As far as I know, there's no support for encoding 8bpp PNG in either
the WPF imaging classes or GDI+ (System.Drawing). You'll probably need
a third-party encoder or roll your own.

I don't mind rolling my own - I've written image-processing libraries in C++ using DirectX in the past.
But all the third-party libraries I've found are implemented OUTSIDE of .Net and just use C# wrappers for use in .Net. This makes me skeptical whether .Net is suitable for writing a graphics format class.
Does .Net provide enough fast, efficient rendering primitives to implement a good graphics library? Or does it make more sense to write a converter to/from some format .Net already knows about, like .BMP?
In other words, what it the correct "dot net" way to implement a class for a format that Microsoft doesn't support?
Or should I forget about .Net for this altogether?

Hi,
I have 3 different uploads from client to server, I want to show 3 different Progress bars for 3 uploads.
Finally I want to show one final progress bar showing the status of above uploads collectively.
Does that mean I have to use 4 background workers?
I am totally lost here. All the background worker examples show only one progress bar.
If anyone find an example with multiple progress bars, please send me the link.
Any clue or help will be appreciated,

I am getting Accessviolation Exception. "allResponses" array is not modifying at all. The same procedure if I do without threads working fine, but no progress indication to the user.
Please help.

Nobody's going to help you until a) your code is properly formatted, and b) you can whittle it down to something that doesn't require more than one scrolled page.
Lastly, this is the WPF/WCF/WWF forum. How is your question related to any of these topics?

I'm not going to put much effort into reading that big chunk of unformatted code,
but to start with, it looks like you have multiple threads accessing the "allResponses"
array and the "i" variable with no synchronization.
As for the exception - this should be easy to debug. Either the array is null or you're
trying to write past the end (i.e. the array is not large enough)...

I am getting a eroor from my code, i cant trace the issue/bug . here is my code bit...

<br />
for (int i = 0; i < Children.Count; i++)<br />
{<br />
UIElement item = Children[i];<br />
double radians = (double)item.GetValue(CarouselPanel.AngleProperty);<br />
<br />

item.SetValue(Canvas.ZIndexProperty, zIndex);<br />
Rect r = new Rect(p.X, p.Y, ItemSize, ItemSize);<br />
item.Arrange(r);<br />
}<br />
}
What could be the issue i am using a WPF(win) application.

I can't see the Identity property in your code. Are you sure this is where the problem is?

Basically, you have a frozen object here (you can tell this by checking mt.Matrix.IsFrozen). Once an object is frozen, you can't modify it - instead, you have to clone it and work with that.

i cannot find any handle like that, but i found something mt.Matrix.IsIdentity which is returns a bool value. What it does?..
Your corperation is really appreciated!

This property identifies whether or not a matrix is the identity matrix. Basically, an identity matrix is a square matrix which has 1s on the main diagonal and 0s elsewhere.

Hello,
Currently im hanging on one Problem. I wrote a class inherting from grid. Each grid has the property
children. How can i get an notification when a new children added to the grid. I need somethink like a
event which occours when the children-cout changed. I hope you understand what i mean.
Thanks in advanced

You're looking at the ObservableCollection - that notifies you when an item has been added or removed from a collection.

The Children property of a Grid is a UIElementCollection, which is not Observable, and is sealed.
So I have the same question - is there any way to see if the Children collection in a Panel has changed?

Does anyone know where to find the complete default control template xaml listings for the WPF controls?
Thanks.
Bob

The WPF documentation doesn’t list the XAML for standard control templates. But, you can write program to get the control template and then modify it and Re-Apply it.
Here is the program to get the control Template Markup of a given control.
In a Main window take a listbox control to enlist all the controls, and when any item is selected the corrosponding Control Template's Markup is displayed in a Textblock control.
Here is the WPF program to demonstrate the same
This is the XAML part
<Window x:Class="DefaultControlTemplate.Window1"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="Window1" Height="462" Width="572" Loaded="Window_Loaded" >
<Grid>
<ListBox Margin="12,12,0,12" Name="listBox1" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Width="168" SelectionChanged="listBox1_SelectionChanged" />
<TextBlock HorizontalAlignment="Right" Margin="0,14,12,10" Name="textBlock1" Width="159" />
</Grid>
</Window>
This is how .cs file would look like
private void Window_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
Type controlType = typeof(Control);
List<Type> ctrlTypes = new List<Type>();
//searches all the types in a dll where generic control class is defined
Assembly assembly = Assembly.GetAssembly(typeof(Control));
foreach (Type type in assembly.GetTypes())
{
// Only add a type of the list if it's a Control, a concrete class,
// and public.
if (type.IsSubclassOf(controlType) && !type.IsAbstract && type.IsPublic)
{
ctrlTypes.Add(type);
}
}
listBox1.ItemsSource = ctrlTypes;
}
------------------------------------------------------------
private void listBox1_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
try
{
// Get the selected type.
Type type = (Type)listBox1.SelectedItem;
// Instantiate the type.
ConstructorInfo info = type.GetConstructor(System.Type.EmptyTypes);
Control control = (Control)info.Invoke(null);
// Get the template.
ControlTemplate template = control.Template;
// Get the XAML for the template.
XmlWriterSettings settings = new XmlWriterSettings();
settings.Indent = true;
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
XmlWriter writer = XmlWriter.Create(sb, settings);
XamlWriter.Save(template, writer);
textBlock1.Text = sb.ToString();
}
catch (Exception err)
{
textBlock1.Text = "<< Error generating template: " + err.Message + ">>";
}
}
---------------------------------------------------------
Let me explain the code:
At the Window_loaded event, I have enlisted all the controls in a list box.
When any of the items from list box is selected, I have created the control as per selection, got it's control template and serialized into XML and displayed the same in textblock as text.
If you want, you can start with a simpler program, say a window has a button and a textblock. When clicked on button,
the corrosponding XAML for button's control template will be displayed in textblock. In this case, Button is instantiated, hence need to created Button Object, as shown below.
private void button1_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
ControlTemplate template = ((Control)sender).Template;
XmlWriterSettings settings = new XmlWriterSettings();
settings.Indent = true;
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
XmlWriter writer = XmlWriter.Create(sb, settings);
XamlWriter.Save(template, writer);
label1.Content = sb.ToString();
}

I ran your first version which looks promising, only the line:
ControlTemplate template = control.Template;
Always assigns a null value to the template variable.
The error message is typically:
<< Error generating template: Parameter name: obj>>
Are you seeing the same thing?
Thanks for your reply,
Bob
|
|
|
|
|
The error is obviously thrown by the line:
XamlWriter.Save(template, writer);
since template is null.
|
|
|
|
|
It appears that when you construct a WPF control in code, its Template property isn't initialized. For example:
ListBox listBox = new ListBox();
If you instantiate a ListBox like this, then walk the object hierarchy down to the Template property of the Control base class, you'll see that it hasn't been initilaized.
|
|
|
|
|
Turns out, after a little more exploration, that the Template property will be null unless the control has been rendered on the screen.
