15.17. Miscellaneous Enhancements
Silverlight 3.0 has a number of other minor tweaks and enhancements.
15.17.1. Controls
Silverlight 3.0 has more than 60 new controls (many originally part of the Silverlight Toolkit); going through them would require several chapters. However, I will tell you that Silverlight now contains charting, docking, autocomplete, time, accordion, and tree view controls.
15.17.2. ListBox
The Silverlight ListBox control now supports multiselection.
15.17.3. TextBox Cursor Styling
The TextBox caret can now be styled in WPF 4.0 and Silverlight 3.0 with the CaretBrush property. This code example changes the caret to yellow:
<TextBox x:Name="txtValue" Width="400" CaretBrush="Yellow" Canvas.Top="50"> </TextBox>
