Sorry, thought it backed up your comment of using IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem="True"

Hopefully this will be an easy one for someone to answer!!
I have a class (CollectionsViewModel) with a static properity in (they dont have to be static), which return a List.
I want to call the propertiy in xmal to set my itemsource of a combo.
Here is what i have
ItemsSource="{Binding Source={x:Static collections:CollectionsViewModel}, Path=GetQueueCollection}"
where collections is defined as the namespace of CollectionsViewModel class
I can't set the CollectionsViewModel to the datacontext, as that is set to another class
Any help/links most welcome

Hi,
For a project concerning a planning application, we encounter major WPF performance problems.
The application has to show a grid-like presentation of persons on the Y-axis and dates on the X-axis,
and every "cell" represents a duty or task for the person on this date. The presentation of one cell is graphical,
drawing a rounded rectangle and some lines and text.
Now we have to be able to show a full month for around 200 persons, yielding a total of 6000 cells. (so this means 6000 rectangles, 24000 textblocks, 12000 lines). Of course this is not shown onscreen all at once, only around 5 days on the X-axis and 10 persons on the Y-axis (so 50 cells at once on-screen)
we have tried a multitude of approaches, ranging from drawing everything upfront in a grid/canvas within a scrollviewer. It takes over 10 seconds before anything is shown on screen (no doubt due to the layouting) but once
it was shown, scrolling was really fast.
Then we tried an approach with itemscontrols/listbox of listboxes/virtualizing stackpanel, which made that the grid
was initially shown much faster, but then scrolling was unacceptably slow.
Can anyone give some starting points on how to tackle this problem ? We looked at some third party grid controls,
and also the WPF toolkit grid on Codeplex, but it feels like this would not be an adequate solution to our problem.
Kind regards,
Sven.

Hi,
I have made custom shapes that the user can draw on a canvas. Now I want to add an adorner around the shape when the user selects it. Normal I use the DesiredSize property to get the size of the element that I want to adorn (in this case the shape). The problem is that de desired size of my custom shapes start at the origin of the canvas (0, 0). The endpoint is correct (bottom-right point of the shape).
Does anybody knows how I can solve this so the startpoint is the top-left corner of the shape?
Thanks,
Bart
PS: I draw the shapes in "protected override Geometry DefiningGeometry"

Good people,
How do I enable a TextBox to allow empty returns. For example, when I press enter, it will allow a new line or blank lines if I press it multiple times.
Sort of like what I did to get to this new line, I just pressed enter a few times.
Thanks for any information you can provide.

Hi,
WPF is still a nerw technology for me and now I am in trouble with static ressources.
Actually:
I've made a TextBlock which should be changing its static ressource on click event!
So I have made two styles.
1. Style x:Key="CalendarDayStyle" TargetType="TextBlock"
2. Style x:Key="SelectedCalendarDayStyle" TargetType="TextBlock"
The TextBlock normally is set to
Style="{StaticResource CalendarDayStyle}"
Trying things like
((TextBlock)sender).Style = Style="{StaticResource SelectedCalendarDayStyle}";
is not working.
How can I solve this. Maybe I am wrong and static resource can not be changed from code behind.

Keep in mind that the "Style" property is still a property that takes a Style instance. The StaticResource markup extension is just a helper class that looks up a named resource (of type STYLE) and assigns it to that property.
Accordingly, in code, you need to look up the style resource yourself and assign it - StaticResource is nothing you are using at this time. What you are looking for is the FindResource method.
However, changing a style in code behind to switch the look when a textbox is selected is not the WPF way of doing things. Usually, you just write one style and use triggers to exchange the look as soon as the textbox is selected. Do a short Google search - there are tons of samples around.

Thank you for pointing us in the right direction.

You can change a resource from code behind, but it's important to understand that XAML code in {} sections is actually syntactic sugar for a fairly complex binding mechanism. What you would need to do would be to use FindResource to find the appropriate resource and apply it.
A better way (and the correct WPF way) would be to apply a data trigger to the Click event where you applied the style in the XAML. This has the advantage that the WPF binding mechanism would only apply the style while the item was clicked - it resets it once the click has finished.

Suppose I have a resource file like this
<UserControl.Resources>
<Style x:Key="LightGrayBackground" TargetType="{x:Type igEditors:XamTextEditor}">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="LightGray"></Setter>
</Style>
</UserControl.Resources>
Now I will access this
TryFindResource("LightGrayBackground") as Style

try this
TextBlockID.Style = DirectCast((App.Current.Resources("CalendarDayStyle")), Style)
your app like this
<Application.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary>
<ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
<ResourceDictionary Source="Assets/Styles.xaml">
<ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
<ResourceDictionary>
<Application.Resources>

Hi all,
I am a german developer in C#, c/c++ and others. Just a few weeks I have been start to learn WPF with C#!
No I am trying to write a wpf styled DateTimePicking Form and it is nearly finished.
But I have some Problems with the Styles.
1. I have made the list view with binding to a property which contains 7
fields for each week. Now I have a monthly display of the days, but
I can only click the whole row. How can I select a single subitem
from this wpf list view?
2. I also need a possibility to read this selected value (day).
3. The ListView Header have a separator, which is changing the
width. But how can I prevent resizing the columns?
4. The ListView Headers have a mouse over effect. How can I
disable the mouse over effevt for the Headers only?
regards,
eXi

You could probably dig into the ListView style and template to get what you want,
but I personally would use the DataGrid control from the WPF toolkit (assuming you're
using the Grid view on your ListView).
Using the DataGrid, getting your desired look and feel (single cell select, no resizing
columns, no header mouseover effect) would be as simple as something like this:
<wpftk:DataGrid x:Name="dataGrid1" AutoGenerateColumns="True" SelectionUnit="Cell" SelectionMode="Single"
CanUserResizeColumns="False" CanUserSortColumns="False"
ItemsSource="..." GridLinesVisibility="All" VerticalGridLinesBrush="Black" HeadersVisibility="Column"
AlternatingRowBackground="LightSteelBlue" Height="300" >
<wpftk:DataGrid.ColumnHeaderStyle>
<Style TargetType="{x:Type wpftk:DataGridColumnHeader}" BasedOn="{StaticResource {x:Type wpftk:DataGridColumnHeader}}">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="SteelBlue" />
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="White" />
<Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Center" />
</Style>
</wpftk:DataGrid.ColumnHeaderStyle>
</wpftk:DataGrid>
*edit* Also, see Jaime Rodriguez's three part article on the DataGrid:

Good Morning,
thanks a lot for you reply.
Actually I solved it with a TextBlock-Collection, sure this is not a clean way to develope, but it works.
The DataGrid will be interesting and I will get into it in the next days.

I have a button on a control, which itself is on a window. The window doesn't know about the button, but it needs to handle the event. The way I've been doing it up to now is to add x:FieldModifier="public" to the button, but that somehow feels wrong (even though it works).
Is this the most proper way to handle event in this situation, or is there a more WPF-appropriate way to do it?

The standard .NET way to do this is for the user-control to have an event that exposes the internal event. If the button is called say "Save", then the user-control will have a Save event, and the Save event will be internally fired from the click handler for the button. The window now handles this exposed event on the user-control.
Making the user-control's button public is not a very good approach at all (like you said). That's a typical VB6-ish way of doing things.
