Hard to say from that - we only have half the picture here. Tell you what, what do you see if you change the DataGridTemplateColumns into DataGridTextColumns? What appears in the text? Is the source correct then?

made stackedbarseries in silverlight to show "projects gantt chart"
now I wanna change the numbers shown in the Axes-X for example we have Worker John:
pr1: 201105 - 201115
pr2: 201120 - 201144
pr3: 201142 - 201207
etc...
so I made 2 series that the first seria is with tranceparent color then I make function that change the WW to range from 201101 (dont need before..) so the chart looks like:
pr1: 5-15
pr2: 20-44
pr3: 42-60 (53+7 or 52+7 depends on year)
now how can I change the Axes display to the original?
the code in xaml is:
<toolkit:Chart Name="ProjectChart" Title="Projects" Visibility="Visible" >
<toolkit:Chart.Series>
<toolkit:StackedBarSeries FontWeight="Bold" MouseLeftButtonUp="StackedBarSeries_MouseLeftButtonUp" MouseEnter="StackedBarSeries_MouseEnter">
<toolkit:SeriesDefinition ItemsSource="{Binding}" Visibility="Collapsed" Title="" Name="serEmpty"
DependentValueBinding="{Binding tranceparent_ser}"
IndependentValueBinding="{Binding projectName}"
>
<toolkit:SeriesDefinition.DataPointStyle>
<Style TargetType="toolkit:BarDataPoint">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Transparent"/>
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="Transparent"/>
<Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="0"/>
</Style>
</toolkit:SeriesDefinition.DataPointStyle>
</toolkit:SeriesDefinition>
<toolkit:SeriesDefinition ItemsSource="{Binding}" Title="Project" Name="serProjects"
DependentValueBinding="{Binding project_ser}"
IndependentValueBinding="{Binding projectName}">
<toolkit:SeriesDefinition.DataPointStyle>
<Style TargetType="toolkit:BarDataPoint">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Blue"/>
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="Blue"/>
<Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="1"/>
</Style>
</toolkit:SeriesDefinition.DataPointStyle>
</toolkit:SeriesDefinition>
</toolkit:StackedBarSeries>
</toolkit:Chart.Series>
</toolkit:Chart>
thanks

I get no difficulties binding to <settings> tag, as well as tags contained into it.
I get no difficulties to bind the <system> tag into a list box.....but I don't know how to bind to tags into <topplayed>.
How to populate a listbox with all <topplayed> elements of the currently selected <system>?

Hi All,
I need to play streaming videos like Live TV News and live Cricket etc. in my WPF Application.
I used Media Element But it did not worked out. If anyone has done that in any way please help me out.

Take a look at the sticky at the top on how to ask a question, yours was not a good example and will not get the answer you want. Try reading some of the articles, work through the samples[^] there are plenty out there.

So I have this XAML code:
<Window.Resources>
<local:MainViewModel x:Key="ViewModel" />
</Window.Resources>
And this is the XAML for the actual control:
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Width="897" Margin="5" DataContext="{StaticResource ViewModel}">
<ItemsControl Width="897" ItemsSource="{Binding Intersections}">
<ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<WrapPanel Width="897" >
<RadioButton GroupName="Intersections"
Content="{Binding Text}"
IsChecked="{Binding IsChecked, Mode=TwoWay}" Width="150"/>
</WrapPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
</ItemsControl>
</StackPanel>
In the code behind I have this public class:
Public Class MainViewModel
Sub New()
Intersections.Add(New Insertion() With {.Text = "Item 1"})
Intersections.Add(New Insertion() With {.Text = "Item 2", .IsChecked = True})
Intersections.Add(New Insertion() With {.Text = "Item 3"})
Intersections.Add(New Insertion() With {.Text = "Item 4"})
End Sub
Private _Intersections As New ObjectModel.ObservableCollection(Of Insertion)
Public Property Intersections() As ObjectModel.ObservableCollection(Of Insertion)
Get
Return _Intersections
End Get
Set(ByVal value As ObjectModel.ObservableCollection(Of Insertion))
_Intersections = value
End Set
End Property
Public Class Insertion
Private _Text As String
Public Property Text() As String
Get
Return _Text
End Get
Set(ByVal value As String)
_Text = value
End Set
End Property
Private _IsChecked As Boolean
Public Property IsChecked() As Boolean
Get
Return _IsChecked
End Get
Set(ByVal value As Boolean)
_IsChecked = value
End Set
End Property
End Class
End Class
The problem Im haveing is to get the RadioButtons to be shown Horizantaly, and I cant figure out how to do that. I have tried to set IsItemsHost="True" but Its giving me the error "A panel with IsItemsHost="true" is not nested in an ItemsControl. Panel must be nested in ItemsControl to get and show items.". Either I heave tried to do this in all the wrong places or Im missing some key information here.
To be clear the code works, but its giving me a stack of the RadioButtons, but I want the side by side like a WrapPanel.
The example is taken from here here[^], and I converted it to VB from C#.

Use ItemsPanelTemplate and put the radio buttons horizontally inside a stack panel.
E.g.
<ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation='Horizontal' "/>
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
|
|
|
|

I tried this:
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Width="897" Margin="5" DataContext="{StaticResource ViewModel}">
<ItemsControl Width="897" ItemsSource="{Binding Intersections}">
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<RadioButton GroupName="Intersections"
Content="{Binding Text}"
IsChecked="{Binding IsChecked, Mode=TwoWay}" Width="150"/>
</StackPanel>
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</ItemsControl>
</StackPanel>
But this time it wont build properly with ItemsPanelTemplate, I have seen this on the webbefore also, but couldnt get it to work, Can you?

I think (though Im not sure), one needs to put the <itempresenter> tag somewhere.
|
|
|

ITs working now, but its a strange code, and its well over a page long, so I dont think I'll be pasting it here, unless you are really interested

Ok Found the answer here[^] . The code that works looked like this:
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Width="897" Margin="5" DataContext="{StaticResource ViewModel}">
<ItemsControl Width="897" ItemsSource="{Binding Intersections}">
<ItemsControl.Template>
<ControlTemplate>
<WrapPanel Width="{TemplateBinding Width}" Height="{TemplateBinding Height}"
FlowDirection="LeftToRight" IsItemsHost="true">
</WrapPanel>
</ControlTemplate>
</ItemsControl.Template>
<ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<WrapPanel Width="120">
<RadioButton GroupName="Intersections" Content="{Binding Text}" IsChecked="{Binding IsChecked, Mode=TwoWay}" Width="150"/>
</WrapPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
</ItemsControl>
</StackPanel>

I have this combobox:
<ComboBox x:Name="cboServerList"
Grid.Row="0"
Grid.Column="1"
Margin="5"
Height="23"
IsEditable="True"
ItemsSource="{Binding Servers}"
SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedServer}"
TextSearch.TextPath="ServerName"
Text="{Binding ServerName}">
<ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding ServerName}"/>
</DataTemplate>
</ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
</ComboBox>
Since it's editable, as soon as I start typing the SelectedServer property's setter fires. How can I set it up so that it doesn't fire until the user presses Enter or tabs out?
Thanks

Set the UpdateSourceTrigger of the binding to LostFocus. That won't handle the enter key though. Which is probably ok since the enter key has a different meaning. Dunno why you'd want to do this though. Sounds like an issue with your VM setter being too expensive??

Why would you want the property's get to fire on each keystroke?

Who cares if you update a string 50 times? What do you think happens with WPF controls? If you scroll down a combo box, you'll get a bunch of updates for each item too.
If you are binding to expensive setters, your design is wrong. In your example, it is perfectly fine to update a string property 50 times, but if that is also triggering 50 database updates, then thats an improper design.
You are trying to solve the wrong problem here I think .

I care. This is a search field. I don't want the search running after every keystroke. Of course it's bound to a property. How else would you do it?

This is exactly what I'm trying to avoid. That's why I don't want the setter to execute until the user presses enter. That's a pretty normal requirement.

Ok... I'm confused. There are two ways to do search:
1) a real-time live search (i.e. Google, Internet Explorer, etc)
2) only do the search when the user clicks the OK / search button
For #1, you would do it on every key stroke.
For #2, it depends on how your UI is laid out. Do you have a pop up dialog with an OK button? Or is it something like where you have an edit box in the main window frame?
Irregardless of how you are implementing #2 UI wise, I think you are confusing your property setter with your action trigger. Those should be separate. The "public string SearchText" property should not kick off a search. Since all you should be doing in it is updating the property, its fine to update it 50 times. Then your enter key / ok / search button will send a command to the VM to kick off the search.
The button sending the command portion I'm assuming you already know how to do, for trapping the enter key, all you need to do is use your EventToCommand mapper to map the KeyDown event of the edit box to an ICommand and forward along the eventArgs. In your command handler function, you would simply check if the key pressed was the enter key. All nice and MVVM'y .

Ok, well that's just your opinion. I can point out mroe than a few UI designs where search happens when the user types, and also where nothing happens until you press enter. Open up Windows Explorer and type something into the search field. Nothing happens until you press enter. There's no button, becuase it's an extra step. Type, then reach for the mouse. Bad design IMHO. For heads down work, press enter to confim/trigger and action.
At any rate, I'll set the UpdateSourceTrigger of the binding to LostFocus.

Lol... you just described #1 and #2. #2 is trigger based, I thought it was implied that the trigger could be ANYTHING whether it be a button, the enter key, or you stepping on your cats tail. Silly me.
At any rate, I'll let others help you from now on, as you are kind of rude to people who help you for free on thier own time  .

I have previous experience using WinForms and the DataGridView control. I am trying to re-code a previous program using WPF that reads a parts list from a delimited text file and displays results in a DataGrid control.
In WinForms, I was able to assign a tag to the DataGrid row that I used to link individual URLs to our company's HTML-based inventory program. However, I am unsure how to do this (if it's even possible) in WPF. Currently, I read from the text file and load its contents into a List. From there, I filter the List by whatever the user selects, then display the results in a DataGrid control. I want to open up the browser when the user selects a row, but can't figure out how to bind the URL to the row. Is this possible? If so, can someone help point me in the right direction?
Thanks.

As long as you use data binding to bind your data to the grid, you really don't have much of a problem. Each row will be bound to the original item in the list, so it's simply a matter of reading from your SelectedItem, which will return the real item you are bound to.

Hi Pete,
Thanks for the response! I am not sure what you are suggesting. I am binding the data from the List into separate columns in my DataGrid. But instead of returning the information in the DataGrid, I want to open a browser window and go to the URL.
It's hard to explain without pictures, but I have a DataGrid with 6 columns. Under column 1, I list a description, with a hyperlink look. I bind the description of the part to that column. When the user clicks on that row, that's when I want to open the browser window. I thought about just using a DataGridHypertextColumn, but every example I could find online used an absolute address (http://exampleaddress.com). I will need to read the address from a textfile database. I suppose I could add another column and bind the URL to its own DataGrid column, but I am trying to avoid that.
Since I can't upload pictures, I have included the code.
private List<addData> LoadCollectionData()
{
List<addData> readData = new List<addData>();
string searchLine = (machineComboBox.SelectedValue.ToString()).ToUpper();
string findLine = searchTextBox.Text.ToUpper();
foreach (string readLine in File.ReadAllLines(path))
{
if (readLine.Contains(searchLine) && readLine.Contains(findLine))
{
string[] myData = readLine.Split('|');
readData.Add(new addData()
{
description = myData[0],
ICN = myData[1],
RIN = myData[2],
indexCode = myData[3],
location = myData[4],
machine = myData[5]
});
webLink = myData[6];
}
}
return readData;
}
And here is the XML:
<DataGridTextColumn Header="Part Name" CanUserResize="True" Width="225" Binding="{Binding description}">
<DataGridTextColumn.ElementStyle>
<Style TargetType="TextBlock">
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="20"/>
<Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Black"/>
<Setter Property="TextElement.Foreground" Value="Blue"/>
<Setter Property="TextDecorations" Value="Underline"/>
<Setter Property="TextWrapping" Value="Wrap"/>
<Setter Property="HorizontalAlignment" Value="Stretch"/>
<Setter Property="Cursor" Value="Hand"/>
</Style>
</DataGridTextColumn.ElementStyle>
</DataGridTextColumn>
I apologize for being a little slow in understanding what you have explained so far, but I am very new to WPF and DataGrid seems much more complicated than it was in WinForms.
