Summary
Dan Crevier gives an introduction of how to go about creating a VirtualizingPanel implementation, in the first of a multi-part series.
Excerpt
"Displaying large sets of data can be challenging to do performantly. If you have a scrolling list of data, one technique to improve performance is to only create the UI elements that are visible. This is refered to as UI virtualization (as opposed to data virtualization, which is the technique of not materializing the data that isn’t visible). WPF has a built in virtualizing panel called VirtualizingStackPanel that supports UI virtualization and lays out its children like StackPanel. ListBox uses this panel by default. However, if you want to lay out your children differently, you need to write your own Panel that supports virtualization. WPF has a VirtualizingPanel class you can descend from to do this, but it’s still a fair amount of work. I’ll describe how to write your own virtualizing panel in this series of posts."
