    Have a safe trip from WinForms to WPF

    We have received several requests so far by customers who one way or another ask for the same thing: "Can you make your WPF controls in such a way that later when I convert my WinForms application (which use your WinForms controls) to WPF I wouldn't need to deal with different APIs and inconsistencies?".   In general, this could be achieved if we had: the same feature set in these two product lines the same API for our WinForms controls and WPF controls The first point is feasible and we'll do our best to do it.   The second, however, is something we probably won’t do....

    Pony returns

    Well... I haven't blogged for so long that I almost forgot about this activity. One of my last posts was around the time we made "the big Bang release". It was so long ago (April 2007) that we spelled Rad as r.a.d. at that time. May be you remember that at that time there was a quest about the release and there was a forum thread about the quest. One guy (Mark Fitzpatrick) asked for RadPony. Well, we couldn't release a pony and it's still not sure it’s going to appear on the roadmap but somehow for me the pony...

    WPF - What Products Follow?

    Since we released the first version of our Windows Forms UI controls we've received quite a lot of questions about our plans for WPF. Basically the questions revolve around the following: - Is Telerik going to offer products for WPF? - When will they be public? - What controls will be included? Most of you probably know the answer to the first question and is an unequivocal “Yes”! Even though there are some misconceptions that WPF is good only for displaying cool things on the sides of a rotating cube, we believe that even in its current form it offers a lot to build upon....

    r.a.d.controls for WinForms in WPF

    As most of you may already know, .NET Framework 3.0 has officially been released. Personally, I think WPF is great. I can't wait to see the final versions of Expression Interactive Designer and VS 2005 extensions for .NET 3.0. You can download it, check it, and admire its potential. Once the admiration starts fading away, you may ask yourself "now what?". You may start writing applications from scratch, you may start migrating existing WinForms applications, or you may decide to wait for the final versions of Expression Interactive Designer and Visual Studio Orcas. You may even decide to wait till Windows...

    WPF in action - part 1: Designer's look on WPF

    I am yet to grasp the marketing behind Microsoft naming conventions - usually a beta program would jump start with a great name, the official launch would kill it in a dull title, and things would finally settle down with an abbreviation that is actually pronounceable. Naming conventions aside, the upcoming Windows Presentation Framework (WPF), formerly known as Avalon, holds promise to become the next buzzword of the industry - even if someone adds to it another sentence before the official roll-out with Windows Vista in early 2007.From a designer's point of view, the next-generation interface for Windows is all...
