Batch editing is a new type of inline editing which brings the editing experience of RadGrid closer to this of Excel. Upon a click/double-click (whatever the developer specifies), the user will be able to open the cell for editing and edit as many cells as they like. By hitting the Save button just once, all their changes will be preserved.
Routers are powerful tools in Single Page Applications, and Kendo UI's
router provides an API to wrap up this power.
But the API hides a lot of potential complexity and performance
issues if you're not careful. Calling the navigate method
without regard for the current context of the application and whether
or not that context is changing can result in unwanted re-rendering
of the entire application. This can reduce the responsiveness of the
app, waste time re-drawing content that isn't changing, and cause a
lot of flickering on the screen - and none of this is desirable
from a user's perspective.
This is Part 3 of a four part series where we explore some of the tools available to detect and manage online/offline connectivity in web/mobile applications. In Part 1 we looked at the available APIs for detecting connectivity state (and the woes associated with them). In Part 2 we wrote a hand-rolled abstraction to manage using these APIs together and began to see elements of a state machine emerge from the chaos. In this post we're going to drive the state machine stake deeper by exploring how we can keep our FSMs from violating SRP, and set the stage for using multiple FSMs together to model more complex application behavior.
Did you remember to join the Icenium Summer 2013 keynote yesterday? Thousands of you did, and to you, a big THANK YOU again for spending an hour with us. We had a great time showing all of the latest improvements in Icenium, introducing Icenium Everlive backend services, and showing a "sneak peek" of our upcoming support for custom Cordova plug-ins. Hopefully you learned something new and are more excited about building hybrid mobile apps!
This blog post intends to provide information on the newly added RibbonBarGallery as well as the improved ApplicationMenu that comes with the Q2 2013 of the Telerik’ ASP.NET AJAX controls. Here you can find how to use the new additions as well as the improved ones.
Check out all of the new and improved features just released in the 2013 Q3 Beta for RadControls for Windows 8 HTML! Plus a couple of goodies you never saw coming!
The timeline has become a ubiquitous part of our user experience. It started with Facebook and Twitter, and now Pinterest and the Google+ interface have given us a new take on the same concept: display a list of items to the user. As they scroll down the page, add in the next batch of items. Sometimes those new items are added automatically (ala "endless scrolling"), and often there is a "push to load more" button, like in Instagram's new website.
