Styling Basics with Visual Style Builder for WinForms
With the Q1 2010 Release of the RadControls for WinForms, we are bringing you a powerful new version of Visual Style Builder (VSB). This new version of VSB makes building themes a breeze with its new Theme Repositories feature. Today I thought I would spend some time going over the basics of VSB and its new system of Theme Repositories. Theme Repositories In previous versions of VSB, it was only possible to change theme properties on a per-element basis. This means that when building a theme, you actually had to select each individual element of every single control and ...March 01, 2010 -

WinForms RadGridView vNext will feature new hierarchy modes and performance improvements!
During the past year, we received many suggestions for new features and bug fixes for RadGridView for WinForms. After analyzing them we realized that we should do a major refactoring of both the data layer and the UI of our grid control. Then we set an ambitious goal -- to refactor the control and implement the most wanted features. This is obviously a massive task and the new grid control will not be part of Q1, but it is coming up afterwards as beta, and will be officially available for Q2 2010. This will give us enough time to test all...February 26, 2010 -

New Timeline View in RadScheduler for WinForms
As Q1 2010 is approaching, we thought it would be a good idea to tell you a few words about the new features in RadScheduler for WinForms. RadScheduler for WinForms will include a brand new Timeline View , designed to display continuous schedule for one or multiple resources. Time-slot duration, time-slot cells count, visible resources count and view’s duration will be fully customizable. For example you can set the time-slot duration to any value from 15 minutes to 1 year and restrict your scheduler view from 01/01/2009 to 01/01/2011. The screenshot below shows a timeline view grouped by...February 25, 2010 -

WPF / Silverlight: How-to improve user experience when placing RadChart in a container that changes size rapidly on user demand
I must admit that coming up with a meaningful and relatively short title was really hard this time. Anyway, here is the scenario: You have a page layout with Grid panel with several cells and one of the cells is occupied by a RadChart control instance. Your requirements indicate that the grid layout should be flexible so you have placed several grid splitters in your panel as well. Soon enough, one of your QAs decides to play around with the GridSplitter and notices that the application slows down and becomes irresponsive (and can even crash) when the splitter is dragged around...February 19, 2010 -

WPF / Silverlight: Integrating RadChart and RadContextMenu Controls
One common request that we are receiving recently is how to integrate the RadChart and RadContextMenu controls so they play nicely together. A typical real-life scenario would probably require that each ChartItem should display different (context-specific) set of menu items. In order to address the increased interest in this functionality we decided to add a new integration example for the Q1 2010 release but for those of you that need something working right now, here is a quick overview of the required steps to add context-specific menu to Bar series items in RadChart (this can be applied to any series...February 08, 2010
