Just Another Way to Visualize Your Data Using RadTreeView for Silverlight

For the past couple of days I've been playing with the way RadTreeView renders its items. To be honest, I wasn't looking for any particular outcome. I was doing it just for fun, hoping that something interesting might come out. And it did. I ended up with something quite interesting and it would be a shame not to share it.
Bellow are few screenshots which show the TreeView from its initial state to the point where its deepest item is expanded.

Note: I do lack certain designer skills :)

The TreeView is bound to an XML data source which has the following format:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<Items>

<XmlNodeItem Header="USA" Value="312,913,872">

<Items>

<XmlNodeItem Header="California" Value="37,253,956">

<Items>

<XmlNodeItem Header="Los Angeles" Value="9,948,081" />

<XmlNodeItem Header="Orange" Value="3,002,048" />

<XmlNodeItem Header="San Diego" Value="2,941,454" />

</Items>

</XmlNodeItem>

</Items>

</XmlNodeItem>

</Items>

Download the sample project: USPopulation_Source.zip
Enjoy!
