    Sales Dashboard Application for Windows Forms

    Shortly after the Q3 2009 release we developed the Sales Dashboard Application for Windows Forms - a composite business application for visualizing a company’s sales force performance. It is built with the Q3 2009 versions of Telerik’s WinForms components, RadChart for WPF, Telerik OpenAccess ORM, and implements the Telerik CAB Enabling Kit for WinForms, which helps in the development of smart-client line-of-business (LOB) applications. Since the interest in this application is still high, we felt the need to have a dedicated place to discuss this application. In case you have not played with it yet, download the source code, and enjoy!   Also check: Silverlight/WPF Sales...

    Making a Step chart in RadChart for Silverlight and WPF

    So a customer emailed into our office yesterday asking about whether RadChart for Silverlight supported a Step chart type.  Well, while we do have a boatload of chart types already, Step is currently not one of them.  But a Step chart is really just a Line chart with a bit of extra work, right?  With the help of our chart wizard Manol, we were able to show that the LineSeriesDefinition could, in fact, replicate a Step chart.  But that was with setting all points manually and took a bit of thinking to make sure all the steps looked right.  So...

    Performance Monitor using RadChart for WinForms

    I have had a few people ask me about using the RadChart in the same manner as Performance Monitor (aka PerfMon). If you are not familiar with PerfMon, it is a tool that has been provided with Microsoft Windows for quite some time. You can open PerfMon by clicking the Start button within Windows, typing “perfmon” in the search box and pressing Enter.  PerfMon is a simple utility that displays performance counters. There are a wide variety of counters available, from CPU utilization of process threads to how many times the .NET Garbage Collector has run. The counters PerfMon allows...

    WPF / Silverlight: RadChart PointMark Customization

    RadChart supported point mark visual indicators for chart series like Line, Area, Spline, etc. from version one, however, customization of these indicators was hard and certainly not for the faint-hearted. With the latest version of the control released this week (Q1 2009 SP1) we introduced two major improvements that significantly simplify the interaction with the point mark indicators.   Option 1: Customizing the appearance of the point marks through the PointMark API and predefined point mark shapes RadChart supports 8 predefined shapes that you can use for the point marks (members of the Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting.MarkerShape enumeration): Circle (default) Diamond Hexagon Triangle Square SquareRounded StarFiveRay StarEightRay   Here is a sample code snippet that demonstrates...
