Hi,
I'm looking for a way to flip an Image Object horizontally and vertically in C#/WPF.
I couldn't find anything on the web. Hope someone can help me.
Thanks,
Kevin

In order to flip an image, you need to use the ScaleTransform. For instance:
<ScaleTransform ScaleX="1" ScaleY="-1"> This flips over the Y.

Wow thanks.
I've been searching for over an hour. And now I've got it in less then 10 minutes.
Thank you for your help.

No problem. Glad to help.

Kevin,
Have you downloaded Express Blend yet? If not, currently the March 2008 Preview is free.
The is a SUPER GUI WPF tool that can help you accomplish tasks by setting properties and learn WPF at the same time by studying the XAML code.

Full version completely free for me  - Google "Microsoft Dreamspark". I know it's a clever marketing ploy but you gotta love them for it. Currently installing Server 2003 onto a spare hard-drive ready for return to Uni in three weeks (planning to leave the desktop here at home now I've got a new laptop).

Ed,
Blend has been free since it came out, because they keep releasing new beta and preview versions.
At some point, a purchase will be required unless you have an MSDN subscription, etc.
Super product!

I realise that it's been free with respects to the betas but if people want a "stable" version then I thought it wasn't?
Sorry just wanted to shout out about the DreamSpark project because it's so great

Very stable. We have the preview in production and have all the betas in production since day one.
It's just a super XAML tool, so it really won't hurt your application the build.
A few very minor items to get used to, but he payback is huge.

I'd certainly look into it but at the moment my programming seems to being steered towards Delphi  (Uni) and ASP.NET.
|

Thanks for the suggestions, however I think I'd better get on with revision rather than messing around with Blend 
|
|
|

Nope end of first year and I haven't really paid that much attention through the year 
|
|
|
|
|
Ahhh. But seriously though - Delphi???? This is the reason grads have so much trouble finding decent work when they leave Uni - lack of practical experience (although you should be all right in that respect).
|

|

Though not a Computer Science degree as you might think. Electrical & Electronics Engineering for me, although at the moment I am doing much better in the software & digital electronics side of things, suprise suprise

Pete & Ed,
Pete is correct. The first time i saw Blend, I went nuts. AHHHHHHHHHHHH,,,,, WHAT'S THIS?????????
Then I started to feel the love and look at Blend as a designer tool, then went around giving presentations showing developers this is the coolest tool, with an "artboard" and "property inspector."
I used lynda.com for two months and also have a subscription to Total Training.
The Microsoft Expressin site also has many links to free training material.
In attition, you can surf the web, many people have videos out there, showing off what they did with Blend.

How does XNA relate to DirectX and vice versa?
|
|
|
|
|
XNA is a gaming framework built on top of DirectX. It's like asking how does a button relate to GDI+.

|

Doesn't it also depend on what part your using?
I've been looking into audio support for my app recently and it seems that XAudio2 is going to be a complete wholesale replacement of DirectSound. XAudio2 being cross platform between XBox and PC.
Hmm ... I'm really not making any progress on my audio implementation either

Interesting - I've not looked into DirectSound recently (beyond having done some stuff with DirectX filters for Sonar).

Cool. I love Sonar (it just fits easier with my being a guitarist), and I compose on Sibelius.

So XNA is some kind of a wrapper to DirectX, just as WPF is, correct?
