IPhone Style Drag and Push Panel in Silverlight

Submitted by smartyP on Sat, 07/04/2009 - 13:19

I've been doing a bit of work at the new job on some custom panels relative to our project. In doing the work we have been talking a lot about the iPhone's main launcher panel and how the iPhone implements dragging and reordering of icons on the screen. I wanted to take what I have learned in working on those custom panels and apply it to actually recreating the iPhone's implementation - you can find what I came up with here:

Get Microsoft Silverlight

(click and drag squares to rearrange, 'Revert' to reset order)

I was going to hold off on posting the code as this attempt was done quickly and perhaps the code is a bit hacked up, but I know that chances are I won't have time to clean it up, so I'm just going to post it as is. If you make use of the code or clean it up, etc. please let me know - hopefully it's still something people can learn from.

Hi,

Awesome custom panel.
I loved the interactivity and the excellent implementation of a re-arranging panel.
One of the best examples of Fluid UIs i've seen in a while.

Keep up the amazing blogging,

Wow thanks for this panel in silverlight. I am interested in iPhones panel for a long time too. Your work will be like a tutorial for me, because I am only a junior software developer. Thanks for your hard work and efforts, and moreover thanks for placing this information and sharing it with us here. I have bookmarked your blog so I will be waiting for other great articles from you.
