RadMessageBox for WinForms
Hello folks. I am sure all of us are enjoying with Telerik’s good looking and reach theming mechanism for WinForms. But in every application there is a need for user interaction and very often it uses some type of question or message to guide the user what he is supposed to do. I am sure that you have used the default WinForms MessageBox class and its Show method The standard appearance of this message box, however, does not fit nicely in the slick design of an application built with RadControls for WinForms, and I know how boring it is to implement your own... -

Enhancing Your WinForms UI with HTML-like Formatting
Until recently our Windows Forms offering didn’t have support for HTML-like rich text formatting, so typical for web applications. With the Q3 release shipped on November 5 this has changed. This release of RadControls for WinForms has the HTML-like formatting capabilities on a framework level. What does it mean? Well, as of now every VisualElement descendent is capable of rich text formatting - Labels, Buttons, RadCalendar, RadGridView, etc. The implementation is very simple, especially if your users are familiar with HTML. To turn on the rich formatting behavior you must begin your text with an <html> tag; use <size=[+|-]value> to set... -

Not only does Telerik.com get a lot of traffic, but it also contains a TON of content (product information, demos, support articles, forum posts, etc.). To support this task we needed a... -

RadControls for WinForms in Telerik Trainer
Recently there was a question posted on the Telerik forums asking if there were plans to include some Telerik Trainer videos for the RadControls for WinForms. The timing of this question was great since there was already a video being produced on this very topic. If you haven't experienced the Telerik Trainer, you are missing out. It presents video content on a given topic with the ability to jump to any part of that video via the Table of Contents. Additionally, when there is code being presented as part of the video the Telerik Trainer allows you open the code for...May 27, 2021 1 min read -

Chameleon skinning coming up to WinForms in Q3 2008
I know many of you like our WinForms "Desert" theme: I like it very much too. But I've been using it for quite some time and it started to kind of bore me. I just wish it wasn't so orange-ish. Then I got impressed by the UI of Windows Live's set of desktop applications, which have the cool option to change the skin color - on the fly: Its very neat and I just can't get bored using this kind of UI. Our Windows Form components on the other hand have a very extensible way of skinning, but still, you are...May 05, 2025 2 min read
