I see many blog posts on creating a reflection visual effect and that's great but what I really want is a refection visual effect that can be applied to any control, and the refection is done automatically, with maybe some adjustable parameters.
Has anyone implemented something like this? If not, I don't know where I would begin as I'm very new to silverlight. What type of element would I need to create in order to have something that could be applied automatically?

Hi! The easiest way to do that (this is off the top of my head) would be to have a bunch of controls in a container --- like a some kind of Panel --- and then you would go through each object, and apply the desired effects. You could make your own Control, a Panel-like thing that has dependency properties that adjust the reflection effect properties. I'm 95% sure those types of things have already been written. I would do a search for "silverlight fish-eye menu" and see what comes up (in google). P.S. "Automatic reflection" sounds like it could be the title of Bjork's next album.

Or, if this is Silverlight 3 we're talking about, you could use HLSL to do that.
Automatic reflection?
