Importing and Manipulating 3D Objects in Expression Blend

By: Todd Miranda

Expression Blend is not a 3D graphics application, but it is fully capable of basic manipulation of 3D objects. Furthermore, 3D objects can be built directly in Expression Blend using XAML. For anything other than just the most basic 3D objects, building the object in XAML is a tedious process. Often a third party tool like ZAM3d would be used to create the 3D objects and export them to XAML. In this video Todd Miranda demonstrates how to import a 3D object and manipulate it through the design interface.
