How to Use the Text Roller Blind Control
To use the Text Roller Blind on your Silverlight page:
<UserControl x:Class="TextRollerBlind.Page"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:liquid="clr-namespace:Liquid;assembly=Liquid"

<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White">
<liquid:TextRollerBlind x:Name="currentStatus" Canvas.Left="10" Canvas.Top="8" Width="130" Height="80" TopText="Employment" BottomText="Status">
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" Margin="6">

<RadioButton Content="Other" GroupName="main" Checked="CurrentStatus_Click" />
</StackPanel>
</liquid:TextRollerBlind>
</Grid>
</UserControl>
In your C# code behind file you can refer to the Text Roller Blind using currentStatus. In this example we create a simple Text Roller Blind containing a set of Radio Buttons.
