    Host Telerik’s WPF Gauges and Charts in RadGridView for WinForms

    Did you have a chance to try the beta versions of Telerik’s WPF gauges and charts ? Yes? And you like them, but already have a big and complex WinForms project and you have no plans to upgrade it to the new amazing WPF technology soon? Do not worry; you can get the best of both worlds and use the WPF goodies in your WinForms application thanks to the ElementHost control that resides in the namespace System.Windows.Forms.Integration.  You could find more info on this topic in the following MSDN article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms745781.aspx Following this concept, I have prepared a WinForms application with Telerik’s WPF...

    Storing User Docking preferences

        Many times in an application you want your user to have the ability to set preferences.  This extends to a variety of settings, but what about the interface itself?  If you are using the DockingManager you can give the user the ability to modify the layout of existing DockPanels and store it for them.  Why would you want to let the user change the layout?  Every person is different and most people enjoy having the option of customizing an application.  This can be as simple as having a tool window on the right of the screen instead of the...
