You read that right!  In Q3 2010 OpenAccess ORM introduced new SQL Spatial Type support.  Which is awesome for those of us that love playing with spatial data :)  I started playing around with the new OA spatial support, and decided what better way to to demonstrate the capabilities than to output the data on to a map?  This blog covers how I accomplished this task :)   First We Need Spatial Data Some of you may already have spatial data sitting in a SQL Server DB, but if not never fear!   You can use the great Shp2Sql utility, made by Morten Nielsen, to import a...

Quite often TreeView is used in scenarios where a particular item should be displayed on the screen. You may want to display some item when the tree is initially shown on the screen or when a new item is added. These scenarios look simple but are a bit tricky because you have to wait until the TreeView loads and then make your desired actions. Waiting for Loaded Event TreeView provides the BringIntoView functionality in several forms: you can call BringIntoView from the tree itself and bring a child item; get some TreeViewItem by calling GetItemByPath and call BringIntoView upon this item container;...

function onSilverlightError(sender, args) { var appSource = ""; if (sender != null && sender != 0) { appSource = sender.getHost().Source; } var errorType = args.ErrorType; var iErrorCode = args.ErrorCode; if (errorType == "ImageError" || errorType == "MediaError") { return; } var errMsg = "Unhandled Error in Silverlight Application " + appSource + "\n" ; errMsg += "Code: "+ iErrorCode + " \n"; errMsg += "Category: " + errorType + " \n"; errMsg += "Message: " + args.ErrorMessage + " \n"; if (errorType == "ParserError") { errMsg += "File: " + args.xamlFile + " \n"; errMsg += "Line: " + args.lineNumber + " \n"; errMsg += "Position: " + args.charPosition + " \n"; } else if (errorType == "RuntimeError") { if (args.lineNumber != 0) { errMsg += "Line: " + args.lineNumber + " \n"; errMsg += "Position: " + args.charPosition + " \n"; } errMsg += "MethodName: " + args.methodName + " \n"; } throw new Error(errMsg); } Today I'm going to show you a very simple way to turn any ContentControl or a ListBox control into an AdRotator control. "What is AdRotator control?", you would ask. A common definition for an AdRotator is a control that lets you to show some data (most commonly ads) and change it periodically. An AdRotator control should be a control that lets you do that out-of-the-box without writing any code. Furthermore, switching the ads with a nice animation will give our AdRotator more polished and glamorous look. To accomplish this, we are going to use RadTransitionControl (a ContentControl) and RadCoverFlow (a ListBox)...

    In this post I will demonstrate how to extend the Drag Drop functionality of the RadDragAndDropManager adding command support by using the attached behaviors extensibility. That way one can easily move the logic for the operation from the code behind into your model and work only with the Data object. To demonstrate the idea I will use scenario where items are being dragged between ListBoxes.   The behavior transforms the Drag Drop events into commands. It exposes the following properties: - DragCommand – executed when dragInfo event is raised. - DropCommand – executed when dropInfo event is raised. - DragCueTemplate – data template that defines the dragcue...

The Open Data Protocol – the other Microsoft data access strategy along with WCF RIA Services, did not gain as much as popularity as its RIA cousin (yet!). But here in Telerik we want to give you as much freedom and power as possible and this means making it extremely easy for our clients to access and manipulate their data in applications built with our components. Our RadDomainDataSource is coming soon, but is only one piece in the puzzle of enhanced data support in our controls – starting with RadControls for Silverlight and RadControls for WPF Q3 2010 it’s as simple as pie...
