Hi, I would like to use the conversion tool to convert a WinForms project to Telerik controls. Unfortunately the menu item is not showing up for me. See attached screenshot.
The project to be converted does include a reference to System.Windows.Forms. I am using VS2019 with the latest Telerik Winforms release.
Thanks,
-Lou
Team,

(This request may be specific to VS solutions which produce only DLLs, and not to ones which create a .exe.)
At the moment, the default behaviour for everything else in my VS project is to not produce warnings unless something might be wrong, which I may need to action.
WinForms,as of the latest release (2025) is the only thing which produces warning messages where there is not problem, which is not very tidy. I only want to see things in the build output which need my attention, defintely not 'happy' messages, or warnings which are not needed.
Currently, for each project in my solution, I get a message like:
1> [Telerik and Kendo UI Licensing]
1> Valid Telerik UI for WinForms license found. Make sure the main application also references Telerik.Licensing when using a class library.
...but I have a valid licence, and everything is OK. No action is needed.
Your support suggested adding...
<TelerikLicensingVerbosity>quiet</TelerikLicensingVerbosity>
...to each project in my solution, but that still produces the above build message.
A polite solution would be to turn-off ALL such warning messages, and let me switch them ON when needed. Preferably via a setting somewhere, not by editing the VS project file, which means unloading, editing the project file, and realoading each of many projects.
(Visual Studio 2026, not currently an option in the drop-down below)
Provide an AI assistant for code generation with the Telerik UI for WinForms controls.
RadMessageBox(form) is a telerik replacement for the System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.
MessageBox has a parameter MessageBoxOptions.DefaultDesktopOnly which makes it (surprisingly) topmost. RadMessageBox does not have this option.
I have a scenario where the RadMessageBox is hidden by a total different application when shown. So I need to make it topmost.
Can you add some kind op RadMessageBoxOptions to make it topmost?
When I use the new project wizard provided by Microsoft for a new windows forms project it lets me select the target .net version
When I do the same with the Telerik wizard, it does not let me choose what .net Version I'm targeting and does not generate the optimal code for the target version. For example when I target .net 9.0 with high dpi support, it should generate API calls for High DPI, not an entry in the app manifest. IMHO the generated code should be as close to the Microsoft Standard for the targeted .net version as possible.
I would like to see a new property added to the RadLabel control: Style. Style is an enumeration with layout styles like in MS-Word:
When the style is applied, the styling (font, color, background, etc.) is applied conform the currently active Theme. Therefor all themes need to be expended to support this setting.
Of course the enum label 'Custom' should be present (or null) when a user tries to override the style-related properties (like font, color, background, etc.)
This is very usefull when a programmer wants to build his own form (with or without Layout / Flow controls).
Telerik already uses it a bit themselves: Some (data entry) controls already generate (group) headers and captions in there forms.
