Silverlight Cream for July 15, 2009 - 2 -- #641

In this Issue: Jacek Ciereszko, Unni, Mehdi Slaoui Andaloussi, Bea Stolnitz, John Papa, Expression Blend and Design Blog, Andrej Tozon, Christian Schormann, and Jeff Blankenburg(2).


From:

Jacek Ciereszko provides a down-right clever little app demonstrating what his article is all about. And if you can read Polish, he has a link out to his blog!

Did you know you could design your own custom data for Expression Blend? Unni describes the process behind that magic.

Mehdi Slaoui Andaloussi is also one of the developers of the Rating Control and he discusses a scenario they programmed toward that they called the "Netflix Style"

If you're working with huge sets of data and need to figure out a way around the problems that entails, check out Bea Stolnitz's post.

Get the benefit of discussion between Ward Bell, Jeremy Miller, Glenn Block, and John Papa in this discussion of Presentation Framework.

This is the 2nd in a series by Kirupa in the Expression Blend and Design Blog In this one, he touches on many of the new features in a high-level manner.

Andrej Tozon reports he's updated his samples to SL3, and shows off the new OOB Settings form if you haven't seen it yet. And thanks for the shoutout, Adrej!

Another post by Christian Schormann. This time showing how to save personal workspaces, in particular ones with panels slid out of the way to give us more room to work.

As is obvious from Jeff Blankenburg's header, he is talking to Twitter with Silverlight... in this post he shows how he's doing that... interestingly his header is not blocked in this place, but the app on the post is... lol

WCF, LINQ, Silverlight... now Jeff Blankenburg is having some fun:) He details 17 steps end-to-end getting it all wired up.

Stay in the 'Light!

  • We Won The One Award I Actually Care About

    Full Scale made the Inc. 5000 for the fifth year straight, the 12th listing across my three companies. Here is why the one award you cannot buy is worth stopping for.

  • Your Customers Build the Features Now

    I let a tool I liked sit dead for a year rather than build the features I wanted. An MCP server meant I never had to, and your customers can do the same to your product.

  • Get the Size of a Directory in Linux the Easy Way

    du -sh for the quick answer, ncdu for the cleanup, df for the disk itself: every command for checking directory size in Linux, plus why du and df never agree.

  • Vim Search and Replace: The Ultimate Guide

    One :%s command replaces every match in a file before a find dialog would even open. The Vim substitute patterns worth the muscle memory: flags, ranges, capture groups, and multi-file edits.
