The first release of 2012 is already a fact and even though this Q has been shorter due to the shift in the release dates which Todd Anglin blogged about, we managed to include some long-awaited improvements and new features. The first and most important change is that RadRichTextBox now supports multiple sections in the document. To see how it works, you can open the Silverlight demo, choose the Page Layout tab from the RibbonUI and click “Breaks”. Inserting a section break will split the current section into two, providing the option to format the two parts differently. Section breaks are extremely...
Unless you missed it somehow, last week Microsoft released the public preview of Windows 8 along with the beta of Visual Studio 11.

And here they are: Visual Studio 11 Support Just install our WinForms suite on VS 11 and you will be immediately available to start working with our tools.

Q1 2012 brings yet another popular export format to the already rich set of TreeList features. This time, we added support for the Microsoft Excel format. The exported files are based on the binary BIFF standard and hereby they are fully compatible with virtually all versions of Microsoft Excel and most of the XLS BIFF compatible software. Another benefit is that you will be able to access the output file using the widely popular OleDB Jet provider.
Similar to the PDF export, you can apply custom styles in two different ways – using the built-in item styles (ItemStyle, HeaderStyle and the...
A blog by Chris Sells, VP of Tools & Frameworks at Telerik. (Original post here) The Consumer Preview of Windows 8 (aka the Win8 beta) is now

running inside a WMWare Workstation 8.0 virtual machine running on the
Windows 7 host OS running inside Boot...

The “What’s New in ASP.NET” webinar was last week, and during the event you guys kept a pretty steady flow of questions coming in – which I like!

So, below you’ll find all of the answers to said questions that were asked during the webinar. Keep in mind that your exact question might not be in here, but that’s because I aggregated similar questions and...
