That is why one of our main goals is to continuously improve it and satisfy our clients’ requests for new and useful features. We keep that tradition with Q3 2012, by introducing two very powerful features: Format Painter much like the one you've seen in MS Word® The end user can utilize the FormatPainter tool to copy formatting from a piece of text and apply it to others in the content area of RadEditor.

    What's new in Q3.2012 RadDiagram for XAML

    [Original post on the Orbifold's blog] Whenever we plan a new release we try to navigate between several stakeholders; the customer requests (features, ideas, bugs), demands by our own Telerik teams (not the least,Telerik JustTrace), the ever changing landscape of technology (should I mention Windows 8 and JavaScript?) and, finally, our own aspirations and visions. Trying to find a compromise between these poles and tailoring it to time and resources is both exciting and difficult, as every project manager knows I guess. Despite the fact that we so often impose ourselves quite a challenge I'm always impressed near release time that...

    How to Create a JustCode Extension

    I wrote about creating JustCode extensions when it was a new feature, and we have improved it based upon our experiences and your feedback. To get started, open the Create New Project dialog and navigate to the Telerik options under Installed. Select C# Visual Studio JustCode Extension. The previous project type, C# JustCode extension, is still available for backwards compatibility. Give your new extensions project a name, choose the location, then press OK. A project is created based on our new template. It has several example extensions included to help guide you. The difference with the old approach is that instead of building...

    Working with Report Templates in the Report Designer

    The Report templates in Telerik Reporting hold the initial report layout and styling, and allow for creating reports with consistent look and feel. They save time by skipping the repetitive tasks associated with building a new report every time, so that users can focus on the specific requirements of the new report. These tasks may include setting page sizes, connecting to data sources, defining headers and footers (such as adding a logo and page numbers), as well as styling. In Q3 2012 you can create, load, and reuse such report templates in the standalone Report Designer. Creating a Report Template is...
