RadGridView provides a set of keyboard navigation scenarios that will result in certain consequence of commands to be executed. Thus – and naturally in this case - when clicking on the Del–button will cause deletion of the current item, Ins-button will add a new one into the grid. However, there exists a great possibility that you do not need this pre-coded behavior and you want to predefine it. In that case you can follow up one of the following two scenarios. The first one is to use the basic interface responsible for the keyboard navigation – IKeyboardCommandProvider and implement your own...

We are now in the middle between the Beta release of the Q2.2010 and the official one which will be available for download very soon. For the ones that missed the beta release - see the silverlight samples online. One of the major tasks for my team was to optimize the way the Rad Upload component for Silverlight is working. We separated our work in two main directions - improve the performance of the control and take advantage of the Silverlight4 features. The most requested feature from Silverlight 4 was to integrate the drag and drop support from the file system into the Rad Upload. Now...

Today Mozilla released FireFox 3.6.4, and in the new version plugins are isolated in their own process.  As such,  the VS debugger attaches to “firefox.exe” instead of the new process FireFox creates named “plugin-container.exe” when you start debugging a silverlight application.  There are 2 fairly easy fixes.   Fix 1 Manually attach the visual studio debugger to “plugin-container.exe”   Fix 2  This involves changing Firefox’s config, and really should only be done to ease silverlight debugging until a proper fix is released. Type "about:config" into FF's address bar Accept the warning (if applicable) Search for the entry "dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npctrl.dll" Change its value from "true" to "false" (double-click)...

New Document Formats First of all we will present the newly added import/export support for Html and Docx formats, which was among the most demanded features, because its heavy use for many business-oriented scenarios. Take a look at the screenshots below to...

A popular feature that is often requested is multi-touch scrolling in the RadGridView control. This is easily achievable in WPF, because of the new yummy System.Windows.Input.Manipulations namespace introduced in .NET 4.0. However, Silverlight has yet to receive such a high-level touch API. The only tool we have at our disposal is the System.Windows.Input.Touch class with its one member, the FrameReported event. Nevertheless, it gives us a lot of control when it comes to handling touch events. I used it to make a little behavior that enables touch scrolling. You can also scroll horizontally and by dragging the mouse (both options controlled...
