Pentaho specialise in reporting applications whereas WPF is the next generation of building Windows applications. You might as well ask how apples compare to chairs. If you want to do dedicated reporting, use a dedicated reporting application. If you want to build software, use something that was designed for building applications.

Then let's say we are adding decor to a room....and the apple is among fruits in a basket.

I'm looking for a statement similar to "WPF's close ties to Direct3D/DirectX provides more advanced rendering capabilities, useful in presenting animated graph plots."

Another example, on codeproject or somewhere else, I came across some app done in WPF that provides the drill-down capability on maps similar to maps.google.com.

Search engines cannot parse text that is within the silverlight app (.xap). There are a couple ideas floating out there to help with seo and silverlight however, I don't know how effective they are. One ideas is to dynamically generate text into the <object> tags that render the silverlight. The idea behind this is that if "something" in this case a search engine cannot render silverlight, it will go after what ever is in the object tags. Just to be more clear, this is not a search engine thing, it's a silverlight thing. If a browser that did not have silverlight installed, it also would see what you had between the object tags.

Well... first answer Silverlight SEO... NO, something like flash.

Second response... there are some ways (not as good as the old HTML text based stuff Smile | :)

TreeItem with right-aligned delete button

Steve The Plant5-Mar-09 11:06

5-Mar-09 11:06

Hi,

I'm new to WPF, so please bear with me.

I have a tree of objects. For every item on the tree, I'd like to have a delete button that is right-aligned.

Here's my best text-based representation:

[----------------------------]
scene
entity 1 x
entity 2 x
child entity 1 x
child entity 2 x
entity 3 x
[----------------------------]

The 'x' represents a delete button, or a small x icon.

What's the best way to do this?

Thanks!

You can override the TreeViewItem template ?

<Style TargetType="TreeViewItem">
    <Setter Property="Template">
        <Setter.Value>

            <ControlTemplate TargetType="TreeViewItem">
                <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                    <TextBox></Button>
                    <Button>X</Button>               
               </StackPanel>
            </ControlTemplate>
        </Setter.Value>
    </Setter>
</Style>

TreeView With Arbitrary Number of Child Items

Steve The Plant5-Mar-09 10:59

5-Mar-09 10:59

Hi there,

I'm new to WPF, so bear with me.

I'm trying to make something like a class browser. I have a tree of objects, but each child in the tree is based on whether the object has variables of a certain type.

For example, say I have an Entity class for my game engine. I can have any number of variables in the class, or any derived classes, but I'm only interested in all the variables of type Vector. So for a hypothetical scene, I'd like to show a tree like:

scene
entity 1
vector worldposition
entity 2
vector worldposition
vector lookat
vector orientation

(I hope that was clear enough)

[Edit]

An additional challenge is if an entity has a variable of type Entity. So another hypothetical scene might look like:

entity 1
vector worldposition
entity 2
vector worldposition
vector lookat
vector orientation
entity 3
vector worldposition
entity child
vector worldposition
vector lookat

The scene could theoretically keep going like this, covering every child entity.

What's the best way to display this in a TreeView?

Thanks!

If you provide a DataTemplate for each of the types, it should pick it up automatically. Check this post[^] from Mark. It should give you an idea.

I am interested in writing a few Silverlight components to put on an aspx page, using them kind of like web parts. They would need to be able to fire events and take properties though.

Has anyone else out there done this?

WPF Bind code behind to element property

5-Mar-09 9:28

Hello,

I am trying to bind a variable in the code behind to the visibility property of an element. Here is what I have:

xaml:
<groupbox visibility="{Binding CarrierPreviewVisibility}" grid.row="1" header="Carriers">

code behind:
//Property
private System.Windows.UIElement carrierPreviewVisibility;
public System.Windows.UIElement CarrierPreviewVisibility
{
get
{
return carrierPreviewVisibility;
}
set
{
carrierPreviewVisibility = value;
NotifyPropertyChanged("CarrierPreviewVisibility");
}
}

/* code in constructor. THE BELOW CODE IS WRONG. The error is "Cannot implicity convert string to System.Windows.UIElement. */

this.CarrierPreviewVisibility = "Hidden"

Am I totally off base here? Does anyone know how to do this?

Any ideas

You cannot assign a type string to an object of type UIElement. What are you trying to do ?

I would suggest you change your property to have a type System.Windows.Visibility[^]. If you are confused in the way we set visibility in XAML, like in XAML we specify a string then, I would point out that XAML automatically does a conversion of the string value to the specified type. But, if you do it in code, you would require to handle it on your own.

I have a combobox which loads and displays exactly how I want it to, it is in a view and I am able to retrieve the pieces from this view without any problem. The problem I have is when I throw the object back at the view the combobox(which is bound to a collection of objects) the combobox doesn't show the information. What am I missing?

Here is the combobox XAML:
<ComboBox x:Name="cboParameterName"
IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem="True"
TabIndex="10"
Grid.Column="1"
Grid.ColumnSpan="4"
ItemsSource="{Binding Path=ParameterNameCollection, Mode=Default}"
SelectedValue="{Binding SelectedParameter.Name}"
Style="{DynamicResource BaseComboBox}">
<ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding ParameterDisplayName}"/>
</DataTemplate>
</ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
</ComboBox>

Did you try with Two-way binding ? Or else refer to this[^], Eslam has provided a sample with INotifyPropertyChanged.
