I just don't think that it's appropriate to spam a serious forum.

Technically, it's impossible to spam when you're omnipotent.

God only created a single man. That man in turn is responsible for the current mess we're in.

That's exactly what a spammer does: he creates a software (for example) that produces all the spam mails. Do you think that the spammer writes all these mails by hand, I don't think so?
So did God before that: he made the ultimate spam and garbage producing creature - the man that is capable of self reproducing the ultimate dream of a spammer-god!

WPF is meant for vector graphics, not for bitmaps.
If you want to display a bitmap in WPF and need to be able to efficiently update it in memory, look at the WriteableBitmap[^] class.
If you want to render WPF vector contents onto a bitmap, take a look at RenderTargetBitmap[^].

Danke! The suggestion seems like a good idea! Thank you!

Hello,
"Applause" for Daniel Grunwald, who, imho, gave a considerate and appropriate response to the OP.
Given the OP's question was broad enough that you could see the earth's curvature in the distance ...
Still, imho, he responded with some "redeeming" sense of humour to the first rapier slash of JSOP.
I've voted all the (imho) sarcastic and needless posts #1 : this is a technical forum, not the lounge! And I've voted up the OP just for the sake of sheer contrariness.
Gentlemen and Gentlewomen, I ask you whether it benefits CodeProject as a whole to use the technical forums as a "dumping ground" for "interpersonal static" ?
Isn't it more valuable (I'm asking rhetorically) to just politely tell the OP that the question is so broad as to be off-topic, or unanswerable, or to suggest to OP that they do a search of the many technical articles on CP that have to with drawing, drawing surfaces, bitmaps, shapes, etc. in both WPF and WinForms ?
To those of you who wish to admire your "godliness" : I suggest you look in a mirror
best, Bill

This is an error. The engine can arrange and combine numerical quantities as if they were letters or any other general symbols; and it fact it might bring out its results in algebraical notation, were provisions made accordingly."

Anyone know of a free download for the Ribbon control? I'm also looking for some cool free icons that I can download and use in my WPF application?

I'm trying to port an application that heavily relies on the classes in the System.Web namespace (a lot of http requests and responses).
The problem is, I can't seem to find anything similar in Silverlight. Am I missing something, or is Silverlight that crippled? :S

No, you're not missing anything. In order to provide the full .NET functionality though, would require Silverlight to be downloaded as a several hundred megabyte download - so, a lot of functionality has been omitted.

So, a web app framework doesn't have any way to send/receive http requests? Darn... that's a suprise

Yes it does - it's perfectly possible for Silverlight to work with WCF using basicHttpBinding.

Please try WebClient or HttpWebRequest

Thanks. I somehow missed those.
Is there a way to make any of these work synchronously?
I'm trying to avoid a major reorganization of a working code because of asynchronous requests.

Just a guess...
<Grid>
<Image Source="img.png"/>
<TextBlock Text"All your baze b3l0ngz to Us, Muwahawa!">
</Grid>
A train station is where the train stops. A bus station is where the bus stops. On my desk, I have a work station....

As Lloyd has indicated, the easy way to do this is to place your image on the form first, and then place a TextBlock on the form as well. Use the margin property to change the position of the text.

Hi,
I can not create a silverlight project in visual studio 2008 .net 3.5, sp1.
In add remover programs I can see the Microsoft silverlight version 3 is installed.
I have also installed Microsoft Tools Alpha Refresh for visual studio 2008.
On trying to create a silverlight project in visual studio, the error message is:
"The project type is not supported by this installation"
Any thoughts please?
Thanks

Silverlight required VS2008 SP1, which I believe is already installed. Secondly you need to install Silverlight SDK 3.0 and Silverlight Toolkit.
Installing these packets will solve your problem.
