Yes :-) You read that correct! A little secret that I had kept away from you all.
I have now completed my new WPF (and Silverlight) control BinarySlideShow .NET - a SlideShow viewer control that can host complex content (including 2D and 3D controls, Images and any other content that you can imagine).
As is obviously expected, the control is highly designer friendly, and it is also very friendly and intuitive to those who love to do things the procedural way ;-) rather than XAML-ing.
The control boasts loads of State Transition / animation effects, including the very popular SnowDustWipe effect that I had introduced in my VirtualizingWrapPanel control.
You would simply instantiate the control, add slide items to it (setup with your slide show content), and simply Play it :-)
The Play() method comes as a couple of overloads, each one providing fine-grain control over how you would want the control to run the slideshow.
The control provides user controlled, as well as automatic - i.e. DispatcherTimer based automatic slide transitions.
Until then, continue to enjoy the current Release 9.7 :-)
Stay tuned!
