If you open up the WP7 settings app there is a pivot control, and when you select an item in the list (say, the WiFi settings item) it has a nice, pretty navigation to a subpage where you tell it exactly what settings you want.
I want to do the same thing in my app - have a list of items, and when an item is selected, I want to navigate to a new subpage in the same beautiful manner. This seems like a simple task, but I don't think I'm searching for the right terms in Google. How is that effect achieved?
Please see these tutorials on making wp7 navigation transitions:
