Silverlight Cream for August 18, 2009 -- #668

August 18, 2009 · 1 min read

In this Submittal-only Issue: Davide Zordan, Michael Washington, Charlie Robbins, Alex Golesh(2), Pencho Popadiyn, and Danijel Stulic

From:

Davide Zordan provides two Behaviors for gestures with a Multi-Touch device. Don't miss Tim Heuer's article he references, and if you're a WPFer, he also has a companion post

Michael Washington has updated his Drag and Drop code to use Tim Heuer's Floatable Window and dang does that example work good!

In Silverlight 1 all we had to do was backtrack the JS to the xaml file and download it to get someone's source. Charlie Robbins demonstrates that in Silverlight 3 it's not that much harder to do.

Alex Golesh had a need for a VS-type properties window for Class information and has done a very nice job on producing one and providing all of us with the code:)

Pencho Popadiyn at SilverlightShow has a great tutorial up on a slideshow using the Silverlight 3 Pixel Shader effects using the WPF pixel shaders from Codeplex... very cool app.

Danijel Stulic digs into the Window.Navigate method to try to navigate to a page in the same window. He lists issues he had and is asking for some feedback.

Alex Golesh has a quick and to the point post up demonstrating hit testing with a sample control.

Stay in the 'Light!

    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.
