Sun is showing of some screen shots of their upcoming desktop, called Mad Hatter. That is one ugly skin! Come on Sun, is that really the best you can do? With Aero and Aqua around you smell of a mid-90’s system.

Corel has released version 2.1 of their SVG viewer. New features include:

  • CAD-like visualization. The context menu now offers a choice between three settings - accurate, light, or heavy - for the rendering of thin lines. Accurate offers users high geometry precision, the light setting will display all thin lines as faint lines; and finally the heavy setting, renders all thin lines as 1px lines. This feature will improve the visualization of converted files from CAD/CGM applications to SVG.
  • Improved Scripting Support: Corel SVG Viewer now provides more support for legacy scripted SVG content. Supporting accessor functions ‘get and set’ so that existing applications created by script writers will continue to run as you include or migrate to Smart Graphics applications. The viewer alos offers support for the ECMAScript Interval and Timeout functions.
  • Improved Performance: Users will experience a speed improvement when viewing SVG files with CSV 2.1.

UIPAB introduction

builder.com got an introduction to User Interface Process Application Block (UIPAB). You just have to love that acronym :-)

UIPAB is Microsoft’s take on how to build WinForms applications using the MVC pattern. Haven’t tried the actually code but you would probably be interested if you’re building advanced WinForms applications.

SVG for wikis

Danny Ayers has played around with a WikiWhiteBoard based on SVG. From the image it looks promising. I wonder how hard it would be to build one like that for Openwiki. I’ll might give it a try.
