Multi-Touch SharePoint Document Management System

Hi Guys,

Apologies, I've got a few updates to do... Ive been busy with some projects recently. Of which one of them I am extremely proud to unveil. I have been working on a multi-touch sufrace similar to that of Microsofts but at much reduced price.

For example check out this youtube video (I will be posting all the screencasts and pics up later next month), but this will give you the idea.

Maximum PC's Multitouch Surface Computer from Maximum PC on Vimeo.

So I set forth and build one of these multi-touch PC's as the Maximum guys above have shown. However I didnt want to build new applications in Action Script and Flash, although it was cool just to play around with the samples that can be found open source in flash.

So I downloaded WPF 4.0 CTP and Visual Studio 2010 with Windows 7 also. Becuase Windows 7 has an API for 2 finger touch (I will explain what that means in a minute) and WPF 4.0 natively also it meant that I could start building my application very quickly.

For example and this is the really cool part... In WPF 4.0 we have methods dedicated to Touch. For example, the onfingerdown method...

On hold, sorry guys, but a client has asked that I keep this back for a while before release all the screen shots etc... Will be here soon as possible, if you want any guidence please just ask.

Calendar List - editing the display headings.

Calendar List - editing the display headings.

Problem:

When creating a Calendar list in SharePoint you cannot edit the displayed columns. For example if I want to display the "created by" in the title along with the Description it isn’t possible with the base definition out-of-box from this list view.

Solution:

Ok, this part isn’t one of my more glorious moments but here you go. To add this functionality simply add another Calendar view to your Calendar???? - Yes this really works, to be able to edit the display data on the Calendar view you have to add another Calendar view then modify its properties. Simply click

1. In this Calendar list click Views, create view give it some details. Set this to your default if you wish.
2. Then click views modify this view then you can add additional information to the title etc...

Thanks

James
