New major version of RadInput is now available as a part of RadControls “Prometheus” for ASP.NET. Its new architecture is based on top the ASP.NET AJAX framework in order to directly benefit from client-side behaviors and capabilities. We strongly recommend using the new version for all new development.
Telerik RadInput v2.1.3 (part of Telerik RadControls for ASP.NET Q3 2007 SP1)
Improved RadInput controls rendering: if no label and buttons are enabled (ShowButton="false", Label="", ShowSpinButtons="false" (for the RadNumericTextBox)), the input renders in a span element.
Telerik RadInput v2.1.0 (part of Telerik RadControls for ASP.NET Q2 2007)
New rendering for RadInput which allows proper support of different width/height units (e.g. percentage) has been implemented. It introduces the following changes:
- If you set the Label property of the input controls you should have in mind that it is a part of the control and its width is a part of the control width too so you should set a bigger width of the control in order to preserve its normal appearance.
- A few skins have been modified: Mac, Inox and Macromedia -> they now come with fixed width skins.
Telerik RadInput v2.0.2 to Telerik RadInput v2.1
There are no major changes and the product is fully backwards compatible.
Telerik RadInput v2.0 to Telerik RadInput v2.0.2
RadMaskedTextBox conversion has been finished. One will find additional properties (like SelectionOnFocus) available in the masked text box as well.
The rendering of its input is the same like the other input controls - it ends with _text instead of _TextBox.
Telerik RadInput v1.5 to Telerik RadInput v2.0
Two new controls has been introduced in version 2.0 of RadInput - RadTextBox and RadNumericTextBox.
The old RadDateInput has been refined - 'smart parsing engine' is added, its object model is reorganized and extended and its integration with RadCalendar is more intuitive now. The performance is greatly optimized.
RadDateInput Breaking Changes
The logic controlling the blank date display is separated from the MinDate value, i. e. setting the SelectedDate property to the MinDate value will not clear the RadDateInput control anymore. You can display a blank date by not setting the SelectedDate or by calling the RadDateInput.Clear() method. If you are using ASP.NET 2.0 you can clear the date by setting the SelectedDate property to null as well (the SelectedDate property is implemented as a nullable DateTime object in ASP.NET 2.0).

As of Q2 2006 we have introduced a variety of new common skins (themes in ASP.NET 2.0) for all Telerik RadControls for ASP.NET. By default all controls take a new polished look and feel which is consistent across the whole product line. Five other new common skins (Outlook, Mac, Inox, Telerik and WebBlue) have been added to all Telerik RadControls for ASP.NET for a richer set of interface designs to choose from.

Please, note that if you want to use the old default skins of any product you can still find them in RadControls/[ProductName]/Skins. A preview of all the provided skins is available in our Live Examples. |
