Using VS 2008, or Blend 3, is there any way I can get intellisense for the available properties when creating styles in XAML? I thought I heard there was a third-party freebie that did this. In the snippet below, I want intellisense for the properties like FontSize, Margin, Width, etc. <Style x:Key="MyTextBoxStyle" TargetType="TextBox"...

This should be really simple, but it's consumed multi-hours of my time, and I have no clue what's going on. I'm rendering a flat-colored full-screen quad to a texture, then reading back the result with glGetTexImage. It's GPGPU related, so I want the alpha value to behave as if it's any of the other three. I'm using an FBO, texture form...
I have a large WPF application and am trying to use Blend 3 to speed up my UI design on some portions of it. The problem I run into is that I have different skins that the user can use, so I load the ResourceDictionaries and Converters at runtime at the Application level. Because of this, when I open a .xaml file in Blend, it can't f...

In general, the "normal" blend mode equation looks like this: D = Sa * S + D * (1.0 - Sa) where D is destination color, Sa is source alpha and S is source color. Now, this works fine with fully opaque destination but I'd like to know how you would handle that with semi and fully transparent destination. When blending the source over...
I have created an image in Expression Design that I'm trying to import into Blend to create a button. I'm trying to make the button scale with it's container (most likely a grid) when i resize it in Blend. Unfortunately, the documentation for both products isn't very helpful. The xaml in design looks like the following: <Canvas xmlns="h...
I'm working on a set of controls that has a number of DependencyProperties. The properties are themselves DependencyObjects and created during the get method of the properties. During the Get method, they are also set back to the propertybag using the SetValue() method, so they are in fact valid in Xaml and their properties can be storyb...
See image at http://reggino.kingsquare.nl/tmp/actionscriptProblem.jpg Hi there, I can't get my head around this one...

In drawRect I have to blend this two layer, and the uppermost should have variable alpha depending on game-logic. What is the best (most performance optimized) way to do this? Is there any CGLayer, or CGContext function that sets s...
