Are Infragistics UltraGrid and Infragistics WinGrid the same product? - infragistics

Have some task with Infragistics UltraGrid requirement. Found Infragistics controls' list on their site, but there is no UltraGrid in it, only WinGrid. Please, tell me, are these products the same?
Thank you

WinGrid™ is what they call the grid control for WinForms apps. It is often refered to as the UltraGrid because that is how it appears in the DevStudio toolbox. The actual namespace is Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.

I think they are! think they are name slightly differently between WEB and Widows and maybe even version!

Ig has in its products UltraWebGrid which is a product of the company up to 7.3 release, from 8.3 release the control is named (re-written) WebDataGrid. Ig has just released WebHierarchicalDataGrid.
As for the Windows Forms package WinGrid and Ultra grid are the same as stated before.

Sitecore displaying Japanese even though language is set to English

Some elements of Sitecore have randomly started using Japanese. I have checked for the following issues:
I have checked to make sure our Sitecore instance is set to English.
I looked through the entire solution for references to jp but it doesn't seem that it is being hardcoded into anywhere.
This has been affecting the following:
RTE's (the element selection menu e.g h1, h2, h3... is in Japanese)
Our validation rules:
Anyone had a similar issue.
This is on Sitecore 7.5.
UPDATE 1
I see that some items under core/sitecore/system/Dictionary have the Phrase field set to Japanese text. Could this have anything to do with it?
The user you're logging in with, what language preferences is set for it?
Is one thing that the Sitecore site runs in English, but a CMS editor user can still prefer to operate Sitecore in another language.
Control Panel => Region and Language settings
Figured it out. I'm assuming this was a bug in Sitecore but what happened is that all the Japanese translations in the core database's dictionary were moved to the English versions. This meant that it would translate to Japanese if it detected the mode was set to English.

How to better manage versions in Sitecore Page Editor

The way that Page Editor handles versions has been causing issues for in one of our Sitecore solutions for a client. I've posted about them here:
Sitecore instance showing incorrect workflow state in Page Editor
Expected usage of Page Editor's Experience date
I didn't get much response on those and so far I've surmised that this is just how Sitecore works. This is less than ideal for our instance, as when publishing restrictions are set, authors don't know which version they're editing which is causing various issues for them.
I'd like to implement a solution(s) to improve the experience provide the following functionality:
Something in the Experience tab that shows the number of the version being viewed.
A button on the Experience tab that resets the Date to the default (this is not simply setting the date to the current date/time, but resetting it to act as it did before a date was manually set).
A custom button in Content Editor which allows an author to open a specific version in Page Editor...set the date automatically when it opens, I guess.
An any one give me some clues on how much of this is possible and where to start?
Thanks.
For the first bullet "Something in the Experience tab that shows the number of the version being viewed", you can add version item in Core database.
Move to "Core" DB in Desktop Mode
Navigate to "/sitecore/content/Applications/WebEdit/Ribbons/WebEdit/Experience/"
Create "Versions" item like this, http://imgur.com/bPEDm7R
Create "Compare" item under "Versions" like this, http://imgur.com/dG8dz2M
The result like this, http://imgur.com/HPu3XAL
The content author can see which version they are using and they can also compare with previous versions.

What is the alternative for sc:EditFrame in Sitecore MVC

The project I'm working on is a new Sitecore 8 site build using MVC and with a demand for page-editor support. The simple fields are being addressed with the FieldRenderer.render() method, but there are also some droplink and multilist fields that need to be available in page editor.
In webforms you could use the sc:editframe control for that, but how can I get the same functionality while using Sitecore MVC?
Just an FYI in Sitecore 8.2 there is support for edit frames:
#using Sitecore.Mvc.Extensions
Then
#using(Html.EditFrame(...)) {...}
If not already, I highly recommend using GlassMapper to map your Sitecoce object to strongly typed objects in your code.
With Glass, you can then use the BeginEditFrame concept to replace the sc:EditFrame functionality of WebForms.
To take it a step further, look to implement edit frame buttons (this link is not Sitecore 8 specific, but the method to implement edit frame buttons is the same) in the core database to allow a very-friendly Experience Editor experience.

How to add custom menu in Sitecore menu list

i want to add my custom application name in Sitecore Start Menu List, i'm following this article :
Adding Application Shortcut
it saying use Core database i'm using this, i couldn't find Layout studio, can any sitecore developer suggest me how to find this and finish my job. Thanks in advance.
I think the instructions you've linked to there are out of date. I've not seen that bit of UI in recent releases of Sitecore.
Working in Sitecore 6.6 I've successfully made custom applications using these instructions:
http://sdn.sitecore.net/Articles/Customizing%20Sitecore%20Client/Adding%20an%20Application%20Shortcut/Creating%20an%20Application.aspx
But beware the issue that I've blogged about here. The recent revisions of Sitecore subtly break the configuration defined above, and you have to manually edit out a file extension to make everything work:

Based on the "it doesn't work in 7.5" comment below, I've tried these instructions on a test instance of Sitecore 7.5 rev 141003. It seems 7.5 behaves slightly differently - but I can still make it work.
Create the item under /sitecore/content/Applications using the external link button for the "Application" field. With raw values displayed, it should look something like:
And then create your application shortcut under /sitecore/content/Documents and settings/All users/Start menu using an internal link for the Application field. I found this still added the '.aspx' extension mentioned in my blog post, but I also found that editing it out again didn't work - it reappeared as soon as I hit save. I needed to edit out the extension from the link data using the Raw Values view in order to get the data shown below:
With those things set up, refreshing the page caused the test item to appear on my start menu:
Hopefully that works for you too?

Which version of Sitecore are you using? The Layout Studio is probably one of the least features in Sitecore, and personally not something I have ever used.
Instead you should create the the layout in Visual Studio - which then means your layout can be added to your Source Control System. Then follow the instructions in the link in Jeremy's answer.
If you do need to access the Layout Studio for some reason you can find it under: Sitecore menu > Development Tools > Developer Center. From there you can create new files/open existing files.
