Argentum Tela Design Surface [20] – Getting up to speed

Damon Payne gets back into gear with his AGT project, bringing it up to Silverlight 3 for starters, then refactoring, moving to Unity, and streamlining the Design Surface. Keep an eye out for continued AGT posts.

Rishi has his website back up and has produced an nRoute toolkit that he's now starting to discuss the toolkit in this post. As usual with Rishi's post, this is very detailed and complete.

Nigel Sampson produces an ExecuteCommand that provides support for Commands that Silverlight does not currently contain. He finishes the post up with a screencast of hooking the View up to the ViewModel with Blend.

This is Chris Klug's 4th series on his Silverlight Twitter client. In this one, Chris adds the remainder of the View Models.

Andrea Boschin discusses the problems surrounding losing the server connectivity due to one of many different circumstances by allowing the client to continue and restart the server side thread when necessary.

Bryant Likes posts about a default command similar to one I blogged about yesterday, only Bryant's case is typing a login and hitting enter, and he takes a different approach... multiple choices of solutions for us!

Timmy Kokke fills in a Silverlight gap that doesn't exist in WPF by building a DataTemplateSelector.

Shawn Wildermuth is going to explain to us how the validation works in Silverlight. This first part is going to be to demonstrate what happens from 'the outside'... hang on as he continues in additional posts digging deeper. Check out his project named Niagara that he has a link to near the bottom of the post.

Terence Tsang takes on the iPhone scroll with this post. I like the feel he achieved with the Silverlight one.`

In this aside from his game development, Mark Tucker demonstrates setting the properties of Behaviors and Actions as the result of a Trigger.
