    Naming Conventions in JustCode

    Choosing appropriate identifiers for the constructs in your code provides better readability and maintainability. With the latest build of Telerik JustCode you can now easily set naming conventions for all your code elements. Configuration and Supported languages These rules can be set for C# and VB.NET and are part of the Code Style section of the JustCode options dialog: These options are part of the shared settings so you can share them per solution as well. Naming Rules There are seven types of rules that a user can choose from: camelCase PascalCase UPPER_UNDERSCORE lower_underscore Sentence_underscore PascalCase_Underscore camelCase_Underscore You can also disable the naming convention for a specific construct. Just choose “Disabled” from the rules...

    The Q1 2012 MVC Beta is here with new Area chart and galore of charting features

    I am happy to announce the immediate availability of the Telerik MVC Extensions Q1 2012 Beta release! With it comes the longed-for Area chart type as well as a bunch of new features for the majority of the existing chart types supported by our MVC charting. We are also shipping a plethora of small and medium-sized features across all the Telerik MVC extensions, as well as formal support for the Chrome 16 and FireFox 10 browser versions. I won't go into much detail about each and every new functionality delivered with the Beta and, consecutively, the upcoming official major release...

    Using RadSlideView for Windows Phone to Load Items on Demand

    Download the demo project Download the Q1 2012 BETA   RadSlideView is one of the major and widely used controls in our RadControls for Windows Phone tools. For the Q1 2012 BETA release we completely revamped its architecture and API design to meet all the feedback and feature requests we gathered from our users. Instead of inheriting from RadLoopingList, the control now inherits from the abstract DataControlBase class and exposes properties and methods similar to the ones found in our RadDataBoundListBox. We believe this approach will have better adoption and will be more intuitive to you – our users. This re-design allowed us to improve performance...

    XAMLflix continues with RadBarCode for Silverlight and WPF

    Hello everyone and welcome back to XAMLflix with RadBarCode for Silverlight and WPF. What is XAMLflix you might ask? Well, it is Telerik’s way of teaching you how to use both new and existing controls from Telerik’s XAML suite. Each and every Thursday, we will provide a fresh batch of videos and sample projects highlighting a different control. Since our Silverlight and WPF share a common codebase and API, you only have to learn how to use these controls once! You can simply copy and paste the code between frameworks. If you are eager to get started then go ahead and download...

    Horizontal Scrolling in RadDataBoundListBox now available

    RadDataBoundListBox has been continuously developed and extended with new features like Item Animations, CheckBoxes support, Data Virtualization support etc. We have also fine-tuned its performance so that it perfectly fits in an environment of limited memory and CPU resources what a mobile phone is. You can see here a real-world scenario based comparison between RadDataBoundListBox and a standard ListBox control putting both UI Virtualization approaches head to head. With Q1 2012 Beta we are introducing an entirely new feature which also paves the way for a more complex and performance-optimized Wrap Virtualization Layout: Horizontal Scrolling. A nice example is available in our Demos app...
