Programmatically Exporting Telerik Reports to PDF and Other Formats
As many of you know, Telerik Reporting is incredibly versatile. Using it, you can create a single report, then take that one report and display it in Silverlight, WPF, WinForms, or ASP.NET using one of our four available report viewers. Recently, however, I've noticed that people are interested in exporting reports without even displaying a report viewer at all. I am happy to let you know that Telerik Reporting indeed supports this exact scenario. I suppose you could consider it a "5th" way of viewing reports if you wanted. Setting up Telerik Reporting to export reports programmatically is actually quite ...May 27, 2021 3 min read -

Custom RadMap Provider for Q1 2011
Since Q1 2011 and the newest release of the RadMap several changes were made to the control. Presently it is possible to specify several tile providers that will be displayed one over the other through the RadMap.Providers property. If your Map sources have tile size different from the default one (256x256) then all these sources must use the same tile size. For example if you want to have a satellite source with tile size 300x300 and a road source, the last one must use this tile size as well. If your map source uses a tile size different from the... -

Exporting Telerik Reports to PowerPoint Presentation (Q1 2011)
One of the greatest new features in Telerik Reporting Q1 2011 is the PowerPoint Presentation Rendering Extension, which produces a PowerPoint Presentation file from any Telerik report. The new rendering extension is part of the newly introduced support for the Office Open XML standard which meets “the new workplace challenges that include easily moving data between disparate applications, and allowing users to glean business insight from that data." (Source: MSDN). Supporting the Office Open XML standard also means that Telerik Reporting can export its reports not only to Microsoft Office PowerPoint, but to Word, and Excel 2007/2010. The native Office Open XML support means that any document suite,... -

Rethinking Agile Methodologies Part III: Moving away from Scrum
See also: Part I: How I started to use Scrum Part II: Scrum, but In Part I we looked at how I first got into Agile and Scrum. Last week in Part II, we explored how Scrum failed to be flexible enough to fit into my unique process. Today we will take a look at how I got introduced to Kanban. The start-up I worked at a few years ago that I described in Part II successfully used Scrum for traditional software development, however, when we were faced with a pretty unique development requirement, Scrum failed us. To refresh your memory from Part II, we had to spider thousands... -

RadControls for WPF, 2011.Q1 We will start with the project from the previous post: DOWNLOAD: RadScheduleView_GroupHeaderTemplates.zip And will produce the following project that has its timeruler items modified: DOWNLOAD: RadScheduleView_TimeRulerItemTemplates.zip Using the GroupHeaderContentTemplateSelector you can bind to the resource data. In the time ruler this is not the case. The time ruler items present date information and at this time they can’t be modified through items source property. We will create an inline template selector and discuss some of the TimeRulerItem DataTemplates. Converting the TimeRulerItemTemplateSelector to Local Value Select the RadScheduleView, go to the “Styling” section in the “Properties” tab and click the rectangle near the “TimeRulerItemTemplateSelector” property.

TimeRulerItems and GroupHeaders in RadScheduleView
RadControls for WPF, 2011.Q1 The most important controls in RadScheduleView are the GroupHeaders, AppointmentItems and TimeRulerItems. While the AppointmentItems does not vary much RadScheduleView introduces several different uses of the GroupHeaders and TimeRulerItems. Styles Compared to DataTemplates for GroupHeaders and TimeRulerItems The GroupHeaders and TimeRulerItems appearance can be modified through DataTemplates and Styles. The DataTemplate can be changed by editing the GroupHeaderContentTemplateSelector for GroupHeaders and TimeRulerItemTemplateSelector for TimeRulerItems. The DataTemplates can be used to modify the content presentation but modifying the visual appearance of the overall control may be limited. For example you can change the time string formats in both the GroupHeaders...May 27, 2021 1 min read -
Web ASP.NET AJAX
How to enable keyboard support in the RadFileExplorer for ASP.NET AJAX
With the newest version already out, I am happy to present you the latest accessibility improvements of our RadFileExplorer control from the ASP.NET AJAX suite. Now, you don't need the mouse to delete a folder or open a file! Simply focus the FileExplorer, navigate to the grid or treeview using the [Shift+]Tab key, select the desired folder with the Arrow keys and press Delete. A popup dialog asks you to confirm the deletion. Hit Enter to delete, or Esc to cancel. This was just an example of a common scenario, that could be carried out using the keyboard only. We have ensured that any use case... -
