Hi there,

As per my knowledge WPF is the engine which is playing role for creating, displaying, manipulating user-interfaces, documents, images, movies, and media in Windows Vista. It is the is a set of libraries which contain all functionality that you require to build, run, execute, and manage Windows Vista applications. That all i know about the same hope that this much information can low down your curiosity.

Thanks

Hi,



WPF programming carries device independent units of 1/96th inch. If the resolution of the display of video is 96 dpi, then wpf dius respond directly with pixels. If the resolution which you assuemed of the video display is 120 dpi, then WPF DIUs are equal to 1-1/3 pixels. Thats all i know about the same hope that this is enough for you.

Thank you

"Airspace" is a conceptual way of thinking about how the two halves of an interoperation application share the rendering areas within a common top-level window. This topic explains how the "airspace" concept might influence the presentation design as well as the input considerations for your WPF interoperation application.

WPF is a portion of Visual Studio.NET that embodies VB and expands on it. Vista 64 is not compatible with it. Vista 32 is. I have used WPF in the past and it is kinda a pain in the ass. Basically it is VB with the capabilities of making web forms.
