Shoutouts:

If you had trouble with the SilverlightSpy site, it's back up now, so go get a copy to try!

From:

In this espisode of his game development series, Mark Tucker creates hotspots for selecting items and marking them off on the game board.

Fredrik Normén wanted to display an image scroller and in addition have the satisfaction and knowledge of doing his own... now he's sharing with us!

Working my way through their list, Silverlight Toys has a tutorial up on the Child Window.

Nikhil Kothari has a post up on somewhat alleviating the pain when adding validation rules and UI hints using the existing metadata model in.NET RIA Services.

David Poll talks through relative hyperlinks... how they work the way they do and then shows how he's extended INavigate in his DynamicNavigation library... and if that's the only piece you want... you can do that too!

Terence Tsang's latest outing is an update on his XML Gallery from last time, adding in loading animation and sliding effects.

This is the 3rd in a series about labels in Pie Charts for Bea Stollnitz. The other two are WPF and referenced in this Silverlight one.

Stay in the 'Light!

  • 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.
