Hi

My colleague Mike Taulty adn I are currenting building some Win7 MT examples.

We are using the Multitouch Vista project with the win7 driver - all working very well.

I’ve been working on the MT events in WPF4 playing with VS2010 and the .Net 4 beta 1.

Mike is working at the Win7 native api level.

I have videos below, Mike will have blog posts and videos later (blog here )

Anyone else doing stuff? Be create to see the things folks are producing.

Note we know their will be some event renaming in Beta 2 so don’t go building that enormous WPF 4 API just yet!

Cheers
Paul

I currently work on a main application with some kind of an ibar at the main screen and a menu system to start other applications like this picture stuff or other mt applications.
I will try to get some pics or a video of it online

are your Win7 MT examples available for download?

hi again,

one questen to you or to the hole community:
are multi-user applications possible with this kind of software setup?

I´ve tried it for a while but I didn´t found a solution. (for example: let 2 people rotae/scale two different pictures at the same time on a big table)

Win7 only allows touch interaction with one hwnd at a time, but within an hwnd you can most definitely build multi-user experiences.

Oh, you guys work for Micrsoft, nice.

In your video, the touch simulator(Multi-mice), Is it multipoint SDK?

I think he uses MTVista and MultipleMice as input provider.

anyone knows some usefull, good tutorials/information pages how to use multi-touch with .net4.0 ??

I´m still using some things but I think thats only a very small amout of the possibilities.

here?

how did I get this ScatterView in .net4 as mentioned in the second video?

(the ScatterView is part of the surface sdk and will not be available in wpf/net4 without this sdk, I am right? )

@paulfo:
“Some internal demos that I’ve made to work on VS2010 and .Net4 beta 1 - using a WPF4 implementation of the Surface ScatterView control (or something that looks a lot like it)”
how/where can I geht this control?

ScatterView can be found in “Visual Studio 2010 and .NET Framework 4 Training Kit” - http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=752CB725-969B-4732-A383-ED5740F02E93&displaylang=en

Anyone using VS2010? the build function seems to be very buggy… 4 out of 5 times the whole VS just hanged. i’m using a newly installed windows 7 RC.

anyone know How do i enable a simple button touch?

edit: got it… just use the click handler…

thx mate

hi,

anyone tried the nativ drag&drop features of .net with a touch application? I want to “move” a picture (in the pictures application) over/to a phone picture to start a bluetooth send event.
I tried several drag&drop approaches but I never get the final drag&drop event, maybe because of the “new” touch manipulation technique (translate, ect.) of the picture?

hi,

anyone playing with the ScatterView control?

i ve a problem:
i created my own UserControl and set it to ScatterViewItem.Content property…
however, when i scale the ScatterViewItem, the content doesn’t scale. is there a setting i need to set it???

and i can’t move 2 ScatterViewItems at the same time. it just move the active one/topmost one…

need solutions

I have the same problem. My rectangles/pictures on my canvas don`t have a position on the canvas. Canvas.getleft and gettop are always the same values (as set on startup).

Does anybody know how to get the actual position after the ManipulationDelta-Events?
