What is the new Expression equivalent for the Expressions Graphic Design CPT Program

unitys_serenity

I had tested the Microsoft Expressions Graphic Design CPT program, almost a year ago now. I had really liked the features that were in that program, where it had the options to add layers for pixels and vectors, as well as the overall user interface that was similar to windows and highly intuitive. I also had liked the way the brushes and colors were laid out for ease of modification and customization. I have looked at the new Expression Design program and it looks like many of the tools that ...

Using blend kills bluetooth drivers

RobMorrey

Running Vista ultimate on a high spec laptop. Using a bluetooth mouse and keyboard. Both work fine except if using Expression Blend (or the "cider" plugin in VS 2005). If blend has focus then my mouse and keyboard simply stop responding. Using the built in mouse I can navigate away from blend and after a few seconds my bluetooth devices start working.

Blend: Primeras impresiones d ela Suite Expression - First impressions about the Expression suite

wackorp

Hace poco estoy utilizando el paquete de software de microsoft expression 1. Debo aclarar que sus posibilidades me dejaron sorprendido sobre todo al ver los videotutoriales en la web principal, por lo cual recomiendo fortalecer este aspecto, al igual que tutoriales completos para su exploración a fondo y fortalecimiento en el mercado. Pienso que expression design carece de algunas herramientas standard del segmento, como la varita mágica, para seleccionar zonas del mismo color. Blend es un mundo...

Will not open files within a site

cmm324

I successfully connect to a web server using frontpage extensions. I can navigate, move through the files. I try to open one, and nothing happens. I double click a file, I see an hour glass, and then the hour glass goes away and nothing happens. I can connect, edit files, create new files and so on with visual web developer express edition. I am perplexed.

Absolute and Relative paths

LilChicken

Expression Web does not seem to be able to translate paths that begin with a "/" or a "~/". This requires you to use relative paths which is problamatic if a master page is used on pages in different directories.

Empty header tag kills Master Page

LilChicken

I had a master page with an empty title tag in it. When I made the site in VS 2005 it looked like this "" which was probably left over when we moved to page specific titles and should have been removed, but that is beside the point. After importing site into Expression Web it made the tag for XHTML compliance. Whenever I tried to save the master page it claimed there we no content regions.
