RadControls for Silverlight/WPF Q1 2011 is here

Congrats Team;

I love the new TimeBar;
Does DataForm take advantage of the Display Annotations created in the RIA Services MetaData?
I have all my fields populated with Display attributes as one central location which SL DataForm takes advantage. But I really want to switch over to RadDataForm. :-)

Good day!

I was really waiting for headers/footers to be supported in the RadRichTextBox/RadDocument for the Q12011 version, but I guess it was left out again.

Regarding RadDataForm and DataAnnotations attributes - we are doing our best to provide a full support for all relevant attributes in DataAnnotations.
By the time of our Service pack I believe we will have a full coverage of all important attributes.

@dyowee - yes, the feature will be available with Q2, however, we will be doing our best to push it earlier. Once we have it done we'll surely announce it.

I look forward to the webcasts showing the new features.



Can you tell mention whether the RadDocking overhaul made it in? The large transparent docking host window causes lots of issues and is a huge showstopper for us in the present version. I don't see mention of it in the release highlights.

For someone already using (or familiar with) the DataForm class in the Silverlight Toolkit, is there a blog post / doc / something that can help someone considering a switch to RadDataForm?

While developing RadDataForm we have tried to keep the API consistent with the one of the Toolkit DataForm. However the ease of transition to RadDataForm would highly depend on your specific scenario. In case you decide to migrate to RadDataForm, do not hesitate to contact us via support ticket with some details on the features and behaviours needed for your application. We will be glad to provide the required assistance.

Hi,Why no data show ?this is my code:
xaml:
        <telerik:RadScheduleView x:Name="xRadScheduleView"   AppointmentsSource="{Binding}"> <telerik:RadScheduleView.ViewDefinitions>
    <telerik:DayViewDefinition />
    <telerik:WeekViewDefinition />
    <telerik:MonthViewDefinition />
    <telerik:TimelineViewDefinition />
   </telerik:RadScheduleView.ViewDefinitions>
   <telerik:RadScheduleView.ResourceTypesSource>
    <telerik:ResourceTypeCollection>
     <telerik:ResourceType DisplayName="Location" AllowMultipleSelection="True"
            Name="Location">
      <telerik:Resource ResourceName="Hall A"
            ResourceType="Location" />
      <telerik:Resource ResourceName="Hall B"
            ResourceType="Location" />
      <telerik:Resource ResourceName="Hall C"
            ResourceType="Location" />

public MainPage()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            this.Loaded += new RoutedEventHandler(MainPage_Loaded);
        }
        void MainPage_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            ObservableCollection<Appointment> appointments = new ObservableCollection<Appointment>();
            appointments.Add(new Appointment()
            {
                Subject = "I'm a new Appointment!",
                Start = new DateTime(2012, 2, 7, 12, 30, 00),
                End = new DateTime(2012, 2, 7, 14, 30, 00)s
            });
            xRadScheduleView.DataContext = appointments;
