    Storing User Docking preferences

        Many times in an application you want your user to have the ability to set preferences.  This extends to a variety of settings, but what about the interface itself?  If you are using the DockingManager you can give the user the ability to modify the layout of existing DockPanels and store it for them.  Why would you want to let the user change the layout?  Every person is different and most people enjoy having the option of customizing an application.  This can be as simple as having a tool window on the right of the screen instead of the...

    RadControls for Silverlight Demo with ADO.NET Data Services

    Yesterday I wrote about how to databind RadTreeView for Silverlight to ADO.NET Data Service and use Load on Demand. The simple application from yesterday was upgraded to a small back-end application for the Northwind database, that allows editing and deleting products. This time I decided to give it to one of our designers and our new Silverlight front end developer and they implemented this slick design: The application is available online: http://demos.telerik.com/silverlight/northwindbackend/Default.aspx The source code can be downloaded from here: NorthwindBackend.zip In addition to yesterday's application, NorthwindBackend has extended data source, that provides simple undo mechanism and ability to update and delete products...

    Silverlight TreeView Load on Demand

    Today I created a really simple application that demonstrates "best practice" for using RadTreeView with load on demand and ADO.NET Data Service. The application uses the Northwind database, that can be downloaded here. The tricky part is that in order to create almost codeless application we need to modify the automatically generated code of the service reference. To do that you will need to show all files in the Silverlight application (click the Show All Files in the Solution Explorer title bar) and then open Reference.cs: In this file replace all occurrences of "System.Collections.ObjectModel.Collection" with "System.Collections.ObjectModel.ObservableCollection". This probably will be changed in...

    Page Navigation for Silverlight 2 RC0

    Hi my name is Boryana Miloshevska and  I’m a member of  Telerik`s Silverlight team. This is my first blog post and it is about the new RadPageNavigation framework that we just released  for Silverlight 2 RC0. RadPageNavigation is a framework that allows you to easily add navigation service to your application. To do that you can use the provided RadPage, RadFrame, RadFrameContainer and NavigationService classes, or you can use your own classes to implement the IFrame and ITransition interfaces. The framework is 100%  compatible with the WPF navigation service. Navigation between pages is supported. You can also use frames inside each page and to...

    Create a Tabbed MDI using child forms

    If you are developing applications for Windows it is almost certain that you have incorporated the Multiple Document Interface (MDI) at some point. This is where you have a parent form that acts as the host for all forms within the application, minus a few exceptions. I know there are debates about whether MDI is an effective approach, but it doesn’t change the fact that MDI is very heavily used. I have found that the Tabbed Document Interface which is essentially an MDI that implements tab navigation between open items is pretty popular. As a matter of fact, this same...
