Silverlight
Appealing due to its potential reach, but has been the most frustrating to use, probably due to bleeding edge, high expectations and the inevitable comparisons to WPF.
Pros:
- Mac OS X support.
- Linux support (Moonlight 3).
- Mobile support (Windows Phone 7).
- Dynamic sound buffer support.
Cons:
- Missing RenderOptions BitmapScalingMode (NearestNeighbor) for image scaling.
- Missing direct access to keyboard state.
- Missing caps lock key state from event handlers.
- Out of Browser mode cannot control the window and does not support caching framework extension assemblies.
I prefer running out of browser, but this mode has a few issues to work through. The key bindings are a little messy since the browser tends to hijack the keys I'd prefer to use and the lowest common denominator rules:
Apple or Setting Key | Keyboard Binding |
---|---|
OpenApple | Alt or NumPad0 |
CloseApple | Windows or [NumPad]Decimal |
Reset | Control+Back |
CpuThrottle | Control+[NumPad]Divide |
VideoMonochrome | Control+[NumPad]Multiply |
VideoFullscreen | Control+[NumPad]Subtract (OOB) |
The UI is rudimentary but supports selecting local disk images at runtime.
