    Bug-tracker conversion tool: Gemini -> TFS

    Our migration to Team Foundation Server started a couple of months ago with the Source Control adoption. Another step that we performed was to transfer our Countersoft's Gemini bug-tracker projects to TFS Issue Tracking System. I've been searching around for a tool that would perform the job automagically ;-) and found nothing but other inquiries on the subject without answers. So, I'm posting the code, which helped us migrate our projects. Hopefully someone else can benefit from it too and I can save some of your time up.   Well, there is no rocket science here, but the code, ...

    Standard Compliant RadInput With No Tables

    By popular demand, some Telerik web controls such as RadInput behave like inline-block elements, i.e. they do not force new lines on the page and at the same time, they obey width, height and other block-level-specific CSS properties. In addition, RadInput supports a scenario in which several HTML elements (Label, TextBox and a Button) occupy a preset amount of space, without calculating and changing these elements' widths with Javascript on the client. Unfortunately, all these requirements cannot be met with the current browser CSS support and CSS specification. That's why some of the features and functionalities are implemented at the cost of compromising web standards - we use some...

    Licensing for RadControls "Prometheus" for ASP.NET

    It seems that despite our best efforts to educate customers, we haven't done a great job at letting everyone know that: When you buy a RadControls for ASP.NET license, with subscription or not, you get a matching license for "Prometheus" controls and you can download the developer build of the controls from your Client.net account. It is up to you to decide whether you want to use the classic controls or the "Prometheus" ones. Everyone who buys an ASP.NET Subscription or a subscription license for the all-inclusive SKU (which includes all UI components for web and desktop development plus Telerik Reporting) gets "Prometheus" as a...

    RadChart: Zooming and Scrolling Support

    Hello, We've been receiving a lot of feedback on our charting control lately that indicated interactivity is one of the most desired aspects where we can significantly improve our offering. And we listened! It's my pleasure to announce that starting from the Q1 2008 release in April our RadChart Prometheus control will provide scrolling and zooming support out-of-the-box. Here is a sneak preview that just made it out of the Telerik Charting Labs: Default view: Choose zooming area / factor: Scaled part is displayed -- you can scroll into view other parts of the chart as well (and they are loaded on demand much...
