Avalon isn't about Web/GUI convergence

Avalon isn't about Web/GUI convergence 10/28/2003 11:06 PM
Edwin Khodabakchian echoes what seems to be a common -- but I think incorrect -- perception that XAML, the XUL-like layout language revealed this week to be a building block of Longhorn's Avalon presentation subsystem, heralds some kind of Web/GUI convergence: ...

Today he points us at a new blog by a Nathan Dunlap, a Microsoft designer who's working on Longhorn technologies. Good stuff. I wish we had thousands of bloggers like Chris and Nathan.

Avalon 3D Hit Testing Demo

Avalon 3D Hit Testing Demo 06/28/2004 11:51 AM
One area where the Avalon platform blurs the line between 2D and 3D is with our hit testing services. It's easy to discover that we support traditional ray/mesh hit testing via the Model3D.HitTest(...) API, but rarely does the user want to initiate hit testing in world 3-space (this is especially true for the 3D scenarios targeted by Avalon). Consider this simple demo (binary, source) which displays a rotating teapot which changes color when the user clicks on it. (Demo works on Longhorn build 4074).
