I have old app creted in Windows Phone Silverlight 8.0. I use RadDataBoundListBox (Telerik Controls) for list in app. I need add drag&drop function in my app.But it was not easy.
RadDataBoundListBox do not support drag&drop.
In Silverlight 8.0 work with drag&drop difficult and complex.It is only example drag&drop for list in WP Silverlight. But it does not suit me.
I can upgrade app to Wimndows Phone Silverlight 8.1. But ListView is not available for WP Silverlight 8.1. Which control should I choose for drag&drop and reorder?
I have a time limit. Please tell me the fast way to solve this problem.
I would recommend ListBox, reorder can easily be done using linq extension.
If you have an extremely large list you should be careful with listbox.
for drag and drop look at Drag and drop from list to canvas on windows phone with MVVM
Look at drag and drop in windows phone and https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/pakistan/2013/07/10/drag-drop-in-silverlight-for-windows-phone/
I searched for information about it for two days. Add full drag&drop for items in windows phone silverligth - It is inpossible. May be used reorder. It is a great control for wp silverligth(only reorder). I will update the project to windows phone 8.1.

I am developing a windows universal app with XAML / C# and i want to drag an rectangle in order to dop it anywhere else.
In former projects (e.g. for Windows 7 applications) i have been able to initiate drag n drop by using the DragDrop Class and doDragDrop. This class is not available in my universal app.
How can i dragdrop in universal apps? How can i reference the DragDrop class?
Finaly i found help at this site: link
I am starting to develop a Windows phone (Silverlight) 8.1 application and one thing I wanted to create was a user control. I noticed on the normal windows phone templates for a WP project in VS2013, there is a template for user controls, but not when in a Silverlight 8.1 project. What would be a good starting point for this? Is it the same as a windows phone user control? I am having a hard time finding tutorials on how to do this specifically for Silverlight.
This is a new Windows Phone 8.1 Silverlight project and these are the options you see. I believe a Windows Phone User Control is what you want.
The naming conventions changed probably because the new non-Silverlight Windows Phone User Control uses the WinRT naming convention, using: instead of clr-namespace:, so these components are not shareable between Silverlight and non-Silverlight projects.
I have been looking but have been unable to find as yet a nice comparison of the differences in touch / gesture support between the Windows Store app API's and WPF.
I have seen that WPF includes some basic touch events but do the WPF controls handle gestures such as swipe, hold and tap or would we need to implement our own identification of these getsures using the basic touch events?
Thanks

Here is the full list of Windows Store App controls:
wpf controls
When developing a Windows Store App, you will use there controls. They have (where applicable) built in gesture support.
I'm a C# developer taking my first steps in Windows Mobile development. I've installed Visual Studio 2008 SP1 and the Windows mobile 6 Pro and Standard SDK's. Now I am trying to create a simple winforms application.
The problem is that when I set the Target Platform to Windows Mobile Standard, I seem to be missing a lot of controls. For example, there is a checkbox, but there isn't even a simple button (take a look at this screenshot ). When I switch to Windows Mobile 6 Professional, I get all kinds of controls.
What could be the problem? I've already tried to repair the WM 6 standard SDK, but that did not help.
Thanks,
Adrian
That's correct. Windows Mobile Standard, also known as Smartphone, doesn't have a touchscreen. All interaction is done through the two menu action buttons. Because of this many controls, like buttons, don't make sense and are therefore filtered from the toolbox.
I want to add the ability to drag a user control from one part of a Silverlight 4 page onto another user control on the same page (not talking about the new Silverlight 4 ability to drag a file from the OS onto the page).
What approach is most straightforward? What approach offers the most flexibility?
Here are some alternatives I found so far
SO drag-and-drop-control-for-silverlight. Same question but answers apply to SL 2.
Alex van Beek's DragManager. Written for SL3.
Silverlight Drag Drop. Also written for SL3.
I can't compare all of the options you've listed but if I wanted to implement control to control drag drop feature I would the DragDrop and the DragDropTarget classes from the Silveright Toolkit. Its the only DragDrop framework I know of that has been refreshed for SL4 and if you already use elements from the Toolkit then that would be a natural solution.
