• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) AJAX style XAML generation on the server?

  Hello, does anybody know, if there is a way to create XAML with C# or VB dynamically on the server, and interpret it, without compiling, at the client Similar to HTML with JavaScript in today’s AJAX based browser apps Regards Thomas Hi Mike, thank you for your answer! Why is IIS 7 needed to achieve this I think any web server/programming langue can create XAML. But this is not my problem. My problem is, that pure generated XAML without C# or VB works well. But when I generate a simple XAML document with, say an C# event handler, I get an error on the client “compilation required”. Bye Thomas ...Show All

• Windows Forms Real Semi-Transparent panel

  I created a class that inherits from panel. The idea is to put it in front of the form to avoid the user from using the controls while an async function is taking place. I managed to make it completely transparent by turning on WS_EX_TRANSPARENT as in the clase below. public class TransparentPanel : Panel { protected override CreateParams CreateParams { get { CreateParams cp = base .CreateParams; cp.ExStyle |= 0x20; // Turn on WS_EX_TRANSPARENT return cp; } } Now, I'd like that when the TransparentPanel is over the form, it looks grayed-out. Is it possible to do that Thanks a lot in advance Create a new Image in Microsoft Photo Editor: Col ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Creating XPS docs , without having any Source UI

  Sorry for this ambiguous subject line :) We are having a Usercontrol (all code based, no xaml) in .net 3.0, this usercontrol, shows us some pictorial representation of data for a certain period of time say 6 hrs. After each 6 hrs. we want a pic / snapshot of this UI in the form of a file, so that in later course we should be able to review it / print it. Right now, it's like taking the picture snap from the device context itself (it was a GDI code in .net 1.0, which we revamped completely to WPF). The point is we can still do tthat but what happen if somebody closed the UI thing, then obviously we can't force the user to open it again, just ebcause i want a snapshot of the data at the end of 6 hrs. So what i think is If poss ...Show All
