In a DevExpress Report, I need to show negative numbers with the minus sign on the right rather than left in Table Cells.
Does anyone know how to do this?
I have searched the DevExpress forum and userguide, but cannot see anything useful. There is also nothing in the Table Cell's Properties.
Currently I am using the following 'Format String':
{0:#,#.00}
According to this article just try this format:
{0:#,#.00;#,#.00-}

I have in my application a larger textbox and offer user the possibility to enter text on several rows like this:
first piece of text
second piece of text
and so on...
Each row is a distinct piece of data that has a significance. The thing is I would like to use ajax auto complete extender functionality after the user types a certain character on a row, such as #, and filter the records in the database according to the first letter the user typed after #, moment when the auto complete suggestion list would appear. For example, third piece of text #Action1, means that after the user typed A he would be prompted with a list of values to choose from.
There are several items of concern for me: first, it is possible to use autocomplete extender only for part of the text in the textbox, and second does it work like this for multiple rows (i.e. one time - in each line behaviour)? Regarding its position, I guess I have no other choice than at the bottom of the textbox it refers to, despite I would have liked it to appear below the # symbol.
Thank you very much.
Update: I found something similar to what I am looking for here: Twitter-style autocomplete in textarea, but the author only explained briefly his solution. Any help much appreciated, thx!
Each row is a distinct piece of data that has a significance.
Why are you using a textarea then, and not multiple <input> fields?
Sounds to me like your error in UI design lies right there already, so the rest of my answer is rather theoretical; I probably won’t go into more details as the sensible fix for your problem is the one above.
first, it is possible to use autocomplete extender only for part of the text in the textbox,
Why shouldn’t it be? Cursor position in a textarea for example is readable (although it requires some working around cross-browser issues).
and second does it work like this for multiple rows (i.e. one time - in each line behaviour)?
So long as the line breaks are “hard” ones (made by the user themselves, using enter/return), splitting the actual textarea content by "\n" to have each row as a single value is no problem.
Regarding its position, I guess I have no other choice than at the bottom of the textbox it refers to, despite I would have liked it to appear below the # symbol.
You could try to roughly measure the #’s position, by line and col number it is on, and match that to the character width and line height, when using a monospace font. For other fonts, some more “magic” might be required to measure the actual width of the previous text before the # character.
I have created a Meteor package for this, which allows both free text and multiple autocomplete sources. Meteor's data model allows for fast multi-rule searching with custom rendered lists. If you're not using Meteor for your web app, (I believe) you unfortunately won't find anything this awesome for autocompletion.

See the link for pictures of how it works. Fork, pull, and improve!
I am trying to sort a spark datagrid column when users click the header of individual column. I have searched google but haven't found any good tutorials. I would appreciate if anyone here can help me out. Thanks a lot.
Did you set sortableColumns to true? Cause actually it should work right out of the box if that property is set.
I have spent a while searching google for an answer to the following question, with no luck.
Does anyone know if there is any way (at all) to use the Design view to edit the contents of an ASP.NET table control (an <asp:Table runat="server">...)?
From all that I can tell, devs are stuck coding their <asp:TableRow>s and <asp:TableCell>s by hand! This is ludicrous, given that you can use the design view as a WYSIWYG editor for standard HTML tables.
In design view go to the properties of your table and select rows and click the button. You can add rows there. Likewise the row properties has a cells property that lets you add cells one at a time.
Still pretty bad but it would cut down on the hand typing.
There is a Rows property you can play with in the design view.
As you add rows to the Rows collection, you have access to the Cell property as well through the dialog presented to you.
I need to implement a grid in asp.net that behaves almost exactly like MS Excel.
- can navigate around with arrow keys
- you can edit the cell that currently has focus by simply typing
- supports checkboxes, dropdownlists, etc
One crucial requirement is....I need to be able to somehow, after update of any cell within a row, pass that updated value back to the server, as there is a calculation process that happens using that updated value that can update other cells in the row, and I need to essentially rebind all the cells in the current row with the updated values resulting from the calculation. AND...when I do this, I want to retain focus on the cell that had it after the update of the former cell. Without grid scrolling, etc, etc.
If you're wondering what I'm talking about, just imagine Microsoft Excel, but I need to perform the formula calculations on the server and refresh all cells in the current row with the results....and, not lose focus of my current cell.
I am more than happy to pay $1000 or whatever it is for one of the full blown commercial ASP.Net grid controls, but from the ones I have tried so far, they seem to not be capable of this, at least I don't know how.
Aspose Grid - would have worked great, except it is totally full of bugs
Telerik RadGrid - a colleague familiar with that grid is trying to figure it out with no luck
Farpoint Grid - looks promising but haven't tried it out yet
If anyone has any advice on how to specifically accomplish this, it would be much appreciated.
Have you tried the extjs sample?
It has a commercial licence, but you can try it for free.
I managed to find an example about Excel-like RadGrid by Telerik - if you are interested in it, you can see it here. And good luck with your implementation.
Did you look into using jQuery for this? Look into jQuery templates and ajax.
