Just as you design your own user interface (UI), or look and feel, for WPF applications, you can provide your own UI for data managed by <b>MediaPlayer for WPF and Silverlight</b>. Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML; pronounced "Zammel"), an XML-based declarative language, offers a simple approach to designing your UI without having to write code.</p> <p><strong>Accessing Templates</strong></p> <p>You can access templates in Microsoft Expression Blend by selecting the <a href="C1.WPF.MediaPlayer.4~C1.WPF.MediaPlayer.C1MediaPlayer.html">C1MediaPlayer</a> control and, in the menu, selecting <b>Edit Template</b>.
