With the substantial number of new features and API added to the Silverlight 1.0 Beta release since the February CTP release, I decided to compile a list of the new API. I've grouped them into feature areas.
- New Inking Support
- Enhanced Error Handling Support
- New Animation, Graphics, and Media Features
- Redesigned Silverlight Control Model
- New Text and Font Support
- Other New Support
See Silverlight 1.0 Beta Enhancements and Converting a WPF/E Application to a Silverlight Scripting Application for other info on changes to the Silverlight programming model.
