#winui3 — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #winui3, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Um #Windows11 schneller zu machen, will #Microsoft in Zukunft auf native Apps setzen. Zudem überarbeitet man den Code von #WinUI3. Erste Tests liefern nun einige vielversprechende Ergebnisse. winfuture.de/news,158678.html?

  2. Notepad on Windows 11 clearly has a “status bar” of sorts. But the #WinUI3 Gallery seems to show no such control (nor does the community toolkit). Did the Notepad team do their own custom thing? Does it go by a different name?

  3. CW: Programming rant, strong language, AI

    Today, I looked into the nightmare hellscape that is #WinUI3/ #MAUI re: #a11y.

    Immediate problem: There's a toolbox to insert controls, but otherwise no design view to be able to TAB through the control hierarchy.

    Even with #IntelliSense, writing out ass loads of #XAML and #CSharp by hand is ridiculous!

    All that boilerplate code is exactly something that AI *should* be able to help with. Too bad there's so much capitalism.

    Tl;dr: Do you want a #WinUI3 app? Write 75% of the GUI code by hand.

  4. I don't get the complaints about using IValueConverters in XAML.
    If you don't like how they work, do or use something different.
    I thought this was so obvious that it didn't need saying, but if it does...

  5. Сравнение технологий для написания оконных приложений

    Как-то раз в одном чате прозвучала идея сравнить разные технологии для написания оконных приложений. В частности, под Windows. Используя средства языка C#. То есть, конечно, можно это сделать и с помощью C++, Python, Rust, JS и других языков, но мы же шарписты, нам интереснее именно то, что мы можем сами использовать, не меняя язык программирования. Итак, оконные приложения на C#.

  6. Ever wanted to use the shiny modern #WinRT Print Dialog from within your proven #Wpf Application?

    Well ... now you can!

    #dotnet #uwp #winui #winui3

  7. #WinUI3 #WinAppSDK 1.5 latest experimental release includes Map Control!!! Exciting to see new controls getting tested.

    Very excited to see InkCanvas hopefully soon!! 🤞

  8. Simple Icon File maker 1.7 is headed to the Microsoft Store! Now the major issue I had with rendering the small sizes has been fixed!

    Not sure if it was "sub-pixel rendering" or anti-aliasing, but either way now the pixels are rendered sharp and crisp!

    Get the app from the Microsoft Store here:
    apps.microsoft.com/store/detai

    All open source here:

  9. I'm trying to switch a WinUI3 app to be Partial Trust. But now the app crashes when I try to use CoreWebView2. Let me guess... the WebView doesn't play nicely with partial trust, does it? 🤔

    #dotnet #winui #winui3

  10. Today, I'm trying to upgrade a WPF app to WinUI3, and it is not going at all well... 😭

    #dotnet #wpf #winui #winui3

  11. #Microsoft wants to rewrite `explorer.exe` with the #Windows App #SDK and #WinUI3.

    The current #explorer is slow af, but somehow I feel like they will manage to make it even slower.

    I wanted to try #WinUI a few times now, but they made it impossible to use in a regular program. It has to be a packaged #App and it has to be distributed through the #WindowsStore. And all of a sudden, the #Win32 #GUI seems still fine to me.

    Or, actually, #WxWidgets! Did you know it had an update recently?

  12. 2 for and @unoplatform is coming along nicely🙂

    -🔥Windows C# updates UI on Ctrl+S
    - All 7 target platforms, 11
    - Nested view files in sln explorer
    - Fully + enabled dotnet new template

  13. @khalidabuhakmeh I am going to have to spend some time this weekend diving back into MAUI - check out the situation.

    I tried about six (6) months ago and it was pretty rough.

    Come to think of it, I wonder how #WinUI3 is doing these days…

    I am eager to get over to something better on Windows than my hacky WPF fork.
