P 50 will be charged for withdrawal of P 6,999.99 or less. As you can see, choosing "Withdraw Funds to your bank account" is more convenient.

Our primary focus will be on applying these web technologies within the Windows 8 platform, where there are unique considerations, and not on exploring the details of those web technologies themselves. For the most part, then, I'm assuming that you're already at least somewhat conversant with these standards. We will cover some of the more salient areas like the CSS grid, which is central to app layout, but otherwise I trust that you're capable of finding appropriate references for everything else.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-top: 12px;">I'm also assuming that your interest in Windows 8 has at least two basic motivations. One, you probably want to come up to speed as quickly as you can, perhaps to carve out a foothold in the Windows Store sooner rather than later. Toward that end, I've front-loaded the early chapters with the most important aspects of app development along with "Quickstart" sections to give you immediate experience with the tools, the API, and core platform features. On the other hand, you probably also want to make the best app you can, one that performs really well and that takes advantage of the full extent of the platform. Toward this end, I've also endeavored to make this book comprehensive, helping you at least be aware of what's possible and where optimizations can be made.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-top: 12px;">Many insights have come from working directly with real-world developers on their real-world apps. As part of the Windows Ecosystem team, myself and my teammates have been on the front lines bringing those first apps to the Windows Store. This has involved writing bits of code for those apps and investigating bugs, along with conducting design, code, and performance reviews with members of the core Windows engineering teams. As such, one of my goals with this book is to make that deep understanding available to many more developers, including you!</div><h3 style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 1.15em; line-height: 18px;"> What You'll Need</h3><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-top: 12px;">To work through this book, you should download and install the Windows 8 Release Preview along with the Windows SDK and tools.

I want to pass along that we are still internalizing your feedback and actively working on the next Visual Studio 11 milestones.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">The purpose of this post is to follow up on a common request relating to the earlier RC preview post. The request was for more information on the Visual Studio 11 dark theme.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">Leading up to our being engineering complete for RC we focused most of our design attention on optimizing the light theme experience, because that’s what our telemetry indicates the majority of you are currently using. Once that was complete, we turned our attention to the dark theme, focusing on the top dark theme feedback we heard from Visual Studio 11 beta. Many of you will see significant improvements to the dark theme in the RC release, but several of the key changes I’m sharing with you now didn’t make the timeline for RC. In this post, I’d like to share what you will see in RTM and call out some of the dark theme improvements we’ve made from beta to RC and subsequently to RTM.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;"><a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92/3034.01_5F00_BETA.png" style="color: #00749e; outline: none; text-decoration: none;"><img alt="Beta Dark Theme" border="0" height="353" src="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92-metablogapi/8867.01_5F00_BETA_5F00_thumb_5F00_3B7E17E0.png" style="background-image: none; border: 0px; display: inline; max-width: 100%; overflow: hidden; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="Beta Dark Theme" width="640" /></a></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;"><a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92/4527.01_5F00_RC.png" style="color: #00749e; outline: none; text-decoration: none;"><img alt="RC Dark Theme" border="0" height="353" src="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92-metablogapi/7510.01_5F00_RC_5F00_thumb_5F00_15ABDB4D.png" style="background-image: none; border: 0px; display: inline; max-width: 100%; overflow: hidden; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="RC Dark Theme" width="640" /></a></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;"><a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92/3716.01_5F00_RTM.png" style="color: #00749e; outline: none; text-decoration: none;"><img alt="RTM Dark Theme" border="0" height="353" src="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92-metablogapi/8686.01_5F00_RTM_5F00_thumb_5F00_2311EE53.png" style="background-image: none; border: 0px; display: inline; max-width: 100%; overflow: hidden; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="RTM Dark Theme" width="640" /></a></div><h1 style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 22px;">Themed Icons</h1><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">As a part of giving you a preview of the dark theme I want to call your attention to several important characteristics of the Visual Studio 11 iconography. The first is that the icons are generally much simpler or more symbolic in their form. Secondly the color palette we employ within the icons has been simplified and made much more consistent.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">In Visual Studio 11, we generate our icons from a common library of glyphs. This approach improves consistency as we produce the approximately 6000 icons of various sizes and formats that are used in approximately 28,000 different locations throughout the product. This presents an interesting challenge in terms of how to most effectively host these icons in different themes, and on different shaded backgrounds (tool windows, editors, drop-downs).</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">We considered the pros and cons of outputting separate complete sets of swappable icons for each theme. As we looked into this approach we found it still didn’t allow us to optimize across the various backgrounds on which the icons would be hosted in each theme.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">In Beta and RC we used a ghost outline around the icons to make them visible on both lighter and darker backgrounds. The disadvantage of this approach is that it makes the icons appear fuzzy on both themes and too bright in the dark theme.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">In the RTM version, we dynamically adjust the icons according to the theme, resulting in icons that are cleaner and better matched to the theme and background color. At runtime, we modify the luminosity of the raster images to match the outline of the icon with the background on which it is drawn and to make the fill and accent colors stand out effectively. For the dark theme, this essentially inverts the brightness of the icon, making dark areas of the original icon light and light areas of the original icon dark. The same happens on the light theme, as icons are displayed on differently shaded backgrounds. The luminosity match makes the background and outline of icons disappear as it matches the surface color they are displayed on.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">The difference between the traditional outline based approach we used for beta and RC, and the approach we employee for RTM, is readily apparent in the following screenshots.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;"><a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92/7823.02DarkTheme.png" style="color: #00749e; outline: none; text-decoration: none;"><img alt="Dark Theme" border="0" height="384" src="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92-metablogapi/7607.02_5F00_thumb_5F00_549D5BE8.png" style="background-image: none; border: 0px; display: inline; max-width: 100%; overflow: hidden; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="Dark Theme" width="640" /></a></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">In addition to being simpler in form, and being better suited to dynamic theming, glyph style icons also lend themselves to much cleaner resizing or scaling. All of our Visual Studio 11 icons are maintained in an icon repository as vector graphic files which we output in various file formats and sizes as needed within our products. For example the same glyph can easily be rendered in a size and format appropriate for use in different Visual Studio 11 contexts such as the Solution Explorer or the New Project Dialog.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;"><a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92/3603.03DarkTheme.png" style="color: #00749e; outline: none; text-decoration: none;"><img alt="Dark Theme" border="0" height="356" src="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92-metablogapi/0247.03_5F00_thumb_5F00_021E7BAC.png" style="background-image: none; border: 0px; display: inline; max-width: 100%; overflow: hidden; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="Dark Theme" width="640" /></a></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">As a part of the Visual Studio 11 overall release plan we will be making all of the icons for this release available to you in multiple file formats including vector. You are free to take full advantage of the easy theme-ability and resize-ability of these assets within your own applications.</div><h1 style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 22px;">Themed Scrollbars</h1><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">One of the most common requests for dark theme enhancements has been for us to theme scrollbars. As I hinted at previously we were close to sharing with you in our last post that scrollbars will be custom themed within both the light and dark themes. We’ve since completed sufficient testing to feel confident in sharing our RTM designs with you.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;"><a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92/0844.04DarkTheme.png" style="color: #00749e; outline: none; text-decoration: none;"><img alt="Dark Theme" border="0" height="384" src="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92-metablogapi/0257.04_5F00_thumb_5F00_61973BF9.png" style="background-image: none; border: 0px; display: inline; max-width: 100%; overflow: hidden; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="Dark Theme" width="640" /></a></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">Visual Studio's UI is a mix of WPF, Windows Forms, Win32, HTML, and other UI technologies which made scrollbar theming a challenging project. Because there is no single technology solution to theming all scrollbars in VS, we applied scrollbar theming on a technology-by-technology basis. We created a style targeting ScrollBar and ScrollViewer in the root of VS document and tool windows. In some cases, where it’s not appropriate to show a themed scroll bar, the UI can opt-out. An example is a pop-up dialog that will continue to show light even in the dark theme should not show dark scroll bars.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">Individual pieces of UI can opt-out of themed scrollbars by setting a special property on the HWND. UI may decide to opt-out if it is not optimized for the dark theme or if it presents a very specific user content.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">The themed scrollbars are designed to work together with the RC changes we shared with you previously, such as drawing our own custom window chrome, to improve the overall sense of coherent styling within Visual Studio 11. As I mentioned above we would like to hear more regarding your impressions of the cumulative updates we’ve shared with you.</div><h1 style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 22px;">Dark Editor Theme</h1><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">Many of you have expressed a preference for coding within a dark editor. For example, dark editor themes dominate the list of all-time favorites at web sites such as <a href="http://studiostyl.es/" style="color: #00749e; outline: none; text-decoration: none;">http://studiostyl.es/</a> which serve as a repository for different Visual Studio styles.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">Chief among the reasons many of you have expressed for preferring dark backgrounds is the reduced strain placed on the eyes when staring at the screen for many hours. Many developers state that light text on a dark background is easier to read over longer periods of time than dark text on a light background.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">Downloading styles from web sites such as Studio Styles provides a great starting point to begin customizations. With that in mind, we themed every single customizable item and category in the Fonts and Colors list to be consistent with the overall dark theme design. This way, further customizations can be made and new features introduced in Visual Studio 11 will benefit from the defined default dark fonts and colors. We made several dark editor theme updates in RC in keeping with beta and early RC user feedback, including:</div><ul style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;"><li>Improving the contrast of the whites and grays in the editor fonts and colors to “pop” over the similar text colors used in the IDE/Shell</li><li>Increasing saturation for several default dark colors to improve their visibility</li><li>Enhancing “Use Defaults” to work as expected for all categories in the Fonts and Colors dialog when in the dark theme</li></ul><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;"><a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92/6327.06DarkTheme.png" style="color: #00749e; outline: none; text-decoration: none;"><img alt="Dark Theme" border="0" height="304" src="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92-metablogapi/3487.06_5F00_thumb_5F00_4C398691.png" style="background-image: none; border: 0px; display: inline; max-width: 100%; overflow: hidden; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="Dark Theme" width="640" /></a></div><h1 style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 22px;">Common Dialogs</h1><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">In RTM you’ll also find that we have themed a core set of the commonly used dialogs. The New Project, New Web Site, Add New Item, Extension Manager, and Reference Manager dialogs now have dark theme versions of their UI.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">For those of you who choose to work within the dark theme you will undoubtedly want us to continue to push our theming efforts deeper and more broadly across Visual Studio. We too are eager to continue our work in this area through the remainder of this release cycle and beyond.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;"><a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92/0005.07DarkTheme.png" style="color: #00749e; outline: none; text-decoration: none;"><img alt="Dark Theme" border="0" height="469" src="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92-metablogapi/4861.07_5F00_thumb_5F00_4BCD539C.png" style="background-image: none; border: 0px; display: inline; max-width: 100%; overflow: hidden; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="Dark Theme" width="640" /></a></div><h1 style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.5em; line-height: 22px;">Bringing it All Together</h1><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">I’ve included a screenshot that helps bring into focus how the various dark theme updates such as the shell, editor, design surfaces, etc. all fit together. The screenshot below shows a dark themed Visual Studio 11 with the Windows 8 simulator running in the foreground.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;"><a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92/2158.08DarkTheme.png" style="color: #00749e; outline: none; text-decoration: none;"><img alt="Dark Theme" border="0" height="360" src="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-92-metablogapi/3872.08_5F00_thumb_5F00_2B4613EA.png" style="background-image: none; border: 0px; display: inline; max-width: 100%; overflow: hidden; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="Dark Theme" width="640" /></a></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">As was the case with the changes we announced as part of the previous RC preview post the RTM changes reflected in this post are designed to both address core feedback areas and to maintain alignment with our primary design objectives for the release. I’m hoping you will take the time to share your feedback on these newly announced RTM changes.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;"><br /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">Source: MSDN</div></div>emondhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09380749832900807070noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-125126952257562002.post-76880271875020920722012-06-09T10:52:00.002+08:002012-06-09T10:52:33.539+08:00Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Desktop<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kKHF3G71JTU/T9K6YChm5HI/AAAAAAAAALU/oHw0rwrMYXI/s1600/vs2012.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="246" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kKHF3G71JTU/T9K6YChm5HI/AAAAAAAAALU/oHw0rwrMYXI/s400/vs2012.png" width="400" /></a></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;"><br /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">With Visual Studio 2012, we strive to provide the best development experience across all Microsoft platforms. This includes enabling developers to bring to life the richness of Windows desktop applications - whether you are learning to build your first app or whether you’ve been developing on Microsoft platforms for many years.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">A few weeks ago, we shared our plans for the Express editions of Visual Studio 2012. As we've worked to deliver the best experience with Visual Studio for our platforms with Windows 8, Windows Phone, and for Web and Windows Azure, we heard from our community that developers want to have for Windows desktop development the same great experience and access to the latest Visual Studio 2012 features at the Express level.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">Today, I’m happy to announce that we will add Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Desktop to the Visual Studio 2012 family. This will bring to the Visual Studio Express family significant new capabilities that we’ve made available in Visual Studio 2012 for building great desktop applications.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">Adhering to the core principles we’ve set for our Express products, Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Desktop will provide a simple, end-to-end development experience for developing Windows desktop applications targeted to run on all versions of Windows supported by Visual Studio 2012. With this new Express edition, developers will be able to use C++, C#, or Visual Basic to create Windows desktop and console applications. Developers will also get access to new advances available across the Express family in Visual Studio 2012, such as the latest compilers and programming language tools, integrated unit testing, and the ability for small development teams to collaborate via Team Explorer and TFS Express.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-top: 12px;">Planned for release in the fall, Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Desktop will provide a great learning environment for students and other new developers getting started.

SFD is a yearly celebration of software freedom that aims to educate the public about the value and importance of software<br />freedom.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;">Free and open source software (FOSS) are free, high-quality alternatives to proprietary software ranging from your operating system to applications you would use at home, in business, education and other social purposes. The affordability and viablity of FOSS tools have important economic and social impacts especially in third world countries like the Philippines.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;">The FOSS community intends to share its role in advancing the Filipino people's right to freedom of information in this year's SFD celebration, with the theme "FOSS: Enabling Freedom of Information". The event will have parallel plenary sessions on topics and issues regarding FOSS in the morning, followed by<br />breakout sessions in the afternoon featuring introductory trainings on FOSS applications and concepts. Hundreds of teams worldwide celebrated SFD in 2010. Over 700 celebrants trooping to the University of the Phililppines Diliman Campus and around 1,500 pre-event celebrants in Lipa City College.
