Host and Guest: Mike Benkovich, Senior Developer Evangelist, and Christian Schormann, Program Manager, Microsoft Corporation

Mike Benkovich delivers technical presentations around the U.S. as a developer tools evangelist on the MSDN team at Microsoft. He has worked in a variety of professional roles, including architect, project manager, developer, and technical writer.

You've seen him at MIX, PDC, and other conferences around the world. Christian's a toolmaker out of passion—the right tools give wings to our imagination. When he's not creating great music he's working at Microsoft on Expression Blend. Last year he introduced us to Sketchflow, we can't wait to see what's next!

Fortunately the tools team has been active in providing great solutions for harnessing the power of great design with the release of the Microsoft Expression suite.

However, implementing many of the same touch scenarios using WPF3.5SP1 or Silverlight 3/4 involves writing a fair bit more code. Furthermore, the touch APIs across WPF4, WPF3.5SP1, and Silverlight are different. 

 

The goal of this project is to simplify building common touch scenarios when using WPF 3.5 SP1 or Silverlight 3/4 by using Expression Blend Behaviors to provide a consistent way to implement these scenarios across WPF & Silverlight. Expression Blend Behaviors can be used within Visual Studio without a dependency on Expression Blend by downloading the Expression Blend 3 SDK. You can also find more Expression Blend Behaviors athttp://expressionblend.codeplex.com/ and http://tinyurl.com/ExpressionGalleryBehaviors.

Developer Challenges this episode solves...

How can you quickly display  and navigate a large, detailed image or a panorama of images on the web, and not be extremely slow to view?

What can you use to build a website that supports ASP.NET, Deep Zoom Composer images, AJAX, and Silverlight videos? … and do it quickly?

Do you wish you could find that perfect piece of code that you know you’ve written before?

You know how to write a query in SQL but how do you do it in LINQ? What tools are there to help you understand LINQ and what it is doing behind the scenes?

You have the source art from your design group, but how do you convert that into WPF or Silverlight?

You need to create a website for your group, and you would like to have a solid codebase as a starting point and get your feet wet in a real world Silverlight application.

Note: For those of you new to channel9 viewing, many different formats are available for download besides viewing in the default player; everything from Zune to WMV High Quality. Simply locate the dropdown menu below the embedded player on this page for your desired download selection. If the default view stops to buffer often, then I recommend trying to download WMV High Quality. You can clearly see code, all video and PowerPoint’s in High Def (HD) at full screen. It only takes about 15 to 20 minutes to download this episode at average home speed connections. The high def WMV file is a little over 315 Meg.

The Expression Blend 3.0 SketchFlow feature changes the game when it comes to both developers and designers becoming integrated on the development and design process. Prototype WPF and Silverlight Applications with amazing speed. Provide  review, feedback and documentation with ease.

What is it?
It’s a new set of features specifically targeted at making it easier and faster to design, communicate, and review prototypes for interactive applications and interactive content.

Download Site *: http://expression.microsoft.com/en-us/cc507094.aspx

Example Problem(s) it solves:

  • Provides a ‘white board’ approach to an application diagram for interactive flow
  • Similar to Powerpoint prototype:
  • but is non-linear
  • No upper limits – can use scribbles, draw UI elements or use standard UI elements
  • It’s a real Silverlight or WPF application
  • You can design screens from other screens
  • Reviewers can annotate prototypes while they are running

Installation Notes:
SketchFlow feature is not available yet (ETA sometime soon)

* Usage Notes: 3.0 is not out yet (however an Expression Blend 3 Preview is available without SketchFlow)
