New versions of Expression Graphic Designer and Interactive Designer available!

Our January 2006 CTPs are available!  https://www.microsoft.com/products/expression/en/default.mspx

What's new??

  • We've got official names now.  (Acrylic => Graphic Designer; Sparkle => Interactive Designer)
  • Interactive Designer is publicly available for the first time!
  • Exporting to XAML from Graphic Designer (EGD) has been greatly improved.

The XAML exporter is the only real new feature for this CTP for EGD. 

[There is, however, something important buried in there if you do any sort of interop with Office apps.  I'll post about it later today, so keep an eye out. ;)]
