Hi, I am glad to meet PowerShell's interactive -sta option, but there is one trouble.

I want to draw WPF window and interactively change it on PowerShell.

How is it possible?

I like this promising script and the idea itself. I have a warning though:

The script invokes Set-PSDebug -Strict. It is nice for development, indeed, but it should be avoided in production scripts (or, say, published scripts) because this command changes session state globally and quite seriously – some other commands or scripts may fail after using this (even after dot-sourcing only) with typical error message “The variable ... cannot be retrieved because it has not been set yet.”

Thanks for the link :) do you realize that you repeatedly said "image" when you meant "imagine"?

I did release it as a module now -- I wrote it with those functions at the bottom (instead of inside the BEGIN{} block) because I intended to, but I couldn't figure out what I had to do to get modules to load: there's basically no information about them out here except a single example in the readme. I got some help now from one of the MVPs who had a little more info than what's publicly available.

Oh, and, I'm ...

Yes - I intentionally put in bad grammar and spelling mistakes to let everyone know that I'm really an engineer. :-)

Thanks for pointing that out - I fixed it.

Thanks Jaykul, and I'm sorry to be poor at English...

What I want to do is like the following.

$a = New-Object system.windows.window

$a.Left = 0

$a.ShowDialog() #If I use Show() I get next prompt, but WPF window doesn't work well.

$a.Left = 100 #In fact, prompt dosen't return, so I can't Enter this.

$a.Left = 200
