I would like to put my ScrollViewer in such a way that it overlaps/sits on top of the content it scrolls. I would set the Opacity of the ScrollViewer so that the content is visible underneath. As far as I understand the default ScrollViewer, this doesn't seem to be possible out of the box since the content is nested inside the ScrollVie...
Suppose that you are developing a custom control in WPF that contains internally some other basic controls. To keep it simple suppose that it contains 2 buttons. Now you want to use this custom control in your app, but you want to restyle it a bit. CASE 1 If, in the custom control definition, both buttons have the same style (wpf defa...

I've got CSS that formats labels above form input elements and I'd like to replace the input elements with text from the database if I'm just displaying read-only data. No matter what I do, changing the input fields to a span or asp:label will not properly render the label above the text. I'm using this CSS: div.formRow { padding: ...
Who thought that styling a list of links could be so troublesome! First issue I would like to use an arbitrary char as the bullet. I am sure now that this is impossible but maybe you know different? In any case I would like to control the distance between the bullet and the contents of the <li>. I would like to control the height of th...

When I create WPF applications, very quickly my XAML starts to bloat. I then approach the XAML/style issue in a HTML/CSS way, looking for repetitive code and packing it into styles which I put into my Window.Resources section. Is this the way others are doing it or is there some better way now in XAML? It just seems that the two blocks...
The skeleton of the HTML is this <div class="TwoCol"> <img src="imgurl"/> <h1>A headline</h1> <p>Some exciting text</p> <ul> <li>Item A</li> <li>Item B</li> <li>Item C</li> </ul> <p>More riveting text </p> </div> The CSS is .TwoCol img{ float:left; padding-right:5px; border:none; } .TwoCol ul{ list-style-type:none; } T...
What keeps a div from extending horizontally past the edge of the screen when there are horizontal scroll bars? The DIV's content will overflow out to the left but not the DIV itself. What can make the div go all the way to the right? Thanks ...

How much control do I have regarding the styling of a google map? Can I make it more closely resemble a site's colour scheme or are we stuck with pastels? ...
I'm trying to change the foreground text colour of a WPF tab item's header textblock using triggers. This works fine for most (simpler) scenarios but not when TextBlocks have been globally styled. So this simple "mouse over" trigger would work in terms of changing the foreground color: <Style x:Key="testTabItemStyle1" TargetType="{x:Ty...
I have a menu list. I'm not using UL/LI, just nested DIV's. There are graphic separators between the menu items. The first item in the list needs to suppress the left padding; the last item needs to suppress the right padding and the graphic separator. Here's the CSS: .platformItem { float: left; padding: 0 12px; background: u...

I've gone through the selectors but am posting this in case I missed something or there is a clever workaround. For example, say I have a table with classname "test" nested inside a div. Is t...

I am using WPF MVVM and would like a way to style the two levels differently, but have no idea how. I bind the treeview to an ObservableCollection in my ViewModel, and each element has one more ObservableCollection for the ne...
Hey guys I have an observable collection of items, where each item has a name and a "group name" (both strings). The tricky part is, in XAML, I need to style this collection such that all items with the same group name are listed next to each other, and the group name is shown at the top. I have designed user controls for the layout o...
