Windows Phone自定义控件设计与实现

Question

I am working on a windows phone app, in which I will need to add a costom "cover-flow" kind of control like how it looks like in the Spotify app below:

Note: user can swipe from right to left to change song. I don't think Windows Phone SDK provide any controls support this, so I was wondering how such a thing is implemented.

I think it is either faked by a pivot page with dynamically adding/deleting pivot items, or maybe it is a custom control.

If I want to implement this as a custom control, does anyone has experience about it, or any sample code/tutorial will be very helpful.

Thank you

Answer 1

You're looking at a Panorama control . It is available out of the box with the Windows Phone SDK.

Answer 2

Telerik makes a great control that does just this. It's called the SlideView control. I know it's not free, but it is only $99. Given that it might take you about 4-10 hours to create this control yourself, I'd say it's worth it. If you join the Nokia Premium Developer Program you get Telerik's controls for free.

Note: I do not work for Nokia or Telerik and this is NOT a paid advertisement :)

Answer 3

The swipping effect is because of Panorama page. to change music you need to handle gestures that will be a tough task . The solution is to find a hack or have some control in the background that registers the touch event and changes the music
