Silverlight Toolkit October Release#

A new toolkit release! Some cool drag and drop features:

“Other big news for this release is the introduction of comprehensive, WPF-compatible drag-and-drop support for Silverlight! Although this support doesn't extend outside the web browser (that would require changes to Silverlight itself), it enables full-fidelity drag-and-drop experiences within the browser using the same API that WPF users are already accustomed to. And if that wasn't enough, there are also a collection of drag-and-drop-friendly "wrapper controls" for common scenarios (ex: ListBox, TreeView, and DataGrid) that make it trivial to add support for drag-and-drop to an existing control. Dragging and dropping within a control (to re-order items) or between controls (to move items around) is now just a few lines of XAML away! (Note: No code changes necessary!) But wait, there's more: There's also a wrapper for Charting's DataPointSeries that enables drag-and-drop into and out of a live Chart control! This really needs to be seen to be believed, so please visit the "Drag and Drop" page of the public samples for a great example of this. Then go read Jafar's post about the new drag/drop support for all the juicy details!”
