Here's an example: XAML: <Window x:Class="MenuTest.Window1" xmlns=...
I have these container objects (let's call them Container) in a list. Each of these Container objects in turn has a DataItem (or a derivate) in a list.

when I press the Maximize button on my WPF app, all the controls therein expand perfectly horizontally, but they do not expand to fill the window vertically.

I've just started developing a WPF application. This is not my first WPF app, but it will be the first that needs some polish. I know quite a bit about the "plumbing" of WPF such as binding, etc., but very little about how to polish it up. I don't need a snazzy UI. I just need something that looks like a native Windows app. For instance,...

This works fine but takes a bit of time to load. As the dll function constructs the object it prints progress info to the console. I want to redirect this into a TextBlock so th...
Hi, I am big into code generation for the service/data layer of my apps. What I would really love to do is generate some basic WPF Controls, Data Templates, or some other XAML code based on the metadata I use to generate my service/data layer.

I have an ItemsControl that is data bound to a list of decimals. I need to add one extra control to the ItemsControl (an option to specify the number manually). Is there a way to do this in XAML?
