Trail Navigation

Imagine interrelated records which are bound through diverse joins. When moving from one record to another you could trace a path in data space, much like tracing an historical trail of books you’d consult in a library. This project, done in Silverlight 5, explored the possibility to interactively trace a path and to explore linked data in a non-linear fashion. Non-linear in the sense that one can go back to a node and start a different route.

All layout and design was done in Expression Blend relying a lot on the path-listbox, (custom) behaviors and smart animation coding. Part of this project was also used in other projects and POC’s.
