FAQ
The Blendables Layout Mix is a set of 2D layouts which leverages the Panels technology used for application and content layout in Windows Presentation Foundation. The SwitchPanel infrastructure at the core of the Layout Mix enables the concept of switchable layouts. This concept allows for smooth animation and transition of elements between different panels.
SwitchPanel Core
Force and Resistance :
Set velocity and easing of the animation using a physics-driven model.
Penner Animations
†
:
Based on Robert Penner’s animation-easing algorithms which are widely used in the design community.
Customized :
Total control for specifying animations with a user defined model.
Custom Layouts
The Layout Mix includes the following 8 custom layouts which plug into the SwitchPanel infrastructure.
RandomPanel :
Great for ever changing views. This panel offers a different view each time it is rendered by randomly laying out content within the panel.
RadialCanvas :
Place content around a Radial Center utilizing set angles, content rotation and distance from center.
AutoStretchPanel :
Automatically fill a panel with content. The content will stretch to accommodate the changing size of the panel.
RelativeCanvas :
Arrange content in relation to a specific pinpoint within the canvas.
PerspectivePanel :
Create a unique and changing view, in perspective, on a set of content. Use items such as angle of twist, scaling and shifting to transform the view.
CameraPanel :
Move a virtual camera within a panel to zoom in, out and around content. Create amazing 3D-like user experiences.
TimelinePanel :
Content with time based information will be automatically placed along a timeline. TimelinePanel includes features to automatically visualize items with similar or overlapping time stamps.
Carousel :
Arrange items in a Carousel which imitates a 3D layout without the heavy lifting required utilizing true 3D.
The Blendables Layout Mix also includes SwitchPanel compatible versions of 5 panels included with the WPF platform.*
StackPanel :
Arranges content in a horizontal or vertical layout stacking or placing side by side based on the individual content dimensions.
CanvasPanel :
Used for directly placing content. Allows the user to set content in relation to the edges of the canvas.
WrapPanel :
Will layout content in horizontal or vertical orientation. When content reaches edge of panel it will automatically wrap to the next row or column
DockPanel :
Arranges content to the edge of the application. Multiple pieces of content aligned to the same edge will stack in order
Grid :
Align elements according to Row and Column designations.
*WPF currently includes 6 stand alone panels (StackPanel, WrapPanel, DockPanel, Grid, Canvas and VirtualizingStackPanel).
