Mix06 Thailand Demo

In this video, Fil Fortes provides a great overview of using Windows Presentation Foundation to create a vacation travelogue. Starting with a blank document, he builds a solution up using XAML, Visual Studio 2005 and Expression Interactive Designer that can be browsed over the web. Pretty neat!

Could we please have a download for this. I'm trying to promote WPF within my company and being able to give people AVIs rather than web links tends to result in more people actually looking at the material!

Right-clicking on the Watch button and choosing 'Save link as' appears to be working for me. The file is 72.5mb.

This rocks, thanks! I've been playing with Winfx (.Net 3.0) RC1 and everything in the demo works perfectly, including Interactive Designer!

"Testa", you'll need to install the latest beta bits for .Net 3.0, the SDK, Interactive Designer, etc...

Here's a wiki on Channel 9 that might help:

and here's where you can get Interactive Designer:

Make sure all of your beta applications are of the same release - as of today that's "RC1".

We have a interesting version of this XBAP application which adds a few features such as animation of the images in the list box based on mouse over and selection. I have posted this XBAP at www.travelswithcal.com/wpfzone/.

Since Filipe had first dibs on photos from Thailand and Cambodia, I decided to use some of my photos from Senegal instead. Now that the application is built, I've decided to see how much time is required to make additional albums (not of course including the time to tune up the photos in Photoshop or to write the accompanying text).
