    Hi CyanBlue,

    I haven't found any EID specific tutorials that are better than the standard ones mentioned above. However, I benefited a great deal from just studying simple XAML examples. I recommend checking out Charles Petzold's blog.

    Additionally, if you post some specific question about what was confusing you with EID, perhaps we could address those.

    Thanks for the link, lester... :)

    I've visited the page some time ago, but that page is somewhat confusing to me... :(

    Maybe it's one of those Hello World tutorial that I need... Once I know how to add some assets on the page and add an event handler, I should be good to go, hopefully...

    Thanks..

    Also, just an FYI - 99+% of Expression Interactive Designer's user interface definitions are in XAML.

    It is a code design decision as to how you write the code. But the guideline is that XAML is for the UI and the CS code is the logic.
