Web ASP.NET AJAX
Introduction to RadRating
One of the new controls we added to the Q3 2009 RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX suite is RadRating. Even though this is the first release of the rating control, we made sure that it is packed full of excellent features and it has the same quality you have come to expect from the Telerik ASP.NET suite - cool skins, wide cross browser support, automated tests, and more. You can see all of the control's features on its overview page, but I will list some of the major ones here as well: whole item/half item/exact precision; four possible orientations; customizable number of... -

A brand new Timeline view for Teleriks Scheduler control for Silverlight/WPF
Along with other main features like standard resources and resource grouping, the Q3 2009 release brought an additional view to the present ones (Day, Week and Month) – Timeline. Briefly said, it displays a certain number of consecutive time slots and like all other views, the Timeline view is configurable in almost the same way. Here is how it looks like by default: … where each time slot is 1 day long (i.e. TimeSlotLength of the TimelineViewDefinition is equal to one day) and the date in each header is displayed in a “d-M-yyyy” format. Let’s tweak a bit some of the settings related... -

Using Connection Strings with Telerik OpenAccess ORM
As you might already found out, with the 2009 Q3 release of Telerik OpenAccess ORM we made the first step of providing an easier and more natural way of defining database connection settings for your applications. In other words, OpenAccess now supports standard ADO.NET connection strings. The aim of this post is to brief you how to use them with the product. To use Telerik OpenAccess ORM in a Visual Studio project, you should run the Enable project wizard first. A detailed article on how to use the wizard can be found in our documentation. Let’s just see what is new in this release....May 27, 2021 2 min read -

WebAii v2.0: Let Your Tests Share the Same Browser Instance
One of the features I really enjoy in WebAii v2.0 is the RecycleBrowser option. It changes the behavior of your tests, i.e. they keep running in the same browser instance (when set to ‘true’) instead of opening a new browser for each test. The default value is ‘false’ for consistency with the previous framework versions behavior. You can programmatically update that setting via the Settings class or using the Application’s config file. However, there are some details you should have in mind when using that option. We do use the RecycleBrowser option in the WebAii Testing Framework Sample Tests ...May 27, 2021 4 min read -

Using Telerik OpenAccess with Visual Studio 2010 Beta2
digg_url = "http://www.stephenforte.net/PermaLink,guid,bb9d49fd-982f-433b-9617-547de01a7978.aspx";digg_title = "Using Telerik OpenAccess with Visual Studio 2010 Beta2";digg_bgcolor = "#FFFFFF";digg_skin = "normal";digg_url = undefined;digg_title = undefined;digg_bgcolor = undefined;digg_skin = undefined; Just a few weeks ago Microsoft released Visual Studio 2010 Beta2. Last week Telerik put its Q3 release live into production. One of the cool new Q3 features is that OpenAccess now works seamlessly with Visual Studio 2010. That means you can target .NET 3.5 or .NET 4.0 using either Visual Studio 2008 (.NET 3.5) or Visual Studio 2010 (.NET 4.0). I will do a quick demo with Visual Studio 2010, SQL Azure, and OpenAccess. With OpenAccess Q3 installed, I fired up Visual Studio 2010 and started a console project targeting .NET 4.0 While the project will target the .NET 4.0 Framework, we have to do one small thing to make... -

How to: Create custom editor with RadGridView for Silverlight and WPF
If you need a custom editor to edit a specific data, you can use one of the following approaches: Use CellEditTemplate property of the GridViewColumn. Create a custom column by inheriting from GridViewBoundColumnBase. As almost anything in our life both approaches have some advantages and disadvantages. Although it is quite easy to implement the first option, there are some significant disadvantages like not so usable with many RadGridView instances, and more important this bypasses the RadGridView validation and editing engine. For more information about this approach you can take a look at this online example. In this blog post I’ll try to explain how to...
