In WPF/C# how would I rotate a "graphic" to face the current mouse position? Basically what I want is a "wheel" UI Control (like an analog volume dial). I want to be able to click and drag the dial and it will rotate to follow the mouse. Then when I release the mouse it will stop following (obviously!). How would I create one of these?...

Hi, I am new to WPF and I have a doubt in modifying a control. I came to know that one can modify a control by changing its Control Template. i.e., <Button> <Button.Template> <ControlTemplate> ... </ControlTemplate> </Button.Template> </Button> Also we can edit a control utilizing the Content Model. i.e., <Butto...

Main question: Is there a better way to accomplish creating a reusable control? So the idea was to make a paging control to basically stop from having to keep typing out practically the same markup on multiple views.

I am developing a new custom control in VisualStudio and wonder whether you can limit the property selection at design time. To illustrate the problem, there are two properties that rely on each other – orientation and textside. The control itself is rectangular and the orientation can be either vertical or horizontal.

In my opinion treeviews are overused, therefor I don't really care for them. Sometimes they're necessary but I can imaging that one could always find a good alternative to the standard treeview. What are some other innovative ways to display hierarchical information that convey the same information without the drab of a treeview? Which ...
