    How do I do that with Telerik?

    Everyone is different when it comes to where they go to get answers to their development questions.  Many people use popular search engines like Google, while others prefer visit forums like Stack Overflow first.  Where do YOU go when you need help?  Telerik offers a plethora of options when it comes to finding an answer of how to accomplish a task.  These resources allow you to not only answer questions, but also learn more about a product and become more proficient.  I thought it might make a useful post to mention the options in case you missed one.    Forums      The...

    Breaking the ice: RIA Services and Silverlight 3

    Implementing Line of Business applications has never been easier before. RIA services together with the rich presentation layer in Silverlight provide a powerful foundation for building n-tier application that will do the heavy lifting of your data layer. RIA Services relies on the ADO.NET Entity Framework to create an entity data model of your relational database and interpret the entities independently of their data store representation. In this way you can use the power of LINQ to Entities to implement query logic against the entities without using t-sql, and rely on the entity relationship to retrieve information for any relationship between...

    Making a RadGauge look like a Dial

    I have had several people ask me about whether Telerik offers a dial control.  I thought it might be interesting to try and leverage the RadGauge control to build something that looks like a dial.  Essentially the RadGauge offers all the capabilities you would need, it is just a matter of styling.  I decided to build a kitchen timer application so I could create a dial theme.  I am no artist, but I think my end result turned out pretty well.  The video below will demonstrate how I use Expression Blend to quickly get a 3D (ok, 3Dish, again I...

    WebUI Test Studio and Sitefinity

    The folks from Telerik Sitefinity team just blogged about testing the Sitefinity modules with WebUI Test Studio. There are several important facts I’d like to point you to: - You can automate the testing of all the elements on the page in any ASP.NET Web application with WebUI Test Studio. Sitefinity CMS is an excellent example as its modules often contain quite complex pages. - Although we often highlight the RadControls Translators we add as the third component of the test studio, the product is not limited to testing of RadControls-based applications at all. For example such small but ...

    Executing JavaScript function from server-side code

    This is a pretty common scenario when working with WebForms. There are many ways to achieve the desired result, but they have one thing in common – you should make sure that the controls are fully loaded in the page before trying to get a reference to them and use them in your JavaScript code. In ASP.NET it is pretty straightforward to do that. For example you could use a label: ASPX <head runat="server">     <title>Untitled Page</title>     <script type="text/javascript">     function calledFn()     {         alert("code fired");      }     </script> </head> <body>     <form id="form1" runat="server">         <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Run JavaScript Code" OnClick="Button1_Click" />         <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server"></asp:Label>    ...

    Cannot discover WCF services in your Silverlight application?

    If you try to add service reference in your Silverlight application and you simply cannot discover any services in the solution using the Add Service Reference tool here is the way how to solve it. Note that the issue occurs both in Silverlight 2 and Silverlight 3 Beta.     1. Uninstall your Silverlight tools for Visual Studio      2. Go to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE or the place you have installed your Visual Studio environment.     3. Delete the file Microsoft.VisualStudio.ServicesProxy.dll      4. Install again Silverlight tools for Visual Studio and note that your file will be created again. There seems to be something wrong with the installer of Silverlight tools, which...

    How to show hidden panes in the Silverlight docking control

    Usually, when you use docking manager you want to be able to re-open the closed panes. This looks as simple as setting the IsHidden property of the pane to False. However, this does not cover all the cases. The pane might be in a ToolWindow and this ToolWindow might be closed by its X button. In this case, the pane would not be hidden, but it would not be visible either as it is in the hidden window. Another approach might be closing the last pane in a ToolWindow, thus triggering closing the window, too. In this case the pane will...
