Yesterday I mentioned Telerik was nominated for 3 Best-of-TechEd award. As you might have read on our CEO blog, late last night Telerik was awarded Best of TechEd award in Components and Middleware category. Coming on heels of CodeProject award for the best Silverlight suite I wrote about yesterday, this was certainly nice recognition of the work we have put in all of our component suites. And…..it was worth a celebration It was also a fun day for Telerik fans. TechEd-ers who wore Telerik t-shirt on Monday were awarded with a nice (and educational from what I hear) trip to Louisiana swamps....
I am proud to announce the immediate availability of our Q2 2010 Preview (Beta, version 2010.2 609) release. It contains the new controls, features and tools we plan to officially announce in July. This Beta version of RadControls for Silverlight contains only natively built assemblies on Silverlight 4 as our major new controls and features will be built only on Silverlight 4 from now on. We also included assemblies built against WPF 4 in this Beta release and they are available under the Beta download files along with the installation of our WPF 3.5 controls. RadControls for Silverlight - Download Trial Version and over...
Wow, this is a big achievement and we are extremely proud of it. This is perhaps the culmination, in terms of public recognition, of several years of intense R&D and the result of our “Best of breed” strategy. While many vendors focus on breadth, our goal has always been to be the leaders – from the smallest component to the complete experience of using a suite that spans over the whole .NET stack. Thanks to all customers for the endless support and patience. We couldn’t have done it without you. As usual, we can only promise that this award will not...
Great news! Cell selection will be among the new features that we are going to introduce with Q2 2010. I guess many of you have been waiting for this feature for quite some time now and the wait is almost over. You can give this new feature a try by downloading the beta version of RadControls for WPF/Silverlight Q2 2010. Let me guide you through the new API. We have added a new property called SelectionUnit which specifies what units are selected when you are interacting with the grid. Currently the SelectionUnit enumeration has two possible values – Cell or FullRow. FullRow represents the...
Telerik won the “Best of TechEd” award in the

in New Orleans, LA. Our premium collection was judged as the most innovative and
best value over all the other vendors.

to live up to our customers high expectations. (If you are still at TechEd, swing
by the booth and take a look at the award, we are here until 3pm today when the Expo
closes.)
Thanks again to...
The Q2 2010 release introduces a brand new RadReminder component. Its purpose is to enable users to track different objects and their events. The architecture is pretty simple and intuitive and allows any IRemindObject implementation to be monitored by a RadReminder instance. The component comes with a built-in dialog that displays all the currently tracked objects in a grid and enables you to visually snooze or dismiss an item. The dialog is completely customizable and localizable and gives you the ability to modify each object’s display text and icon. Built-in reminder dialog Dialog’s display routine raises several events, allowing you to cancel...
An important part of the new stuff that is coming with Q2 2010 is the brand new RadDesktopAlert component. As a part of the WinForms suite, it fully supports the Telerik Presentation Framework which means it can be flexibly styled in the Visual Style Builder, as well as flawlessly integrated in any type of Windows Forms based applications. This component comes with a bunch of predefined themes, in fact all that we ship out of the box, and with a convenient API that allows for different modifications according to the requirements of a specific application context. One of the key features that...

The brand new RadPageView control is aiming high to provide a full replacement for the currently existing RadTabStrip and RadPanelBar controls by shipping the same functionality with a simpler approach and improved performance. This new control addresses many issues present in the old components, and is based on a very flexible and extensible platform that is fully compatible with the Telerik Presentation Framework, and allows for implementing different layout scenarios as quick as never before. The architecture of this control is pretty simple. It consists of pages and items where each item is associated with a page and it can be used to display...
We've just released a beta version of the upcoming Q2 release of JustCode and here's a short list of what we've managed to include in this build: We've included the much anticipated unit test runner. We've added support for MSTest and xUnit for now but for the official release we'll add support for NUnit and MbUnit.
Using the JustCode's test runner you can easily run tests, debug tests, filter and group tests, etc.
We plan to improve even further the unit testing story in JustCode but we'll keep that in secret for now :)
We've improved the Find Usages...
