• Visual Studio Team System Visual Studio 2005 Team Suite Release on MSDN Subscriber Downloads (Universal)

  Hello everybody, Today Visual Studio 2005 Professional was released on MSDN Subscriber Downloads. We were unable to find the Team Suite Release. Any help Best regards Ralf Rottmann If you are an MSDN Universal subscriber, you should see a Visual Studio Team Edition download. That's the one you need. You also need to install the Team Foundation Client Beta 3 that has been out for a while. However, I would lay off doing that for a while until we know the status of the "Team Foundation Beta 3 Refresh" that was supposed to be coming out at the same time as VS2005 RTM.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Dialog pops up again after closing it

  Hello, I have a commandbutton which when pressed opens a dialog. Sometimes, when pressing ok or cancel, the dialog pops up again. Using the debugger, I see that the method handling the commandbutton event in these cases, first is called and upon exit it is called again. The dialog pops up sometimes 1, sometimes 2, and sometimes 3 or more times (less likely). Any ideas This is the commandbutton: editEntity = CreateNewButton(entityContextBar, 6, editEntityCaption, 6754, new Microsoft.Office.Core._CommandBarButtonEvents_ClickEventHandler (this.EditEntity_Click)); CreateNewButton method: private Core.CommandBarButton Cre ...Show All

In this phase, the 2 TransformedTextured buffers are ignored (not rendered) 2) Render TransformedTextured buffers from back to front using alpha blending 3) Render shadow map last, blending it over the TransformedTextured buffers Are there any other (better) methods of rendering shadows onto Tran ...Show All
