    How To: RadGridView for Silverlight row context menu in three simple steps

    To enable RadContextMenu for every grid data row you should do: 1) Handle RowLoaded event for the grid and create RadContextMenu: void RadGridView1_RowLoaded(object sender, RowLoadedEventArgs e) { if (!(e.Row is GridViewHeaderRow) && !(e.Row is GridViewNewRow)) { RadContextMenu rowContextMenu = new RadContextMenu(); // create menu StyleManager.SetTheme(rowContextMenu, StyleManager.GetTheme(RadGridView1)); // set menu Theme // create menu items rowContextMenu.Items.Add(new RadMenuItem() { Header = "Show row ID property value" }); ...

    Easy appointment styling with RadScheduler for ASP.NET AJAX

    Say you've assigned a resource to an appointment and you want to make it visually distinctive from the rest.  The resource can be anything - room, status, priority and so on. Until the Q1'09 release this required writing some code, but not any more. You can now define a set of resource filters that will apply a CSS class when a match is found. For example: <telerik:RadScheduler runat="server" ID="RadScheduler1" ...> <ResourceStyles> <telerik:ResourceStyleMapping Type="Calendar" Text="Development" ApplyCssClass="rsCategoryGreen" /> <telerik:ResourceStyleMapping Type="Calendar" Text="Marketing" ApplyCssClass="rsCategoryRed" /> <telerik:ResourceStyleMapping Type="Calendar" Text="Work" ApplyCssClass="rsCategoryOrange" /> </ResourceStyles></telerik:RadScheduler> .csharpcode, .csharpcode pre { font-size: small; color: black; font-family: consolas, "Courier New", courier, monospace; background-color: #ffffff; /*white-space: pre;*/ } .csharpcode pre { margin: 0em; } .csharpcode .rem { color: #008000; } .csharpcode .kwrd { color: #0000ff; } .csharpcode .str { color: #006080; } .csharpcode .op { color: #0000c0; } .csharpcode .preproc { color: #cc6633; } .csharpcode .asp { background-color: #ffff00; } .csharpcode .html { color: #800000; } .csharpcode .attr { color: #ff0000; } .csharpcode .alt { background-color: #f4f4f4; width: 100%; margin: 0em; } .csharpcode .lnum { color: #606060; } You can match resource's type, key and/or text. All matching rules will be applied. For your convenience, we've included a number of predefined styles: rsCategoryBlue...

    How To: Use WCF services with ASP.NET AJAX databound controls

    As you know RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX controls fully leverage .NET 3.5 and come with built-in support for LINQ, LinqToSQL, EntityDataSource, ADO.NET DataServices, and WCF Web Service. With Q1 2009 our online examples feature .NET 3.5 examples for all databound controls (Grid, Scheduler, ComboBox, Menu, TreeView, PanelBar). In this post I will guide you through the process of creating a RadComboBox which loads its items on demand using WCF services. This will be a step by step tutorial, but if you are familiar with the process you can jump directly to the online demo. The steps below show how to load the items of RadComboBox...

    How To: Save and load settings with RadGridView for Silverlight

    I’ve made another demo (similar to this one) on how to save and restore various RadGridView settings using IsolatedStorageFile and DataContractSerializer. Again to turn on this for your grid you can simply set RadGridViewSettings.IsEnabled attached property: <UserControl x:Class="SaveLoadSettingsWithRadGridViewForSilverlight.Page"    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"    xmlns:telerik="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView"     xmlns:ts="clr-namespace:Telerik.Settings">     <Gridx:Name="LayoutRoot"Background="White">         <telerik:RadGridView ts:RadGridViewSettings.IsEnabled="True" x:Name="RadGridView1" />     </Grid> </UserControl> ...
