Quark Promote Lights Up Windows 7 on RIA Web Application

QuarkPromote incorporates Windows 7 light up features for its Rich Internet Web application (RIA). Users customize promotional material, business cards, and fliers using the QuarkPromote Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) client that you can get from their website.

John Heal, Sr. Software Developer at Quark, talks with Bruce Kyle, ISV Architect Evangelist, about how he and his team added jump lists, task bar, and progress bar to the application. He explains that it took a half day effort for his team. One member on his team told me it was literally five lines of code to add support for the progress bar. The jump list items that John shows directs the user to various features on the website. Thumbnails show the content user is editing rather than the entire screen, which is the default thumbnail in Windows 7.
