How To: Activate Upload on Image/Flash/Media/Doc Managers...
In the RAD Editor when creating or updating an Issue, how do you "activate" the ability to use the Upload feature of the "Managers"? As it stands right now, when I click on any of the Managers, the Upload Tab is greyed out and inaccessable.
Help. :-)

Wait for release 2.0.3 that will have this stuff enabled by default. Alternatively, create a bunch of folders and then point to them by editing the RichTextCtrl.ascx file -- you set properties in this file that will point to the newly created folders. See the RAD admin manual that ships with Gemini. |

Do you have further info on this? All info available there are: You can allow end-users to upload images in the folder structure of the web-application by setting the UploadImagesPaths property. For example, to enable users to upload images in the "./Img" folder and all of its subfolders, you need to set that property as follows: UploadImagesPaths="~/Img" |

This is done for 2.0.3 release. http://www.countersoft.com/downloads/beta/Geminiv203beta3.zip Test the beta out. |

Hiya I'm currently using version 2.0.3 and the thumbnail option is still greyed out. I've read the RAD manual which says that with version 5 this option should be enabled. I'd be grateful if you could please advise what the current position is and as to whether or not we need to amend the above mentioned file manually. Many thanks Vix |

You need to change the file RichTextCtrl.ascx (under the issue direcotry of the Gemini web app) and add the following to the radEditor tag: AllowThumbGeneration="True" Sorry for the VERY late reply!
Below is the full new declaration., which will enable all image, doc, media and flash uploads providing you give permissions to the folders: <radE:RadEditor id="RadEditor1" Runat="server" ToolsFile="~/RadControls/ToolsFile.xml" Scheme="Office2000" |

May I suggest you put this in the code for future downloads/releases? |

Hi, Sorry to bring this old topic up again, but i am having a minor issue with the latest version. I have just upgraded from version 2 to version 3. but now my image manager will not allow me to upload.. everything is actually disabled. Also, the default directory is in the CommonTemplates directory.. Is there a way to change this? i cannot find the UploadImagesPaths property anywhere? Could the first issue be because our registration of Gemini has just expired 2 weeks ago? Thanks for your help in advance. Cheers, Craig |

Hi, Sorry to be a pain.. but i still can't get it working after many attempts.. I've udpated the RichText.ascx to the same as posted above.. and by doing that i get the Error about unable to find radE:RadEditor (because it isn't declared in the Web.config) I updated it to reflect the Web.config edit to the telerik:RadEditor as declared: By doing this, i then get the error: Parser Error Message: The base class includes the field 'rtcComment', but its type (CounterSoft.Gemini.RichText) is not compatible with the type of control (ASP.controlsrichtextascx). I can't seem to come up with a solution for this.. Can someone point me in the right direction? I am only new to asp and web development.. so i'm still trying to grasp it all... Thanks in advance.. |

You should not change the actual tag name, leave it as it was in 3.0.x. Just add the extra properties. |

By extra properties, do you mean in the web.config file? as I have done this, and also ensured that the RadEditor.Net2.dll library is in the bin directory. I have updated the RichText.ascx to the same as above (only changing directories) as so: (this is the entire contects of the RichText.ascx.. is this correct? <radE:RadEditor id="RadEditor1" Runat="server" I have ensured the ToolFile.xml is located in the root/RadControls directory. yet, i still get the error: Parser Error Message: any further idea's on what the issue could be at all?

Sorry, which version of Gemini are you running? The image and document manager should be enabled by default now. |

Ahh great.. i just upgraded to 3.0.4 and its all working again. One thing i did notice that was missing, was the Document Manager settings in RichText.ascx.. <DocumentManager Could this possibly be in future releases by default? Without it, the Document Manager is useless. Thanks guys, Craig |
