I am working with a library that renders part of its state as an SVG document. I would like to render this in either a Winforms or a WPF environment. Is there currently a way to do this? If not, I could modify the library to use a more general rendering strategy, and then add an XML adapter to restore the original functionality, but t...
At some point I would like to write some type of dynamic material-handling module for my 3D rendering engine. It should be portable (GL, D3D, etc). And when I say "dynamic" I mean a module that is able to load material definitions and data runtime (through my resource management module). The material module should cope with basic primit...
I am using Delphi 7. I have the reporting mechanism implemented using Rave. Also exporting to HTML, PDF and TXT is used. There is a problem though: When user saves report into file directly (without previewing it first), file extension is not added to the filename by Rave. So the file created looks like Report (instead of Report.pdf) an...

Hi. I have a stylistic question, really. I am wondering which is the best, fastest, most "iterative" way to generate client HTML? The road I am currently traveling is to use WCF (or a DLL) to expose a method that can be called depending on the page being loaded: private AuthClient auth = null; PageLoad { auth = new AuthClient...
I'm trying to improve the user perception of page load time of some web pages. These web pages take about 5 seconds to complete loading and rendering. The overall time is fine; but on clicking a link to load a page, nothing happens for about 4.5 seconds and then the whole page appears in one shot. This spoils the user experience, since t...
When our application is viewed on two particular machines, one is Vista and one XP, we have the effect on some text boxes, when focused, the left and right borders are "soft", and when you type past the right border, it disappears altogether, like this: On all other machines that we tested it looks fine, however. For all its worth, b...
I have a site a client is trying to use that doesnt work on their machine using IE7 version 7.0.5730.13CO. We know it works on version 7.0.5730.13 with all. By 'work' I mean it renders different and the javascript functions differently. I found a site (basically the only site I could find on google about it) that said the CO was for Cor...
I was wondering if anyone has done any tests with background images. We normally create a background that repeats at least in one direction (x or y or both). Example Let's say we have a gradient background that repeats in X direction. Gradient height is 400px. We have several possibilities. We can create as small image as possible (1 pi...
Is there any ways/possibilities that I can replace a string with a UserControl? apart from LoadControl and adding it to another control like page or placeholder. The reason is that a user add a content on the page and put a string like {uc:test} and I would like to parse this text and replace {uc:test} with a UserControl. in other wor...
I have a table of data which is generated dynamically with Javascript. Every few minutes the page refreshes the data by firing off an Ajax request, getting the data back from the server, and replacing the data in the table. This is pretty standard, and the table ends up looking like this: This works just fine if I generate the data ...
Hi everyone, I'm doing a theatrical performance, and I need a program that can read images from a folder and display them full screen on one of the computer's VGA outputs, in a predetermined order. All it needs to do is start with the first image, and when a key is pressed (space bar, right arrow), smoothly cross-fade to the next image....
Hi, I would like to know if it is possible to modify Chrome or Firefox display settings, so that it would only show rectangles of HTML DOM objects? What I want to do is to decrease rendering engine job amount as much as possible, so it would only build layout of the page. Thank you! ...
I have a problem about rendering a 3D mesh object. I prepared the 3D mesh object in C# and rendered it. Unfortunately, the edges that must be sharp are camber. Could one explain me what the reason is. I am using visual studio 2008 - C# Express Edition. The 3D closed mesh object has appr. 66.000 vertexes. At the same time, it has not ...
My concern are quadratic bezier triangles which I'm trying to tesselate for rendering them. I've managed to implement this by subdividing the triangle recursively like described in a wikipedia page. Though I'd like to get more precision to subdivision. The problem is that I'll either get too few subdivisions or too many because the amou...
How much faster is it to use a base64/line to display images than opposed to simply linking to the hard file on the server? url(data:image/png;base64,.......) I haven't been able to find any type of performance metrics on this. I have a few concerns: You no longer gain the benefit of caching Isn't a base64 A LOT larger in size than...
I am trying to measure how long it takes for different Silverlight charting libraries (e.g. Silverlight Control Toolkit, Visifire, Telerik) to load on screen. My problem is that I can only measure the time until the control is loaded and drawing starts to take place on the screen, however rendering takes more time because of animation e...
Hello, all, I am trying to find out a way to put a small jpg inside a javascript variable so that it can be rendered to the webpage. Even though i think this should be possible i don't exactly know how to go about this. So all should happen in client-side. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks in advance Mario ...
I realize the question of a good CSS editor has been asked dozens of times here on StackOverflow. However, I am specifically looking for one that has preview functionality for a variety of browser rendering engines. Most importantly, it MUST be able to render IE6, IE7, and Safari 3.0. Price is not a factor. I have been looking at Aptana...
