RadScheduler for WinForms data binding and occurrence exceptions
The big [new] feature for Q3 2009 release in RadScheduler for WinForms has got to be the resource grouping functionality. There are, however, numerous other improvements that also deserve attention, such as data binding. Some of you may remember that in its first release the WinForms Scheduler had just basic support for binding to appointment data.

With the next Q3 2009 official release we are introducing a significant improvement to the validation mechanism of the RadGridView control.

Making a Step chart in RadChart for Silverlight and WPF
So a customer emailed into our office yesterday asking about whether RadChart for Silverlight supported a Step chart type. Well, while we do have a boatload of chart types already, Step is currently not one of them. But a Step chart is really just a Line chart with a bit of extra work, right?
