Instead, these users need to be treated with the utmost attention. To get the feedback you have three ways to go: 1)    Use the error reporting procedure on App Hub, but you’ll have to wait for 3 to 4 days for the crash reports to be ready, which may result in losing some of  your users. 2)    Put some time and efforts and write the functionality yourself. 3)    Use Telerik ready-to-use Error Diagnostics control that allows...

    XAMLflix Introduces RadTreeView

    Hello everyone and welcome back to XAMLflix with RadTreeView for Silverlight and WPF. I hope you have been enjoying the series as last week we took a look at RadZipLibrary and RadTileView.

While part of it is the good old XAML, there are plenty of other unique features, one of them being the DirectX integration at XAML level. While XAML is a great technology and offers literally unlimited features regarding layout and UI richness, sometimes there are cases where we need to push the framework beyond its limits in order to achieve highly-performing components with responsive and fluid user interaction.
