This book offers a number of tutorial-based recipes with each recipe depicting one of the commonly used user interface patterns built with Silverlight (and in some cases with WPF just to showcase the possibilities). Each recipe takes a step-by-step approach, first giving you the idea what is the recipe about, followed by the steps needed to be executed. The chapter then explains about the recipe, context for its usage and, last but not the least, the professional user interface and user experience guidelines.
From discussion and recipes dealing with fixed and fluid layouts, sample data generation, and building the custom command link controls, to the more advanced and somewhat avant-garde topics covering the usage and implementation of webcam and printing support and pixel shader effects this book is covering all you need to know to properly design and implement your user interface together with professional user experience and interface guidelines to make your solutions and apps pleasurable for your users.

Chapter 2, Actions and Commands gives you recipes and patterns involving regular buttons, progress bars, and list boxes.
