Presentation

Learn how to easily create applications that target Windows users, broad-reach Web users, and mobile device users faster and more easily than ever. The quality of presentation bar is rising across the board — from web to smart client. This track covers in depth the technologies that allow users to create great applications targeted at Web users (ASP.NET, IE7), building visually compelling, powerful, and productive client applications (Windows Forms, Windows Presentation Foundation) and building applications that take advantage of the latest generation of mobile devices (.NET Compact Framework). Be among the first to learn about the user experience guidelines for client applications in the Windows Vista™ timeframe, how to use Windows Presentation Foundation to build breakthrough high fidelity applications, how to best prepare your existing applications for Windows Vista-era technologies using ASP.NET 2.0 and Windows Forms 2.0, and much more.

But... I thought vectors were "cartoony"...

Manuel Clement writes "... I know what you mean. Here is a screenshot of Sparkle's drawing surface. It shows something I drew using Avalon vectors (Path, Ellipse, etc) about 2 years ago, if I remember correctly... WPF (Avalon) has a very nice rendering engine. Things look very nice scaled big or even very small.

The coolest thing is that after I drew this..."

Quartz Designer
