Since XAML gets compiled, there should be no difference in execution of code like this. Winforms (code like): Form formPeter = new Form(); Textbox textbox = new Textbox(); Label l1 = new Label1(); Xaml does not get parsed at runtime, as I thought... :-) But what about rendering/execution of big forms with lot of controls? Which tech...
Hello, I am working on a graph in WPF, in each section there are thousands of points to draw. The performance for rendering this graph is horrible. Does anyone have any experience with a filter that will represent the graph with much fewer points - similar to the way a stock graph draws itself when its zoomed out. Thank you. ...
What's the easiest way to figure out if a window is opened modally or not? CLARIFIACTION: I open a window calling myWindow.ShowDialog(); I have a footer with an "OK" & "Cancel" button that I only want to show if the window is opened modally.

Please follow the link http://msdn.microsoft.com/hi-in/default.aspx and see the top right corner of the page. There you will find a "Microsoft.com" expander. When you move the mouse over it, it displays as a popup and grows. When you move your mouse off of it the window shrinks back. I want to mimic this effect in my WPF application us...
I'm really loving the WPF RichTextBox, and all of the out-of-the-box functionality it comes with... but printing is something that I'm having trouble with. I can print (from code) using a PrintDialog and passing in my RichTextBox as a Visual (or by using the "Document")... But my question is, is there a simple way to use the application...

I have a Price property, and a PriceVatInclusive property in my model. -When the Price changes, I want to see the Vat inclusive price to automatically be 'Price * 1.21'. -Vice versa, when...
I have a ListBox displaying some items, and in certain modes I "stamp" a kind of watermark across the top of it. I've done this with a Border containing a TextBlock with an Opacity of 0.5. All this works nicely. However, I still want the user to be able to click on the items in the ListBox but if I click on the "stamp" it obviously eats...
Is there any limitations to the WPF Document.Paragraph object when using the FlowDocument control? I have the FlowDocument turning blank when I add a Paragraph that is more than 450 lines to the Paragraph. I could not locate anything within the MSDN documentation regarding max. lengths etc. Any ideas why this would happen? ...
This seems to be an absurdly simple question but Google and SO searches yield nothing. How can I disable horizontal scrolling in a WPF listbox when items take up more horizontal space than is available in the box? ...

The application I'm trying to localize is a WinForms application that has a few hosted WPF user controls (WPF user controls hosted in an ElementHost WinForms control). I use resx files to localize the WinForms, which VS2008 manages quite well. The problem starts when I try to use the LocBaml method to localize the WPF parts. Here's wh...

The data template for the ListBox ItemTemplate is similar to this: <DataTemplate x:Key="MyTypeTemplate" DataType="{x:Type MyType}"> <Expander DataContex...
I would like to create a visual effect when an item in a listbox is double clicked. So far I have drag and drop functionality where the item is visually attached to the mouse and can be moved to a drop target. From that functionality I am able to animate the item using the same logic of getting the item container, however I am not able t...
I've been struggling with the GridSplitter. It seems to be incompatible with the WPF WebBrowser control. If I resize my window and move the GridSplitter, then I can make my grid wider than my window and non-viewable.
