As Q3 is approaching we give you a sneak preview of what’s coming in November. What’s new in the box: RadChartingKit Our brand new ChartingKit control empowers users to understand and analyze complex data and ensures great performance for your data visualization applications. The new architecture comes to serve the numerous requests for improvements in our existing RadChart control. We decided to build this new control from scratch to achieve the best results that could not have been done with the architecture of the old RadChart. The new ChartingKit reuses the charting engine from our Windows Phone 7 Chart and guarantees flexibility, advanced customization options and unique performance. Check out the ChartingKit demos RadEntityFrameworkDataSource (WPF...

Now that the dust has settled from Build, we’re all back to our day jobs and still working on the same Silverlight, WPF, and Windows Phone projects that we were working on before Build. As you might have read from Todd, Doug, Vassil, Steve, or Silverlight experts like Jeremy, Dan, and Laurent, the sky has in fact not fallen and the future for .Net development on the non-Metrofied Windows 8 desktop is alive and well.  On top of that, since most of us are working on projects in the here and now and want support for multiple versions of...

A blog by Todd Anglin, Chief Evangelist at Telerik. (Original post here) During my busy week at the Microsoft BUILD conference, I cranked-out a quick and rough decision tree designed to help you decide which Microsoft platform you should use for app development:Silverlight/WPF, HTML5, or the new Metro/WinRT. The chart proved to be very popular, so I thought I'd revisit the decision tree and with the benefit of more time to reflect, produce a new, more complete version. Thus, I present version 2 of the "How to Pick Your Platform" chart. What's Different? In the original chart, the first question I made you answer was, "Do you need to support...

Introduction In one of the previous blog posts, we gave you a quick overview of how to use RadImageEditorUI to add a basic image editor to your application in a few simple steps. However, there is often a need for more customized image editing capabilities, in which case you can use the bare-bone RadImageEditor control. It doesn’t force a specific UI, so you can choose one that will best integrate in your application.
