June 2, 2009 · 1 min read

In this Issue: Sergey Zwezdin, Steve Berry, Colin Eberhardt, and Mike Taulty.

Shoutout:

Tom is posting his Adventures with Silverlight 3.0 and SharePoint – Part 1 and is looking for others working in the same space.

From:

Sergey Zwezdin has a good post up at ASPAlliance on the Cross-domain policy... what it is, why it is, why you should use it, etc... all good stuff!

Steve Berry gives a quick tutorial and XAML example of style inheritance or as it's known in Silverlight "BasedOn".

Colin Eberhardt looks like he has too much time on his hands:)... seriously... look at the animation on that page... how cool is that?? And there's a ton of learning in this article as well, plus all the code is available!

Mike Taulty took some 'spare' time and built Pong with Silverlight 3B. He did some fun things with it too like using the Viewbox control to give him resizeability quickly, and added some keys for alternate UI experience... very cool Mike!

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.
