Getting Started with WinForms PageView
This tutorial will help you to quickly get started using the control.
Adding Telerik Assemblies Using NuGet
To use RadPageView
when working with NuGet packages, install the Telerik.UI.for.WinForms.AllControls
package. The package target framework version may vary.
Read more about NuGet installation in the Install using NuGet Packages article.
With the 2025 Q1 release, the Telerik UI for WinForms has a new licensing mechanism. You can learn more about it here.
Adding Assembly References Manually
When dragging and dropping a control from the Visual Studio (VS) Toolbox onto the Form Designer, VS automatically adds the necessary assemblies. However, if you're adding the control programmatically, you'll need to manually reference the following assemblies:
- Telerik.Licensing.Runtime
- Telerik.WinControls
- Telerik.WinControls.UI
- TelerikCommon
The Telerik UI for WinForms assemblies can be install by using one of the available installation approaches.
Defining the RadPageView
To use RadPageView, you can simply drag it from Toolbox and drop it onto your form in the Visual Studio designer and use its Smart Tag to add pages. To switch between the different view modes, you can set the ViewMode property in the Properties window of the control.

To adjust properties of the specific view, you should find the ViewElement property in the property grid and expand its sub-properties where you can find settings specific to the currently active view. This is the general approach to set up the RadPageView control in the designer without considering the view mode.
