    New Filtering Menu for RadGrid for ASP.NET AJAX

    Hi everyone, As of Q1 2010 RadGrid will be equipped with a new filtering menu – a powerful and flexible feature the interest in which was sparked by RadGrid’s MVC counterpart offered by Telerik. It will be a sub-part of RadGrid's header context menu and will allow for filtering the grid's data on two conditions related with a logical AND operator: Perhaps, many of you are already eager to know how the new feature should be switched on/off. For this purpose a new property has been introduced into the RadGrid control -RadGrid.EnableHeaderContextFilterMenu/GridTableView.EnableHeaderContextFilterMenu. In addition, it is important that RadGrid.EnableHeaderContextMenu/ GridTableView.EnableHeaderContextMenu and RadGrid.AllowFilteringByColumn/GridTableView.AllowFilteringByColumn properties be...

    Rating column for RadGrid for ASP.NET AJAX

    Here is yet another handy column type coming for RadGrid. The GridRatingColumn will show a RadRating control for every data item in your RadGrid, both in view and edit mode. GridRatingColumn will support 2 modes of interaction. In the standard mode, GridRatingColumn will behave like an ordinary editable column. It will display a read-only RadRating control when the item is in view mode and an editable RadRating control when in edit mode. Alternatively, the rating column will allow you to change the rating value even in view mode. Thus, when RadGrid posts back, you can get the updated value on the server...

    Embedding YouTube video in RadListView for ASP.NET AJAX

    Have you ever thought of embedding a YouTube video in the context of a data-bound control? Recently, a client of ours asked for such a demo and this inspired me to create a code-library project that features this scenario and uses RadListView for ASP.NET AJAX as ‘videos host’. Depending on your goal, you can control the player via JavaScript code or you can just embed a static object. In the latter case you will need something like this: 1: <object width="425" height="344"> 2: <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/QT0e5XqNZdo&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b"></param> ...

    RadEditor dialogs - what's new in the Q1 2010 release

    As usual, the next major update of the RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX will be packed with exciting new features. Unfortunately, this means that some performance related optimizations will be left in the background, which is why I want to present one of them here. The Q1 2010 release will add a new property for the RadEditor's RadDialogOpener control - EnableTelerikManagers. When it set to true and you have a RadScriptManager or a RadStyleSheetManager on the page, the editor dialogs will start using these controls as well. The main benefit from the script and stylesheet managers is faster loading speed - due to less...
