silverlight-3.0

I'm looking at a scenario where I need to create a single "master" Silverlight application and then add "child" applications for an out-of-browser Silverlight application. The scenario is something like this. A user will visit a gameboard web site and choose a game to play. Let's call it Checkers. He likes it, so then he installs the out-of-browser app to his desktop. He then finds Chess, and installs that too. For both games, while played on the site, he has stats (games played, win/loss records, etc.). For each game on the site, he navigates to a different page. But now he wants to play

I have not been able to find a clean solution to the following problem even though there are a few related questions already on SO. If I have a data template that is being used multiple times, for example, a TreeViewItem.HeaderTemplate, how can I change something the template for only some of the TreeViewItems. For example, let's say my TVI HeaderTemplate has a textblock and depending on the string, I want to make the fontweight bold. I want to do something like this: ((TextBlock)myTreeView.Items.ElementAt(0).FindName("myTextBlock")).FontWeight = FontWeights.Bold; Does anyone have a solution

Within a Silverlight 3.0 application I want to use the AssemblyFileVersion to display the version information of the application. This is not the same as the AssemblyVersion and is typically retrieved in a .NET application using code such as: var executingAssembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly(); var fileVersionInfo = FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(executingAssembly.Location); var versionLabel = fileVersionInfo.FileVersion; Unfortunately Silverlight 3.0 runtime does not include the FileVersionInfo class. Is there an alternative way to access this information? Here's a way to do it with

Im slowly delving into Silverlight and after a good while trying I am finally able to return my own Custom Object from my web to my silverlight client, use a Siverlight enabled WCF service. Now, im a little at a loss between the differences of a Domain Service, and a WCF Service. Ive worked through the tutorials where a Domain Service is tied to a data context then bound to siliverlight controls. Great :) However, where i hit a rock was trying to return anything bar IQuerryable; as String, my own simple type etc. I found a few tutorials such as this showing to mark a function with the

I am currently developing a Silverlight 3 app that needs some sort of user authentication, because the data pulled from a WCF service is user specific. Target audience is the regular Internet - so there is no AD to authenticate against. Here are some of the questions I have concerning that situation: Is there a framework or other mechanism that would support me? Would you recommend authentication within the Silverlight app or via outside mechanisms like forms auth? Which is more secure? What about out-of-browser support? I used ASP.NET's authentication. Just use a MembershipProvider (or

Hy, I have a chart,wich is created in runtime,this could be Line, Bar or Pie type. Basically what i want is to have more contrast on the lines on the chart,this means i should use different colors on the lines. For Bar chart i use the StylePalette property to set wich colors will used in the chart,and it's working fine,but for Line it has no effect. As a Line chart i tried this: For the line i want to use lets say 2 colors. Style style = new Style(typeof(Control)); Setter st = new Setter(Control.ForegroundProperty, new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Red)); style.Setters.Add(st); Style style2 = new
