title: Embedding Silverlight control in WPF app - is it possible?
body: <p><strong>Background:</strong><br>
  One of the most attactive feature of Silverlight is <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.media.planeprojection%28v=vs.95%29.aspx" rel="nofollow">PlanProjection</a> because of its ease of use and the stunning effect. Unfortunatelly, it is not available in WPF. I know that similar effects can be achieved using Viewport3D but certainly not with that simplicity.</p>
  
  <p><strong>The App:</strong><br>
  I would like to build a Win app designed for dualscreen computer, a bit similar to PowerPoint: 1 fullscreen viewer window for the audience, and 1 regular window to control the app.</p>
  
  <p><strong>The problem</strong>:
  Building the app in SL is not very appealing: Going to fullscreen always requires user confirmation due to (understandable) security reasons. Detecting primary/secondary screens, their positions is only possible with <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.screen.aspx" rel="nofollow">System.Windows.Forms.Screen</a> class (pls, correct me if I am wrong), which is not available in SL.</p>
  
  <p><strong>The odd solution:</strong>
  Would it be possible to write my controls in SL utilizing the fancy and simple PlanProjection features and reuse them within a WPF application?
  If yes, what impact will I have on the installer? I assume that the installer would need to deploy both .NET framework and SL runtime.</p>
  
  <p>Do you have alternative ideas to facilitate cherry-picking features from the two different worlds?</p>
