I'm building one app and I want to make a gallery in my app.
What I did was create a GridView binding all my photos.
But what I really want to do is, create a gallery the same way of Windows Phone.
Well Microsoft did create a control for this! It's called the MediaViewer Class, but it's a difficult one to use. It's however the closest representation of the actual control used in the WP camera app! It was first featured in the Basic Lens app sample and provided as a nuget package PhoneMediaViewer
Hope these code examples help

I are looking to use a dashboard component in flex/as3 product.
So far I found this :http://www.flexicious.com/Home/Dashboard
I would like to know if anyone used such a product and can provide input on it.
Our base (flexible) requirements are:
Ability to move , resize , show - hide arrange windows inside the dashboard, something similar to flash builder editor.
Thanks!!
The dashboard application is inspired from the sample Dashboard application developed by the Adobe Flex community.
I suggest you to get the source of Adobe Dashboard Flex project and run it on your Flash builder.
It's more pretty and clean than any other imitation.
1- go to this link to download the project source as FXP (flash pro project) :
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/developer/flex/Dashboard-Part4-End.zip
2- Unzip the "Dashboard-Part4-End.fxp" file.
3- import it on your FB like this: File > Import Flash Builder Project > File and browse to your "Dashboard-Part4-End.fxp" file.
4- That's all, Run the project and look how it's pretty and clean : you can resize, move and reorder widgets with animation (see attached screenshot).
In Windows Phone 8 I was using PhotoChooserTask to get images from phone gallery and when I fixed Pixel width and height automatically windows phone start a page for cropping the selected image. Can someone tell me how to enable this option with FileOpenPicker?
Unfortunately the Windows phone 8.1 SDK does not have this operation, and I swear I tried look for it in every where, and the people of MDSN tell me it is impossible.... But you can try two options:
First: In the workflow of FileOpenPicker the user has two options take a image file already exists or take a new picture like the follow pic:
So in this case you do nothing and talk to UX area that is impossible to do =) .
Second: You can create a module(separated project) in the same Project Solution which uses the Windows Phone 8.0 SDK (instead 8.1). Do what you need to get the job done using the PhotoChooserTask... After in the main project add a reference to it and be happy.
Some big projects are using this solution because the 8.1 SDK removed a lot of features of 8.0 SDK and did some things hard to do.
One project you should take a look in the source code is https://telegram.org/apps
I hope it helps.
Good Luck!
I have developed wp8 app and looking for a control to slide. I am showing single verse in the page and I want the user to slide (forward and backward) to show next verse, verses may reach 286. I have seen this feature in many application in windows phone store, but I don't what wp8 control they are using.
appreciate your feedback!
Panorama is that you have one image in the background you move a little everytime you go to one side, it is what is used in the image app.
But since you need 286, you should not use the panorama control. Then you should rely on the pivot but beware of microsoft not wanting the users to be confused and caught inside 286 pages, so you need to give the user and overview and use a button that can return a person to the start page.
I have this requirement where i have to show a menu when users slide their finger down the screen. Just like viewing notifications in android and iOS.
If not the same thing may be any alternatives that i can use.
I'm new to windows phone development.
Please help.
While it can be done on your own, it's a pain to do well, and Telerik has already done this - check out their Data Bound ListBox control - http://www.telerik.com/products/windows-phone/overview/all-controls/databoundlistbox.aspx

You mean you want to create a wrapper app so that it appears in the launcher? Have a look at this article by Motorola http://community.developer.motorola.com/t5/MOTODEV-For-Enterprise/Hybrid-Web-Android-Apps-Applying-an-Android-Wrapper-to-an/ba-p/21370. You'll also need a Google Play account to submit the app through and Eclipse to build the app in AND you'll need to remember the to set the android.hardware.touchscreen feature requirement false in the Manifest. http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-feature-element.html
I suggest you pay someone to do it for you.
