    Tip of the Day: Clear your ClickOnce application store

    ClickOnce is a great technology that blurs the line between web and client(windows) applications. You can use it to easily deploy windows forms and WPF (through XBAP) app's. However there is common problem with it. The application store (the place where all ClickOnce applications get stored) has the ability to corrupt it self ending in an appropriate version mix of your application. You can end up in situation where "it works on my machine", but in reality the application did not work correctly. To avoid such situation it is a good practice to clear your application store before testing the...

    HelpDesk ready for action

    So much has been going on lately, I almost forgot to tell everyone about the integration application we released a while ago. We wanted to deliver an application which is built entirely with our RadControls for Winforms. However, we had to wait until the reengineered RadGridView shipped as a part of Q1 2008, in order to provide an application which integrates the latest and greatest technology we have to offer. Soon after our Q1 2008 release, which features a significantly improved grid control, we released the HelpDesk application – a sample contact management system, which uses a number of controls –...

    RadEditor for ASP.NET AJAX in Community Server

    We have updated the Telerik editor provider for Community Server to use the new RadEditor from the ASP.NET AJAX suite. The new provider is available for download from the following URL - http://blogs.telerik.com/Libraries/Stoyan_Stratev/RadEditorWrapper20080623.sflb?download=true (deployment instructions are included in the archive).   There are some major changes in the new provider. I will list them here: 1. ScriptManager - since the new editor is built on top of the Microsoft ASP.NET AJAX Extensions, it requires that the System.Web.Extensions.dll assembly is either in the bin folder of the CommunityServer web site or in the machine's GAC. You do not need to add a ScriptManager control on...

    Manage Your Dev Space with Virtual PC 2007

    I don't know about you, but sometimes I feel behind the times. Often when I learn something new it seems to me like it's something I should already know. Today was definitely one of those days. I've played with Microsoft's Virtual Server and Virtual PC products in the past, but never gave them more than a cursory look just to see what they hype is all about; I never personally saw a need to start using them. Well, my eyes have finally been opened. I remembered reading one of Scott Hanselman's blog posts in which he described using Virtual Machines (VM) for presentations, turning...

    Design your RadCarousel with just drag & drop in Q2

    While we are currently polishing the new RadCarousel features, I thought that some of them look pretty exciting and you may be anxious to have a sneak peek. A great new feature of RadCarousel that saved tons of time is the ability to define an ellipse or a bezier path for animating carousel items by just dragging the carousel path points around in the designer. The new carousel designer does not only display a preview of the path items follow, but also allows you to grab a point from the path and drag it around in your Form designer. Imagine how...

    Formatting RadChart Labels

    Hi everyone, My name is Vesselin Georgiev and I am a technical consultant here at Telerik. This is my first blog post and it is dedicated to labels in RadChart. By default RadChart will display the value corresponding to the bar (point, slice) as a label.  But RadChart allows you to control the label content. This is possible thanks to the DefaultLabelValue property, which has been around for quite some time now. You can use several “special words” in this property -- "#Y", "#X", “#%”, “#SUM”, “#STSUM”, “#SERIES”, “#ITEM”. They are all listed in the dedicated help topic . This is all good, but...

    Opera 9.5 - Love at First Sight

    The new Opera 9.5, released about a week ago, quite easily established itself as my default "home" browser. It is sooooo much faster than Firefox and Internet Explorer, especially when it comes to heavy web applications such as Gmail and Facebook (and doesn't hang either). And what's more, the Opera guys finally made the Alt + D keyboard shortcut focus the address bar as is in the other two browsers (stretching out to reach F8 was rather inconvenient. Happiness is in the small things, you know... :-) ). Opera 9.5 also includes DragonFly, which is the more powerful successor of the browser's...
