There's no need to worry about my original post. By adding xmlns:src="clr-namespace:Host.ShellComponents.ParasiteWindow;assembly=Host" along with the other xmlns XAML, and then setting the root element to src:ParasiteWindow, I can compile successfully. But now I have another problem. How do I host a WPF Window (or equivalent) in a Windows Form? I've been trying to use the System.Windows.Interop.WindowInteropHelper class, and this shows the Window, but not as a child of the Windows Forms host

I have the following style:
<Style TargetType="{x:Type Image}" >
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type Button},
AncestorLevel=1}, Path=IsEnabled}" Value="False">
<Setter Property="Opacity" Value="0.40" />
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
Where do I put it if I want it to be global to the application, and how do I get to it once it's there?

I tried that and it kept telling me something about content already having been defined. BTW, I was trying to put it inside the Application.Resources element.

Currently the way you have it defined
<style targettype="{x:Type Image}"></style>
this assigns this style to all of the image types within the scope. If you have this definition elsewhere (Window.Resources or elsewhere) you could have a conflict. If you want to have it only affect a select few controls you can add a key to it reference it on the controls you want it to be used on.
Have you looked at WPF Themes project? http://http://www.codeplex.com/wpfthemes[^] I believe they are doing something similar to what you want.

You can find a description of the resource lookup behavior here:
WPF: Resources Overview[^]
That may help you coose the most appropriate place.

I've already been there and it was no help.

John Simmons / outlaw programmer wrote: global to the application
If I have a style or template that I want to be global I use a MergedDictionary, for example.
<Application.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary>
<ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
<ResourceDictionary Source="Dictionaries\Styles.xaml" />
</ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
</ResourceDictionary>
</Application.Resources>
John Simmons / outlaw programmer wrote: how do I get to it once it's there
You would access the style/template using the key you define for it.
Resource dictionary:
<ControlTemplate x:Key="NormalButtonTemplate" TargetType="{x:Type Button}">
snip...
</ControlTemplate>
Then in your xaml you would assign it using the key in this case:
<Button Template="{DynamicResource NormalButtonTemplate}" />
Hope that helps

It is possible to put your Style in the App.xaml with the <application.resources> and that will put your style at the application level and in order to access it you can Style="{StaticResource (Name Here)}" and that will get your Style from the application resources.
|
|
|
|
|
You could also put these in a separate Style dll altogether ...

Consider the following code:
<Canvas Panel.ZIndex="999" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Width="225" Height="262" VerticalAlignment="Top">
<Expander Margin="-13,-47,0,-210" Name="expander1" Background="Transparent" HorizontalAlignment="Left"
Width="221" Height="257" Canvas.Top="48" Canvas.Left="14">
<Expander.Header>
<Rectangle Height="26" Margin="22,-21,0,0" Name="rectangle1"
Stroke="OrangeRed" VerticalAlignment="Top" RadiusX="8" RadiusY="8" Fill="DarkBlue" />
<Label Margin="22,-20,0,0" Background="Transparent" Foreground="White" Name="label99"
FontFamily="Arial" FontSize="14" FontWeight="Bold" FontStyle="Italic"
HorizontalContentAlignment="Center"
Content="BTN:123-456-7890" Height="26" VerticalAlignment="Top" />
</Expander.Header>
<Grid >
<Grid.BitmapEffect>
<DropShadowBitmapEffect />
</Grid.BitmapEffect>
<telerik:RadTreeView blah blah blah />
</Grid>
</Expander>
</Canvas>
The designer is giving the following error:
The property "Header" is set more than once.
I don't understand why I'm getting this error - there's only one header specification in the control.

I'm not an expert at all but in this case you just can't use several controls inside the header.
Instead you can use a Grid or Stackpanel or similar and there put your Rectangle and Label.
|
|
|
|
|
It is because you are trying to add two elements the Rectangle and Label. You can put both inside a grid or other kind of panel or maybe you could put the label inside a border and not need the Rectangle.
|
|
|
|
|
Expander.Header is an object not a collection. You can't put both a rectangle and a label in it. Put only one object.

I have a datagrid with a DataGridTemplateColumn. The DataTemplate is a Image wrapped by a Button.
<wpftoolkit:DataGridTemplateColumn Header="Search Type" IsReadOnly="True" >
<wpftoolkit:DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Button x:Name="btn" Width="25" Height="25" >
<Image x:Name="icoDisplay" Source="../Resources/plus.png"></Image>
</Button>
</DataTemplate>
</wpftoolkit:DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
</wpftoolkit:DataGridTemplateColumn>
I'm trying to change the image source when a row is selected. I want to show an image with a "+" when the details for a row are not showing. I want to show an image with a "-" when the details for a row are showing. I want to change the image source when the row is selected in any cell of the row, not just when the button/image are selected. I don't have to have the button there if it can be done without it.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I have a WPF DataGrid (from WPFToolkit) which dispays the results of several queries from a database.
I am returning the results to a datatable and then setting the DataContext of the DataGrid to = the DataTable, so no Binding.
I need to programatically format the "StringFormat" of each column at runtime ie. for Date - "dd MM yyyy" etc.
This is very easy to do with a normal windows forms DataGridView but looks to be nearly impossible to do with the WPF Datagrid.
I cannot create the columns in XAML as I do not know what they will be, every query is different and can change what it returns.
I have spent 2 days trying to resolve this issue, and have not found a single post which actually solves this problem.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Just Use AutoGeneratedColumns Event of the DataGrid:-
In the below mentioned example DataGrid Name is "dgvTimming"
void dgvTimming_AutoGeneratedColumns(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
foreach (DataGridColumn item in dgvTimming.Columns)
{
switch (item.Header.ToString())
{
case "Plan_Timing":
item.Header = "Plan Timing";
break;
case "Pacesetter":
case "Contingent":
if (item.GetType().ToString() == "Microsoft.Windows.Controls.DataGridTextColumn")
{
DataGridTextColumn dg = (DataGridTextColumn)item;
dg.Binding.StringFormat = "C";
}
if (item.Header.ToString() == "Contingent")
item.IsReadOnly = true;
break;
}
}
}

How do I go about adding a 'Command' property to a custom WPF control derived from an existing control? I want to use the Command property the same way you would use a Command property on a button--to bind to any ICommand or routed command.
I rely heavily on MVVM, and my UI controls are almost always bound to ICommand objects in my view model. I have started using the Actipro Wizard control for my WPF wizards, and it's very good. But it's missing one thing: It won't let you bind a command to the activation of a wizard page.
In many wizards, a process should start automatically when a wizard page is activated. For example, in a file copy wizard, pages 1 and 2 get file paths from the user, and when the user advances to page 3, the copy should begin automatically, displaying a progress bar for the operation.
Unfortunately, the Actipro WizardPage doesn't have a Command property that fires a command when the page is activated. It does have a 'Selected' event, which I'm using now. But I would rather bind to a command in XAML, so I am extending the ActiPro WizardPage control to add a 'Command' property that will fire when the page is activated.
Can anyone point me to any articles or blogs on how to implement a 'Command' property and give the derived control the CanExecute() behavior expected of a command-bound control? Thanks.

Found my answer. A derived control that wants to implement a Command property must implement the ICommandSource interface. There is an MSDN article[^] that shows how to do it, as well as a code sample[^].

Hi,
I have a WPF textbox and I want to validate the text the user types i.e. only numbers are allowed. To do this I have set
<pre>Text="{Binding MobileNumber, Mode=TwoWay, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}</pre>
And the property is
<pre> public string MobileNumber {
get {
return mobileNumber;
}
set
{
if (AllowedPhoneNumberCharacter(value))
mobileNumber = value;
OnPropertyChanged("MobileNumber");
}
}</pre>
If the user types a character we came to <i>set </i> and after OnPropertyChanged("MobileNumber"); a call to <i>get </i>is made. But the textbox is not updated, why?
Example:
09876 :User types o phone number. OK
098767 :User adda a digit 7. OK
098767g :Not OK to add g. Now I want to update textbox with 098767.
Regards
Marc
