If you put the code in imgControl.ContextMenuOpening, you should be able to make this work. You don't need to size the main menu or its children WPF should measure and display correctly.

Yep that worked thanks for the help.
I did notice that the first time i right click on an image that i created at run time, i have to click twice to get the contect menu to show. The next time i right click on the same image i only have to click once. not sure what is going on there.
but thanks again for the help

I have a StackPanel specified in the XAML, and I'm trying to add children to it programatically. My code looks something like this:
First the Xaml... (I would have formatted this correctly, but CP is blowing chunks on the formatting stuff, so you're getting this as plain text)
<UserControl.Resources>
<Style x:Key="BorderStyle" TargetType="Border">
...
</Style>
<Style x:Key="LabelStyle" TargetType="dataInput:Label">
...
</Style>
</UserControl>
<Grid>
<StackPanel Name="stackPanel" Orientation="Horizontal" Height="60" >
<Border Width="300"/>
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
And in my CS code (being called from the <code>UserControl</code>'s constructor, after <code>InitializeComponent()</code>...
<pre>Border border = new Border()
border.Style = this.Resources["BorderStyle"] as Style;
Label label = new Label();
label.Style = this.Resources["LabelStyle"] as Style;
border.Child = label;
stackPanel.Children.Add(border);
</pre>
When I run the code, I get a "Catastrophic failure" exception, and as you might guuess, the app dies a horrible death. What am I doing wrong?

This is working perfectly well for me. What do you have in your styles?

Do you see the error? I did while I was posting this.

I do see a problem with the CornerRadius. It would be better if the error message was more helpful.

Yeah - "catastrophic failure" ain't exactly intuitive.

Alright. I've been dickin' around with text rotation for two days, and I still don't get it. When I turn text 90 degrees i expected it to automatically adjust it's properties to essentially reflect it's original layout, only turn on its side. If I have a Label centered in a Border, and I rotate the Label, I have to dick around in Blend to get it to show up without being curt off, and without having to resize the container, and ll manner of other adjustments just to get the appearance I want.
I finally got tired of it last night, and I'm hoping someone answers this post before I get to work. Do I have to actually create a container (like a canvas) and put the text into the canvas to get what I want? What's the best way to do this?

You are applying a transformation on the label, not the container, so any transformation you apply will have an effect only on the Label. If the container isn't big enough then the transformation will get cut off. You do need to transform the container instead.

I'm trying to rotate a Label , and while the label is indeed rotating, the top/bottom of the text is cutoff. As you can see in the code posted below, I tried setting the width/height of the label, but that effected no visual change. What am I doing wrong?

Just remove
<Setter Property="HorizontalAlignment" Value="Center" /><br />
<br />
<Setter Property="VerticalAlignment" Value="Center" />
from your style and things should be fine.
*Edit*
You would also need to remove the hardcoded width
<Setter Property="Width" Value="30" />
from your first style.

Really weird.
I have used the following code (I even changed the text but then I had to increase the heights of the stackpanel to 160 each).

I neglected to remove the width property from the border style.

Hi,
I have the below 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"
DataContext="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}}"
WindowStartupLocation="CenterScreen"
Title="Window1" Height="300" Width="300">
<Grid>
<Image x:Name="TestImage" Source="{Binding Path=ImageSource}" />
</Grid>
</Window>
Now, I'm gonna set the `TestImage` with the below method :
Image Base64StringToImage(string base64ImageString)
{
try
{
byte[] b;
b = Convert.FromBase64String(base64ImageString);
MemoryStream ms = new System.IO.MemoryStream(b);
System.Drawing.Image img = System.Drawing.Image.FromStream(ms);
System.Drawing.Bitmap bmp = new System.Drawing.Bitmap(img);
IntPtr hBitmap = bmp.GetHbitmap();
System.Windows.Media.ImageSource imageSource = System.Windows.Interop.Imaging.CreateBitmapSourceFromHBitmap(hBitmap, IntPtr.Zero, Int32Rect.Empty, BitmapSizeOptions.FromEmptyOptions());
Image wpfImage = new Image();
wpfImage.Source = imageSource;
wpfImage.Width = wpfImage.Height = 16;
return wpfImage;
}
catch
{
Image img1 = new Image();
img1.Source = new BitmapImage(new Uri(@"/passwordManager;component/images/TreeView/empty-bookmark.png", UriKind.Relative));
img1.Width = img1.Height = 16;
return img1;
}
}
I've used the following code, but it doesn't work :
public string ImageSource { get; set; }
ImageSource = Base64StringToImage("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").Source.ToString();
Actually , I have a problem with converting ImageSource to string !
Would you please guide me, how I can do it ?
Thanks.

Hi
I want to set the backgound of the DataGridRow based on the item which is displayed by that row. I use the DataGrid to diplay the people in the phone book. I want to set the background of the row based on the country in which that person lives. Does anyone knows how can I do that? Any advice will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Uros

You could change the background color using a trigger as shown here.

Hello
I am confused how i have to use the setter and property tags in a ListView style.
I want a rounded border with the color red if i click on a item.
It would be nice if someone can show me a simple example.
thx

I found this post too and some others. But i can´t find a solution for my problem. I found an example which is almost i want.
The border in this solution is very "light" but i need a solid border. I tried alot but i didn´t hit the correct switches.
So can someone point me to the right way?
<Style x:Key="RedGlowItemContainer" TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}">
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}">
<Border Background="Black" CornerRadius="4" BorderThickness="1" x:Name="IconBorder" Margin="1,1,1,1" >
<ContentPresenter />
</Border>
<ControlTemplate.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="IsSelected" Value="true">
<Setter TargetName="IconBorder" Property="BitmapEffect">
<Setter.Value>
<OuterGlowBitmapEffect GlowColor="White" GlowSize="5"/>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Trigger>
</ControlTemplate.Triggers>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>

Check the documentation for the different properties of a Border control. Change the colour, increase the thickness etc.
It's time for a new signature.
