    Introducing the TouchScrollExtender in Q3 2010

Meet the TouchScrollExtender The TouchScrollExtender is a small self-sustained client-only control that depends only on core.js and the built-in jQuery in RadControls for ASP.NET...

    RadControls for Windows Phone 7: Introducing RadWindow

    Graphical user interfaces are rife with popups and messages springing from every direction in order to notify users of important information. The Windows Phone 7 experience is no different and RadWindow is here to provide this functionality.

The main reason is that the stock popup is not hardware accelerated, that is, animations on UI elements displayed on it are executed on the UI thread, it doesn’t matter if the animation is a simple double animation, if you...

    Q3 2010 Object-Relational Hierarchy with RadGridView for WinForms

    [You can see all new hierarchy modes of RadGridView in this week’s webinar. See details and register >>] More and more developers are using ORM frameworks like Telerik OpenAccess, Entity Framework, and NHibernate to save valuable time from writing dependent and synchronization code for the database server. In many cases it is often necessary to create complex custom business objects that contain the object relations to support the different needs of the application like serialization (database, file storage, online service) and transactions. In many of these scenarios the developers are looking for a convenient and quick way to visualize the data and...
