Corey Schuman has a piece of work on how to animate a clipping area in Silverlight. In order to do this you have to define the Clip property of an object with RectangleGeometry or EllipseGeometry and then animate properties on the geometry. Follow the process of animating together with Corey.

Jeff Wilcox has written the article “NUnit & the Silverlight unit test framework”. In this short guide Jeff will talk about updating NUnit to build for Silverlight and about wiring up test projects. At the end of the post he gives a download with everything you need to get started.

Mike Snow has posted a little tip. He shows how to disable HTML DOM access from your Silverlight application. You can do this through the parameter called EnableHtmlAccess.

Mike Taulty has continued his last post about adding Silverlight Mesh enabled web application with the article “Live Framework SDK - Inviting Others”. He wondered what will happen if he wanted to make the used data available to another person. See what’s the answer and learn what "shared data story" is. Mike has also added a few screencasts to Channel9 around the Live Framework/Mesh. They're pretty introductory but might be helpful if you're looking to start out with Live Framework and want to save some time by re-using some of what Mike has already tried to figure out about the SDK.

Lee has made a good work on his project “Multiple selection ListBox”. He gives a sample implementation using checkbox. The sample involves changing the datasource. His own version is made by using ToggleButton and styles, and without changing the datasource.

Mike Ormond has published a post named “Expression Encoder SL 2 MediaPlayer Templates and SL Streaming”. If you wonder why you can’t publish from Expression Encoder 2 to Silverlight Streaming using one of the new SL 2 media player templates, the answer is that the “Publish to Silverlight Streaming” plug-in doesn’t yet support this. Find out how to avoid this error.

Tamir Khason has just published an article that refer to some nifty WPF time savers he is using for everyday development. Now he wants to share those code pieces with you.

Dan Wahlin has a new post for the Visual Studio magazine. It is about using the Visual State Manager in Silverlight templates. By using the VSM, you can add many different effects into your Silverlight 2 applications.

Pete Brown invokes you to subscribe to the Expression Newsletter. According to him, Expression Newsletter is a great but sometimes overlooked resource for Silverlight and WPF developers. It covers the Expression suite as a whole, but always has good content for Blend, Design and folks writing applications for WPF and Silverlight using VS2008.
