It seems our principal graphics designer had some spare time on his hands recently (we're obviously not working him hard enough -- soon change that, laughing evilly), and decided to create two new skins, green and pink, for the Office 2007 look-and-feel fans out there. Here's the pink one: You...

Man, I'm starting to think that TechEd is not going to be long enough for us to show off our new stuff. This morning, for example, with the help of RomanK from our WinForms team, I've been delving into XtraGauges, our new product for WinForms applications that enables you to display various types...

A quick video this one, part of a series on the different chart types available in XtraCharts. Here I discuss the three radar charts provided in our charting product: radar points, lines, and area.
