  Hi michel,

  In order to provide you with an appropriate solution, I would need a bit more details about the scenario you want to accomplish. What is the type of the items ? If you want to follow the change of the selected item, can you use the SelectionChanged event ?
   

  Best wishes,

  Hello alex,

  1. Unfortunately, for the time being you cannot control the offset between the items.
  2. You may add a handler for a click event for example and implement the logic you want. I am sending you a sample project illustrating how to handle double-click on an item.
  3. You may play along with the Scale as demonstrated in this example for RadCarouselPanel. Thus you may try to achieve a similar to result as desired.

  Thank you very much!
  
  My project is going on thanks your advice!
  I would like to know three more things:
  
  1. Is possible to increase width and height of the element at the center of the Carousel?
  2. with a timer I'm moving the carousel but when I reach the end I have to change the direction (Right to left) because The carousel doesn't restart this is how I'm doing:
  
  

  var panel = this.thumbCarousel.FindCarouselPanel();

   

                      if (directionRight)

                      {

                          panel.MoveBy(1);

                      }

                      else

                      {

                          panel.MoveBy(-1);

                      }

                      if (this.HasReachedEnd())

                          directionRight = false;

                      if (HasReachedStart())

                      {

                          directionRight = true;

                      }

   

                      RadCarouselPanel radP = this.thumbCarousel.FindCarouselPanel();

                      if (radP.TopContainer != null)

                      {

                          radTransCtrl.Content = (IntPtr)(((CarouselItem)radP.TopContainer).Item);

                          updateText();

                      }

  3. in the code showed above "radTransCtrl" is a Transaction control which show the center element of the carousel but it doesn't take it instated it takes the previeus one How is possible?
   
  Thank you!

  Hello alex,

  In order to change the size of the center item, you may use scaling. For example:
  

  <telerik:RadCarousel x:Name="MilanCarousel" Background="Black" >           

      <telerik:RadCarousel.ItemsPanel>

          <ItemsPanelTemplate>

              <telerik:RadCarouselPanel ItemsPerPage="5">

                  <telerik:RadCarouselPanel.ScaleStops>

                      <telerik:PathStopCollection>

                          <telerik:PathStop PathFraction="0.4" Value="1.0"/>

                          <telerik:PathStop PathFraction="0.5" Value="2.0"/>

                          <telerik:PathStop PathFraction="0.6" Value="1.0"/>

                      </telerik:PathStopCollection>

                  </telerik:RadCarouselPanel.ScaleStops>

          </telerik:RadCarouselPanel>

      </ItemsPanelTemplate>

       </telerik:RadCarousel.ItemsPanel>

  </telerik:RadCarousel>

  
  For further reference, you may take a look at our demo for RadCarousel.
  Considering your second concern, I would need a bit more information. When are you executing the movement ? What is the implementation of the method HasReachedEnd() ?  Any relevant code-snippet and details about your customization would be helpful.
