    RadDataForm and RadGridView integration - popup editing.

      Often collection data is better presented in a tabular view and better edited in a form view. Such UX approach is referred by our clients as “Popup editing in RadGridView”. With the help of the new RadDataForm and the good old RadGridView a few lines of code are needed to accomplish this.

    New control for WPF and Silverlight from Telerik - RadDataForm

    Touch scrolling in RadGridView for Silverlight

    A popular feature that is often requested is multi-touch scrolling in the RadGridView control. This is easily achievable in WPF, because of the new yummy System.Windows.Input.Manipulations namespace introduced in .NET 4.0. However, Silverlight has yet to receive such a high-level touch API. The only tool we have at our disposal is the System.Windows.Input.Touch class with its one member, the FrameReported event. Nevertheless, it gives us a lot of control when it comes to handling touch events. I used it to make a little behavior that enables touch scrolling. You can also scroll horizontally and by dragging the mouse (both options controlled...
