    RadSchedulerNavigator for RadScheduler

    The Q1 2009 release of the RadControls for WinForms suite introduced pretty neat features in the RadScheduler control which were thoroughly described in this blog-post that came out a couple of days after we uploaded the new version. However, while designing the examples for the RadScheduler control (which you can find in our Demos Application) an idea for a brand new control came out - the RadSchedulerNavigator :     Designed as a separate component, the RadSchedulerNavigator can be easily bound to a RadScheduler instance both in the Visual Studio Designer and in runtime. The control serves as a convenient UI for navigating between...

    Choosing between RadControls for WinForms and the standard Windows Forms controls

    Ever wondered how RadControls for WinForms differ from the standard Windows forms controls? Or needed a particular feature that is supported in the standard controls, but were unsure whether Telerik has it? Regardless of whether you are just starting with RadControls for WinForms, or have a large project in the works, we have a reference white paper for you to look into. We spent some time on creating a detailed comparison between the RadControls features and the capabilities of the standard Windows Forms tools, available in the Visual Studio toolbox, so that you do not have to! This means that choosing between...

    Maximizing space with RadExpander for WPF

    When designing an application a challenge that all user interfaces must contend with is available screen real estate.  While you want to maximize the information available to the user, you also want to avoid visual overload.  There are a variety of controls available that allow you to minimize the impact of options on a form.  For example, the RadioButtons below display three options for the user, but for each option you take up valuable screen real estate.  A ComboBox offers the same choices to the user when expanded, but takes up minimal space on the form when not being used. ...

    Performance Monitor using RadChart for WinForms

    I have had a few people ask me about using the RadChart in the same manner as Performance Monitor (aka PerfMon). If you are not familiar with PerfMon, it is a tool that has been provided with Microsoft Windows for quite some time. You can open PerfMon by clicking the Start button within Windows, typing “perfmon” in the search box and pressing Enter.  PerfMon is a simple utility that displays performance counters. There are a wide variety of counters available, from CPU utilization of process threads to how many times the .NET Garbage Collector has run. The counters PerfMon allows...

    WPF / Silverlight: RadChart PointMark Customization

    RadChart supported point mark visual indicators for chart series like Line, Area, Spline, etc. from version one, however, customization of these indicators was hard and certainly not for the faint-hearted. With the latest version of the control released this week (Q1 2009 SP1) we introduced two major improvements that significantly simplify the interaction with the point mark indicators.   Option 1: Customizing the appearance of the point marks through the PointMark API and predefined point mark shapes RadChart supports 8 predefined shapes that you can use for the point marks (members of the Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting.MarkerShape enumeration): Circle (default) Diamond Hexagon Triangle Square SquareRounded StarFiveRay StarEightRay   Here is a sample code snippet that demonstrates...
