I am evaluating the Beta xamCarouselListBox and it appears that it ignores the zOrder settings in the CarouselViewSettings. I am setting UseZOrder to true and have a collection of ZOrderEffectsStops. It is essentially a slight modification of the SkewXEffect Sample for the xamCarouselPanel (which does work). The xamCarouselListBox seems to simply arrange zOrder after the order in the list. Is this the intended behavior for this control?
I've pasted the code I am using below
Thanks.

Hi Matt -
Looking at your sample code, it appears that the XamCarouselListBox 'PersonCarousel' is using the ViewSettings resource called 'itunesViewSettings'. The problem is that itunesViewSettings has UseZOrder set to false. Perhaps you intended to use the other ViewSettings resource called itunesHViewSettings?
Setting UseZOrder to true should fix the problem.
Hi Joe,
Thanks for responding. Apologies for that. It looks like I might have pasted some code that was in transtion. Anyway, I cleaned up the code a bit and I am still seeing the problem. Just to make sure I am not going crazy I had a xamCarouselListBox and a xamCarouselPanel use the same CarouselViewSettings. I also took out the data binding just to make sure that wasn't the issue. I display both controls on the form and the xamCarouselPanel exhibits the expected zorder behavoir, but the xamCarouselListBox does not. I've pasted the XAML and the code I use to populate the controls below:
I have a screenshot. I've uploaded it here:

----------------------
code snippet that populates the data
{
Label NameLabel = new Label(); NameLabel.Content = result.Name; sp.Children.Add(NameLabel);
Label pathLabel = new Label(); pathLabel.Content = result.FullImagePath; sp.Children.Add(pathLabel);
sp = new StackPanel();
image = new Image(); image.Source = new BitmapImage(new Uri(result.FullImagePath)); sp.Children.Add(image);
}
My sample project doesn't seem to get through as an email - tried twice now. But it should be easy enough to replicate with the zorder I gave above.
I've also noticed I get the following exceptions in my output window:
System.Windows.Data Error: 35 : BindingExpression path error: 'ZIndex' property not found on 'object' ''b' (HashCode=11255991)'. BindingExpression:Path=ZIndex; DataItem='b' (HashCode=11255991); target element is 'CarouselListBoxItem' (Name=''); target property is 'ZIndex' (type 'Int32')
Looks related to the issue? If the zorder can't bind, that would be why it's disregarded.

I never got the Weds one! But received it now, and source code sent back.
Any news on this Joe? If you let me have your email I can send a test case.
