    See what's new in RadControls for WinForms Q3 2012 SP1

    Earlier this week, Telerik Dev Labs released yet another pack of updates for our WinForms UI components. Q3'12 Service Pack 1 for RadControls for WinForms brings with it a number of exciting new features – particularly around our data manipulation controls. Only a few weeks following its beta release, we enhanced RadPivotGrid with built-in support for data binding to an OLAP cube. Furthermore, we packed two new modern UI skins, one of which was inspired by Visual Studio 2012 and the other one helps you deliver even better touch user experience in your WinForms apps. Of course, the latest update also includes a bunch of bug fixes and performance enhancements based on the valuable feedback you provided. Keep reading to take a glimpse into the highlights listed below. Read more >>

Since you use Visual Studio for your development environment, we want to ensure our tools integrate for a seamless experience.

This is, of course, a very important and often overlooked feature. For Q3 2012, we decided to improve the way in which JustCode approaches shortcuts by creating keyboard shortcuts profiles and related enhancements. The purpose of JustCode’s keyboard shortcuts profiles Before the introduction of keyboard shortcuts profiles, JustCode only had one predefined set of shortcuts for its commands.
