Quasar

Author: Charlie Robbins, 2008

http://www.charlierobbins.com

Last Update: January 19th, 2008

Requirements

Depends on the SilverlightToolkit and is currently using the December 2008 drop.

Quality Bands

Currently all controls in Quasar are in the pre-Alpha stages of development. I have tried to outline all of the limitations in "Limitations below."

  1. pre-Alpha: There are no unit tests, sample usage in Quasar.Samples, or other documentation.
  2. Alpha: There is sample usage in Quasar.Samples and limited documentation
  3. Beta: There are unit tests, sample usage in Quasar.Samples, and limited documentation
  4. Released: Ready for prime time.

Dependencies

  1. Built against Silverlight 2 RTM
  2. Silverlight Toolkit, December 2008

Limitations

  1. AttachedDragDropBehavior
    • EventHandlers cannot be set in ControlTemplates
    • EventHandlers must be public methods on whatever class they are declared
  2. AttachedEventHandlerManager
    • EventHandlers cannot be set in ControlTemplates
    • EventHandlers must be public methods on whatever class they are declared
  3. ImageListView
    • The ImageListViewItem does not utilize any sort of bounding (i.e. ViewBox), so there may be possible clipping in some Stretch usage scenarios.
  4. LightBox
    • Currently has no "Adorner" like layer built into it, so to get the faded background effect, you must have it stretch to the entire area.
