htpc - Learning WPF... Full screen launcher app -
I'm in the process of building a Home Theater PC (HTCP) and it felt that it could give me a small project Learn more about WPF.
I want to create a simple program launcher. This will be an application that will fill the screen with the background of my selection, and some big icons / buttons will be used to represent the applications. I have an IR remote that will be installed to emulate keystrokes, so I can use the "keyboard" to go in between the big buttons and launch a program and "click" them.
In order to define the information, images, and background of my buttons using any of the external config files and image files in the same folder as the Exchange.
I am playing VB 2008 in VB 2008 using VB with this idea, but already I was just trying to display an external image file on a button, with Stuck. The many samples I get are comparatively complex and written in C #, but I work in VB. If a person is getting suggestions about this barrier or ideas that I should go to other parts of my application, then your input is welcome.
Thank you!
