    Brand new Silverlight LOB sample application by Telerik

    We uploaded a brand new sample application developed by our senior evangelist Evan Hutnick. “The Telerik Legal Dashboard demo application was built utilizing real requirements from our customers in order to provide a rich and interactive data display.  This application provides both a managerial view, in which you can slice and dice data with RadDataFilter and get instant results in both RadGridView and RadChart, as well as an executive overview with a dropdown to select pre-defined dashboard views to provide quick access to information with a rich display” says Evan. You can view the demo at: http://demos.telerik.com/silverlight/legaldashboard/ It is also included in the...

    RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX – Custom Skins and Transparency!

    At the end of my previous blog post I mentioned that with Q2 2010 release we are starting to pay more attention to custom skinning of our controls. Along with the visual improvements we will be releasing additional scenario-specific and optimized themes.

    Silverlight Recruiting Application #7 - Utilizing INotifyDataErrorInfo

    As you may recall from my previous blog post, we're revamping this application and bring it to the latest and greatest that is available in Silverlight today.  Coincidentally, Q2 2010 SP1 just came out today (check your accounts!) and I figured the best first place to start would be with something I removed previously- validation. Since I redid the model for this application, I completely scrapped all of the previous validation because I knew I could now take advantage of using INotifyDataErrorInfo, which gives us a slightly more graceful way to handle asynchronous validation in our application.  I would explain all...

    Return of the Silverlight Recruiting Application

    It has been a while since I've had a nice, lengthy, code-a-riffic post on here so I wanted to start this off right.  By the title of this post I've already given up part of the surprise- I'm revisiting the Silverlight Recruiting Application and bringing it up to date.  For those of you that don't remember (or haven't seen this series), the concept behind this application was around a real world internal use here at Telerik.  More specifically, we keep growing and therefore our HR demands have grown, requiring something more robust than a very organized use of Excel and...
