Events and commands form the basis of the architecture for intra-application communication in Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) applications. Routed events can be raised by multiple controls and enable a fine level of control over user input. Commands are a welcome addition to the Microsoft .NET Framework and provide a central architecture for enabling and disabling high-level tasks. Animation takes the concept of events a step further and enables you to design interactivity into your application by taking advantage of the WPF event infrastructure.
