    Navigation for CoverFlow

    The Silverlight team decided to remove the ScrollBar control that used to be part of CoverFlow's control template. One of the reasons behind this decision is the easiness by which you can now, using Silverlight 3 element binding, create your own navigation. To learn more about all changes introduced by the beta version check my previous blog post here. This article explains in details how to create your own navigation using a range control, e.g. one that inherits from the RangeBase class. The first thing we need to do is to declare a CoverFlow control with some items in a straight-forward...

    Why doesn’t Telerik offer phone/IM support?

    Telerik is well known for the high quality of its support organization and customers are overall quite happy from our responsiveness and helpfulness. Nonetheless, from time to time we’d get inquiries why we are not offering phone support, chat or GoToMeeting as part of our regular support services. After answering several inquiries over the last few months, I decided to blog about it and let everyone know why technical phone support is not offered (at least at present).

    Common RadWindow issues and their solution

    The RadWindow control is part of the Telerik’s RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX suite and is intended to replace the standard browser’s popup (window.open()). Since the control is based on an IFRAME, it behaves just like one – basically, whatever can be done with an IFRAME, can be achieved with RadWindow as well. This fact is useful when you investigate a reason for some problem related to the RadWindow control. Just replace the RadWindow with a standard IFRAME or browser’s popup and see how your application will behave in this case. If the problem still exists, then it is not related to the...
