    How to show hidden panes in the Silverlight docking control

    Usually, when you use docking manager you want to be able to re-open the closed panes. This looks as simple as setting the IsHidden property of the pane to False. However, this does not cover all the cases. The pane might be in a ToolWindow and this ToolWindow might be closed by its X button. In this case, the pane would not be hidden, but it would not be visible either as it is in the hidden window. Another approach might be closing the last pane in a ToolWindow, thus triggering closing the window, too. In this case the pane will...

    Running WebUI Test Studio tests with MSTest and MSBuild

    Introduction Let’s start with a few words about MSTest and MSBuild. MSTest is a software unit testing framework developed by Microsoft. With MSTest you can manage and run unit tests from within the Visual Studio IDE, as well as externally, from the command line. MSBuild is a Microsoft build platform typically used in conjunction with Visual Studio. MSBuild version 2.0 is part of .NET Framework 2.0 and works together with Visual Studio 2005. Version 3.5 of MSBuild, which is bundled together with .NET 3.5 (and Visual Studio 2008), allows .NET projects to be built for either 2.0, 3.0 or ...

    Saying goodbye…

    Today marked my last day as a Telerik Evangelist. It is with some regret that I say goodbye because I have really enjoyed my time with Telerik, getting to know both the outstanding products we build, the outstanding people who build them, and the outstanding customers we support. Telerik has been a great (and fun!) company to work for, and I can’t say enough good things about them. I have been impressed with how deeply Telerik cares about their customers and how tirelessly they work to “deliver more than expected” for each and every one of you. Even though I’m...

    Using RadTreeView for WPF

    The video below is from a webinar that I presented on the RadTreeView for WPF.  The webinar covered some of the basic functionality of the RadTreeView and should give you a good understanding of how to get started with the RadTreeView.  While this webinar is focused on the WPF version of the RadTreeView control, the content is also relevant to the Silverlight version as...

    Telerik Reporting Q1 2009 SP1 is now live

    Once again our constant urge to provide you with the Telerik quality you're used to, resulted in Q1's first service pack of Telerik Reporting. It's needless to say that it contains important bug fixes and improvements of the product and to our new "players" - the Table and HtmlTextBox items. Here is a brief overview: Added support for multi-page view in the Win Report Viewer - although it is not common to include new functionality for a service pack, we decided to push this through instead of making you wait for the Q2 release. This has been long awaited feature for many of you, so do give it a spin. Next thing...
