Software should: adapt to users desired size/aspect ratio; crash less; remember user settings

Went back to my last blog (on http://rrelyea.spaces.live.com/blog) to look at other entries in my Software Should series.

Was interested to recently see Soluto’s approach to keeping its aspect ratio fixed, but scaling to any size requested to the user.

WPF team is busy working on digging into our most frequent 4.0 crashes right now…

I’ve recently explored using XAML to write down UserSettings recently in “Persistable View Models & XAML for Config

Your point about resizable dialogs has been my pet pieve about MS for the last 10 years.  MS has more stupid fixed dialogs where the number of items shown in lists execeeds the size and we are supposed to get by with the scrollbars.  HEY MS we have big monitors now!!!
