Mobiform Aurora XAML Designer is a customizable authoring and design toolkit for embedding into .NET applications as a WPF control for developing user interfaces and graphics for Windows desktop and web applications.

Aurora has a full object model allowing for programmatically generating graphics on the design surface. Developers can access the XAML document tree, toolbars, menu, property panel items and even embed their own WPF components.

Aurora generates the XAML markup required by Visual Studio® for developing .NET 3.5 applications. Aurora authors traditional style dialog boxes and windows using common controls and works in multiple layers like many graphics design products.

Aurora has a gallery of royalty-free clip art, supports 2D vector graphics and has powerful brush options for specifying linear, radial, visual, image and video brushes. Unlike some design products and export plug-ins that produce markup completely as paths, the output from Aurora XAML Designer is optimized so that the individual graphics can be easily integrated with .NET code-behind.

Features:

• Embed the entire XAML designer into your own .NET WPF or WinForms application
