    Changing the Backcolor for the RadMenu for WinForms

    Recently a question regarding how to change the BackColor of the RadMenu for WinForms.  I thought it might be easier to outline this process with screenshots so I put together a quick post to answer the question. After creating a new WinForms application project, I added a RadMenu.  The screenshot below shows that the default color of the menu is blue. The quickest way to accomplish this task is to click on the SmartTag in the DesignView.  Then select the Edit UI Element menu option. This will open a new window which is called the Element hierarchy editor. Within the Element hierarchy editor, select the...

    How To: Save and load settings with RadGridView for WPF

    I’ve made small demo on how to save and restore various RadGridView settings using ApplicationSettingsBase. To turn on this for your grid you can simply set RadGridViewSettings.IsEnabled attached property: <Window x:Class="WpfApplication1.Window1" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2008/xaml/presentation" xmlns:local="clr-namespace:WpfApplication1" xmlns:ts="clr-namespace:Telerik.Settings" Title="Window1"> <Grid> <Grid.Resources> <ObjectDataProvider x:Key="customers" ObjectType="{x:Type local:NorthwindDataContext}" MethodName="get_Customers"> </ObjectDataProvider> </Grid.Resources> <telerik:RadGridView ts:RadGridViewSettings.IsEnabled="True" x:Name="RadGridView1" ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource customers}}"/> </Grid></Window> Saved settings...

    Creating a Half circle WPF RadGauge

    During a recent webinar, a question was asked about whether you can create a half circle gauge.  I recently covered this in my “Introducing RadGauge for WPF” webinar, but thought it would be good to have a quick blog post as well.  Below you will see a RadialGauge which contains two RadialScales placed along the left and right of the gauge.  This is actually very easy to produce since the RadialGauge is simply a container, you can place a number of scales inside of the gauge.      Here is the XAML for the screenshot...

    WinForms RadGridView's new clothes

      In our latest release – Q1 2009 – we were focused mostly on addressing known issues and minimizing the memory footprint of RadGridView for WinForms.  However, we managed also to steal some time and redesign all of RadGridView’s themes. Some optimizations in our TPF framework helped us with this task. One of the heaviest operations in GDI+ is clipping. We managed to remove the clipping where it wasn’t really needed. This way we achieved two goals with a single shot: first, we got a performance boost, and second, we achieved better graphics and smoothed edges when using shapes. Our new Desert...

    RadScheduler for WinForms has learned some nice new tricks

    The long awaited Q1 2009 release is finally out and with it comes a greatly improved version of RadScheduler for WinForms. Among the more interesting new features of RadScheduler are: Multi-day view   Notice how there are two date time intervals shown – (13 – 14 March) and (17 – 19 March). Brand new iCalendar import / export functionality which will allow you to make applications with RadScheduler that can exchange appointment data with Outlook. (Dedicated blog post to follow soon.) Now combine that nice iCal import / export functionality with data binding and you have…you guessed it – support for storing recurrence rules for appointments in...
