RadGridView and localization

[Ralph]

I feel that I am missing something very simple.

Looking over the documentation am I correct in getting that Telerik does not provide translated strings for their controls but instead exposes LocalizationProviders and Dictionaries that we can then overload?

Is there no easier way to do this?  Can I not simply stick resx files somewhere? (running directory etc ...)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You can use resx in localization provider:

internal class MyRadGridLocalizationProvider : RadGridLocalizationProvider
    {
        public override string GetLocalizedString(string id)
        {
            switch (id)
            {
                case RadGridStringId.GroupingPanelDefaultMessage:
                    return resx.GridGroupingMessage;               // get from resx for current culture here.
            }

            return base.GetLocalizedString(id);
        }
    }
