Agile, ALM, and Telerik Tools
I don’t think that there is any disagreement that agile methods, stemming from the Agile Manifesto, have changed the way we build software and have lead to profoundly greater successful projects and balanced teams. Agile methods help teams and business bring into focus what is valuable and helps reduce waste by embracing high bandwidth team collaboration, continuous feedback processes, and ever evolving and emergent requirements and designs. A term you are going to see more and more of is “Application Lifecycle Management” (ALM). In fact, Microsoft has rebranded its entire Visual Studio Team System division to be Microsoft ALM. ... -

PerspectiveRotation and MappedLight Transitions preview of Telerik Q3 2010 - RadControls for Silverlight
Source Here is the beta preview of 2 highly customizable transitions we are releasing with Q3 2010. The PerspectiveRotationTransition uses 3D transformation to display its animations. You can set the direction, center and the easing of the rotation. When combined these settings can grant you live and impressive transitions. The MappedLightTransition blends each pixel from the old content with the new one. What is interesting there is that it uses a grayscale map to determine which pixels blend first and which go last. There is a lot of grayscale thumbs on the web and some may be found in the attached project. The pixel shader...May 27, 2021 3 min read -

Techniques for Creating a Hierarchical RadGridView for WinForms
Update (10/8/2010): With the Q2 2010 release, a few things changed in RadGridView's API. Most notably, the MasterGridViewTemplate property has been deprecated and replaced with the MasterTemplate property. Due to this, and other changes, I've decided to update this blog entry to contain the latest available information. A while back, I posted a video on Telerik TV explaining the different techniques you can use to create a hierarchical RadGridView (Please note that the video was recorded prior to Q2, so there may be a few minor differences between the RadGridView in the video and the one that is currently ...May 27, 2021 5 min read -

Twitter Authentication with TweetSharp and WinForms
A few weeks ago, I decided to spend some more time experimenting with the Twitter API and TweetSharp. If you missed my last blog entry about it, you can access it here. Last time I focused on creating a simple UserControl for ASP.NET that displayed recent tweets. It didn’t require any authentication and was actually quite simple to implement. This time around, I wanted to create a RadControls for WinForms based application that retrieved information about my accounts followers. This type of information is unfortunately not publically accessible through the API. You actually need to authenticate and log ...May 27, 2021 3 min read
