I was thinking that it would be a cool idea to provide a simple control that could be embedded in PocketPC and TabletPC applications that would train a new user on how to use a pen.
For instance, TabletPC pens have a right-click button which can be a hassle, and PocketPCs have the press-and-hold for right click op's.
The control would be invoked by a single call (TrainingDialog.Show()), with potentially a way to list which training steps that would be available to the user (double-tap, pressure sensitivity for Tablets, right click etc).
Obviously once tablets and mobile devices become more ubiqutous the need for this will be less, but I know that if I handed my Mother a tablet PC she would love it, but would initially not have any idea how to use it. A drop-in training dialog would be a nice community service.
cheers,

I think CP needs a "Glossary of Technical Terms" because I just can't seem to keep up with all the jargon.

this is a rough draft
I was wondering what category to submit this under?
it really isn't specific code, just an article about new ideas like others have submitted. Any ideas?
should I submit it at all?
Thanks

I'd like to see some C++ articles on DirectX 9 particularly with Vertex Buffers, that would be nice. Its such an easy area to fall over on it would be nice to have various articles guide us down the right path.

I've been meaning to write a Direct3D 9 article based on some of my experiences writing my engine, but just haven't had any time (or specific ideas).
Are you looking for a basic intro to Direct3D or how to do something more specific?

Hi guys,
I am not quite sure if this is the right place to put this but forgive me if it is not.
I have recently being toying with the idea of developing what i can quite inadequately only describe as a remote desktop. This will bear similarities with a citrix system on a network, except it will not primarily be on a network.
Imagine if you would a platform with a reliable internet connection, it need not have any applications installed apart from a client side application. This application allows it to embed within it any application for which it is licensed(an authorised client/subscriber) to use from a server running those applications.
Essentially it will be like having your c:\Program Files drive on a remote server. One would not necesarily need to have an application to use it. It may be possible to work around licensing by charging on a per thread/per single use basis.
Initial responses are that this domain is too vast for single developer implementation. As such it would be worthwhile identifying potential problem areas and contributing to those.
A totally simplistic, if at all realistic approach will be to use a common interface/ medium across all platforms ie www. and embed applications in typical applet style.
If there is any interest, critisism, contributions or any help on this and relating issues I would be most grateful for some feedback. I am considering this as a potential degree project.
Direct contact will also be welcome.

Let me understand that: basically, what you want is a Terminal Services which allows you to map your local drives and printers? Well, Terminal Services does allow you this...

not really. I want to be able to run applications that are not installed on my pc...if only for a single use. Possibly done by embedding the requested application in a client side platform application.
essentially, i want to be able to view and edit a word document without having to install microsoft word on my PC.(hypothetically ofcourse)
