Walt Ritscher has a good post and links up about
From:
Pete BloisPete Blois... I don't think I'll be using that her in this factory application, but boy is it cool:)
Looks like Lee is working with Prism. He's got an app up, screenshots on the blog and a link to the app.
Andrej Tozon has a short discussion of IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem up and a demo using it in his deck... works great, Andrej!
I finally caught up with Andrej Tozon... his latest is on UI Virtualization and he's got a side-by-side demo running in his deck... very cool!
Jeff Blankenburg continues from Day 2 on Page transitions. He's also making the jump to at least SL3B. I'm trying to hit 2 a day and if I can keep this up, I'll catch up tomorrow:)
Going fully to Silverlight 3, Jeff Blankenburg demonstrates the new binding in SL3 by binding a slider to an image opacity, and very easily too.
e Jeff Kelly's name on them. They're in the database, but they're listed right now as Expression Blend and Design. All 3 parts good stuff...
Terence Tsang had just planned on demo'ing the OOB features, but ended up writing a "SilverlightHelper" app that we can all use... for generating Dependency Properties, Attached Properties, Creating a C# Storyboard, or and ASCII table... check it out.
This seems to be a day for WriteableBitmap and text. SmartyP hits both with this one, writing some textboxes to bitmaps.
Colin Eberhardt compares the text rendering in WPF, Silverlight 3, and WinForms. He shows X4 images to compare what's being down with Clear Type off and on in WPF and WinForms during the comparison.
Timmy Kokke gives pictorial examples of his 9 favorite things in Blend 3.
Tim Greenfield shows cropping an image using WriteableBitmap and has a couple hints and suggestions along the way.
Stay in the 'Light!
