Yes, seriously, my first reaction to a post in which I noticed BDD-kinda-tests was something like "whoa, interesting naming convention for test method names, and all these underscores...". After that I came upon several other blog posts containing BDD tests and I still didn't get the idea. Then I read Dan North's post introducing the idea of Behavior Driven Development and I finally started catching the point. But catching the point at that time was not like "well, it's worth it and I'll try it" but rather like "ok, it's a TDD variation with some funky new lingo, so... ok". I could abandon...

I am sure that you are wondering why I would spend time blogging about implementing a control as simple as the RadNumericUpDown for WPF.  After all this is not a complex control and if you have done any client development you have probably used a NumericUpDown in the past.  Well, this is not the same control and it does have some nice features that you may not be aware are available.  I thought it might be nice to demonstrate some of these features.

Since there were a couple of requests for custom Radial Gauge, I will present a way to create a semi-circle gauge. That is generally achieved in two steps: Customize the radial scale range Four parameters define the radial scale range: StartAngle, SweepAngle, Radius and Center. The StartAngle and SweepAngle are specified in degrees (0 to 360), starting from the right side of the gauge, going clockwise (note, that positive angle direction is starts from positive X and goes to the positive...

Up until today, of all product lines that Telerik offers only RadControls for WinForms required full installation of the product in order to view the examples the suite comes with. All other product lines had a web version of their Quick-Start Frameworks (QSFs), making product and feature reviews easy and trouble-free. Ever since the introduction of RadControls for WinForms a couple of years ago, we have been looking for ways to provide the WinForms demos to our customers without asking them to install the suite beforehand.
