The PathListBox control is a new addition to the Blend 4 SDK, and allows the elements inside a ListBox to lay out along any Path control shape. Using this control, you can achieve basic motion path animation in Silverlight and WPF. I had previously written an article on how to use Motion Path in WPF 4 using Expression Blend 4. We can do a similar example in Silverlight 4.0 as well. Follow the above steps to achieve the same goal in Silverlight 4 using Microsoft Expression Blend 4.

When Microsoft released Silverlight 3, they also released Microsoft Expression Blend 3. In Blend 3.0, they came up with SketchFlow for prototyping user interface scenarios.

SketchFlow plays a very important role in our product development. By using SketchFlow designer, we can : 

    1) Experiment ideas by using ‘Top-down’ and ‘Bottoms-up’ designs. 
    2) SketchFlow player lets us try our designs at any time. 
    3) Communicate our design ideas to the stakeholders and customers. 
    4) Easily gather, evaluate and use the feedback from our stakeholders and customers.
