I posted this in the wrong forum, which is probably why no one replied LOL. So I am trying again here, where it should have gone in the first place.
I want to be able to show/hide the panel of minimized tiles when I maximize a single tile so that I can give as much room as possible to the active tile. I find that the splitter control will only allow you to slide down to the width of a single column of tiles. Is there a way to make the splitter pull all the way to the right? Or a "hide/show" example for hiding/showing the tile panel? And please don't tell me to see the code for the Ignite UI menu sample. It is so full of extraneous stuff that I cannot make heads nor tails of how it works. A simplified ASP.MVC 4 Razor example would be great.
The only workaround I have found is this:
@(Html.Infragistics()
.TileManager()
.ID("dashboard")
.MinimizedState(".minimized")
.MaximizedState(".maximized")
.RightPanelTilesWidth("0px")
.Render()
)
For some reason, adding the RightPanelTilesWidth() property with some "px" value causes the minimized tiles to disappear until you click the minimize icon in the maximized window. It isn't ideal but it works. I would still prefer to be able to resize it or have a button or something to control this behavior.
Thanks,
Carl
Hello Carl,
Changing the width of the right panel is only possible when initializing the tile manager, therefore in this scenario toggling the right panel's visibility would require re-instantiating the widget. I am attaching an HTML sample illustrating how this can be achieved and will be working on illustrating the same scenario in MVC. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any updates or questions in the meantime.
Thank you for your patience. I am attaching a sample demonstrating how the scenario may be implemented in MVC. In the process of implementing this I noticed an issue with the tile manager wrapper which affects the ability to set the right panel width and height through the wrapper and have logged it for further investigation by our engineers. The id of the work item is 170433. The next step would be for a developer to review my findings and offer a fix or other resolution.
Your case regarding this issue is CAS-135009-F7T1B1. I will leave this case open and update you with any new information after the review. You can also continue to send updates to this case at any time.
You can view the status of the development issue connected to this case by selecting the "Development Issues" tab when viewing this case on the web site.
Please let me know if you need more information.
Thank you so much, Peter. I'll keep following it.
Hi Carl,
I just want to update you that the service release that fix this issue (170433) is ready and you can download it form the My keys and download section under the Service release Tab.
Please let us know if you still experience any issues.
It seems the sample wasn't attached with my last post. Reattaching again.
