I’ve uploaded all the samples here, you should be able to access the source code in all the samples by right clicking in the sample applications:

• Accordion3D layout.
• Swapping layouts with states.
• Swapping layouts with normal bindings.
• Post transformations sample. Nothing new here, but look at how simple the code is.
• Columns Layout. Another layout to look at, this time it sets the children in columns top to bottom, left to right.
• 2D Text rotation. Simple layout that positions different labels rotating them 45 degrees
• Dancing pile layout. A 3D pile layout that dances. Thanks for the track to the “Music for the peace” Creative Commons initiative. The accuracy of the dancer is not quite good since for simplicity I do only take into account one of every 8 samples.
• 3D Image rotation. The beginning of a Coverflow
• CoverFlow layout
• Carroflow Layout

Finally, here are the slides.

Special thanks to Evtim Georgiev for his support while preparing the presentation and all the materials.
I hope you enjoyed the presentation and that you found it interesting!

You can run the sample application here.

I specially like the lightening effects achived with a simple ColorTransform transformation and the really nice cover with transparency effects positioned on top of the pictures (I have to give all the kudos to Alexis Hill from Undefined for his nice touch of design!)

Things I’d highlight from the implementation:

• There’s lot of room for improvement in the positioning function. This was written as a learning sample resource.
• There’s a “random” glitch that misspositions some elements. This normally happens only with the second variation of the layout. I’ll have a look when I have some time
• At the moment item selection doesn’t work by clicking items. Instead use the slider

As always feel free to use it wherever you want at your own risk. The code is provided with no warranties at all.
