Described are systems and methods for remoting applications, such as those based on Windows® Presentation Foundation (WPF). The systems and methods are based on remoting information associated with a structural representation. The structural representation corresponds to visual contents or elements of a desktop to be displayed at a remote end or client end, without rendering the contents at a client or remoted end. The information associated with the structural representation or structural information includes data that specifies the placement of the visual contents on the desktop when displayed. The information is used for recreating the structural representation at the client end and displaying the visual contents in conformance with the structural representation.
