    Design your RadCarousel with just drag & drop in Q2

    While we are currently polishing the new RadCarousel features, I thought that some of them look pretty exciting and you may be anxious to have a sneak peek. A great new feature of RadCarousel that saved tons of time is the ability to define an ellipse or a bezier path for animating carousel items by just dragging the carousel path points around in the designer. The new carousel designer does not only display a preview of the path items follow, but also allows you to grab a point from the path and drag it around in your Form designer. Imagine how...

    Introducing RadForm for WinForms

    Hey everyone. The other day, I was responding to requests for more information on how to use the new RadForm, and I felt like we’re not being proactive enough in showcasing what our product has to offer. I’d love our customers to use our product to their maximum advantage, and I realize we have an important role to play to facilitate that. In this respect, I’d like to say a few words about one of our newest additions to the control suite – RadForm. RadForm is an alternative to the standard Windows form. It offers you all the standard form functionality...

    RadGridView for WinForms unleashed

    Hello everyone, my name is Kiril Matev and I'm a software developer for the Windows Forms team at Telerik. We're all pretty excited about the newly reengineered RadGridView, which is a part of our Q1 2008 release, and I’d like to highlight a couple of features you might find useful. So far, you had to always construct a data source, initialize its columns, and rows, and then bind it to the RadGridView. However, many simpler scenarios demand just adding, editing and removing rows using the API directly. This so-called unbound mode for the RadGridView has long been a must-have feature for many of our customers. We had the opportunity to provide...
