PathListBox control comes with Blend 4 SDK in Silverlight 4. PathListBox allows any elements to be layed out along the path. Just imagine putting letters around the circle and then animating it.

My speculation based on Mix 2010 Sessions...

downloads/PassingLargeText.zipWe will look at passing large text to Silverlight using InitParams and then we will take a look at using Fiddler to see what gets passed into Silverlight.

Using WebClient and AssemblyPart we can dynamically load any assemblies. This is greate techniques to use for designing plug and play type of Silverlight application. Also this is greate optimazation technique to make the xap file smaller and lazy load assemblies that might contain business logic.

Imagine that you have silverlight that does not require redeployment and only thing you have to redeploy is your reflectively loaded assemblies during runtime!

Silverlight has nice support for full screen. Only problem is that when Silverlight application goes into full screen mode none of the controls will scale properly. One of the biggest advantage of using vertor graphics is that when the resolution increases controls are expected to increase and not lose the quality.

So how can we scale the elements when Silverlight application goes into Full Screen mode?
