I want to create a menu where there is a cube, and by pressing the arrow keys, you can rotate the cube to see the different faces of the cube. On each face, there will be text. If you press enter, it will go and do whatever option you selected on the cube. I have been working on this in C# in a combination of windows forms and WPF user controls and I need to know, is it a good idea to use the integrated 3D functionality in WPF for C#, or do I need to use something else (preferably not directx or any other derivatives of it (including wrapper classes)). Thanks in advance!
It is valid - you can easily do 3d stuff in WPF. The performance will be "not optimal" but basically you ask for something extremely simple - so it is definitely good enough (as in: you can not do a proper 3d game in WPF, with good quality, but a menuy is really trivial, graphically).

Which of these (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/492893/graph-drawing-c-library) libraries can be used to evaluate nodes coordinates? I mean I want to draw and manipulate graph by clicking on it to add some nodes or delete, and then evaluate coordinates using some lightweight library.
All I need is algorithm which could on dot file and speciefied layout (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DOT_language) give me conformity of graph nodes and 2D points.
Prefferable languages: C++, C#, Java
I made a complete WPF MVVM sample of a "Nodes Editor" supporting drag and drop, and many interesting visual features. It looks like this:

This is my first time using WPF, I find it extremely convenient, but I am not up to date on all that is (not) possible with it, such as the MVVM, and I'm having trouble finding the right parameters to call in the XAML files.
I am writing an IRC-based game. When someone writes a command, I want that person's avatar to be visible on my (local) application, and depending on what he wrote, I want the avatar to have a different animation. For example, "move a little bit forward, and slash with a sword". I figure I'd use a storyboard to translate the position, and switch to a different .gif sourcefile to slash the sword.
Right now, I am horribly stuck on trying to 'change' a storyboard, like change from 'move forward and backward' to 'jump up and down'. I found some related questions which answer pieces and parts, but I can't put 1 and 1 together. Most likely because I am missing basic WPF knowledge.
So my questions:
Could you give me some sources that help me become comfortable with WPF (coming from a C#/XNA/WinForms background)?
And, could you tell me how to tackle a problem where I want to have multiple images, use the same set of storyboards on all of them, and frequently switch both images and storyboards?
You can find a lot of basic information at this CodeProject article series. And this one talks about storyboard animation.
Documentation. BOoks. There ARE decent books about WPF.

Say I have an array of point coordinates in a 3d space, like
point1 x=5, y=10, z=15
point2 x=1, y=25, z=3
... and so on.
And I need to show them in a sort of a 3d environment, where the user would be able to zoom in, pan and rotate, in a winform.
I haven't done 3d in c# before, so I wanted to ask what's the method/library of choice for that?
Thanks
You can start here: Viewport3D Class http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.controls.viewport3d.aspx
You have to program the zoom/pan by your self, but there are probably many examples how to.

Is there a simple way, whether through a web service or just a library, to write/display music notation with C#? I have some data and am wondering if there is a way to show a staff with the given notes on it.
I've looked into MusicXML, but if I understand it correctly, it is purely a way to store the data - displaying it on a staff is a separate task. Short of manually using shapes (would be a lot of work) in HTML Canvas or WPF or what-have-you, is there some way to accomplish this?
Long list of background information and libraries for Java can be found here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5525959/are-there-any-music-notation-rendering-libraries-for-java.
A similar C# question can be found here: Draw a music staff in C#.
Here's an article describing how to show MusicXML notation with WPF: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/89582/PSAM-WPF-Control-Library.

I would like to achieve something very similar to Microsoft Access query designer - I am talking about a plane(canvas?)-like surface on which users can place and move controls. Is this even possible?
If it isn't possible with free .NET controls - then are there any paid ones, which offer similar functionality?
Anything is possible if you try hard enough.
I would explore WPF, it will provide capabilities to custom build your own controls and will get rid of that tedious work of keeping the UI updated.
Make sure to follow a good UI pattern if you do end up working with WPF, here is a good video that explains how to implement MVVM in WPF.
