Silverlight Cream for May 13, 2009 -- #592

May 13, 2009 · 1 min read

In this Issue: Peter Bromberg, David Poll, Jose Fajardo, Terence Tsang, and David Anson.

From:

Peter Bromberg digs into Validation and Navigation for us and is very code-heavy on a great article/explanation of a a Silverlight app using both those concepts.

David Poll is also looking at Navigation, but at the same time is trying out ways to get logging and statistics for deep links... and succeeding!

Jose Fajardo is finding more time to be back to what we all know and love him for... cool samples and demos:)... his latest is CoverFlow... an album cover menu sort-of with the covers tilted back... very cool effect and it works great!... oh, and tons of info and code too!

Terence Tsang is back and is doing a cool Perspective 3D... prior to looking at it, I was thinking it was going to be something like Jose's, but it's more a 'cube' rotating, but then zooming to fill the window, then contracting back out... pretty clever and fun to watch.

Pineapple upside-down chart [How to: Invert the axis of a chart for "smaller is better" scenarios]

David Anson demonstrates not only flipping an axis on a chart, but mixing together some other magic also makes the indices on the axis look good as well.

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.
