    Introducing: the telePhone

    After digging around in Telerik's old Visual Source-Safe server, I found a long-forgotten prototype of a RadMenu skin. I felt the urge to disclose it to you, and hope that you will like it. the telePhone prototype On second thought, this initial draft looks good enough, so we might switch to hardware production. Don't be evil, we were first! Maybe we could even go 3G... Ok now, getting serious - you could use this sort of menu for navigating when there is a large hierarchy in the site navigation (or, to be more specific, a hierarchy that has a wide tree). Currently, no...

    A Simple Introduction...

    Howdy! My name is Kevin Babcock and I’m the greenest Technical Evangelist on the Telerik team. I’m excited to have joined forces with the Telerik boys (and girls) and even more excited to talk to .NET developers about the great set of tools we provide. But don’t think that’s all this blog is about. While I plan on providing some in-depth coverage of the Telerik tools and control suites, I also plan to dive deep into the heart of .NET and talk about some of the latest and greatest bits that Microsoft has released over the wire, the latest tips and tricks in...

    Introducing RadForm for WinForms

    Hey everyone. The other day, I was responding to requests for more information on how to use the new RadForm, and I felt like we’re not being proactive enough in showcasing what our product has to offer. I’d love our customers to use our product to their maximum advantage, and I realize we have an important role to play to facilitate that. In this respect, I’d like to say a few words about one of our newest additions to the control suite – RadForm. RadForm is an alternative to the standard Windows form. It offers you all the standard form functionality...

    WPF Grids – to be or not to be

    Recently both Paul Stovell and Joseph Cooney blogged about one very interesting topic - "Do people really need grid controls in WPF?". They're saying that people actually don't need grids in WPF and this is what makes their blog posts worth reading. Imagine if they had said the opposite: "People need grid controls for WPF!". It would have been quite boring and wouldn’t have spurred much of a discussion. For many people the idea of not having grids for WPF sounds unconventional but Paul made an interesting parallel to justify his claim "Using grids in WPF is like buying a Ferrari to pick up...

    The Telerik TechEd 2008 Crew is finally back!

    After more than fifteen hours of flights across half of the world, I finally had a chance to get some sleep. After a few cups of coffee, I am finally catching up with e-mail and everything else that happened in the office during TechEd. It was a great week and I want to say a big “THANK YOU” to all of you who attended the Telerik booth at TechEd 2008 in Orlando. The positive feedback we got from you guys was incredible! It was great fun to see how many people were wearing .NET Ninjas and Geekettes and I was really surprised to discover that some of the attendees were wearing...

    Export and Printing RadGridView using Telerik Reporting

    Hi everyone, by means of introduction my name is Martin Vassilev and I am a support officer with the Windows Forms team here at Telerik. As of late, we noticed increased interest towards RadGridView data export capabilities. What we have always told our customers is that the RadGridView will have only basic Microsoft Excel export capability, until we are able to implement a commercial grade format converter here at Telerik. However, that requires quite some time, and customers can’t wait right? What was needed was a quick, easy, stable way of exporting RadGridView content to formats such as RTF, PDF and...

    Ever needed a demo using RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX using the Q1 2008 RadControls suite?

    I visited DevConnections in Orlando about a month ago. There my colleague Todd Anglin and I held a vendor session called "Developing Rich, Responsive Applications using Telerik RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX". My team had prepared a demo for the vendor session - and we have 3 major goals when we started implementing it: We wanted to keep the code to a minimum (which I think we managed quite nicely). Most of the about 200 lines of server code are related to database queries, and the client-side only uses about 40 lines of code. We wanted it to be real life and do...

    WPF Series: IFrameworkElement - the missing interface

    If you are familiar with WPF you are aware that the the grand daddy of all controls is FrameworkElement. It is defined in the PresentationFramework.dll assembly and derives from UIElement (defined in PresentationCore.dll). Its purpose is to serve as a base element for all framework related stuff: styles, inheritance context, etc. However there is another framework element - FrameworkContentElement. The main distinct between them is that the later did not defines its own rendering behavior (its inheritors should do so). This is way properties like: (Actual)Width or (Actual)Height are not present at FrameworkContentElement. If you examine the classes that derive from FrameworkContentElement...

    RadGridView for WinForms unleashed

    Hello everyone, my name is Kiril Matev and I'm a software developer for the Windows Forms team at Telerik. We're all pretty excited about the newly reengineered RadGridView, which is a part of our Q1 2008 release, and I’d like to highlight a couple of features you might find useful. So far, you had to always construct a data source, initialize its columns, and rows, and then bind it to the RadGridView. However, many simpler scenarios demand just adding, editing and removing rows using the API directly. This so-called unbound mode for the RadGridView has long been a must-have feature for many of our customers. We had the opportunity to provide...
