Silverlight Cream for September 05, 2009 - 2 -- #685

In this Issue: Laurent Bugnion, Sergey Barskiy, Victor Gaudioso

From:

Laurent Bugnion digs hard into the design-time issue of the designer actually being able to see what is being built which ripples back into how do we know we're running in design vs run-time.

Sergey Barskiy is blogging about Element Name Binding, and the example he uses is the classic two combo boxes problem where a change in one causes a change in the other without any codebehind.

Victor Gaudioso has a great video tutorial up on creating a metallic logo, plus he shows starting with other artwork and how to shape your path to match.

Stay in the 'Light!
