    This is a quick guide for using ASP.NET MVC4 WebAPI, OData, and Entity Framework as a remote data source for Kendo UI, as well as performing some operations like filtering on the server side. (If you just want to copy/paste some JavaScript that works, with no explanation...

    Test Studio And HTML Frames

    Frames are not well liked it seems. Digging around the web I find that lot of people consider using frames very poor practice. Now I'm not a web developer so I really wouldn't know about that. But what I can tell you is that automating frames can be tricky. There's some things you'll need to know if you want to save yourself a lot of frustration. And here we go (all this stuff is in the context of Test Studio):  You need to find Frames before you can use them Frames contains objects. If you want to automate ...

    A Visit from DotNetRocks

    Recently Carl Franklin and Richard Campbell of DotNetRocks made a slight detour in their Visual Studio 2012 Launch Road Trip to visit Telerik’s Hudson, Ohio offices (just after a previous “detour” to DevReach in Bulgaria).  The dynamic duo were on their way from Pittsburgh to Toronto, and Hudson is not too far out of the way along that route. You can continue to track their road trip progress in real time at http://dnrroadshow.cloudapp.net/.  In addition to seeing where they are, you’ll also find related tweets along the way, like these: Once the RV pulled up, we treated the DNR crew to some barbecue, which everyone...

    RadAutoCompleteBox–An Annotated Demo

    In our Q3 Webinar, I demonstrated the RadAutoCompleteBox, Telerik's Silverlight AutoCompleteBox, part of the RadControls for Silverlight and WPF.  In this blog post, I will walk through that demo in detail.  The demo itself is extracted and simplified from the QSF demo that downloads with the RadControls for Silverlight and WPF. To begin, create a new project of type RadControls WPF Application and name it AutoCompleteBoxDemo. In the Project Configuration Wizard select Telerik.Windows.Controls.Input.  Like nearly all interesting projects, it starts with data; in this case a set of Songs and their “Authors.”  To start, right click on the project and add...

    JustCode Keyboard Shortcuts Profiles

    Most of the commands in Telerik JustCode are assigned keyboard shortcuts, granting the speed and convenience you expect from a quality productivity tool. This is, of course, a very important and often overlooked feature. For Q3 2012, we decided to improve the way in which JustCode approaches shortcuts by creating keyboard shortcuts profiles and related enhancements. The purpose of JustCode’s keyboard shortcuts profiles Before the introduction of keyboard shortcuts profiles, JustCode only had one predefined set of shortcuts for its commands. Visual Studio silently applied these shortcuts during its first execution after the installation of JustCode. This behavior proved to be inconvenient to many...
