Dirty Little Secrets - Episode 2

Silverlight Logo

My second episode of my "Dirty Little Secrets" screencast is up. This time I show you how to use control templates to skin a complex control in Silverlight 2. I create a ListBox with a Data Template and use ControlTemplates to skin the entire ListBox, Scrollbars, ListBoxItem and all.  Check it out!

Shawn, this was the "Best" video I've seen taking you deep into a templateing a complex control. Well done!

It would be great to point out how that new template can be re-used for other ListBoxes throughout the "Application", so when we drop another listbox control on another page, How can we use that template?

I wanted to but at 30+ minutes, I thought it was already too long...but thanks for the sentiment.

This was a great video. I have recommended it to everyone I know.
