Rating Control for WPF 4.0

Being recently frustrated with the absence of an acceptable rating control for WPF, I ported the rating control from the Silverlight toolkit to WPF.  A link to the full source code is provided below.  To use the code you will need Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 and .NET 4.0 (currently available as a free downloadable “release candidate”).

The follow code snippet demonstrates how to use the rating control in XAML.

<Window x:Class="ESRI.PrototypeLab.Rating.Test.MainWindow"
        xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
        xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
        xmlns:rating="clr-namespace:ESRI.PrototypeLab.Rating;
                      assembly=ESRI.PrototypeLab.Rating"
        Title="Rating control for WPF"
        Height="200"
        Width="300"
        >
    <Grid>
        <StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" HorizontalAlignment="Center"
                    VerticalAlignment="Center">
            <rating:Rating x:Name="rating"
               Value="{Binding ElementName=slider, Path=Value, Mode=TwoWay}"
               ItemCount="5" HorizontalAlignment="Left"
               Background="Transparent" Foreground="Yellow" />
            <Slider x:Name="slider" Minimum="0" Maximum="1"
                    SmallChange="0.1" LargeChange="0.1" Value="0"/>
        </StackPanel>
    </Grid>
</Window>
