Thanks Pete. That did it.
The Getter for the command fires, but the execute never does.
My code is pretty standard:
private ICommand _WindowActivatedCommand;
public ICommand WindowActivatedCommand
{
get
{
if (_WindowActivatedCommand == null)
_WindowActivatedCommand = new RelayCommand(p => windowActivated(), p => windowCanActivate());
return _WindowActivatedCommand;
}
}
private bool windowCanActivate()
{
return true;
}
private void windowActivated()
{
}
Neither windowCanActivate nor windowActivated ever fire. How do I know if the Event is calling the command?

How have you assigned your DataContext?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes.

I think you need to read my question again.

About the DC? Yes, I assigned it.
This window is working. It's just THIS piece that's not working.

I asked how have you assigned the DC, not have you assigned it? It's entirely possible that you have created it after the Activated event has fired.

|

|

oh oh, my bad. I'm sorry. I totally missed the word 'how'
I did it in the code behind after the InitializeComponent.

It's my fault - I just reread your post - the getter is being hit, so the DataContext has been hooked up.
In order to test your Activated event, bring another window to the front and then reselect your application. See if it fires then (it should).
|

|

You're right - it fired AFTER I re-activated it.
It just doesn't fire on startup, which is what I want.
[UPDATE]
According to this[^]
the Window is activated when "The window is first opened."
The Activate command fires AFTER I lose and regain focus, but not on first startup.
[UPDATE 2]
I replaced the command with the event subscription in the code begind and it DOES fire on startup, so for some reason the command isn't firing until later on.

FYI - Resolved this using the Loaded event.

Well, you could always look at using an EventAggregator.

Kind of a newbie question. In my XAML I have these 2 lines
<DataGridComboBoxColumn SelectedItemBinding="{Binding ExpenseCategory}" Header="Category" />
<DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding ExpenseCategory}" Header="Category"/>
The first one WILL NOT display the value but the second one will. I created the second line to test my sanity [and the binding].
In the viewmodel I've exposed a
List<string> that I had initially bound to the combobox column's ItemsSource. However, when the column failed to display any data I removed it to see if that made a difference. With the List bound to the ItemsSource there was no value for the bound ExpenseCategory property and nothing in the list of values. That XAML was simply:
<DataGridComboBoxColumn SelectedItemBinding="{Binding ExpenseCategory}" ItemsSource="{Binding ExpTypes}" Header="Category"/>
So...what am I missing here? Why won't the combobox column display my data?
|

FWIW - and I have no idea if this is even close to an optimal approach - I found this solution in an old article by Julie Lerman http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/gg983481.aspx[^]
<DataGridTemplateColumn Header="Category" >
<DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=ExpenseCategory}" />
</DataTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
<DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Grid FocusManager.FocusedElement="{Binding ElementName= taskCombo}" >
<ComboBox x:Name="taskCombo" SelectedItem ="{Binding Path=ExpenseCategory}"
IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem="False"
ItemsSource="{Binding ExpTypes, Source={StaticResource vm}}"/>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn>
In her article she explains that the Grid FocusManager is used to manage the events when a new row is created and the user's first click is in the combobox.
This approach seems to work OK, but it is far from straightforward and I hope that somebody here has a better solution that would allow the DataGridComboboxColumn to work for me.

How about combining the two approaches? Since you've already managed to get the viewmodel into a static resource, something like this should work:
<DataGridComboBoxColumn
SelectedItemBinding="{Binding ExpenseCategory}"
ItemsSource="{Binding ExpTypes, Source={StaticResource vm}}"
Header="Category"
/>

Thanks for the reply. I've been crawling my way towards that solution by incrementally melding some of the elements of Julie Lerman's approach with a DataGridComboBoxColumn, just hadn't gotten all the way to the one you've suggested. However, I've just tried your code and it works. Much more concise.
Probably should have mentioned in the original question that I'd taken the [non-working] syntax directly from MSDN's latest example for combo box columns, and that had me flummoxed.

Could you help me ?
Thanks a lot.

Hello everyone.
I need to have a RichTextBox like input control to use in an application like MS Word. But the challenge is to input text diagonally. Currently I used a RichTextBox and a TextEffect for Runs in Document property of the RichTextBox to show text diagonally and it works. Unfortunately the cursor appears in its original position and direction so the user will be confused what he edit and where he type. Can you help me?
|
|
|
|
|
TextEffect just affects the text. If you apply a RotateTransform to the control, you'll rotate the entire control (including the caret).
|
|
|
|
|
Thank you SledgeHammer01. That's right, but I want to have diagonal lines not diagonal textbox.
|
|
|
|
|
You said you wanted a diagonal textbox. Diagonal input & Diagonal caret???
|
|
|
|
|
I need a portrait style RichTextBox but with diagonal lines (input and display)
|
|
|
|
|
Then you need to put the RichTextBox inside of another border and remove the border from the RichTextBox itself. Then apply the RotateTransform to just the inner RichTextBox. Will give the illusion of a horizontal RichTextBox with diagonal text.
You might also be able to modify the control template of the RichTextControl itself so you don't need the 2nd border.

I am using this[^] theme.
In the XAML when I use mouse to select some text everything highlights fine. But when I click an element in the design I do not see it highlighted in the XAML. I've searched this in the options but I can't find it.
Anyone know how to change this?
Thanks
