I'm not sure how you expect the TextBox to know about any formatted text
you've rendered.
TextBox doesn't support formatted text - RichTextBox does.

You might want to buy a book or two. My good friend Laurent Bugnion has written a rather good one called Silverlight 2 Unleashed[^].

Try Jesse Liberty's Tutorials[^]
These are in both C# and VB. If you're a VB developer one of the problems is that the vast majority of snippets on the web are in C#.
Re: buying a book, one thing to be aware of is that Silverlight 3 books will be appearing in the late summer so I would avoid buying a book now unless you have to.
Again, if you're a VB developer then APress's "Pro Silverlight 2 in VB" (there's a C# version as well) looks good and it's also in colour. But the Silverlight 3 versions are already listed!
Some knowledge of ASP.NET helps but is not essential.

Hello,
I am embarking on my first WPF project and am looking for the best way to implement a flexible master-detail view.
The project will have several views, each bound to a different underlying data source via view models. I want to produce a 'detail' view which will display the details for the currently selected object in any one of the main views. Therefore, this detail view must be flexible enough to display properties for any one of a variety of differnt object types.
What is the best technique to perform this type of 'dynamic' data binding in WPF? Is it possible purely using data templates or would I need to use something like DataSourceProvider?
Thanks!
Dan

You may or may not need DataSourceProvider.
For the detail view, DataTemplates work nicely since you can specify a
template for each object type (using the DataType property) so the appropriate
template is chosen automagically for any given source object.

Thanks, thats good news..
I have had a go at implementing this using a ContentControl to display item details but have come across a further problem. I dont want to explicitly set the ContentTemplate of the content control. Instead I need this to be selected based on the type of content currently selected. I have created a set of data templates and associated each with a DataType but the content control does not pick these up. Should this work?
Thanks

Yes.
Make sure your master list has IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem set to true,
and your detail's Content is binded (bound? ) to the same collection used by the master.
Example: Different DataTemplates for different types[^]

Apologies, I had my DataType syntax incorrect - I now have it working perfectly. Thanks for the help!
I have a related follow up question regarding the architecture of my project. As I described before, I have several views each bound to a different viewmodel over differnt data. At the moment, each viewmodel will have a CurrentItem selected but ideally I want some kind of 'master' selection context so that only a single item is selected at any one time in the entire interface. i.e. this master viewmodel must be shared between the various views to maintain a single selected item. (I hope that makes sense!)
What is the best way to approach this?
Cheers

Hi,
I need to bind by data as UserControls inside a WrapPanel.
I have an ObservableCollection which is binded to the UserControl inside the WrapPanel.
If I am adding 100 data, it is working fine. But, if my data increases it is taking time to adding those usercontrols inside the panel (it becomes hanged). I need to show near about 10000 usercontrols inside the panel. OfCourse, there will be scroll to show these huge data. On every second, I am changing the collection data properties. Not adding or removing any data object but just changing the properties exposed for those data. At that time too, it becomes hanged. I need to show those data & need to change in every second.
Please help me in this matter. I am using WPF 3.5 with SP1. I checked different articles on the net & those didn't solve my problem.
Your early response regarding the same is highly appreciable.
Thanks & Regards,
- K

Try using a VirtualizingStackPanel, if you need the same behaviour as a WrapPanel there are some results that might help if you search for VirtualizingWrapPanel. Did you look at this article on WPF: Data Virtualization?

When a tab is selected, I get a line (the border of the tab control) under the tab. I want to get rid of the line between the tab content and the tabitem. This probably has something to do with the templates I'm using, but I'm not sure what I can do to address the issue. I looked around to see if you could set the color for a border on a side-by-side basis, but it doesn't look like you can. Can anyone help?

I've played with this problem in Blend, and I haven't been able to resolve the issue.

John - I'm a bit confused as to what line you get. By default, you shouldn't get a line at the bottom of the tab header - you should only get the left, top and right border lines. Are you talking about the focus rectangle? If so - all you need to do is add this style:
<Style TargetType="{x:Type TabItem}">
<Setter Property="FocusVisualStyle" Value="{x:Null}" />
</Style>

Yep - it's the line that separates the tabitem from the tab body. Normally, you're only supposed to see it if the tab isn't selected, but when the tab is selected, (for me) it's still there.
I was just playing with it some more and may have an observation to share in about 20 minutes. I just want to make sure of what I'm seeing.

Okay, after too much fiddling around, figured out part of the problem. The margin on the scrollviewer element of the tabcontrol was wrong (and is still kinda wrong I think), and the margin on the tab item needed to be set in the !IsSelected state. I now have the proper separator line under unselected tabs, and no line under the currently selected tab. Now all I have to finger out is the tot and left border of the tab (which also might be a margin problem.

I need to define a customized event which detects whether the border of one UI element crosses the border of the other UI element.
Make this assumption that both UI elements are on a Canvas, and they have the relative coordinates toward the boundary of the Canvas which are Canvas.Left and Canvas.Bottom.
My initial thought was to create a function which checks the relative coordinates of these two elements and raise the event whenever their coordinates are identical. Then, I realized it was rather awkward because each element has its area and it can not be considered as a pixel.
I have contemplated this puzzle for quite some time but still I can not come out with anything. Would anyone be kind enough to help me out on this I will be grateful.
Thanks in advance

I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for...
For rectangular elements, if you don't want to code it yourself, you
could probably use the Rect structure and its Intersect() method...if
the method returns Rect.Empty then the elements don't overlap.

Thanks Mark for your information.
I did a little bit of research on the method you provided me, and I found out this Intersect() method belongs to a GDI+ rectangle structure and it's not supported in WPF shapes. Are there any other methods which can substitute this one?
BTW, you are right about what I am looking for. In my program, I need to use an event to detect the intersection of different WPF UI elements in order to process some task once they cross over with each other.

Hi,
I have a requirement in which i need to show
1. a Plane of a Cube ( Plane will be selected by the users by setting the apporpriate x,y and Z values) and i need to plot the Tempreture data (i get an array of X y z and Tempreture values in an Array) on it .
Can anyone give me some idea ?
2. I will be given an Array of X,y,Z points and i need to plot them.
I am not sure how i can do this in WPF ?
Any help will be highly appreciated .

I think I am working on something somewhat similar and while I am probably ahead of you on this one, I am a long, long way from done. A screenshot of where I am now is shown below.
Basically, the way I am doing it, I have three planes, one for each axis. I also have a two dimensional user control that does two dimensional XY graphs. I am using three VisualBrushes, one for each plane and passing an instance of the two dimensional usercontrol into the constructor of those VisualBrushes. I am then using those VisualBrushes to texture the three axis planes. For the points, I am creating spherical meshes and positioning them inside of the XYZ chart area.
When I finally get done with this whole thing, which won’t happen anytime soon, I will do one or more posts on it on my blog with source code. However, I am so far from done that that may be a while. I won’t publish the code that I have at this point in time because it is so crude and filled with quick and dirty workarounds that I don’t want it on the web in its current form. I hope this helps at least with the getting started part though.
