I'm learning Caliburn for a WPF project I am involved in and we are having a hard time finding good tutorials for it. I have looked through the Caliburn Wiki, and the samples that come with the download, but either the tutorials are lacking, or I am. =D I cannot view solution folders in VS Express so maybe I am missing some valuable s...

I create an instance of this ItemTemplate via .LoadContent(), assign the .DataContext and put it an ContentControl. The only drawback I have is that DataTemplate.Triggers are not fired.

More specifically, I tried having a grid of 48 rows, 40 units high, contained in a scroll viewer... each row was to contain a progress bar, but for whatever reason, this really REALLY slowed down my user interface, so I've scrapped it. My questions are as follows: Why would the progress bar cause such extreme slowdown, especially while ...

The Maps should be displayed on my Window and when I hover each country on the map, it should change color. I managed to do this partially by exporting an svg map to xaml and including this xaml in a cust...

The Backgound worker method throws an InvalidOperationException as well - The calling threa...
