RE: Silverlight 3.0 Wishlists

A few days ago I blogged about how I'm seeing Silverlight 3.0 wishlist (s) popping up all over the interweb for the end of year celebrations.

At any point, I've been given the task of aggregating this data to hand off to folks within the Silverlight Team.

So..

That being said, now is your chance to add to this further. If you have any ideas on what you'd love to see inside Silverlight tomorrow please leave either a comment or email me direct via scbarnes /__/ microsoft.com

    Little hard to request features for 3.0 when the 2.0 feature list hasn't been fully released (other than a few hints) but here goes: 3D support A file save dialog for saving outside of protected storage Encryption namespace Permission from Microsoft to copy code from classes in the full .net 3.5 framework that are not included in the silverlight framework(for use within silverlight applications) Microphone and web cam support Flow Panels TFS support from Blend(not exactly silverlight) Better packaging of libraries. Right now it isn't very easy to embed Silverlight content in sites that do not support iframes or scripts(myspace for starters) Digital signing to verify authorship TONS of controls

    P2P streaming without any other client than the Silverlight plug in. If that would be possible it would lower the costs by large numbers for media companies

    Make Silverlight = WPF/E ! That is, make Silverlight code compatible with WPF, and make it a REAL subset of WPF. Please please don't make Silverlight 3 "something that is almost like WPF because it uses XAML too".

    Here are some features I would like see in future versions of Silverlight:

  • Filters : shadows, gaussian blur, motion blur
  • Imaging API : to change hue, saturation, colorize, etc.
  • Right-click support for context menus
  • Support for touch inputs and gestures
  • Some physics (to simplify animations)
  • Hardware acceleration (2D or 3D) ?
  • An IDE feature to finish: intellisense with bindings

    Ability to use local assemblies. May be you make some attribute, like [SilverlightSafety], and Silverlight may use assemblies or classes from GAC, alredy installed, that marked by this attribute. For example you make in Managed DirectX support of Silverlight, but DirectX downloaded not in silverlight package, he downloaded manually.

    Please include in Silverlight 3.0 an updated, higher efficiency audio codec.... I would be very VERY happy  if  it included Full-Spec Windows Media Audio 10 Professional codec support ... But if Microsoft has anything better (WIndows Media Audio 11 codec , anyone?) -especially at lower bitrates - lower than 64kbps- that would be superb! I would definetly - and, i bet,  alot of other people - would greatly welcome Higher quality audio at lower bitrates with silverlight 3.0.
