Find the Domain-Specific Language Designer (under Other Project Type->Extensibility...
As of yesterday, you can download the new version of the DSL SDK . We fixed some bugs and we added some really cool features such as better templates for WPF and Winforms based designers, T4 code generation at build time, domain model extensibility (you can even extend the Dsl designer itself), and DslLibraries and much more. For the full list see Jean-Marc's post . There's a known issue with debugging Dsl designers using F5 - the toolbox items won't appear in the exp hive. In order to...
Jean-Marc has released another sample over the weekend: Domain Model Extensibility, here is a quote from his post : "The sample presents a DSL to explain the architecture of a multi-Tiered application. Each tier is made of components, which have ports. Connections are made between output ports and input ports. What is new is that a Domain Model Extension will add a “Security Extension” thus providing to the toolbox new items (an Audit Log), to a Tier new decorators, to Ports three new Domain...

I was investigate a GDI/GDI+ related bug the other day and I found out that GDI+ doesn’t render RTL text very well. In order to render it correctly you need to render it using GDI. GDI+ Text rendering This is done by Graphics.DrawString(…) / Graphics.MeasureString(..) GDI Text rendering This is done by TextRenderer.DrawText(..) / TextRenderer.MeasureText(…) The interesting thing about GDI text measuring is that it sometimes the measured size might be larger than the maximum size so be aware of that...
