The WinForms team has been hard at work on the new RadDock control since the beginning of the year. Things are coming together and I will be presenting a webinar this Thursday, 11 a.m. Eastern time, to preview the control. You will get a first look at the new RadDock control and we will even discuss how easy it will be to port to the new RadDock. I hope you will make some time to join me to see what’s coming and provide feedback on what you would like to see. The new and improved RadDock for WinForms is coming and...
