BabySmash! For Babies and Toddlers

Added CoolOval (as modified from CoolCircle). I couldn't get SVN to import the project. Got a couple other enhancements in mind that I may make, but testing out the response for integration here :) Add this to project and add a line to FigureGenerator to use it: new KeyValuePair<string, BrushControlFunc>("Oval", x => new CoolOval(x) ),

The FontChooser combo specifies a VirtualizingStackPanel as ItemsPanel. However the babySmashComboBox style hard codes a StackPanel as items host. This pack changes the style to use an ItemsPresenter instead. The result is that the FontChooser combo *is* virtualized and MUCH faster to bring up - especially if you have a lot of fonts installed.

This patch isn't meant to be applied because it breaks functionality (and it probably doesn't compile) but it's more of a feeler, to see if you agree with the changes I am about to make (before I make them) and to collect comments on my approach/style before I go too far. The changes are based on a comment I posted on Scott's blog earlier today: http://www.hanselman.com/blog/LearningWPFWithBabySmashManuallyManagingClickOnceAndSomeMoreDesignerGoodness.aspx

It would be nice if you had a way of posting your comments publicly (I'm new to CodePlex - should this discussion take place in an issue or *gasp* the Discussions thingy?), but if you don't, send me an e-mail. :)

Zipped sound resource file to accompany patch. All sound files are royalty free and available for use.

This supercedes the previously uploaded patch, as I discovered that at least one thing I did sucked. Also, I'd like to thank the project for allowing me to write the method I have been dreaming of:

public void PlayFart()

These are the sound files that should accompany the uploaded patch.

This patch adds several sounds effects and an option on the main screen to select "Farts, Bubbles, and Bangs", something my son is particularly interested in.

Sample of using an ImageBrush as the "Fill" for non-letter figures. This was against changeset 9762. This approach probably doesn't work with the more specialized gradientbrushes used for fills in the current release.

Refactored sound playing stuff. Pushed it into Figure class, then deferred it to an ISound interface.

Also fixed bug where the speech synthesizer would butcher "BabySmashStyle" instead of say the right letter.

One step closer to extensibility...

Hopefully cpc made a good patch

Updated my previous ImageBackgrounds code to work with updated source. I've got a very simple cache set up to avoid reloading the list of images every time. It's a little wonky because the utils class is all statics, so storing state there is odd. I didn't see a better place to store state, though.
