Coming soon: WPF Elements

Tagged as General, Products, WPF

WPF is a fantastic framework for creating modern rich user experiences, but for those looking to move from Windows Forms development to Windows Presentation Foundation, it is often a challenge.

One of the challenges is the lack of several “line of business” controls that many developers are familiar with in Windows Forms development. WPF Elements aims to help address this issue by providing many of the controls that end users expect as well as saving developers time by not having to create these controls from scratch.

Controls included in Mindscape WPF Elements:

• Multi-column tree view (aka TreeListView) control
• Masked text box control
• Numeric text box controls
  • Currency text box control
  • Integer text box control
  • Numeric text box control
• Spin (up/down) control
• DateTime controls
  • DateTime Picker
  • Drop down date picker control
  • Month calendar control
• Several “infrastructure” controls that you can use to build richer components out of these and other “elements”

We’re confident that this pack will make it easier for developers working on line of business applications to take up WPF with all its design and productivity benefits.

We will be shipping WPF Elements in the very near future, if you would like to be notified please email me and I will let you know as soon as we push the big red “release” button :-)
