    Implementing WP7 ToDo application from A to Z

    [download the application complete source code from your Telerik account ] Introduction As part of our support service in Telerik we are implementing integration examples for our customers. The aim of these examples is mainly to show how to use the controls in real-life scenarios. In the case of WP7 (Windows Phone 7) it is a little bit different. The platform is still quite new and there is high demand for examples that not only show the usage of the Telerik controls, but the usage of the platform too. Also there is a marketplace where we can show our applications to the end users...

    How To Drag A File From Desktop And Drop It In RadTreeView Placed In WPF Application

      Sometimes we need to extend the RadTreeView’s Drag’and’Drop abilities in order to accept external data from other applications or Windows.

We can first create some ViewModels: PlayerViewModel, TeamViewModel, LeagueViewModel that all inherit from BaseViewModel. The BaseViewModel will implement the INotifyPropertyChanged interface and will expose Name(string) and ImgSource(Uri) properties. Then we will create...
