Renowned author Matthew Mac Donald combines careful treatment of the API with detailed user-interface design principles. Further, this book incorporates C# and the final beta of .NET 2.0. The result: thorough coverage of Windows Forms and GDI+ namespaces for .NET programmers! You will become equipped to design state-of-the-art Windows interfaces and program graphics, and learn how to create your own controls.
As a developer, you must know more than just how to add a control to a window. You must be able to create an entire user interface framework that’s scalable, flexible, and reusable. This book is not a reference manual. Instead, it contains detailed discussions about user interface elements that you’ll use on a regular basis.
