Surface Toolkit for Windows Touch Beta! 12/4/10

 

Hey there!

Surface Toolkit for Windows Touch Beta

Today, together with the VS2010 launch, Microsoft has finally released the Surface Toolkit for Windows Touch for download!

But what is it, you might ask? This toolkit enables WPF developers with Windows 7 touch PCs with the Surface controls (such as ScatterView and Library) and touch visualizations to create really awesome multitouch apps.

Stop reading this and go download it now:

If you don’t have a touch device, you can use MultiTouchVista to simulate multiple touches using multiple mice. A step-by-step tutorial can be found in this link: http://wenjiun.blogspot.com/2009/11/testing-windows-7-multi-touch-with.html

Also take a look at this video from Channel 9 which shows the toolkit:
