Cool.
Well, XAML is just another method of creating objects.
So just create the objects in code and nest them just like the XAML is.
RichTextBox and FlowDocument creation in code is an advanced WPF topic. But I'm the same way, if its hard, just go for it.
There is a SUPER book on writing WPF code: http://www.charlespetzold.com/wpf/index.html[^]
I strongly suggest you have a look at this. You can probably get a used one on www.Amazon.com.

Hey guys...
ive got a WPF control(calender), im using a grid to split it up into cells. Each cell contains a Border, Canvas, WrapPanel, and two textBlocks.
The 1st Textblock will be used for the number that represents the day of the month and the 2nd will have a string value. I cant seem to get the 2nd textBlock to behave like i need it to.
I need its text to wrap around if the sting is vertically too long for the grid cell to show it all, and i need to "Dock" the stack panel to the canvas so that its the same size(and ontop of) as the canvas.
Heres my XAML for a single cell
<Border Name="Border00" Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="2">
<Canvas Name="Canvas00" Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="2" >
<StackPanel>
<TextBlock Name="dayTxt00" Text="1" />
<TextBlock Text="WPF Shift Harvey Blah" HorizontalAlignment="Center" FontSize="8" Foreground="#AAFF0000"/>
</StackPanel>
</Canvas>
</Border>
any ideas?
Thanx

To solve your second question, you can bind the width and height of the StackPanel to it's parent.
<Canvas>
<StackPanel Height="{Binding ActualHeight,
RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType=Canvas}}"
Width="{Binding ActualWidth,
RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType=Canvas}}">
</StackPanel>
</Canvas>
After that, just make sure to set the text wrapping property on the TextBlock and you should be all set

Hey guys,
For some strange reason i cant seem to get events working in on of my WPF controles, its basically a calender(in progress so there isnt much happening yet) and each cell that represents a day in the month must be able to handle left and right click events.
The control uses a Grid, there are also border objects so that the grid lines are visible, and the cells representing the days have canvas objects in them.
Im sure that im overlooking something stupid, but i cant seem to figure out why the events arent firing. the control is being used in a winForms solution if thats of any help.
<Edit>
After i nested the controls properly, and then registered the event on the lowest control(in my case the border) the events worked

If you want to deliver a Silverlight application, then you may want to consider using Visual Studio 2008 and Blend.

You can get use the DataGrid.SelectedItem property in a way like:
(dataGrid.SelectedItem as YourObject).AnyProperty
I hope this[^] article that I posted today may help you as it presents a master-detail UI using DataGrids and ListBox.

Am working on a WPF application having a combobox. I have set the background of combobox to dimgray color.Currently i am using Windows Classic Theme.While working in this theme, if i disable combobox , the background will be dimgrey itself. However, if i change to Windows XP style and disable combobx, the disabled combobox is having a white background. Can we set the backcolor or the style of combobox independent of the themes. If we use Vista operating system, the same scenario can be noted.

OK, I cannot find any VB samples, (different issue if I was doing things in C#). Any way, I am using WebClient class and am successfully reading the XML file of business videos in my xaml.vb file asynchronously. But I am having a problem populating the datagrid properly:
My XML has these nodes:
<videos>
<profession name="lawyer">
<video id="1" title="Lawyer Title 1" />
<video id="2" title="Lawyer Title 2" />
</profession>
<profession name="doctor">
<video id="1" title="Doctor Title 1" />
<video id="2" title="Doctor Title 2" />
</profession>
</videos>
Here's my query
Dim BizVideos = _
From videos In xmlVideos.DescendantsAndSelf("profession") _
Where videos.Attribute("name") = "doctor" _
Select videos
dgridVideoList.ItemsSource = BizVideos
Here's the problem I am experiencing:
1. I am only getting one row in the datadrid with everything included in that one row, as opposed to what I want, i.e. one row for Video ID 1, and one for Video ID 2.
2. I am getting more fields in the datagrid than I want, i.e. "Has Elements", "Has Attributes", "Parent Node", etc.
Can anyone offer me (a.) the correct syntax for the query where I can break out the video child nodes under profession doctor and diplay them one video per row (b.) avoid showing superflulous fields like "Has Attributes", "Parent Node", etc., as well as (c.) what I am doing wrong in the binding of my datagrid?
Thank you all for your help.

I've been evaluating around 5 third-party WPF datagrids for my project.. Each Datagrid has some issues.. (Ref[^])
The following are my requirement for buying WPF datagrid..
* Controls inside the Datagrid Column: I wanna display one or more WPF controls (e.g. Checkedbox or Combobox, Textbox or etc) inside the column of Datagrid. Plus, I should be able to set/get the value to/from those controls at runtime.
* Excel-Like Filtering: Should we call it as the row filtering? In Microsoft Excel, we are able to filter by the rows.For example: There are ten student records showing in Datagrid and those students are from Math Major and Physic Major. So, I should be able to filter those students by Major. Yes. it’s like grouping but if I say “grouping”, you might get confused with grouping features of Datagrid.
* Sorting, Grouping: Of course!
* Hierarchical display: Same as Grouping featuer? (Importantly, It would be better if we can specify the appearance of hierarchical in XAML)
* SelectedItem Binding (two ways): I believe that this feature should be included in every datagrid but surprisely, I found a few datagrids that don’t provide this feature. Weird.
* Less work from Code-behind file: What does it mean? It means, I should be able to do the most of works in XAML. In my current project, we are using MVVM (Model-View-ViewModel) pattern with CompositeWPF (Codename: Prism) framework so we do the most of jobs in either XAML or ViewModel (which is not a code-behind file) and we try not to write as much as possible in code-behind file.
It would be great if anyone can recommend some cool WPF datagrid control.. Thanks in advance...

I've only used two of note, both of which I'm sure you'll have already tested.
Xceed WPF Grid & Infragistics XamDataGrid.
I'm working on a project for my own company and I'm also working on a large LOB WPF app for my employer, both are using the XamDataGrid. We too are using MVVM (Dan's flavour) in the LOB app. So far we are really pleased with the XamDataGrid. Before opting for the XamDataGrid I test run a few myself and wasn't overly impressed. The Component One stuff just looks terrible in my opinion. The Xceed looks good but due to us wanting to buy a complete suite we ended up opting for the Infragistics stuff (we wanted a good chart as well). In my opinion the Infragistics stuff is still the WPF suite of controls to measure things by.
That said I had an interested reply from one of the sales guys as Nevron. He basically said that for their WPF offering (not available yet) they were going to be implementing their own framework which will be merely hosted by WPF citing performance as their reasoning. I'll be looking out for that as I'm intrigued to find out exactly what he was on about. I've been using the XamDataGrid with datasets of 100,000+ records and i've not had any problems ...
There are a few other small component houses that are making things but they really don't compare to Infragistics yet. Not to mention that the support and developer interaction that I've had with the Infragistics folks has been exemplary. That's worth the price of admission. Don't forget that you can get a full blown copy of the XamDataGrid for FREE!!!! Look for their Express suite ... you get the grid, checkbox and an editor for zilcho ... nada ... nothing ... wooo!
Just out of interest, what have you found that you have liked??

I have tested 5 third-party controls and updated my post yesterday..
Based on my experience, Infragistics/C1 are so unstable for now even though they are big companies.
I like Xceed Datagrid and I think their doc and samples are really great.... I got one reply from Xceed in their forum.. http://xceed.com/CS/forums/thread/13984.aspx[^]
Hopefully, they can solve the problem that Im having now.

Infragistics?? Unstable???
Are you sure we're talking about the same things??? I have an app out at Beta testing stage using that grid and no-one is reporting problems with the grid ...
What exactly do you mean by unstable?
