great! So what about the controls. Why not support textbox and button? I'm really scratching my head on that one so please tell me this is not a design decision.
Hi,
Great video, tool, and overall vision! Played with it yesterday a lot. Seems to work in all the advertised environemnts but just curious on a number of things.
1) MMS: WPFE does not seem to support that protocol at all. I saw all the video sample you did but I guess this technology does not work for streaming.
2) Controls: There appear to be no controls whatsoever in WPFE; meaning everything has to be done from scratch everytime. I mean there isn't even a textbox! What's up with that? Will it change? I mean it's great and all as far an animation but that puts
this technology right down there with the first version of Flash! Furthermore, there are a lot of us who love the web but HATE javascript. Even though you did a great job of standardizing, I still want my c# especially if i need complex coding to get any
work done.
3) .NET integration: is this a myth or will we see a lightwieght runtime incorporated into WPFE? In the Mike Harsh video he used C# to change opacity if I remember correctly. has this been abandoned or is it still in play. Also, will this be a strictly
windows technology (the CLR Integration aspect) or are you planning to package a runtime for MAC as well.
This is awesome but I have a quick question. What exactly do I need to download in order to et this thing up and running in VS.NET. I see that with the SDK there is some msi for adding templates to VS.NET but it does not seem to work. I'm assuming this
is because I have not installed something.
