Hi

I'm trying to create an effect whereby when I click an arrow my content slides to the left and dissapears thus leaving an new set of content in its place. Much like the way wp-coda works http://wordpress.bustatheme.com/coda/, but i wan to do this in expression blend which uses silverlight.

Thanks Judi

I've created exactly what you're trying to create in Silverlight. I accomplished it using a combination of:

  • Composite Control (Back/Forward Arrows and a Horizontal Scroll Viewer with no Scroll Bars)
  • Custom Binding to bind the click event of the buttons to the Scroll Viewer scroll value.

It's pretty much a Horizontal Scroll Viewer with two arrow buttons to scroll instead of the built in scrollbar.

Wow thanks very much :) Is there a tutorial/ walkthrough on how to do this. I'm very new to blend! I'm a photoshop designer so not quite as familiar with coding yet.
