• Today my meetings ended up earlier than I expected and this freed up some time to go over r.a.d.toolbar and r.a.d.combobox 2.0.

    r.a.d.toolbar 1.0
    Another great new control that we will be releasing in Q4 is r.a.d.toolbar. Unlike r.a.d.calendar it’s more or less feature-complete and will not undergo much evolution. r.a.d.toolbar will be by far the richest toolbar control for ASP.NET. Integrated with r.a.d.dock it will give you the versatility of the winforms toolbar with all the cool options such as re-ordering, floating toolbars, pinned toolbars, keyboard shortcuts, flexible databinding and a whole lot more.

  • In my first post on r.a.d.controls Q4
    (http://blogs.telerik.com/vassilterziev/posts/05-10-09/r_a_d_controls_13_5_the_math_behind_Part_I.aspx) I made an overview of r.a.d.grid 3.0. Today it’s time to share some information about r.a.d.combobox 2.0, r.a.d.toolbar and the long-awaited r.a.d.calendar.

    In the course of the previous week I’ve had a chance to review the work in progress and I am very happy with what our dev and design teams have done - all products are both high-performance and very visually appealing. The latter is pretty important as our products, in terms of capabilities, are way ahead of documentation and examples and customers do have a problem to see all their beauty and...

  • r.a.d.telepathy

    Boy, did I have fun this morning... Here's what we received as a feature request from a customer:

    "I would like such a control for my clients that will make them understand that consulting on how to do projects is not free and that they should expect a bill when they get a solution, whether verbal or delivered. Could you create a control that I could embed in my correspondence and web projects that would change their ethical thinking? I am thinking r.a.d.Morality is a good name for it.

    Of course, you can wait until you have completed r.a.d.Telepathy as there is more demand...

  • One of the most common questions we are getting in the last couple of months is - "What will you be releasing in Q4"? For a number of reasons our typical answer has been - “It's going to be one of the best releases ever! Don’t waste time, buy a r.a.d.controls subscription license, and get the updates for free”. Unfortunately nowadays the words “exciting” and “best ever” are so widely abused that no one really believes them. Instead, customers want to know all the details in order to determine why the new product is so much better than the old...

  • Hi.

    My name is Atanas Korchev and I am a Product Manager here at telerik. I am involved in the development of r.a.d.controls MCMS Edition and r.a.d.editor SharePoint Edition. On this blog I will be sharing my experience with Microsoft SPS and WSS and Microsoft Content Management Server 2002, as well as anything else I find interesting.

    So here it goes… My first entry is about packaging resources for web parts.

    Web parts are deployed in most cases as CAB (Microsoft cabinet) files. A developer needs to package all web part files (manifest.xml, dwp files, assemblies or anything else) in a single cab file and distribute it. That file is then...
  • The mythic r.a.d.grid

    Ever since the first build of r.a.d.grid I've had a feeling that there's something "divine" about it:)

    It seems that I was right. After a Google search I found out that our beloved ASP.NET grid control has the same name (without the dots) as one of the characters in ancient Norse mythology. Apart from the initial surprise that r.a.d.grid is female, I finally have unquestionable information regarding r.a.d.grid's divine nature:

    Who could argue that there's a better grid than one with divine origins?:)...
