It’s been a while since the Q3 2009 release. Lots of controls have been added in our toolbox for WPF. One of them is considered as a final official release of RadDocking control for WPF. We have made a lot of improvements since the last release of the controls. For example each of the six themes included in the bundle now has different type of appearance when applied to a control. RadDocking is a fully customizable and skinnable control that enhances the power of a layout system. It is providing you with a docking system like the one in Microsoft Visual Studio. You are getting the dockable ToolWindows, a hidden DockingManager control, and a designer to easily create attractive layouts. It is good to mention that the WPF RadDocking code is absolutely compatible with its Silverlight counterpart.

Ability to change the way a page is flipped i.e. flip a page on a single click, double click or simply forbid page flipping. Ability to define...

We have recently introduced a new feature  in RadScheduler for Silverlight/WPF -  Resource Grouping. Now I will tell you more about how to customize the look and feel of the appointments in every resource group including the header of this group. All you have to do is set a ResourceStyleMapping object associated with every resource:   Using this object you can set the following properties: ResourceName - the name of the resource that should be associated with this style ResourceType - the name of the type, to which the resource belongs ResourceBrush - the value of this property is used to set color of the header of the resource...
