    Under the Hood of RadImageEditor for Silverlight and WPF

    RadChart for Windows Phone 7 – fun with gestures

    As Q2 2011 is officially out, we are really excited about all the interactivity features we shipped with our charting component.

By implementing a handler for the RadChart.PreviewGesture event you may provide completely custom interactivity depending on your custom scenario. When marked as “Handled” the event will have higher priority than any default behaviors registered with the Chart.
