    Creating A Win8 App From Scratch–A Scrolling Home Page

    In a previous article I discussed the project that I’ll be building in Windows 8.  We started with a couple screen mock-ups and then passed these to the designers who came back with preliminary designs.  While these designs were not ready for Prime Time, they were enough to get me started coding (okay, I would have started coding without them, who can wait?)

    India Trip - Upcoming Speaking Engagements

    Tomorrow I leave for a two week “jaunt” to India. I’m extraordinarily excited because I’ve wanted to travel to India since I was a young child. I’m also excited because our India team has filled up the entire two weeks with an incredible amount of speaking engagements, customer visits, and customer training. It’s going to be an exhausting but incredibly productive trip. I’m also excited because I’ll get to spend time with Lohith and Dhanajay, two of our great evangelists in India. I’m looking forward to learning from them when we’re presenting together at a couple community events. I’ll ...

    Debugging Coded Steps in Test Studio Express (Visual Studio)

    Every test suite of any significance will require you to have some form of coded steps. As awesome as Test Studio is, there are always going to be things you’ll have to do via code. Test oracles to check your database or file system would be one example. Backing APIs for setup and teardown actions would be another. Sometimes it’s just handy to have a breakpoint where you can pull up Visual Studio’s Immediate window and do live queries of the web page’s Document Object Model (web apps) or Visual Tree/XAML Tree (Silverlight or WPF applications). I’ve just uploaded a ...

    A XAMLFlix Video Tutorial: RadAutoCompleteBox for WPF and Silverlight

In this episode, we examine the RadAutoCompleteBox, looking at both single and multiple selection, as well as how you can tune the control to match the appearance of your project using themes. What Is RadAutoCompleteBox? RadAutoCompleteBox allows the user to type in one or more letters and see a list of potential matching values. The more the user types, the more the selection field is narrowed. The user can, at any time, select one of...

    Windows 8: Longitude, Latitude, Altitude and Scatter Diagrams

    In this posting, we’ll look at how to track location coordinates in Windows 8 and how to plot changes in position using Telerik chart controls.  Specifically, we’ll chart changes in altitude (e.g., of a toy helicopter) over time, as shown in figure 1. Figure 1 In Figure 1 we see the current altitude (at 12 minutes) is 15 meters. This is reflected in the scatter diagram and is also reflected in the simulated location information that we’re using to simulate the flight of our simulated helicopter. Setting Up In order to get this to work, we need to be able to obtain the values...
