Authoring WPF Custom ControlsKarl ShifflettBlog: http://karlshifflett.wordpress.com When Microsoft released the .NET Framework, they really energized and radically expanded the toolset available to developers. The .NET 3.0 Framework is no exception to this trend.
In this presentation we will explore the steps required to build and consume lookless WPF Custom Controls that expose Dependency Properties and Routed Events. The sample code includes a WPF CheckListBox and HyperLink control (that is not dependent on the FlowDocument, Page or TextBlock controls) along with a WPF application demonstrating their use.
