I’ve seen quite a few slideshow controls for Silverlight. Mostly they are either retemplated listboxes (buying an easy transition effect for free) or custom controls. I’d like to see how the DomainUpDown control can be used to do a slide show. This post...
I believe this is going to be the last post in this series, although I bet I will have some loose Accordion posts coming up. This part is going to focus on AccordionButton, and show you how to retemplate it. Previous posts: Part 1 – accordion Part 2 Read...
Mehdi pointed me to a great accordion on this site . It is a horizontal accordion that only uses images. In this post I’ll walk us through creating something similar. This is what the accordion looks like: There is a snazzy effect where the headline pops...
We continue our exploration of Accordion. This time we’ll take a look at some of the template parts, namely ExpandableContentControl. See part 1 and part 2 if you didn’t yet. ExpandableContentControl This control is part of AccordionItem and is used to...
