Answer 2

The best way to use these type of components, is using component dlls that have the feature already worked and developed with optimal performance, check these:

However, you can find open source projects, or examples of how to develop this in source code repositories like codeplex and codeproject, see this:

http://www.codeplex.com/site/search?query=metro%20components&ac=3

there is only one detail ... as seen in the link above, you will find more resources for these type of development in WPF.
