As of 2024 Q4 (November), we will deprecate the .NET 7 distribution. This decision is rooted in our dedication to align with Microsoft’s recommended framework versions so that our products leverage the latest advancements in technology, security, and performance.
We are aligning our product with Microsoft’s lowest-supported framework versions for .NET Framework and .NET, respectively. Please refer to the following blog post: Product Update for Enhanced Performance and Security

We are using WPF with Prism, MEF, and Telerik controls (PdfViewer and GridView, version 2017.2.503.45). Our application loads multiple tab views dynamically using the MVVM pattern. Each view contains multiple Telerik controls, and their data is bound from the ViewModel.
The issue we are facing is that when a tab is closed, the Telerik controls still hold references to the associated ViewModel, preventing the memory from being released.
We have tried the following approaches while closing the tab:
RadPdfViewer.DataContext = null;
RadPdfViewer = null;
RadGridView.DataContext = null;
RadGridView = null;
We also tried disposing of the Telerik controls, but the memory is still retained by them.
We have also defined the PdfViewer in XAML, but no PDF file was ever loaded into it from the UI. However, even in this case, the XAML view is not being disposed when the tab is closed, and the PdfViewer still holds a reference to the view.
Could you please help us identify how to properly release memory and ensure the controls?
Can RadGlyph work with Font Awesome's Duotone font? For example, we want to render: https://fontawesome.com/icons/house?f=duotone&s=solid
I've tried various things, including:
<Grid>
<!-- Secondary (back) layer -->
<telerik:RadGlyph
Font="fads"
FontSize="40"
Glyph="􏀕"
Foreground="Red" />
<!-- Primary (front) layer -->
<telerik:RadGlyph
Font="fads"
FontSize="40"
Glyph=""
Foreground="Blue" />
</Grid>
This just renders an all blue house.
Reversing the elements:
<telerik:RadTabItem.Content>
<Grid>
<!-- Primary (front) layer -->
<telerik:RadGlyph
Font="fads"
FontSize="40"
Glyph=""
Foreground="Blue" />
<!-- Secondary (back) layer -->
<telerik:RadGlyph
Font="fads"
FontSize="40"
Glyph="􏀕"
Foreground="Red" />
</Grid>
I'm using the same technique I use to register regular Font Awesome fonts and have verified the codepoints exist:
var solidDuotoneFontFilePath = Path.Combine(directory, "Resources/Fonts", "Font Awesome 7 Duotone-Solid-900.otf");
var solidDuotoneFontUri = new Uri(solidDuotoneFontFilePath, UriKind.Absolute);
var solidDuotoneFontFamily = new FontFamily(solidDuotoneFontUri, "./#Font Awesome 7 Duotone Solid");
RadGlyph.RegisterFont(solidDuotoneFontFamily, "fads");
bool HasChar(FontFamily fam, int codePoint)
{
var tf = new Typeface(fam, FontStyles.Normal, FontWeights.Normal, FontStretches.Normal);
if (!tf.TryGetGlyphTypeface(out var gtf)) return false;
return gtf.CharacterToGlyphMap.ContainsKey(codePoint);
}
Debug.WriteLine($"Primary F015 present: {HasChar(solidDuotoneFontFamily, 0xF015)}");
Debug.WriteLine($"Secondary 10F015 present: {HasChar(solidDuotoneFontFamily, 0x10F015)}");

I'm using central package management, where my Directory.Build.props has folliwing entries:

As you can maybe see,
Telerik.UI.for.Wpf.NetCore.Xaml has 2024.1.423
Telerik.Windows.Controls.DataVisualization.for.Wpf has 2024.3.924
when using the manage nuget packages dialog from within visual studio it does not report that any updates are necessary, but the build tells me that (of course) there is a version mismatch,
The dialog even tells me that there is a newer version:
What could be the problem that it doesn't get updated or is not found to require an update?

Hi Team,
We have developer license for the Telerik UI for WPF product, however we are unable to get the developer MSI for the Telerik UI for WPF 2024.1.130.45. Only the trial version is visible now.
Could you please guide us to get the dev version of 2024.1.130.45?
