In Expression Blend 4, one of the new samples we added is called MockupDemonstration. If you haven’t had a chance to use it yet, you can open MockupDemonstration from the Welcome screen, which is available when you first start Expression Blend or when you click Help and then click Welcome Screen. In the Welcome screen, click Samples, and then click MockupDemonstration.

I’m working on a Silverlight demo LoB application as a part of my bachelor thesis and I made a UI prototype with a couple of screens containing sample data and some basic functionality like navigating through screens, autocomplete boxes, some pop-up windows…

Effects used: Color shift for the eyes, followed by Brigthness. Waves for the "hair" and a finishing touch of Life-like.

Welcome to the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) documentation samples site. This site has samples that complement the WPF documentation on MSDN.

The code shown is the same as in the documentation, but now you don't have to dig for it! (Okay, so the digging is not much of a chore in most cases, but some topics are quite long and use multiple samples, making it harder to match the sample to the source.)

Joe Stegman has published the source to the TrustedApp media player sample he showed at PDC 2009. 

This sample requires the Silverlight 4 Beta which you can find here. This "trusted app" sample uses the new file system APIs, notification window APIs, windowing APIs, WebBrowser control, HTML Brush and Native integration.  For Native Integration, this sample will take the current playlist and import/export to/from Excel (assuming Excel is on the system). 

If you’ve been wishing for some helpful designer gestures for your Silverlight DataGrid controls, check this announcement of Jim Galasyn.

The Silverlight Designer Sample is available at the WPF and Silverlight Designer Extensibility site. It demonstrates a pretty neat designer implementation for Silverlight’s TabControl and DataGrid controls.

Joe Stegman finally got a chance to update both his Mix 2009 and bitmap samples to Silverlight 3.

See the table below for links to the running samples as well as Silverlight 3 sample source code.

In my previous post, I mentioned that most of the samples from previous versions of Expression Blend have been uploaded to our gallery. One thing that is common with all of the samples is that Celso Gomes had a hand in making them.

Go check out Celso’s site if you are interested in learning more about how these samples work.
