• RadControls for WPF SP1 is out!

    Thursday, September 11, 2008 by deshev | Comments 0

    Since our first official release in July, we have received lots of feedback from customers about things we need to improve. And we listened! The new release adds several important features that make working with the control easier. Here is the list:

    • Improved selection handling. We now expose a SelectionChanged event and two convenience properties: SelectedItem and CurrentItem. The latter two are especially useful when working with the control entirely in XAML without any code-behind.
    • Cell focus. We have added support for identifying the current cell and to navigate across cells using the Tab/Shift+Tab keys.
    • Improved accessibility support ...

  • RadControls for WPF -- Now with Filtering Support

    Wednesday, July 02, 2008 by | Comments 2

    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 ...

  • Launching a new blog

    Monday, September 03, 2007 by | Comments 0
    I am pleased to announce that I am starting a new web development-oriented blog. I have been honored (Thanks, Joe!) to blog on weblogs.asp.net and I think that, after several years of active development on our ASP.NET control suite, I have something to say about web development.

    What will happen with this blog? Don't worry, I will keep posting interesting stuff here too. I am just trying to separate the general ASP.NET content from control development and Telerik-related news and announcements. What is the best way to stay on top of everything happening in my world? Go ...

  • Ubiquitous: a funny word that unearths some PowerShell trivia

    Wednesday, May 30, 2007 by | Comments 1
    Do you think that the word "ubiquitous" can be hard on a non-native English speaker's ears. It is hard for Bulgarians, that I am sure. I picked it for the title because I really like its the strangeness and because it has a nice allusion to the software development best practice of automating everything that you get your hands on: tests, build procedures, and deployment. You need that to gain predictability in your project and ensure rapid and often delivery of new features.

    What surprised me was Jeffrey Snover's (yes, the architect behind PowerShell) comment about the original use ...

  • I am writing a book!

    Tuesday, May 29, 2007 by | Comments 8

    Yes I am! I can finally announce that and I am sooo excited! I have been working with the Apress guys, most importantly Jonathan Hassell, on starting an intermediate-level book on Windows PowerShell (formerly known as Monad). We have finished the book proposal checklist (a huge one, mind you) and it got approved. I am now off to finishing the paperwork related to contracts and other boring stuff and I have already started writing.

    The book is tentatively titled Ubiquitous Automation with Windows PowerShell. I am an automation freak and I want to help everyone ...

  • WebDD: slides and demo code

    Wednesday, February 07, 2007 by | Comments 0
    As promised earlier, here are the slides and the sample code from my WebDD talk.

    The code builds an image slide show control and an extender that will zoom its target in on mouse hover and zoom out on mouse unhover doing that with a fancy animation stolen from the AJAX Control Toolkit. Some info that you may find useful when reading the code in no particular order:
    • The ScriptControls project is the real control library. It contains the JavaScript and server-side controls and is being used by some of the pages in the demo site (ImageSlideShowServer, ImageSlideShowUpdatePanel, ...

  • WebDD – pure web dev enjoyment

    Tuesday, February 06, 2007 by | Comments 3
    Last Saturday was quite an eventful day! Me and Zhivko attended the WebDD conference in Reading, England, and I have been meaning to post a small review about the entire thing.

    The sessions I attended were really great. This was my first time seeing Scott Guthrie present and I can only say that he’s a real presentation machine. He gave 4 talks in a single day and then repeated one of them, so that people that did not have the chance to attend it could do so. I watched Dave Verwer give an incredible talk on writing unobtrusive JavaScript or script that works when it can and leaves your site ...

  • WebDD: I'll be there

    Thursday, January 18, 2007 by | Comments 2
    I am very excited to spread the news: I will be presenting at the WebDD conference. I am giving a talk on developing ASP.NET AJAX components -- one of my pet projects for some time now. Wait! There's more: Zhivko, our usability master and design guru will have a session on usability testing. Don't miss it out!

    I am looking forward to meeting a lot of interesting people at WebDD. I have registered at the backnetwork and signed up for the geek dinner Zi is organizing. Talking about JavaScript is waaay easier after 2 beers!
