Help file completely lacking

I've just downloaded the 500MB help file to find that it is largely auto generated and contains no information behond the bleeding obvious. For example, a few properties chosen completely at random

FirstDayOfWeek
Identifies the FirstDayOfWeek dependency property.

AllowDelete
Gets or sets a value indicating whether [allow delete].

AllowEdit
Gets or sets a value indicating whether [allow edit].

Does anyone else find this to be a bit of a concern?

Hi Michael,


Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Currently we are updating our documentations, Also it will contain all the major things that are needed by our customers in our upcoming Volume releases.


Thanks,
Ganesan

I have to agree with Michael. Real life examples would DEFINITELY be a plus, while you're at it.

"I have to agree with Michael. Real life examples would DEFINITELY be a plus, while you're at it."

They do have quite a lot of sample which should get installed on your machine by default. These are definately helpful but if they don't contain the functionality you need then you're pretty much left in the dark.

Hi Ganesan, what sort of timeframe is it for that release? Will this include documentation for all properties that are defined by syncfusion? Currently I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to proceed with using the grid when it has no help file.

As an axample, I am currently trying to work out how to show a right click menu for the grid. The samples show how to show a contenxt menu but it is a built in context menu of some sort. The help file doesn't explain anything about doing a hittest.
