Benefits

Dazzling, previously impossible, WPF-like Visual Effects

Inspired by WPF, the RadControls for WinForms support the latest visuals including transparency, rotation, animation and transition effects. The suite showcases the magnitude that can be achieved with GDI+ and Telerik Windows Forms. Enjoy a rich and powerful UI support.

Theme Support

All RadControls for WinForms come with full Theme support – you can use any of the provided themes, or build new ones from scratch to fit your exact scenario. Themes can be applied across all controls built on the Telerik Presentation Framework.

Unique Architecture, Inspired by WPF

The Telerik Presentation Framework provides a completely customizable architecture for the controls in the suite by following WPF best practices. The Framework and its tools supply attractive and functional defaults for the Telerik RadControls, while simultaneously allowing developers to exercise very fine-grained, CSS-like control over every aspect of their appearance and behavior.

Unlimited Nesting of UI Elements

The uniform nature of the control architecture makes it possible to nest controls within each other for more flexible and modern user interfaces, unseen before.

WPF-like Effects in Classic Windows Forms
