Windows 7 Silverlight TV 45: Building a Bing Web and Image Search App for Windows Phone 7 Using Blend and Silv

[News]

Want to build a Bing web and image search using Silverlight for Windows Phone 7? Kirupa Chinnathambi of the Expression team shows you just how to do that in this week's episode. Kirupa covers a lot of topics as he builds the app, including how to:

• wire up the app
• add the image templates
• use the Pivot control
• apply the built in resources to pick up the selected theme in the phone
• use sample data
• template a ListBox's ItemsPanel
• use the WrapPanel from the toolkit
• handle orientation changes of the phone
• customize the ApplicationBar

And Kirupa does all of this through Expression Blend!

Note: The WrapPanel used in this episode was from the Silverlight 3 Toolkit. Today the Link Removed was released, which includes the WrapPanel. Link Removed.
