Lets say I want to make a control to select any integer number by dragging on a "bar" with numbers:

(156 is selected)

Mousedown on "159" and dragging towards the left and then doing mouseup changes the control to this:

(160 is selected)

I've been experimenting for the past 3 hours but I'm inexperienced in Silverlight so I'm having problems getting started.

My current guess is I should seperate this into 2 steps:

Step 1: Build this control without swiping behavior. Just 2 buttons to go up a number or go down a number

Step 2: Replace the buttons by handling mouse events.

With my limited knowledge I think I would manage building a crappy control that does this, with very messy xaml and c# and lots of headaches when trying to apply styling and fancy state transitions, but I was hoping some xaml wizards could get me started with the basic approach?

Edit:

This is an implementation of what I'm trying to achieve in Silverlight:
