    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...

    Converting L2S Model to OpenAccess Domain Model

    As you might or might not know for some time now we have been working on a tool that would make migrating from Linq2Sql to Telerik OpenAccess a breeze.

In a few simple steps I would like to explain both how to use the tool and the capabilities and important considerations you should know about. First of all for the purpose of demonstrating the converter, we will use this simple LINQ to SQL model : The model contains the following items...

    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 ...

    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 ...

    Following up from New England Code Camp 14

    Hey Telerik Developer Community!  If you are in the northeastern US (or even further, if you look at the speakers!), then you probably spent this past Saturday afternoon at New England Code Camp 14 for a day jam packed with great topics and conversations. I was able to present Building a Unified Experience - Developing with Silverlight 4 and Windows Phone 7 at NECC and had a great time of it- the audience seemed to get into the talk as well with tons of questions regarding the framework, the future of WP7, and the launch that we all know is coming...
