Nice examples,but Adobe's SVG plug-in has supported IE's binary behavior implementation,so I can write svg tags directly in html page-much more comfortable.But IE's VML implementation goes even further.It supports HTML/VML interleaving,so I can mix up HTML content in VML markup,essentialy using HTML elements in context of VML-very powerful staff,for example I can use "Rectangle" with rounded corners shape,apply some vector/bitmap effects(like shadow),but inside of it place regular html input/select/table elements instead of VML,so I have beautiful web form without much effort.

By the way,WPF/E doesen't support templating/binding constructs and it's not extendable(closed set of elements)-that WPF is all about(from developer perspective),so it's not WPF at all but another SVG like implementation IMHO.

Thanks.

Oh,NO,there's no styling/Resources handling!SVG has support styling on css level.

Animation is nice addition though:-)

Tim,

I've been developing to Flash/Actionscript for a while, so I've been looking forward to wpf/e... I don't think _opaque_ in your description of swf does justice to the format, however (see: http://eokyere.blogspot.com/2006/12/opaque-swf-format.html)

Meanwhile, if I develop on a mac, am I shut out of wpf/e?

Thanks,

Emmanuel
