Hello everybody! I am Yavor Ivanov and I work in the DataVisualization team here at Telerik.  As Vladimir mentioned earlier in his blog post, the Q3 release focuses on dashboards and line of business applications and today I am happy to announce another result of this focus: the RadBulletGraph!     The Bullet Graph is created by Stephen Few and it is designed especially for dashboards. This little wonder is very data intensive and easy to read at the same time. In just one Bullet graph you can demonstrate both what your projected and your accomplished goals for a period are, specify qualitative...

With this short post I’ll explain how to achieve a functionality similar to the one shown bellow. Unable to display content. Adobe Flash is required.   The key to achieving this scenario is to use Behaviors. Start off by adding a reference to the System.Windows.Interactivity.dll which is located in: [WPF] C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Expression\Blend 3\Interactivity\Libraries\WPF\ [Silverlight] C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Expression\Blend\Silverlight\v4.0\Libraries\ (note: the location of the binary might be different on your machine) Then create a class called AutoScrollBehavior.cs using System; using System.Windows; using System.Windows.Controls; using System.Windows.Interactivity; using Telerik.Windows.Controls; using Telerik.Windows.Controls.DragDrop; #if SILVERLIGHT using EventManager = Telerik.Windows.EventManager; #endif namespace TreeView.AutoScroll { public class AutoScrollBehavior : Behavior<RadTreeView> { protected override void OnAttached() { ...

It has been a while since my last blog post on the topic but now that the Q3 2010 release is up and running, it is time to slow down a bit and restart my writing practice as well. The major highlight for the Data Visualization Team at Telerik for the past months was improving (enabling) the development of real-world business dashboard scenarios with the controls part of the RadControls suite. My colleague Vladimir already blogged about one of our newest additions (the RadSparkline set of controls) and we will be introducing RadBulletGraph in greater detail shortly as well but today I will focus your...

We all check the weather before we leave our homes, when planning our business trips, when we take our loved ones on vacation. The weather is something we talk about and we all have our own way of reacting to it as it more often than not it affects our mood. So how do we deal with it? We try to stay informed and the coolest way to do that is with the Telerik’s Weather Station application.     The Weather Station was designed to mimic a real world weather application. By navigating through the map-based user interface, you can both select some...

What's new in Telerik Minifier It is a huge pleasure to announce the release of Telerik’s new Minifier tool now featuring Xap file minification option. It has been a while since we have released the Assembly Minifier and now we bring the concept for minification and reducing the XAP file size to a new level. We have just released the new Telerik Minifier tool that now features Xap Minification to enable you prune and remove everything that your application does not need from the Telerik assemblies in the Xap. As a result, the size of your application's Xap file will be dramatically reduced. Behind the scenes it...
