Silverlight Cream for September 03, 2009 -- #682

In this Issue: David Justice, Tim Heuer, Christian Schormann, Shawn Wildermuth, Matthias Shapiro, and Colin Blair.

Shoutout:

Shawn Wildermuth reports that his Silverlight Data Examples Have Been Updated!


From:

Want a default button on your Silverlight or WPF page? Have you tried? Well, David Justice has, and he's got one working, and you can too with the attached property code he's provided.

How about builging your own Pixel Shaders? Got some time on your hands?:)... Tim Heuer walks us through how to accomplish that a couple ways.. and one involves my favorite text editor!

Christian Schormann responded to a query about Conditional Naviation in SketchFlow and built a Behavior (of course) to do so, now he's explaining and giving us all the code too:)

Shawn Wildermuth has a gret tutorial up on Declarative UIs, but one take-away is an end-to-end tutorial for building out your UI In Blend then creating views and lashing up to data... external links to Shawn's MSDN article and other goodness... don't skip this one!

Matthias Shapiro not only gives us a behavior that let's us 'snap' a slider to an integer that works in Silverlight or WPF, but he demonstrates building it too!

Can't believe I left my comment completely off Colin Blair's post on Tuesday... and it was a great comment:) This time Colin is wrapping up the EntityCollection information including some code cleanup on other posts and then gets into the EntityRef and AssociationAttribute.

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.
