Thanks again Phil for an excellent toolkit! I really enjoyed trying out the new controls and features. I have a few questions:

- Where did this BreadCrumb control come from? Is it your own idea?

- Do you implement all the controls by inheriting from Common Controls? How do you do it in C#?

John,
Sorry about getting your name wrong, it is corrected now and I hope you do not mind having your quote on the front page. I would guess that Kent County Council does not get mentioned often on tech sites!

Waescher,
I have a few little tasks left that need doing related to the release and then I hope to create a few more screencasts. It has been some time since I create any new ones and so it definitely needs doing.

Matt,
The priority controls for the Toolkit include the DateTimePicker and ScrollBars which are items wanted by many people for quite some time. I will be investigating these for the next release but cannot make any promises.

Just upgraded from 2.8.5. No problems after deleting old references from my project (includes; ribbon, a dozen navigators and 100′s of Krypton controls!)

Have no need for Krypton Workspace yet but appreciate it’s potential. Thanks again..

Thanks for the updates! Not wanting to sound like a whiner, but wasn’t the date time control supposed to be in this version of the tookit (er…suite)?

I like your new site, Phil. Great idea to post some information about the controls. What about some new screencasts, especially about the WorkspaceControl?

Yes – well spotted! I am one and the same. Also I work for Kent County Council (not Kent Country Council!)

IF it is the same John on the front page, you may have got his surname incorrect
