I'm designing data-oriented application in Silverlight 3 and I'm wondering if is it worth using new DataForm control. It looks really awesome on PowerPoint slides but I have no idea how it is in real life. I need to achieve following behaviours: group model's fields to areas, for instance separating groups using horizontal lines or na...

Silverlight virgin here. How do I make the usercontrol surrounding my grid automatically resize to accomodate the grid width inside? Currently the usercontrol is displaying at about 300 or 400 pixels when the browser window is much wider. It renders both vertical and horizontal scroll bars around the data grid which is ugly. I want to se...

I currently have a module in the main region set to InitializationMode.OnDemand in the Bootstrapper and can load it via ModuleManager.LoadModule() after a successful login in the toolbar module.

I just wasted invested a good chunk of time trying to determine why a specific datagrid among many was showing shrunken rows with no text. After many trial and errors attempts to figure out what made this grid special, I finally found that the class used for the row items was marked private. That is a perfectly good reason, but I would...

A few months ago I built some online samples like this one from Jeff Prosise that use the WriteableBitmap class in Silverlight. Revisiting them today with the latest Silverlight3 installer (3.0.40624.0), the API seems to have changed. I figured out some of the changes. For example, the WriteableBitmap array accessor has disappeared,...
I feel like I've missed something obvious, but when creating a custom control in Silverlight I can declare properties as public and they will be exposed when making XAML declarations, so I can easily do something like this: public class MyControl : UserControl { public string Title {get; set;} } And this: <local:MyControl Title="...
I'm writing a Silverlight application that is showing a pie chart of completed items as an item in a DataGrid. I currently can get the graph to show as an item in the DataGrid using a DataGridTemplateColumn. My problem is the grid blows out the height of the data row because it has a title and a legend and a lot of allocated whitespace...
When using the Silverlight DataGrid with an IList derived data source it is possible to click a column to sort by it, assuming the CanUserSortColumns/CanUserSort properties are not false. However I'm finding some edge cases cannot be sorted by - the values are shown, but clicking the column has no effect. The first edge cases would see...

I'm Buiding a Silverlight 3 class library that needs to get a hold of the querystring. Now I know that in a SilverLight app, you can get a hold of it via the HtmlPage class. This doesn't work for a Silverlight class library. In a class library used in ASP.NET you could get hold of the current context through HttpContext.Current. Does Sil...
