Book Control: DevExpress WPF Utility Controls

Book Control

Uses a book metaphor to display information on screen. Represents data records as book pages and provides a life-like page turning UI. To navigate contents within the book, you "drag" individual pages to one side or the other. You can populate individual pages with info using content templates and bind the control to data, so that each page represents a single record.

To spice things up, there are several visual transition effects built-in. The WorkspaceManager can be used with any DevExpress visual control that support serialization (e.g. BarManager, DockLayoutManager, DXGrid, etc.) The target visual control may also contain other serializable DevExpress controls as children.
