Hi, I am working in WPF, using a Media Element and a WPF TeeChart (by Steema). Both of these are visible and updating at the same time - whilst the video is playing, the graph will update at regular intervals to show data relevant to the current location in the video. The problem is that the TeeChart takes a long time to update, which ...

Hi! I'm writing my own UserControl which displays data in a ListBox. I want to achieve something similar to a property like "DisplayMemberPath". In my example, it's "EditableMemberPath", which should determine which member will be displayed in the textbox. However, using a binding on a binding does not work. <ListBox ItemsSource="{Bind...

So here is my dilemma, I want to handle view events on my view model, trouble is, in order to add an event handler, my view has to have a code behind file and therefore a class attribute has to be set. I'm 99% sure this is a bad idea, and to be perfectly honest, i'm not even sure how to do it (other than the obvious x:Class="" part) Wh...
Whenever I attach a DataTemplate to a MenuItem, each generated menu item gets an extra space on the left side. This extra space looks as wide as the space reserved for the check, which I use. Building a menu manually without a DataTemplate doesn't add this extra space. As an extra wrinkle, if I click on this extra space the menu item goe...
I'm familiar with the control's dispatcher object but that doesn't solve my issue in an MVVM scenario. I've got a UI command, that calls a method on my VM, that spawns a thread and then returns, when the thread is done (background worker might be good for this?) it will raise a callback, but the trick is, that callback modifies an obser...

I have noticed (on my Vista 64bit machine) that a video being shown in a WPF MediaElement has different colors than when being played in Windows Media Player.
