A carousel control in Silverlight 2...
Check it out here... Source is here!
It is very little code so I did not do a write-up. The code does have comments.
Ideas? or Improvements I considered but did not implement (yet )...
- I debated using the animation system; generate ( n storyboards, where n = number of items ).. You can generate an animation that simulates points in a motion path.. this should smooth it out alot .. for the tiny sample I needed it felt like overhead; also I wanted to use DispatchTimer (the manual animation) as a reference.
- It assumes that items in the panel don't have a transform applied.. [easy to check and multiply transform if needed]
Credits: Every thing I know about carousel came from a Lee brimelow's flash carousel tutorial.
Bugs/feedback, leave comments or email.
