EB (Elektrobit) has worked closely with Microsoft to develop a plug-in for EB GUIDE Studio that allows the connection between the state machine of EB GUIDE Studio and the XAML files. The view editor, which allows the creation and layout of graphical controls directly in EB GUIDE Studio, is replaced with Expression Blend. In addition to the plug-in on the EB GUIDE Studio side, extensions of Expression Blend ensure the smooth integration of the EB and Microsoft tools.
