Ugh, typical unhelpful Xaml/Baml traces... Really wish Microsoft would put some useful information in there.
The only strategy I know for errors like that, is to just keep commenting out bits of the XAML until it runs successfully, and then narrowing it down from there.

Really wish Microsoft would give the source code like they used to for the CRT 
I'm very happy with the Style-based solution, thanks.

What you need to do is override the HeaderTemplate for the top most items. Here's a hard coded version, that you should easily be able to extend to fit your own needs:
<Window
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
x:Class="MenuSample.MainWindow"
x:Name="Window"
Title="Menu Window"
Width="640" Height="480">
<Window.Resources>
<DataTemplate x:Key="MenuHeader">
<StackPanel>
<Image Width="24" Height="24" Source="Images/favorites_24.png" Stretch="Fill"/>
<TextBlock Text="Outsource" />
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</Window.Resources>
<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot">
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="0.106*"/>
<RowDefinition Height="0.894*"/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Menu HorizontalAlignment="Left">
<MenuItem HeaderTemplate="{DynamicResource MenuHeader}">
<MenuItem Header="Child 1" />
</MenuItem>
</Menu>
</Grid>
</Window>

Perfect. Thank you.

Ok, I don't think I understand this as well as I thought I did. Here's my code, which is just like yours:
<UserControl.Resources>
<DataTemplate x:Key="MenuHeader">
<StackPanel>
<Image Width="48" Height="48" Source="/Falcon;component/Media/Graphics/customer.png" Stretch="Uniform"/>
<TextBlock Text="Outsource" />
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</UserControl.Resources>
<Grid >
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="70"/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Menu HorizontalAlignment="Left">
<MenuItem HeaderTemplate="{DynamicResource MenuHeader}">
<MenuItem Header="Child 1" />
</MenuItem>
<MenuItem HeaderTemplate="{DynamicResource MenuHeader}">
<MenuItem Header="Child 2" />
</MenuItem>
<MenuItem HeaderTemplate="{DynamicResource MenuHeader}">
<MenuItem Header="Child 2" />
</MenuItem>
</Menu>
</Grid>
The problem is, all 3 menu headers shares the same picture and caption. How can I assign them in the menu code?
Thanks

You're getting the same picture and caption because you are using a hardcoded header template here. What you need to do is use data binding, and specify the relevant header/image from code rather than in the XAML.

Has anybody gotten TaskbarItemProgressState.Indeterminate to work on .NET 4.0 / Windows 7? All the other states work fine, just TaskbarItemProgressState.Indeterminate doesn't do anything.
|
|
|
|
|
No, unfortunately. I'm trying this now, in the year 2019 with Windows 10 version 1809 and it isn't working correctly, as to my understanding. That is, when the TaskbarItemProgressState is set to Indeterminate, the Taskbar icon of the program turns a shade of green, but there is no scrolling marque.
I've tried in both WinForms and WPF. Also, with the Chrome web browser, when it downloads a file of unknown size (HTTP header Transfer-Encoding: chunked), it used to give the scrolling marque, but now it does not. Instead, it's the same as what I'm getting in my test applications, it just turns a shade of green.

I have a style defined for a ListViewItem. In this style, there is a MultiDataTrigger. One of the conditions uses RelativeSource to get to a property in the ListView (RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor, AncestorType=ListView}).
The trigger is working correctly, just as I expect, so I know all the syntax and everything is defined correctly.
HOWEVER, when you scroll a ListView and the ListViewItem goes off screen, it gets removed from the visual tree. This results in a lot of errors:
System.Windows.Data Error: 4 : Cannot find source for binding with reference 'RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType='ListView', AncestorLevel='1''. BindingExpression:Path=SomeDP; DataItem=null; target element is 'ListViewItem' (Name=''); target property is 'NoTarget' (type 'Object')
I've tried everything I know of to get rid of them:
1) Tried adding a FallbackValue to the binding. This solves the error messages on XP, but does not work on Windows 7??? .NET 4.0 on both OSes.
2) Tried running the value through a dummy converter. This has gotten rid of error messages in the past, but not this time.
3) Tried setting the PresentationTraceSources.TraceLevel="None" AP on the condition. No effect.
Any other way to solve this?

I believe that a ListView uses a VirtualizingStackPanel for it's ItemsPanel and that the IsVirtualizing property defaults to true. Try setting it to false if you don't need your listview to hold many items. Either that or try using a regular StackPanel for the ItemsPanel.
while (e) { Coyote(); }
|
|
|
|
|
Definitely don't want to turn off virtualization. That eats a lot of memory. If I have 200 items, it adds around 50MB.

Hello!
i have a problem with the resource dictionaries in silverlight,
control styles is using the colors in my colors resource.
but when i do this i get runtime error when i load the silverlight app in my browser:
Cannot find a Resource with the Name/Key OfficeBlue [Line: 10 Position: 44]
i have confirmed that the key name exists in colors.xaml
this is from my app.xaml
<Application.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary>
<ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
<ResourceDictionary Source="Colors.xaml" />
<ResourceDictionary Source="Navigate/Control styles.xaml"/>
</ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
</ResourceDictionary>
</Application.Resources>
How do i use colors.xaml resource in my control style?
Thanks!

It is unable to find the Resource file. Give a proper path there. A typical resource dictionary path will look as below:
<ResourceDictionary>
<ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
<ResourceDictionary Source="/ASSEMBLY_NAME;component/FILENAME.xaml"/>
</ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
</ResourceDictionary>
Note: Change the name of the ASSEMBLY_NAME in the above code. Also change the FILENAME. If it is in a different sub directory, say "Themes", it will look as below:
<ResourceDictionary Source="/ASSEMBLY_NAME;component/Themes/FILENAME.xaml"/>
Hope this will answer your query. Mark as Answer, if this helps.

Hello,
While exporting the telerik chart to PNG image format, I received below mentioned error message.
<b>dialogs must be user-initiated.</b>
Perhaps the image is saved successfully. Can any one can help me why I got this type of error message?
Here is my code:
try
{
SaveFileDialog dialog = new SaveFileDialog();
dialog.DefaultExt = ".png";
dialog.Filter = "Portable Network Graphics (*.png)|*.png";
bool? showDialog = dialog.ShowDialog();
if (showDialog == true)
{
Stream fileStream = dialog.OpenFile();
MainChart.ExportToImage(fileStream, new Telerik.Windows.Media.Imaging.PngBitmapEncoder());
fileStream.Close();
}
}
|
|
|
|
|
Where are you calling this code from? Silverlight expects the SaveFileDialog to be instantiated from a user initiated event (such as responding to a Button.Click).
|
|
|
|
|
Hello,
Thanks for the response. I am calling this method in the button click event and instantiated the SaveFileDialog in the same. Still got the error.
Thanks...

Hi ,
I have a WPF - window, contains a StackPanel (designed in xmal, where height and width are Auto = 0). In code reading an image folder and adding the files to stackPanel. While adding files to image control, created a border object and intern created the image object and fina tlly adding the border to stackpanel.
Now when i try to resize the window, the stackpanel stays same size , as the image control width and hight are fixed thou the stackpanel is auto size.
below is the code snip ,
//after reading the image files, add it to stack panel
foreach (string strFile in ArrStrFiles)
{
// display the file names here
BitmapImage bi = new BitmapImage();
bi.BeginInit();
bi.CacheOption = BitmapCacheOption.OnLoad;
bi.UriSource = new Uri(strFile);
bi.EndInit();
Image img = new Image();
img.Source = bi;
img.Width = 170;
img.Height = stkPanl.ActualHeight;
img.Stretch = Stretch.Fill;
img.HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Stretch;
img.VerticalAlignment = VerticalAlignment.Stretch;
Border border = new Border();
border.Background = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Black);
border.BorderThickness = new Thickness(5);
border.BorderBrush = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Black);
border.Child = img;
stkPanl.Children.Add(border);
}
xmal :
<window ...="">
<grid>
<local:scrollviewerex x:name="scrollViewerEx" margin="92.664,0,92.349,7.137" verticalscrollbarvisibility="Hidden"
="" horizontalscrollbarvisibility="Hidden" verticalalignment="Bottom" background="Black" rendertransformorigin="0.5,0.5">
<local:scrollviewerex.rendertransform>
<transformgroup>
<scaletransform="">
<skewtransform>
<rotatetransform angle="360.216">
<translatetransform>
<stackpanel x:name="stkPanl" background="Black" orientation="Horizontal" rendertransformorigin="0.5,0.5">
Plz let me know how we can resize the stackPanel when the image is added thru code.
thanks

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to check the duplicate data is present in listbox itemtemplate..
i have listbox, where i need to check whether the data enterred by the user in textbox is duplicate or not, how to do it..
my code is like this..
<ListBox x:Name="lbDirectiveList" MaxHeight="200" SelectionChanged="lbDirectiveList_SelectionChanged" SelectionMode="Single" ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto">
<ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Grid Margin="4">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="10" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=DirectiveName}" Grid.Column="0" FontWeight="Bold" MinWidth="180"/>
<TextBlock Text=" - " Grid.Column="1"/>
<TextBlock Grid.Column="2" Text="{Binding Path=Descr }" />
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>
ObservableCollection<Directive> listdata=new ObservableCollection<Directive>();
class Directive
{
public string DirectiveName { get; set; }
public string Descr { get; set; }
}
Directive lstdir=new Directive {DirectiveName=txt1.Text.Trim(),Descr=txt2.Text.Trim()};
void Add(object sender,RoutedEventArgs e)
{
if(!listdata.Contains(lstdir))
{MessageBox.Show("Insert");}
else MessageBox.Show("Duplicate Data");
}
it is taking the duplicate value, after using the above code...
so any help on this...

In the code where you bind the property of the textbox, write some code to check if if the text box value is already contained within the collection that binds to the listbox. You can then handle the duplicate as you like.
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it.

hi, i have used the code like the way u said, still its not running the code inside it(if Condition)...
Directive lstdir = new Directive { DirectiveName = txtDirectiveName.Text.Trim(), DirectiveDescription = txtDirectiveDescription.Text.Trim() };

Hello,
I have a UserControl that exposes a Selection property:
public partial class FeatureSelectionControl : UserControl
{
public string[] Selection
{
get { return (string[])GetValue(SelectionProperty); }
set { SetValue(SelectionProperty, value); }
}
public static readonly DependencyProperty SelectionProperty =
DependencyProperty.Register("Selection", typeof(string[]), typeof(FeatureSelectionControl), new UIPropertyMetadata(new string[] { }));
I want to use it in a window and bind the control's property to one of the window's properties:
<Window Name="Window" ...>
<local:FeatureSelectionControl Selection="{Binding ElementName=Window,Path=CustomerGroups}" ...>
</local:FeatureSelectionControl>
Code behind:
public partial class WindowCounterpartyGroupRiskReview : Window
{
public WindowCounterpartyGroupRiskReview()
{
CustomerGroups = new string[] { };
InitializeComponent();
}
public string[] CustomerGroups { get; set; }
This crashes with a "first chance exception of type 'System.NullReferenceException' occurred in PresentationFramework.dll Additional information: Object reference not set to an instance of an object". STack trace is:
PresentationFramework.dll!System.Windows.Markup.BamlRecordReader.ProvideValueFromMarkupExtension(System.Windows.Markup.MarkupExtension markupExtension = null, object obj = {System.Windows.Markup.BamlCollectionHolder}, object member = null) + 0x52 bytes

> CRRT.exe!CRRT.WindowCounterpartyGroupRiskReview.InitializeComponent() Line 1 + 0xb bytes C#
However, when I change my code and make the property a mere string, I don't get an exception and everything works as expected.
Any idea ?
