Hi all,
I am new in DirectX. 
I am using Axiom Engine to develop small 3D application using DirectX 9 (February 2007) released with C#.
I wana load .X File in my application.
But how can load?
is there any source code or link for DirectX C#?
Can any one please help me.
Thanks in advance.

Im not sure about examples using that engine, but a quick google search comes up with plenty of beginner tutorials for DirectX.
If your using C++ I'd recommend this site which provides step by step explanations of the basics.
If you using C# I'd recommend downloading the XNA framework, learning the basics there, and then maybe later working your way back into the more difficult languages. DirectX in C++ in particular can be a big learning curve and the endless errors may eat away at your motivation. XNA is pretty easy and has alot of good examples and (easily understood) documentation, so the fun aspect will stick.
If your still content on using DirectX instead of XNA in C#, then I used the rocket commander tutorials on the microsoft website (coding for fun section).
Mark.

I remembered to see an article about character segmentation in late September or early October, but I can't find it now. The article is about segmentation of touched characters for OCR, like in "WY", or "XY". If someone know where it is, can you please tell me? Thanks a lot!

Hey
Does any one know of an exporter for .max to .x files. I have the trial version of Autodesk 3D Studio max 8 and also
installed a panda plugin that does this for versions 6 and 7.
However it comes back and says it cannot convert this file type.
Thanks

I'm working on an application that displays several large image files simultaneously, and operations on each of the files takes place simultaneously as well, for example when you zoom on one image it zooms all of the images, etc.
I'm using PictureBoxes to display the images.
To do the zooming I first used simply set the SizeMode to zoom and changed the size of the PicutreBox allowing its default methods to resize the image accordingly, as shown below:
public void ZoomImage(double ZoomFactor)<br />
{<br />
zoomFactor = ZoomFactor;<br />
pbImage.SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.Zoom;<br />
pbImage.Height = Convert.ToInt32(Math.Round(origHeight * ZoomFactor));<br />
pbImage.Width = Convert.ToInt32(Math.Round(origWidth * ZoomFactor));<br />
MaximumSize = new Size(pbImage.Width + 10, pbImage.Height + 30);<br />
pbImage.Invalidate();<br />
}
The problem here is that the image quality was poor. I'm not sure what interpolation algorithm it uses to do the resizing, but its not a good one.
Then I tried using a methods that I got from The Code Project that uses Graphics.DrawImage, the core of this code is shown below:
<br />
Bitmap tempBitmap = new Bitmap(pbImage.Width, pbImage.Height, PixelFormat.Format32bppRgb);<br />
<br />
tempBitmap.SetResolution(origionalImage.HorizontalResolution, origionalImage.VerticalResolution);<br />
<br />
Graphics bmGraphics = Graphics.FromImage(tempBitmap);<br />
<br />
bmGraphics.InterpolationMode = System.Drawing.Drawing2D.InterpolationMode.HighQualityBicubic;<br />
<br />
bmGraphics.DrawImage(origionalImage, 0, 0, pbImage.Width, pbImage.Height);<br />
<br />
bmGraphics.Dispose();<br />
<br />
pbImage.Image = tempBitmap;
The problem with this code is that it is extremely slow. When zooming to 300% it takes about a minute to resize 9 images on the screen. Using the other method it took about half a second.
Likewise, this methods actually creates new full sized images in memory, which ends up taking over a gig of memory then just to zoom in, which then starts paging and makes it even slower.
So, what are some other alternatives? I need to be able to zoom in using high quality interpolation, but PictureBox doesn't allow you to specify the interpolation method, but the method above, which does result in good picture quality, is orders of magnitude too slow and using too much memory.

Hi,
this is what I would do for simplicity and performance:
- get rid of all those PictureBoxes, replace them each by a Panel;
- load the original images in Bitmap objects once;
- don't create new Bitmaps at different resolutions;
- in each Panel's OnPaint handler simply draw the corresponding image using one of the many
Graphics.DrawImage() overloads that allow to specify both the source Rectangle and the
destination Rectangle, resulting in automatic pan&zoom capabilities.
- when the pan/zoom parameters change, call Invalidate() on all Panels that need a repaint.

Hey all. I posted this here because I don't see a specific WPF forum.
I'm curious if anyone else has wanted to or figured out a way to draw rectangles with only certain of the four corners rounded (for e.g. the bottom corners only). I bet I could sit down and work out a way to do this, but I'm new to WPF so wanted to see if it's been done before.
Thanks,
Logan

You can do it, but you have to get a bit tricky. The window border itself can’t be changed, but you can make a borderless window with a shape inside of it that does what you want. You then have to enable dragging the ‘window’ based on dragging its contents, but it’s not a big deal.
Start by setting the following styles on the window:
WindowStyle="None"
Background="{x:Null}"
AllowsTransparency="True"
ResizeMode="NoResize"
Inside this window you’ll need to place a Border object. Inside the Border you can place whatever you want. Now on the Border set its CornerRadius to something like CornerRadius="0,22,0,22" and set your fill and stroke as desired.
Finally, you’ll need to be able to reposition the window regardless of where the user clicks. Fortunately WPF lets you capture events both on the way down (Preview) and on the way back up through the element stack (Element). So to complete your project, in your window class add the following code:
protected override void OnMouseLeftButtonDown(MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
base.OnMouseLeftButtonDown(e);
DragMove();
}
And that’s it. You can use this trick for creating windows of literally any shape. Even animation should be supported, though I haven’t tried it. Disclaimer: I’ve only tried this on Vista. I think it SHOULD work on XP, but the Desktop Window Manager in Vista may make a difference.

Ha ha ha. I just realized you only needed the rounded rectangle and I took you all the way to the rounded window. Oh well, all you needed was the CornerRadius bit. And I think you even wrote an article already? Well, good job!

Haha, yes I wrote an article for a Shape-derived class called PartiallyRoundedRectangle before I found out about Border's ability to do essentially the same thing. I found out about that through the article though, so it wasn't a complete waste of time. 
Thanks for the in-depth instructions for making rounded borderless windows even if it's not exactly what I was asking for.

Hi,
I'm actually writing a CLIENT/SERVER TCP/IPv6 application, under Microsoft Visual Studio C++. In which the SERVER is a file server application and the CLIENT is a "Multiple Document Interface (MDI)" and "RichEdit Text" application that can open multiple files from the server.
I would like to add a Toolbar window into my MDI frame window, to do this, I've created the Toolbar window with the "CreateToolBarEx" function.
But the created Toolbar window is located in the client area of the MDI frame window and each time a new MDI child window is created to hold a new document, it erases the Toolbar window in the client area.
My question is how can I do :
1) To change the client area size so that fits
height(MDI Frame window) - height(Toolbar window)
OR
2) To include the Toolbar window into the
non-client area like the Menubar and the Titlebar
So that the MDI child window can't anymore erase the Toolbar window in the client area.
Thanks,
Alain NGUYEN
