    XAMLflix!


    If you haven't tuned in over the last few weeks to our RadChartView and RadBarCode posts, my partner in crime (Michael Crump) and I have been working on a new initiative to help accelerate your education when it comes to the RadControls for Silverlight and RadControls for WPF control suites. XAMLflix is intended to deliver quick, to-the-point videos highlighting features and functionality of our controls alongside sample projects with the exact code you are seeing in the videos. One step better, since our Silverlight and WPF controls derive from a common code-base...

  • The last time we all got together we were discussing some of the options available to us while utilizing RadGridView. Utilizing built-in functionality we could easily add pre-defined grouping to our grid as well as set custom cell styles and rules for what template will display, all without leaving our Xaml. This week, we’re going to look at another major control that is being utilized in the CRM demo to help keep track of activities – RadScheduleView. This control is used across the modules of the application for activities display, plus due to the architecture of the...

  • RadControls for WPF, 2011.Q1

    We will start with the project from the previous post:

    DOWNLOAD: RadScheduleView_GroupHeaderTemplates.zip

    And will produce the following project that has its timeruler items modified:

    DOWNLOAD: RadScheduleView_TimeRulerItemTemplates.zip

    Using the GroupHeaderContentTemplateSelector you can bind to the resource data. In the time ruler this is not the case. The time ruler items present date information and at this time they can’t be modified through items source property. We will create an inline template selector and discuss some of the TimeRulerItem DataTemplates.

    Converting the TimeRulerItemTemplateSelector to Local Value

    Select the RadScheduleView, go to the “Styling” section in the “Properties” tab and click the rectangle near the “TimeRulerItemTemplateSelector” property. Then...

    RadControls for WPF, 2011.Q1

    The attached project will be generated in this blog and will be used in future:

    DOWNLOAD: RadScheduleView_StartUp.zip

    This is probably the first post of a series that will guide you through RadScheduleView styling. We will try to use Blend as much as possible for the styling and designing part and VisualStudio 2010 for some of the code that we will need.

    Setting the References

    RadScheduleView requires the following references:

    • Telerik.Windows.Controls
    • Telerik.Windows.Data
    • Telerik.Windows.Controls.Input
    • Telerik.Windows.Controls.Navigation
    • Telerik.Windows.Controls.ScheduleView

    Adding the RadScheduleView in the Design Surface

    In the MainWindow select the “[grid]” element, find the RadScheduleView in the toolbox and double-click it:

    Probably the view now does not look...
