Wow.. what a week... by the third day of a conference, I find I'm just totally maxxed on information and tired, and this one is no exception.
My first presentation was yesterday just before lunch and I got some nice comments which was cool... also had some negatives, but I think it was from folks that were expecting more meat. Yesterday I spoke on styling controls with static resources, then moved on to the toolkit themes, ImplicitStyleManager,and then moved the app.xaml resources into a Resource Dictionary.
Today I followed David Kelley, and cracked open a radio button with Blend just to show where the bodies were buried, then opened a new project and completely re-clothed a ToggleButton as a red LED with a rollover flash and when pressed, it stays pushed in :) ... I think this one was better received.
My last one was on data binding ... very simple and low-level, but av complete solution for one time, one way, and two-way binding plus value converters, data templates, and a simple WCF webservice.
For everyone at DevTeach, I've just uploaded a refresh of all my material.
For everyone NOT at DevTeach, this material will make it to my site soon.
Thanks to Rod Paddock and Jean-René Roy for the opporunity, and thanks to all the devs that I met there that attended my sessions... and keep in touch!
Stay in the 'Light!
