Large number of big images

[Martin]

Hello,

I try to display a large number (about 100) of big images (each about 1MB). The images are stored in the IsolatedStorage of the Device. If I added them direct to the project and add a list of Uris, the control works perfect.

But If I try to get the images from the storage I have some problems. If I use a BitmapImage Array as DataSource, where the files created out of an IsolatedStorageFileStream, I get of course an OutOfMemoryException.

If I try to use an LoopingListDataSource no images are displayed. My code looks like this:

var source = new LoopingListDataSource(numberOfImages);
source.ItemNeeded += ((sender, e) =>
{
    e.Item = new PictureDataItem();
});

source.ItemUpdated += ((sender, e) =>
{
    var bitmap = new BitmapImage();
    using(var stream = Storage.GetFileStream(String.Format("{0}.jpg", (e.Index+1))))
    {
        bitmap.SetSource(stream);
    }

    var picture = e.Item as PictureDataItem;
    if (picture == null)
        return;

    picture.Source = bitmap;
});
_slideView.DataSource = source;

Which options does I have to realize my scenario?

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

I solve my problem. I need to define an own ItemTemplate

<telerikPrimitives:RadSlideView x:Name="_imageView" AllowZoomOut="False">
    <telerikPrimitives:RadSlideView.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <slideView:PanAndZoomImage Source="{Binding Source}" />
        </DataTemplate>
    </telerikPrimitives:RadSlideView.ItemTemplate>
</telerikPrimitives:RadSlideView>
