Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) is the recommended technology for creating modern Windows desktop apps. Whether you want to develop traditional user interfaces or integrate 3D graphics, audio/video, animation, dynamic skinning, touch, rich document support, speech recognition, or more, WPF enables you to do so in a seamless, resolution-independent manner that scales from small tablets to large TVs. WPF 4.5 Unleashed is the authoritative book that covers it all, in a practical and approachable fashion, authored by WPF guru and Microsoft architect Adam Nathan.

Covers everything you need to know about Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML)
Examines the WPF feature areas in incredible depth: controls, layout, resources, data binding, styling, graphics, animation, and more
Delves into topics that aren’t covered by most books: 3D, speech, audio/video, documents, effects
Shows how to create popular UI elements and leverage built-in controls such as the new Office-style Ribbon
Demonstrates how to create sophisticated UI mechanisms, such as Visual Studio-like collapsible/dockable panes
Explains how to create first-class custom controls for WPF
Demonstrates how to create hybrid WPF software that leverages Windows Forms, DirectX, ActiveX, or other non-WPF technologies
Explains how to exploit desktop features, such as Jump Lists and taskbar customizations, and the same toast notifications used by Windows Store apps
