  10. What’s Windows Presentation Foundation? 4

  11. What’s Windows Presentation Foundation? • The Windows Presentation Foundation is Microsoft’s next generation UI framework to create applications with a rich user experience. It is part of the .NET framework 3.0 and higher. • WPF combines application UIs, 2D graphics, 3D graphics, documents and multimedia into one single framework. • Its vector based rendering engine uses hardware acceleration of modern graphic cards. This makes the UI faster, scalable and resolution independent.

  12. What’s Windows Presentation Foundation? • Next generation presentation subsystem for Windows • Unified programming model • Harness the power of new graphics hardware • Provide designers direct input into project development • Enables developers and designers to create visually stunning user interfaces

  13. WPF: Using the Hardware • Vector-based composition engine uses the PC’s graphics power • Quality is preserved with scale • CPU freed from graphics work • Gain capability from graphics card advances

  14. What type of Applications can be built 5

  15. What type of Applications can be built • WPF intended to replace both webforms and windows forms – apps can be built to run in a browser or a standalone window • Windows forms and WPF pages/windows can co-exist in the same application • One WPF page/window can have both types of controls on it • A new type of web application called XAML Browser Application XBAP (formerly Web Browser Application WBA)

  16. What do the applications look like • WPF intended to replace both webforms and windows forms – apps can be built to run in a browser or a standalone window • Windows forms and WPF pages/windows can co-exist in the same application • One WPF page/window can have both types of controls on it • A new type of web application called XAML Browser Application XBAP (formerly Web Browser Application WBA)

  17. Why use WPF? 6

  18. Why use WPF? • WPF is an especially great platform to use if your applications involve various media types.Ifyou need to incorporate video, or documents, 3D content and animated transitions between a sequence of images, or a combination of any of the above.  • WPF is also great if you need to create a skinned user interface, or if you need to bind to XML data, or dynamically load portions of a user interface from a Web service, or want to create a desktop application with a Web-like navigation style.

  19. How can I make it to do that? 7

  20. XAML C# VB.NET <Button Width="100"> OK <Button.Background> LightBlue </Button.Background> </Button> Button b1 = new Button(); b1.Content = "OK"; b1.Background = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.LightBlue); b1.Width = 100; Dim b1 As New Button b1.Content = "OK" b1.Background = New _ SolidColorBrush(Colors.LightBlue) b1.Width = 100 How can I make it do that? XAML = Extensible Application Markup Language • Easily toolable, declarative markup • Code and content are separate • Can be rendered in the browser / standalone application

  21. Advantages of WPF? 8

  22. Advantages of WPF? • The ability to make very rich UIs relatively easily. • Easier animation and special effects • Inherent scalability  • WPF builds on DirectX rather than WinAPI, harnessing the power of the client computer's graphics system thus giving much greater graphic rendering power • WPF uses a vector graphics system which means UIs are completely re-sizeable without loss of quality • WPF supports flow document model that gives a 'desktop publishing' quality of layout  • Supports ‘rich data visualisation’

  23. Disadvantages of WPF? 9

  24. Disadvantages of WPF? • WPF will not run on windows 2000 or lower. • WPF's in-box control suite is far more limited than that of WinForms.
