From:

Marek Latuskiewicz has part 2 of his animate anything with Behaviors post up. Check out his "PerElementAnimationBehavior"!

Cristian Merighi has a nice Perspective 3D post up. He does the whole thing with a "Trackball" Behavior he wrote and is providing... sweet!

Kevin Dockx took on the challenge of making a Silverlight ComboBox (or ListBox) editable, and it ended up being not as difficult as I would have thought.

Jayaram Krishnaswamy has an article up on aspAlliance covering double Animation. By itself, the post could have been Silverlight 2 or 3B, but he also includes OOB in the discussion pushing it into 3B.

Gavin Wignall demonstrates using the Mouse Wheel for zooming a Silverlight app. This works very nicely. I also really like the way he pans over to where the mouse is located...

Stefan Olson had two posts up today... the first is providing a method of using the email address as a user name in the.NET RIA Services login... very cool. Stefan's second takes from Bea Stolnitz' posts and culls out just what he needs to start a tree control completely expanded... small and useful:

Jason Cooke is guest-hosting on Kathy Kam's blog today and has a very cool addition to the Calendar control... I'm going to challenge you... figure out how you'd do this before you look at the article... see if you come up with Jason's method:)

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.
