No problems with echos either in window or full screen mode on channel 9 videos...have you tried checking your sound card control panel for weirdness?...I know soundblaster has this 'what U hear' thing that uses the speaker out as a recording input.

I only get this with Silverlight, not with other video types. I haven't checked out Silverlight videos outside Channel9 recently to see whether it's a general problem.

I do encounter it but only when I am on RDP. If I run the video on my host machine, it runs perfectly.

UserControl Error !

Hi .
I've created an UserControl, then I've added its DLL file to my references.
When I've pressed F5 it works, but I can't see the Design of my WPF APP in VS2008 SP1.

The following errors have occurred :

Error	1	
Assembly 'CustomToolTip' was not found. 
Verify that you are not missing an assembly reference. 
Also, verify that your project and all referenced assemblies have been built.	
D:\My works\C#\tooltip\WpfApplication1\WpfApplication1\Window1.xaml	
4	21	WpfApplication1

Error	2	
The type 'myToolTip:UserControl1' was not found. 
Verify that you are not missing an assembly reference and that all 
referenced assemblies have been built.	
D:\My works\C#\tooltip\WpfApplication1\WpfApplication1\Window1.xaml	
21	10	WpfApplication1

By the way, I've tried Blend2 , with it I can see the Design of my App without any problems.

this is my App XAML code :

<Window x:Class="WpfApplication1.Window1"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:myToolTip="clr-namespace:CustomToolTip;assembly=CustomToolTip"
Title="Window1" Height="600" Width="800">
<Grid x:Name="rootGrid" RenderTransformOrigin="0.5,0.5">
<Grid.RenderTransform>
<TransformGroup>
<ScaleTransform ScaleX="1" ScaleY="1"/>
<SkewTransform AngleX="0" AngleY="0"/>
<RotateTransform Angle="0"/>
<TranslateTransform x:Name="rootGridXY" X="0" Y="0"/>
</TransformGroup>
</Grid.RenderTransform>
<Rectangle Margin="26,34,496,374" Name="rectangle1" Stroke="Black" 
Fill="Coral" MouseLeave="rectangle_MouseLeave" MouseMove="rectangle_MouseMove" />
<Rectangle Fill="Lavender" Margin="537,29,53,376" Name="rectangle2" 
Stroke="Black" MouseMove="rectangle_MouseMove" MouseLeave="rectangle_MouseLeave" />
<Rectangle Fill="Peru" Margin="192,391,186,37.995" Name="rectangle3" 
Stroke="Black" MouseMove="rectangle_MouseMove" MouseLeave="rectangle_MouseLeave" />
<myToolTip:UserControl1 UserControlTextBlockToolTip="Some texts" 
UserControlToolTipTitle="Title" 
Visibility="Hidden" 
x:Name="customToolTip" />
</Grid>
</Window>

Could you guide me ?
Thank you

I have been looking over WPF lately as I am trying to make the decision if I am going to move in that direction and away from standard Windows Forms stuff. It seems to get me some very nice control rendering (where before I used to have to use owner draw junk) and the binding is looking far better than standard data binding...

The only thing that is starting to get to me, after looking over every video tutorial I can find and a ton of blogs (I have not bought a book YET but plan to soon) I am seeing a ton of repetitive markup in the xaml with respect to creating styles, templates, and other stuff that really looks to me like it belongs in a project wide scope similar to that of a CSS.

Is there a context for this? I have to assume there is... I get the feeling that you would be able to put the project wide stuff into the application.xaml file?

I can't wait to get a break from my last class work to try this stuff out...

You can put your application wide resources into a ResourceDictionary. You then link to the resource dictionary in like this (assuming you're placing it in App.xaml:

<Application.Resources>
  <ResourceDictionary>
    <ResourceDictionary Source="MyResourceDictionary.xaml" />
  </ResourceDictionary>
</Application.Resources>

Convert 2D image into 3D image using WPF

hi friends,

I've an user control in WPF. It looks like an image in 2-Dimensional (ex. a washer). i want to know how to change that control like a 3-Dimensional image control and that should be rotatable if we scroll with scroll bars.

can any one help me out in this?

Thanks & Regards,
-Ravi

As I explained when I answered to you the last time you asked this question[^], you can't convert a 2D image into a 3D image in WPF automatically. You need to convert the model into a 3D mesh using a 3D tool. You can get Blender[^] for free, and this outputs to XAML.

And there are tutorials on the site. Bottom line - if you're not working on an image that can be height mapped, you need to :

a. get a copy of the software and invest the time in learning it
b. hire somebody to do it for you
or
c. buy a prebuilt model

There are plenty of blender tutorials scattered all over the web, so there should be something to help you there.

,
i tried to search some information but maybe i wrong the subject of the research so i'm here to ask some useful advice to help my research ...if you need more details as me i will answer as soon as possible.

Thanks Smile | :)

Have a fun.

One way to do this would be to set this up to use ClickOnce[^] as the install mechanism.

HI Pete,
how are you? Smile | :)

I tried ClickOnce for create a file.exe of the software and to install it in another computer,meantime i get on my computer the server with Database(both computer are connect in Lan) i could install the application correctly but when i use the it to see or save a record it got stuck with an error that couldn't connect to the server.
Now i get a doubt where i must set up the option to allow the client app to connect to the server ???
or the error is caused from another source???
I read the topic on MSDN about ClickOnce but i did not see about how set up the server and so on...

However thanks a lot for your support Smile | :)

Have a fun

Hi Pete,
me too fine Wink | ;)

,
I'm not in office now ,because i installed that application in the computer in the office ,within few hours i will come back to the office (to work too) and i will post the error.
I forget to tell you the same software that i create with ClickOnce after i installed it on my laptop and it is right i can add,delete,edit new records and navigate without error Smile | :)

that's because i have installed on my laptop also the server of database???.
Have a fun.

HI Pete,
here is morning and i begin to work ,
i post the error that you asked me :
"A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to Sql Server..."

In the software there is a file app.config with the string to connect to the SqlServer :

< ?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"? >
< configuration >
< configSections >
 < /configSections- >
  < connectionStrings >
    < add name="Card3D.Properties.Settings._3DCardConnectionString"
   connectionString="Data Source=CHICHI\ERUSYAKO;Initial Catalog=3DCard;Integrated Security=True"
      providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
  < /connectionStrings >
< /configuration >

SqlServer stay on my laptop and both computer are connect in Lan(Intranet)...
maybe i wrong in this step that follow during the creation of the file.exe with ClikcOnce :
How will users install the application?
There are 3 option
1 - From a Website.
2 - From a UNC path or file share
3 - From a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM .

I choose the number 3 ....that 's right or not?

I hope my details can help you to understand where i wrong Smile | :)

However i wish you happy health.

Bye

Try the steps in this[^] post. Let me know if this doesn't resolve your issue.

When we supply applications for general use, this is what we do.

ascotravel wrote:

That's the one we tend to go with for client site installs. That way, your users can get access to the application with the minimum of hassle.

So - let me see if I've got this straight. You have Sql Server installed, and you are using trusted connections. You've set SQL Server up to accept incoming connections and you've rolled it out. I have to wonder if the problem has to do with the database server not being able to identify users as trusted users. Are you running the database on the same domain as the users?
