Silverlight 4 beta available
For those of you who love to code on the bleeding edge, check out the beta release of Silverlight 4. Please note that the development environment is limited to Visual Studio 2010 (see last post).
As has become the norm for Silverlight releases, there’s a slew of decent features to get to grips with. Microsoft will still receive a bunch of criticism over their RIA direction but .NET developers will be in their element.
What’s new?
In no particular order:
- Right mouse click
- Print support
- Clipboard
- Mousewheel support
- Interop (for trusted OOB applications only)
- HTML support with a new WebBrowser control (unfortunately limited to OOB applications)
- TOAST windows (OOB again!)
