    Disabling Full Row Selection in Vista Explorer

    One of the things that irritates me the most in Vista is the enabled by default Full Row Selection in Explorer. To see what I'm talking about open an Explorer window in Details View and try to select files with dragging a rectangle. I googled a bit and found that there is a solution for the problem: Under the key:  [HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]   Create a new REG_DWORD value named FullRowSelect. Leave it's data as 0x0 and you are set.   After some more digging, I found several scripts which will automatically set and unset this key for you: Keith Miller' Windows Stuff   I hope this helps....

    RadRotator binding to XML data

    As you already know, the upcoming RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX Q2 2008 release will add a new control to the suite - the RadRotator. If you are familiar with the RadRotator control from the classic ASP.NET controls suite, you will be glad to know that it is now included in the new Ajax suite as well.   One important change I would like to talk about is how the new rotator works with XML data. The classic rotator control had a property called ContentFile, which allowed the developer to specify a XML file to use as a datasource for the rotator frames....

    RadWindow for Silverlight

                  My first post for the Telerik blog community is already here. After I have been part of the Silverlight team for a while, I learned that there are two ways you can get noticed here.

    Placing 2D labels in a 3D scene

    Hello everyone, Since that is my first blog, I suppose a short introduction won't do a harm. My name is Evtim Papushev and I am Software Developer @ Telerik. I'm in the Charting division and I currently work on the new RadChart for WPF. Well, that's enough about me, now let's move to the today's topic.   Placing labels in a 3-dimensional scene isn't an issue at all. Well, at least technically, it is simple - place a 3D model, then set text box as diffuse material, set the texture coordinates and you are ready to roll. What such a solution lacks is business...

    [ReSharper] Directory name donates namespace Yes or No ?

    If you like us are passionate user of ReSharper you know that ReSharper "did not like" when a class' namespace did not correspond to the directory structure the file belongs to. To illustrate this lets look at a simple example. Imagine that we have a project named MyProject. By default its namespace is MyProject. Lets have a folder named MyControls in the project as well. Now lets add a class file in that folder, naming it "MyControl.cs". The default namespace that will be generated for the class will be MyProject.MyControls. It is constructed using the default namespace and joining it with the folder...
