An API module that allows you to define blocks as Angular JS controllers. You define which JS and HTML views to load in a hook in your own module and the information is loaded when that block is requested (you must go to the blocks page and create the Angles block.) Note for developers: You'll want to set angles_cache_blocks to 0 (drupal variable) to turn off the built in view html caching. This module currently requires Context to define the app name. You can bypass this by defining the app name manually in one of the page level templates if you so choose.

Replicate provides a main cloning function, along with several hooks to control exactly how a field is duplicated based on its type, add info after cloning, and supports custom fields and entities. It is intended to developers and does not contain any GUI (for the moment anyway). The goal is to provide a way to easily clone any entity, and to allow developers to be able to control exactly how entities are replicated, based on their type or the fields they contain, and to be able to easily extend the replication control to custom fields or entities.

Using Type Rendering Mix you can instead decrease the font weight for browsers that use Core Text to render text. By only applying changes when Core Text is used you will achieve a more consistent rendering while preserving the accuracy of sub-pixel antialiasing. .tr-coretext { font-weight: 100; } Another use case for Type Rendering Mix is to disable web fonts when no antialiasing is applied. In the following example we fall back on “Verdana”, one of the core web fonts that is known to render well when antialiasing is disabled.

Test versions of IE using Virtual Machines that you download and manage in your own development environment.

This monthly vodcast series gives you an opportunity to participate in an open conversation with industry experts about the latest strategies and tools for developing visualizations and interactive experiences! Our first vodcast, on February 20th, will be co-hosted by NASA’s visualization expert, Robert Simmon who will discuss best practices for creating visualizations for NASA’s Earth Observatory. From use of color, to image choice, to use of symbols in mapping, Rob will take us through his tried and tested process for visually communicating data about our world.
