Silverlight Cream for April 25, 2008 -- #259

John Stockton with a UserControl bug, Sunil Urs with a Visifire demo, JesseLiberty with a UserControl Tutorial and Slides from Atlantic City, Brad Abrams with FlickR/SL example, Michael Palermo on unsing the MouseWheel, Mike Taulty on Getting to ListBoxItems and Video Markers, and Daniel Moth on File Dialogs.


From:

Silverlight 2 Beta 1 Problem with Animations on User Controls

John Stockton reported this to The Silverlight Team. Apparently he worked his way into it and couldn't find a way out. I can't view the post from this location.

Silverlight Charting With Visifire

Sunil submitted this to me and is a nice breakdown and demo of using the OpenSource Visifire Charting controls. Nice looking demo!

User Controls: Tutorial Available

Jesse Liberty posted about his User Controls tutorial, plus has links out to Karen Corby's awesome MIX presentation (I can't say that too many times). Jesse has a link to the PDF and article itself.

Slides and Code from Presentation in Atlantic City

Jesse also posted his materials from a presentation in Atlantic City, then went on to give other great links as well... too much to read, too little time:)

Silverlight FlickR Example

Brad Abrams apparently had some time to spend playing and produced a very nice Silverlight/FlickR example, and shows us all the pieces along the development path... wanna see SL and REST? wanna see Blend?... how about downloading the image, or Isolated Storage?... this is like one-stop learning:)

Video: Use Mouse Wheel to Zoom in Silverlight 1.0

Michael Palermo follows his cool Magnifying glass teaching video with this one on using the Mouse Wheel to zoom... good stuff, Michael!

Silverlight 2 - Getting to the ListBoxItems in a ListBox

Mike Taulty is a man of few words but a lot of code in showing how to get the the ListBoxItems out of a ListBox... you know you're going to need to... so grab this for use later!

Silverlight 2 - Video, Markers, XML

Mike then goes on to discuss easily dropping markers in a video to popup thumbnails at pre-selected spots... and he makes it look so easy!

OpenFileDialog and FileDialogFileInfo in Silverlight 2 Beta 1

Daniel Moth produced a not very long, but very detailed article on OpenFileDialog and FileDialogFileInfo... tons of links out to resources... definitely one to bookmark!

Stay in the 'Light!
