,1);
ActiveApplication.MainWindow.Find.ByName("pwdBox").User.TypeText("XXX",2);
ActiveApplication.MainWindow.Find.ByName<Button>("btnSignIn").User.Click();
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000);
ActiveApplication.MainWindow.Find.ByName("imgData").User.Click();
ActiveApplication.MainWindow.Find.ByTextContent("Status").User.Click(MouseClickType.RightClick);
ActiveApplication.MainWindow.Find.ByTextContent("Select columns").User.Click();
ActiveApplication.GetWindow("Select columns");
ActiveApplication.GetWindow("Select columns").Find.ByName("txtSearch").User.TypeText("Date",2);
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000);
ActiveApplication.GetWindow("Select columns").Find.ByName("txtSearch").User.KeyPress(System.Windows.Forms.Keys.Enter,1);
ActiveApplication.MainWindow.Find.ByTextContent("^"+formattedDate).User.Click();
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(2000);
}
}

Prevent NumericUpDown from activating the edit box when I hit +/-

I have a simple NumericUpDown control showing milliseconds. I use a 'ms' custom unit to show alongside the number.

<tk:RadNumericUpDown  Width="150"  Height="50"
    Value="{Binding Exposure}"
    IsInteger="True"
    CustomUnit="ms"/>

It looks good but as soon as hit the + or - key, the 'ms' disappears and I have just a number. This is because hitting +/- gives keyboard focus to the edit box -- activates the cursor in there and all that. Once I click somewhere else focus leaves the edit box, the 'ms' re-appears.

Is there a property or some simple way that would let me prevent this behavior? I want +/- to just change the number without grabbing the keyboard focus.

Note that I do still want the number to be user-editable if they actually go to the trouble of clicking directly in the edit box itself. I just want to stop +/- from doing that for me.

ChartView GC

ChartView experiences frequent garbage collection in TrackInfoUpdated after Tooltip of any control is activated.

private void Grid_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
if (sender is Grid grid)
{
grid.DataContext = this;
ObservableCollection<SeriesKLineModel> ChartKLine = new ObservableCollection<SeriesKLineModel>();
Random random = new Random();
for (int i = 0; i < 5000; i++)
{
SeriesKLineModel mode = new SeriesKLineModel(DateTime.Now.AddDays(i), random.Next(10, 20), 5, -5, 0, Color.FromRgb(33, 141, 252));
mode.Seq = mode.Seq.AddHours((-1) * i);
ChartKLine.Add(mode);
}
this.DLineSeries.ItemsSource = ChartKLine;
this.DTextBlock.SetBinding(TextBlock.TextProperty, new Binding(nameof(TestText)));
}
}
private string _TestText = "";
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
public string TestText
{
get
{
return _TestText;
}
set
{
_TestText = value;
this.PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(nameof(TestText)));
}
}

private void ChartTrackBallBehavior_TrackInfoUpdated(object sender, Telerik.Windows.Controls.ChartView.TrackBallInfoEventArgs e)
{
DataPointInfo pointInfo = e.Context?.ClosestDataPoint;
if (pointInfo != null && pointInfo.DataPoint.DataItem is SeriesKLineModel data)
{
string str = data.Seq.ToLongDateString();
Task.Run(() =>
{
this.TestText = str;
});
}
}

Scheduling intersecting appointments within a one-minute time frame in a WPF ScheduleView's appointment cell.

The Telerik WPF ScheduleView's appointment cells have a problem with intersecting times when assigning schedules within a one-minute timeframe. For example, when I drag and drop to assign a schedule like 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM, and then another schedule from 1:30 PM - 2:30 PM, sometimes it displays two cells in one column (as shown in the right corner), while other times it functions correctly (as shown in the left corner).

I must emphasize that this is a bug in the user interface. Is there a way you can address and fix this issue? Thank you!

Extracting Default Styles

I have found this documentation online in order to extract and modify the default template style for telerik controls.

https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/wpf/controls/radrichtextbox/styles-and-templates/styling-radrichtextbox#:~:text=To%20copy%20the%20default%20style%2C%20load%20your%20project%20in%20Expression,Style%20%2D%3E%20Edit%20a%20Copy.

I've done this many times on standard WPF controls so I am familiar with the process. When I open project, I get the below options. There is no option to edit style and edit a copy.

Object -> Edit Style -> Edit a Copy.

GridViewCkecbox style

Hi

In the image attached there are two columns of a radgridview, defined as follow:

<t:GridViewDataColumn										
				Header="{DynamicResource ResourceKey={x:Static r:ResourcesKeys.SelectedColumnHeader }}"
				DataMemberBinding="{Binding IsSelected, Mode=TwoWay
								, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}">
				<t:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>
								<DataTemplate>
									<CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding IsSelected, Mode=TwoWay
										, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" />
								</DataTemplate>
				</t:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>
</t:GridViewDataColumn>
<t:GridViewCheckBoxColumn
				AutoSelectOnEdit="True"
				Header="{DynamicResource ResourceKey={x:Static r:ResourcesKeys.SelectedColumnHeader }}"
				DataMemberBinding="{Binding IsSelected, Mode=TwoWay
				, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}"/>

As you can see the 2 checkbox have different style: is possible to get the first one with the style of second one?

I need to use the first way, because I need to reflect the checking immediately, while the GridViewCheckBoxColumn seems to works only on lost focus.

Thank you
Luigi
