Placing 2D labels in a 3D scene
Hello everyone, Since that is my first blog, I suppose a short introduction won't do a harm. My name is Evtim Papushev and I am Software Developer @ Telerik. I'm in the Charting division and I currently work on the new RadChart for WPF. Well, that's enough about me, now let's move to the today's topic. Placing labels in a 3-dimensional scene isn't an issue at all. Well, at least technically, it is simple - place a 3D model, then set text box as diffuse material, set the texture coordinates and you are ready to roll. What such a solution lacks is business...May 27, 2021 3 min read -

Optimizing the load size of Telerik Silverlight controls
Following the expansion of our Silverlight suite (more than 15 controls coming out next week) and the feedback we’ve got from the community, we are now in a process of optimizing the size of the assemblies. Instead of including all our controls into one big assembly, we decided to group them into several smaller ones. This will reduce the size of the XAP file when you are not using all the controls in the suite. We came up with the following list of assemblies: Telerik.Windows.UI.dll Telerik.Windows.Controls.Navigation.dll Telerik.Windows.Controls.Input.dll Telerik.Windows.Controls.Web.dll Apart from this list there will be assemblies that hold the themes of the controls - e.g. separate assemblies for the Telerik, Vista and Default themes.

Catching up with ASP.NET MVC
I wouldn't normally consider myself an early adopter. In fact, I prefer the 'tried and true' to the 'hip and new', especially when it comes to software development. However, that doesn't mean I should keep my head in the sand. While I might not always live on the bleeding edge of .NET development, I should definitely be aware of what's going on there. With that goal in mind, I'm going to dedicate a series of posts specifically to looking at the new ASP.NET MVC framework. ASP.NET MVC was introduced last October at the ALT.NET conference and Preview 3 is readily available...May 27, 2021 4 min read -

[ReSharper] Directory name donates namespace Yes or No ?
If you like us are passionate user of ReSharper you know that ReSharper "did not like" when a class' namespace did not correspond to the directory structure the file belongs to. To illustrate this lets look at a simple example. Imagine that we have a project named MyProject. By default its namespace is MyProject. Lets have a folder named MyControls in the project as well. Now lets add a class file in that folder, naming it "MyControl.cs". The default namespace that will be generated for the class will be MyProject.MyControls. It is constructed using the default namespace and joining it with the folder... -

New features in RadComboBox, RadTreeView, RadUpload and RadScheduler
Hi all, In this blog post I will show you some of the new features of RadComboBox, RadTreeView, RadUpload and RadScheduler which will appear in our Q2 2008 release. First I will introduce you with a cool new RadComboBox feature. Did you become a Telerik fan on Facebook yet? If not you can do so by going to http://telerikwatch.com/2008/06/become-official-telerik-fan.html. The reason I am talking about Facebook is that the new filtering functionality of RadCombobox works quite similarly. To enable this new feature you will need to set the Filter property to either one of the 3 different modes –None, Contains and StartsWith. Here's what they mean: ... -

RadControls for Silverlight and WPF
My colleague Hristo Deshev just announced the availability of Telerik RadControls for WPF Beta2. This is a very important release not only because it brings so many new features and controls for WPF, but because this is our first release that includes the Silverlight and WPF controls under a single distributable. For this first release we ported just a few Silverlight controls for WPF (namely TreeView, PanelBar, Calendar, DatePicker, Slider, ProgressBar and NumericUpDown), but in the long run almost all Silverlight controls that are applicable in a desktop scenario will be included in the WPF suite. What does this mean to you as a developer? Why is this... -

RadControls for WPF -- Now with Filtering Support
Boy, am I excited! We managed to push our second public beta out of the door, getting ready for the big Q2 release. Here is what's new: I am especially proud with the new filtering support in RadGridView. We designed the feature so that it would both allow you to plug your own filtering logic and have a cool default UI that will let your users quickly filter the grid. An image is worth more than a thousand words, so here it goes: RadCarousel got even fancier. Check those reflections: We got several new controls, freshly-ported from the upcoming Silverlight control suite:... -

What To Do When Your Toolbox is Devoid of RadControls
Unplug your wireless mouse. I promise I’m not crazy. That’s really the answer. And now that I’ve gone Tarantino on this blog post, let me give you the rest of the story. My development lately has been solely on my new laptop. However, tonight I decided to rebuild my desktop PC, loading it up with Visual Studio and the latest RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX so that I could work on a project. After spending several hours installing Vista, drivers, and Visual Studio I was finally ready to load up the Telerik bits and get to work. The installation went smoothly and I thought...June 29, 2008 2 min read
