Some time ago when we announced our WPF charting effort a we received some feedback about the design of the control. At such an early stage of the control's development we were more interested in presenting the technical merits of the component rather than flashing some eye candy to please our customers. Well, development is moving on smoothly and now is the time to finally show some eye candy - and boy, don't I just love eye candy! :) The saying goes that a picture is worth a thousand words so I'm posting some preliminary designs for the "Ice" theme our designers...

Well, someone finally did it! They've put a web browser in a pokémon ball! The Internet is awash with blogs posts about Google chrome which just a few hours ago became available for download. I'm not going to just repeat whatever is in the Google chrome comic book. If you haven't seen it go do it now. I am, however, going to tell you just how happy this new browser makes me. And no, it is not the warm colors or the pokemon ball thing :) Google Chrome is just a great browser. It is very very fast, includes a slick minimalistic UI,...

I am really excited to announce the newly updated Documentation page about RadControls for Silverlight. Currently, you can directly open and browse the newly added Online Help or download the latest CHM file containing the same topics. We will be surely enhancing the content of the help files so that the users could find there most of the answers they are looking for. Our goal is to provide a wide range of topics - from simple "how-to" articles to advanced and complicated topics about our controls for Silverlight.
