In this Issue: Davide Zordan, Andrej Tozon(2), Anoop Madhusudanan, David Kelley, and Walt Ritscher.

Shoutout:

Walt Ritscher posted this and wow, mesmerizing is right.... check out the link of others as well!


From:

Davide Zordan posted an update to the behavior in the Expression Community Gallery to add Multi-Touch manipulation and Inertia. He then has an example of how to include it in your projects.

Andrej Tozon has a great MEF tutorial up on SilverlightShow that's the first of a series on MEF, and if you want a solid real-world example, here's one to check out.

Andrej Tozon also demonstrates using "My Pictures" as design-time data in Expression Blend and VS.

Anoop Madhusudanan follows up his Dependency Properties post with another on creating and registering a 'listener' dependency property and setting up a binding with the 'source' object.

David Kelley shows how to asynchronously load a large image in Silverlight to avoid bogging down the app's performance.

Walt Ritscher asks the age-old question about a white background on User Controls... or more importantly shows how to make them be non-white. Always a good idea because it shows up places that you're not in control of color!

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.
