Silverlight Cream for September 16, 2009 -- #693

In this Issue: Bob Bartholomay, Ryan Shelby, Fredrik Normén, Allan Muller, Steve White, Terence Tsang, Vikram Pendse, Victor Gaudioso, and Andy Beaulieu.

Shoutout:

I blogged that Koen Zwikstra had released Silverlight Spy... but Ward Bell did a great post about it: Silverlight Spy 3 – First Look

From SilverlightCream.com:

Silverlight: Build Actions: Bob Bartholomay has a good post with external links to more assistance for describing the BuildAction values for Silverlight files.
Exporting Data From Silverilght Datagrid To Excel: I had blogged about Ryan Shelby exporting to Excel from an extended DataGrid... well this post is describing the 'works' for the extended DataGrid that helps him perform that magic. You might also want to check out the Print-Friendly DataGrid article he links to in this post.
Silverlight and scaling: Fredrik Normén got tired of the scaling issues he was having with Silverlight and decided to take matters into his own hands, and now has given his solution into our hands.
Silverlight: How to obfuscate a font and use it in a Silverlight Application: In this outing, Allan Muller at SilverlightTutorials is showing how to use a font that's not a 'Silverlight' font without making it usable outside your app...
Video: Silverlight Button Control Styling by Steve White: By way of Electric Beach, Steve White has a very nice video tutorial on Styling a Button in Expression Blend.
Silverlight 3 and Flash: XML Image Gallery: Terence Tsang's latest is an XML Gallery... just add to the XML and they appear in the Gallery... well, that plus of course the photos :) Should be a good chunk of code on reading XML as well if you're interested!
Silverlight 3 DataGrid : Beyond Databinding …: When Vikram Pendse says 'beyond' databinding... he's not kidding. All the things you've wanted to do with a DataGrid... he's dong them... no, seriously... check it out... different color headers, hand cursor, column sizing, hyperlinks in cells... you get the idea!
New Silverlight Video Tutorial: Importing Photoshop Files into Expression Blend 3: In his latest video, Victor Gaudioso is demonstrating importing a Photoshop PSD file into Expression Blend. Also go to his home page and check out the post he has of all his videos in one post.
Physics Helper Update: Fluid Container!: Andy Beaulieu has an update to his Physics Helper and he's added a Fluid Container Behavior... check out the demos... very cool!

Stay in the 'Light!
