In this blog post, MESCIUS' Greg Lutz demonstrates tips and tricks you can utilize to transition your WinForms apps to WinUI by highlighting key differences like MVVM, adaptive layouts, async workflows, and sandboxed file access. He explores five key areas:

  • Data Binding & MVVM
  • Adaptive and Resolution Independent Layouts
  • Reusable and Encapsulated Styling
  • Clean Asynchronous Workflows Replace Threading
  • How to Access Files from a Sandbox

Sample code is included to help you get started.

AI搭載のスマートペーストでデータ入力が向上

Telerik DevCraft 2026 Q1では、新しいSmartPasteボタンが追加され、AIが貼り付けたコンテンツを分析し、フォーム欄を自動的に入力可能

DevCraft by Telerik is a comprehensive AI-powered suite of more than 1,250 UI components and development tools designed for building modern web, desktop, and mobile applications using .NET and JavaScript frameworks. It includes reporting and report management solutions, automated testing and mocking tools, and document processing libraries, as well as a wide range of professionally designed user interface controls from the Telerik and Kendo UI suites. DevCraft enables developers to create feature-rich, high-performance applications with consistent design and user experience, delivering enterprise-level, scalable, and maintainable software solutions.

The Telerik DevCraft 2026 Q1 update introduces an AI-powered Smart Paste component that turns unstructured text into ready-to-use form data instantly by extracting structured information from clipboard content and automatically populating the appropriate fields. Instead of requiring users to manually copy and paste data into multiple inputs, the SmartPasteButton sends pasted text from emails, documents, or other sources to an AI endpoint that interprets the content and returns mapped field values for the form. This improves data entry, reduces repetitive input, and improves accuracy, enabling developers to deliver more efficient, intelligent form experiences within their applications.

To see a full list of what's new in DevCraft 2026 Q1, see our release notes.

Telerik DevCraft is licensed per developer and has two licensing models: an annual Subscription License and a Perpetual License. The Subscription license provides access to the latest product updates, technical support, and exclusive benefits for a flat annual fee, and must be renewed to continue using the software. The Perpetual license is a one-time purchase granting access to the current released version and includes a one-year subscription for product updates and technical support. After this initial period, users can choose to renew the subscription element to continue receiving updates and support; otherwise, they may continue using the installed version available during their active subscription term but will forgo future updates and support. See our Telerik DevCraft Ultimate licensing page for full details.

ONLYOFFICE Docs v9.3では、ユーザーがマウスやタッチデバイスでPDFフォーム内で直接署名することで、個人的なタッチを追加可能

ONLYOFFICE Docs is a comprehensive online editor, allowing users to create text documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and forms. It enables your users to edit, share, and collaborate on documents online in their preferred browser, within your own application. It is fully compatible with OOXML (Office Open XML) formats and supports popular Microsoft Office and other document formats such as CSV, DOC, DOCX, EPUB, HTML, ODP, ODS, ODT, PDF, PPT, PPTX, RTF, TXT, XLS, and XLSX.

The ONLYOFFICE Docs v9.3 update includes an improved PDF Forms signature field which now allows users to draw their signature directly on screen using a mouse or touch-enabled device. This option provides a more personal and natural signing experience, particularly in scenarios where uploading an image or typing a name is not practical. By supporting freehand input within the form itself, it helps maintain document authenticity while keeping the signing process intuitive and accessible across devices.

To see a full list of what's new in v9.3, see our release notes.

ONLYOFFICE Docs Developer Edition is licensed by the number of simultaneous document connections and is available as an annual license with 1 year support and upgrades. See our ONLYOFFICE Docs Developer Edition licensing page for full details.

Telerik JustMock 2026 Q1では、パイプラインの改善、フィードバックサイクルの高速化、コード品質の強化のためにGitLabのCI/CDサポートを追加。

JustMock by Telerik is a professional-grade mocking framework designed to improve unit testing in .NET development. It simplifies the creation of mock objects, enabling developers to isolate dependencies like databases and external services. This isolation allows for faster and more focused unit tests, ultimately leading to higher quality and more maintainable code. JustMock integrates with popular testing frameworks and offers a flexible API, making it a valuable tool for developers of all experience levels.

The Telerik JustMock 2026 Q1 update introduces GitLab CI/CD integration, enabling developers to run and automate JustMock-based unit tests directly within GitLab pipelines. This allows tests to execute automatically on commits and merge requests, providing faster feedback on code changes and helping teams detect regressions earlier in the development cycle. By embedding mocking-based tests into the continuous integration process, the update improves build reliability, supports consistent testing standards across environments, and improves DevOps processes without requiring additional manual steps.

To see a full list of what's new in 2026 Q1, see our release notes.

JustMock is licensed per developer and is available as a perpetual license with a 1 year support subscription, which is available in 3 tiers: Lite, Priority or Ultimate. See our JustMock licensing page for full details.

JustMock is available in the following products:

PDFに直接2Dバーコードを埋め込む

3月 2, 2026
PDF文書内でQRコードやその他の2Dバーコードを生成し、信頼性の高いデータ収集、追跡、自動化プロセスをサポート

The ability to render 2D barcodes using a PDF component refers to the capability to generate and embed two-dimensional barcodes, such as QR codes, Data Matrix, or PDF417, directly within PDF documents at creation time. This functionality allows developers to programmatically encode structured data, URLs, identifiers, or transactional information into machine-readable symbols that are accurately rendered as vector graphics or high-resolution images within the PDF. This supports use cases such as document tracking, authentication, inventory management, ticketing, and automated data capture in enterprise systems.

Several .NET PDF components allow you to create 2D barcodes, including:

  • Document Solutions for PDF by MESCIUS lets you generate QR Code and Data Matrix barcodes within PDFs as scalable vectors or raster images.
  • DevExpress PDF Document API for .NET (part of DevExpress Office File API) allows you to embed high-quality 2D barcodes in PDF files.
  • PDF4NET by PDF4DEV Solutions facilitates creating and integrating QR Code and Data Matrix barcodes into PDFs with flexible vector and raster output.
  • Syncfusion ASP.NET Core PDF (part of Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise) enables you to produce standards-compliant 2D barcodes in PDFs.
