RadControls for WPF, 2011.Q1 The most important controls in RadScheduleView are the GroupHeaders, AppointmentItems and TimeRulerItems.

Well, Q1 2011 introduces a much improved second version of this useful tool. What are the improvements? Unlike the previous version that supported reverse-mapped projects only, the new Upgrade Tool can convert projects built upon Reverse and forward-mapped projects. And the best part of it is that, besides the Visual Designer, is that it utilizes the updated full-featured Q1 2011 Fluent Mapping API to achieve this. To upgrade your existing project and continue your development with the...
