Dialog manager – new bubble window

V1.3 of the dialog management plugin was just released on the code plex site and introduces a new bubble dialog window.

Check out the demo here, please not the demo does not show all possible combinations and do remember to set combinations that make sense such as binding to the bottom of the red box and binding to the top of the dialog box or you dont see the pointer.

Cleaning up renderers in DataGroup

Today while working on performance increases when using Bojinx features in Item renderers I noticed that custom item renderers did not get released when I emptied my collection, this was a case of De-Ja-Vu as I had the same issue with the Data Grid a few days ago and posted a way to get the renderers to release.

Well I just uploaded two example to demonstrate how you can use the IOC features of Bojinx in item renderers safely and to show the performance, if you profile these you will find that all item renderers are removed and the magic happens in the dispose function located in the CustomDataGroup class.

The examples might feel a tiny bit sluggish but thats because of the logging and the fact that it's validating after each line, if you turn that off it's as smooth as silk

You can find the Asyncronous example here.
