Use Cases The new Backstage view might be used in cases where you want to achieve more native Office 2010 look and feel for your application. The user can have three types of items in the Backstage Navigation. The three types can be... -

Using Silverlight's easing functions when expanding/collapsing items in TreeView and PanelBar
With the upcoming Q1 2011 Beta release, we’ve decided to sugarcoat RadTreeView and RadPanelBar even more. With the release of Silverlight 3, Microsoft introduced easing functions which are basically “custom mathematical formulas to your animations. For example, you may want an object to realistically bounce or behave as though it were on a spring.” Incorporating easing functions within RadTreeView or RadPanelBar can be done using Telerik’s AnimationManager: -

New TFS Sync Features in TeamPulse 2010 Q3 SP2
With the latest TeamPulse service pack we have added three exciting new features for TFS synchronization. You can now use a TFS query to sync a subset of the work items in your TFS project, sync one TFS project to multiple TeamPulse projects, and schedule synchronization. Using a TFS Query Previously, if you synchronized a project with TFS, you had no choice but to sync all the work items that were in that TFS project to TeamPulse (well, all the work item types that were mapped that is). For instance, if you were synchronizing an Agile project, you had ...May 27, 2021 2 min read -

RadJumpList for WP7: Part III - Performance with large data
Download the sample project In the previous two posts I explained the e basic usage and the support for dynamic sorting/filtering and grouping in RadJumpList. Now it is time(1) to see how the control behaves with large data sets. It is unlikely that in an average Windows Phone 7 application you will need to show more that 1,000-2,000 items, but we decided to test the performance under extreme conditions with a large set of 10,000 items. The setup of the example is pretty simple - we are generating 5k items on the fly and them bind the JumpList control to the data set. In the sample you can... -

RadJumpList for WP7: Part II - Dynamic Sort, Filter and Group
Download the sample code of the example. In my previous post I explained the basic usage of the RadJumpList control and how to display the data by using declarative sort and group descriptors. Now in part two you will see how to give your users the ability to modify the sorting, grouping and filtering on the fly. There is no out of the box UI for these data operations provided in this version of the control. We are still not sure what will be the preferred way of implementing this from a UX perspective and how to align it with the Metro guidelines. So for the moment we... -

TileView new feature: Maximized item docking
With the Q1 2011 the RadTileView will support a couple of new features. One of them is the Windows 7 like docking for maximizing an item. To use this feature will be easy and intuitive. The first thing you'll have to do is turn it on using the IsDockingEnabled property, then drag an item to the desired maximize position(note that depending on the position a respective MaximizeArea will appear) and drop it there. Example Here I'll show you how to create a simple RadTileView with docking. First let's add a RadTileView, some DataTemplates and styles for the RadTileView and the RadTileViewItems: <Grid.Resources> <DataTemplate x:Key="itemTemplate"> <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal"> <TextBlock Text="Item" /> <TextBlock Text="{Binding... -

Virtualized TileView for Silverlight and WPF, different sizes, automatic scrolling and much more.
With the Q1 2011 release just being around the corner a new and amazing version of RadTileView will be available. It is sleek, fast and more responsive than ever and it brings a whole set of new features and functionality to the table. Download and play with the new bits . Virtualization The main feature, that I’m sure you’d like most is the UI Virtualization (delaying the creation of UI Elements). We implemented it in both tiling scenarios: Restored – this includes both directions - Horizontal and Vertical . It means that if you have 10 columns x 1000 rows you'll get 10 000 tiles and you’ll see both scrollbars.... -

RadJumpList for WP7: Part I - Introduction and Simple usage
Download the source code of the example Last week we released our first beta of the Telerik Windows Phone 7 control toolkit. One of the new controls there is RadJumpList. It is a fundamental control for building data driven WP7 applications. We invested a lot into our data engine story - we have our own internal CollectionViewSource implementation which allows you to sort, filter and group your data with a single line of code (more on the data engine in this in-depth blog post). Apart from the data engine we also built a high performance ListBox control. RadDataBoundListBox is a virtualized ListBox control which has two major features: can display...
