How to add easily a cell padding for a Grid in Silverlight? To set Margins for each cell looks very noisy. <Grid.RowDefinitions> <RowDefinition Height="Auto" /> <RowDefinition Height="Auto" /> </Grid.RowDefinitions> <Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" /> <ColumnDefinition Width="*" /> </Grid.ColumnDefiniti...
I am using a PagedCollectionView in Silverlight 3 to group items in a datagrid. I want to detect when the group headers are clicked but after 6 hours still cannot find any way to do this. (So that when a collapsed header is clicked I can dynamically load the group's content) The datagrid is populated like so: PagedCollectionView coll...
Assuming the following view model definition: public class MyObject { public string Name { get; set; } } public interface IMyViewModel { ICommand MyCommand { get; } IList<MyObject> MyList { get; } } And a UserControl with the following code behind: public class MyView : UserControl { public IMyViewModel Model { get; } } If my...
I have a bound DataGrid and various other controls(external to the datagrid) that show more details about the selectedrow in the datagrid. This is easy to do with databinding or handling the SelectionChanged event on the datagrid. However, how do I do this without requiring the user to select a row - eg on 'mouseover' can I change the s...

When creating a custom column design for a Silverlight DataGrid, is there any way to bind or make use of the DataGrid's SelectedItem property? I wish to display a static element, but have it only visible for the row that is selected. A simple example of what I'm after: <data:DataGrid> <data:DataGrid.Columns> ... ...
I have two listboxes that I am dragging one item from to the other. Using the November 2009 build of the Silverlight 3 Toolkit's ListBoxDragDropTarget. I have an EventHandler on the Drop event of the second listbox. I am trying to get the index of the item that is being inserted so I can see what comes before it in the item collection. D...

I have a User Control that I need to programmatically add to a Silverlight Grid t a specified Row and Column index. The requirements are such that I will need to insert at arbitrary indices, such that pure databinding is perhaps not ideal. I would prefer not to have to create the grid from scratch in the code behind. Can this be done? ...
I am looking to create a Silverlight application that employs a control style similar to what one might see when using Balsamiq Mockups or SketchFlow. I am not sure how this look is best achieved in Silverlight. My initial thought is that clever use of a pixel shader effect on the desired control might just do the trick, however, my ...

Hi all xaml-geeks ;) I've just been fooling around with a ListBox control that I want to style a certain way. For now it looks just like I want it to with rounded corners and no padding. However, the rounded corners seems to cause a problem with the items in the ListBox. A screenshot so you can see what I mean: The thing is, that th...
I have a Silverlight web app solution with a Silverlight-enabled WCF service included. Everything has worked fine for the past 6 months or so. I can access data through the service with no problem. I came into work today, opened up the solution, ran it again, and suddenly, there's a mismatch between the WCF service port and the port t...
Please bear with me Silverlight Designer Gurus, this is compicated (to me). I'm creating a custom control which derives form the Silverlight 3.0 ListBox. In an effort not to show tons of code (initially), let me describe the setup. I have a class library containing a class for my control logic. Then I have a Themes/generic.xaml t...

Thanks, Mark UPDATE: This is still an issue for me. My SelectedItem property already implements change notification, but the datagrid is not VISUALLY displaying which row has been selec...
I'm using the Silverlight 3 HyperlinkButton and I want to programmatically trigger the navigation that normally occurs when the button is clicked. There does not appear to be a public method that supports this. The OnClick method is protected so I could inherit from this control to gain access to this method from a custom control but is...
