    Editing Telerik's Silverlight Controls in Expression Blend

    Along with the release of Telerik RadControls for Silverlight Beta 2, we also released a "blendable" Silverlight project. What I mean under "blendable" is that when this project is opened in Expression Blend, it allows you an easy and straightforward approach to editing the style of every control in out suite. To begin with, go to your Client.net account and download Telerik.Windows.Controls.Blend. Unzip the project anywhere and open the Telerik.Windows.Controls.Blend.sln files using Expression Blend.

    RadCalendar for ASP.NET (AJAX) localization and all the necessary to have culture independent automated tests

    First some background: Recently I’ve been working on an interesting task, which required digging into some details in RadCalendar control localization implementation.

The reason is that these tests expected some certain Calendar element values, which generally depend on the culture you run the control on. I took the challenge to investigate, implement the necessary methods and ...
