We ran out of time so I didnt get to talk… Which is fine by me… Im not very at home on the stage..
If you missed it, this talk had one of the coolest things I have seen at Mix yet. It was a prototype of the New York Times reader built in Silverlight running on the Mac! Very cool!
Here is what I was going to show. Im gonna let the screenshots do most of the talking but here is what is going on… Im doing on the fly template switching of content directly inside of Expression Blend. I do this by using the NumericRangeToObjectConverter that is part of blendables.
What is really cool about this is that I can resize the window inside of Expression Blend and it will automatically template switch where I can directly manipulate the design of the template. Then resize and directly manipulate another template.
I will be posting source for this soon.
