Seadragon Ajax Released
November 20, 2008We’ve just released Seadragon Ajax, a JavaScript-only Deep Zoom Image viewer. I’m excited to see what people come up with to do with it!

Thanks for the great work on this!
We’ve slapped up an example on our Library website, and while it’s not perfect (the full-screen view is funky; I’m sure it’s my fault in the dimensions I assigned it), it really has incredible potential in the way we’ll be displaying our online exhibits.
It’s also huge for us to have Photozoom to host the image/tile sets (our IT dept. is very conservative in regards to giving us server space).

A natural next step would be do have this running in WPF – I’d like to get the multiscale control working in WPF pulling tiles from SQL server. Is that coming one day?
Richard, this is a common request, and we believe there’s a lot of potential in the Seadragon technology, so I imagine we’ll see it in WPF, but I can’t comment on when it might be.
