Re: [OzSilverlight] Image manipulation in SL
I have seen questions like this come and go, and since I have not approached any homework where I'd have to this I have pretty much ignored the subject, although I am with a little bit of time right now and thought of giving it a 5min thought. First thing that came to me mind was that given that Isolated Storage is not enough, one could go with an independent server side kind of storage like Gears http://gears.google.com/, and if applicable do the image manipulation on the client using JavaScript, then somehow you will pass this manipulated bits to the server for the rest of the work to happen. But again here you might need some math to write and some more hard work that you might want to avoid. Again we always shoot for RAD (as of Rapid Application Development as in copy and paste from Google). So gave Google a little shoot on this matter and found that there are other people thinking similarhttp://almaer.com/blog/gears-future-apis-image-manipulation-api, and with even more time (which is even better), who has come with a future API for Gears to do Image Manipulationhttp://code.google.com/p/google-gears/wiki/ImageManipulationAPI, supporting things like resize, crop, rotate, flip and dinamyc drawing... again this is future and guess is under development. Now base on this an comments of people coming and going around I found that one can also use the HTML5 Canvas elementhttp://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#canvas, which supports a big subset of this tasks... more info can be found herehttp://www.groupsrv.com/computers/about318561.htmland here http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Canvas_tutorial:Using_images. Later you will be able to transfer this bits to the server for proper storage. Although seems like now you will end with a mixed managed / js application. I haven't check the SL 2.0 documentation on this subject yet, but I do know of some interesting tests that I've seen internally on image manipulation that might make it to the final bits... let's wait for Mix to see what the Pandora box will bring, in the mean time we can have some fun learning some fun JavaScript.

Unfortunately I too am suffering from the lack of IsolatedStorageSpace and graphic libraries in SilverLight 1.1 alpha refresh. I too want to do image manipulation on the client end (using the system.drawing library to do things such as compression, resizing, manipulation). I've searched long and hard for ways to do these things, and alas no luck. The only way I could do image manipulations is stream the raw image to the server and do it there (using the full system.drawing library available on the server) I'm crossing my fingers that SilverLight 2.0 will include the System.Drawing library (or equivalent classes) to do these manipulations. I do know that the IsolatedStorage size will be addressed in the new version come March 5th (Mix 08).

Anyway, I came up with a project I wanted to try with Silverlight, it would basically be an image uploader, with the option to do some basic manipulations *before* uploading the file. After some searching around a bit, I found the Flickr like Silverlight Multi-File Upload Tool, http://advertboy.wordpress.com/2007/12/20/flickr-multi-picture-uploader-done-in-silverlight/which is really cool (well done Jose!), that helped me out on how to do the uploading functionality of my little project. I however quickly ran into problems with the next step, ie. the image manipulation. One of the main things I wanted to do, is to scale down large images(say 3-4mb sized) but with the current 1mb isolated storage limit I can't really seem to come up with a reasonable solution. Any suggestions?? (And yes I'm aware that this will be addressed in the Beta that's coming and the answer might be to wait until then...)

Re: [OzSilverlight] Anyone going to MIX08?
Sup Scott, Not from Australia but from Costa Rica (I know the other side of the world) but the list has worked out for me so far... and I will be attending Mix (even trying to get a spot to present on, but that's a different story)... I've been working on a really cool video player for an American tv show and we have already close on most our QA part and we are looking forward to go live in the following weeks as some marketing stuff is still in the works... I will keep u posted as when that happens... In the mean time I am also a bit involved with the NBC Olympics project, which is starting to look great in the drawing boards as well as another Olympics project that will be announced shortly.

Re: [OzSilverlight] Best Practices in Memory Usage for SL 1.0
Well actually all objects that I create are actually in use, although there are some that are created from a downloaded xaml file and reused about 40+ times in the same stage, as a grid of thumbnails. Therefore given that this are dinamically created they are not added to the main tree of components because of the naming conflicts. Although there are some objects that do are part of the main tree and for which the question is it more efficient to mantain references in memory for this objects, or just do a quick search for the object every time is needed?

Re: [OzSilverlight] Best Practices in Memory Usage for SL 1.0
Hi Adam, we are actually creating them like that (at least for the thumbnails, with the true flag) and grabbing the reference at creation for all, although for those created with false, we wanted to know if by not keeping them in referenced memory would be more efficient than doing the find. But I guess we are doing the right thing then, creating them with the namescope param in true or false as needed and getting the reference at creation time. Cool, Thanks for the prompt response. G.

Video doesn't play anymore on any sample or piece of code I've put together that actually runs on another box . I tried uninstalling v1.1 and getting 1.0 and then back to 1.1 but it just doesn't work, I am in a really time crunch here with this as I need to get this working by Monday, and given I will be on a place most of the day tomorrow I really appreciate any help in getting clean my box from SL and getting it back on shape. Somehow I think it has something to do with I hibernate my box last night having 2 browsers (IE7 FF) open running the plugin... Any help will be appreciated! Thanks, G. -- ___ Gilbert A.
