XAMLflix Video: RadSlider for Silverlight and WPF

It’s Tuesday and time for a XAMLflix video.  This week we’re looking at RadSlider.

XAMLflix is produced by Telerik, and designed to assist you with getting the most out of the controls in Telerik’s XAML Suite for Silverlight and WPF.  We create a new video tutorial every Tuesday and Thursday and a new written tutorial every Wednesday.

Some of you may know that Tuesday is usually Michael’s, and my videos are usually Thursday, but we thought we’d switch it up this week. 

In today’s videos we introduce and then work with the RadSlider. Note that while the video was created with our Silverlight controls, because the Telerik Silverlight and WPF controls share a common codebase and API, you only have to learn how to use it once.

RadSlider is a very flexible component that allows users to select a value from a defined range.  The control is very customizable and offers numerous configuration options. 

Today’s videos are:

• RadSlider Getting Started.  This video examines how you create a RadSlider control and add it to your application. (Download the project)
• RadSlider Advanced Features.  This video demonstrates how you can adapt the RadSlider to your application requirements, changing the appearance of the slider, the tick marks and so forth.  (Download the project)

Wrap-Up

These videos have demonstrated how easy it is to add a RadSlider to your application and to tweak it to look and behave as you need. Of course, RadSlider is only one of the controls offered in the Silverlight/WPF suite. So, feel free to download your own copy of the Silverlight and WPF control suite right now.
