I mainly came from a web development background (ASP.Net, ASP.NET, MVC, XHTML, CSS etc.) , But the Silverlight application that works with creating / designing applications is using Bing Maps Control for Silverlight, it will be included in user control and will be the 'main' screen in the system.
The form will have many other user controls which will be used to filter / filter / sort / order data on the map. I think this as a visual studio: Bing Maps code will be like editor window and other control solution explorer will take the results. (Even though very few of them!)
I have read and I am comfortable with the data side of the application (RIA-Services). I have to use a visual model to present my head and data around (some) databinding and put the code behind the file light.
I need some help UI design / navigation framework, especially 2 aspects:
- How do I apply the best liquid design so that map data filters Various user controls that can be resized / pinned / unpinned (for example, like Solution Explorer in VS)? I tested a grid splitter control using a grid, is this the best way? Would it be best to create grid / grid splitter with Navigation Frames within the grid to load content?
- Since I have many user controls that basically use the same set of data, should I set the dataconnect to the highest possible level (such as if the grid of the grid with several frames at the grid level To use?).
Any help, suggestions, links, etc. will be highly appreciated!
People help with getting started with both design and silverlight For Microsoft has created a great community site:
This may be more than the requirement of your existing project, but it will definitely give you the necessary training to design with Silverlight.
