    Licensing for RadControls "Prometheus" for ASP.NET

    It seems that despite our best efforts to educate customers, we haven't done a great job at letting everyone know that: When you buy a RadControls for ASP.NET license, with subscription or not, you get a matching license for "Prometheus" controls and you can download the developer build of the controls from your Client.net account. It is up to you to decide whether you want to use the classic controls or the "Prometheus" ones. Everyone who buys an ASP.NET Subscription or a subscription license for the all-inclusive SKU (which includes all UI components for web and desktop development plus Telerik Reporting) gets "Prometheus" as a...

    RadChart: Zooming and Scrolling Support

    Hello, We've been receiving a lot of feedback on our charting control lately that indicated interactivity is one of the most desired aspects where we can significantly improve our offering. And we listened! It's my pleasure to announce that starting from the Q1 2008 release in April our RadChart Prometheus control will provide scrolling and zooming support out-of-the-box. Here is a sneak preview that just made it out of the Telerik Charting Labs: Default view: Choose zooming area / factor: Scaled part is displayed -- you can scroll into view other parts of the chart as well (and they are loaded on demand much...

    It's a fact (as of Monday to be precise) - the Telerik blogs are finally running on Sitefinity and we've got a new design for the blogs.

    Pony returns

    Well... I haven't blogged for so long that I almost forgot about this activity. One of my last posts was around the time we made "the big Bang release". It was so long ago (April 2007) that we spelled Rad as r.a.d. at that time. May be you remember that at that time there was a quest about the release and there was a forum thread about the quest. One guy (Mark Fitzpatrick) asked for RadPony. Well, we couldn't release a pony and it's still not sure it’s going to appear on the roadmap but somehow for me the pony...

    Integrated support for Load-On-Demand from Web Services in RadControls “Prometheus”

    As you may already know, the “Prometheus” counter-parts of RadComboBox, RadTreeView and RadMenu made their official appearance in the Q3 2007 release. The migration to the new code base was an opportunity for us to take a fresh look at the controls and identify the weak spots that needed improvement. One area that received great attention was the Client-side API. We wanted our customers to be able to create smart and responsive applications and this meant rich client-side functionality. Nothing that can be done on the client should require a trip to the server. The result is a flexible and powerful API...
