Welcome to the MultiPoint Blog!

The Windows MultiPoint SDK is a project that started out in Microsoft Research India and has been transferred to the Microsoft Education Products Group in the India Development Center (IDC) late last year.

 

Today we are proud to announce our second Community Technology Preview (CTP). You can download the Microsoft Windows MultiPoint SDK CTP 2 release from the Microsoft Download Center. This release includes lots of new features including a new sample application (multiplayer Tic-Tac-Toe), updated control samples, better Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) integration and numerous other updates that allow you to create even better MultiPoint-enabled applications.

 

Let us know what you think about this latest release in the comments. Also let us know if you run into trouble or have questions. While we won’t be able to answer every question individually, we’ll do our best to respond to comments and answer the most popular questions in future postings.

 

The MultiPoint Team.

  1. How can I disable MultiPoint. For example, I have a modal dialog and I want MultiPoint cursors to be active only inside this window. When the user closes this window, only windows system cursor should appear
  2. In the previous SDK there were some examples how to extend existing controls to support MultiPoint. In the current version of the SDK the examples are missing. There are some WPF controls enabled to support MultiPoint, but the don't fit to my requirements. Keep on with the great work and good luck. Stephan Zahariev

    In the Channel 9 interview, they mention that MultiPoint can be used with C++.  When I attempt to follow the instructions that come with the SDK to add Multipoint to an application, I'm not able to add the references from the bin directory when I'm using C++.  What type of project is supported? Also, all the Multipoint site links point to the Imagine cup site which doesn't have any forums discussing the technology or giving support despite the claims when describing the link.  Is there any site that actually does this? Thanks!
