I'm building an application using the MVVM design pattern and I want to make use of the RoutedUICommands defined in the ApplicationCommands class. Since the CommandBindings property of a View (read UserControl) isn't a DependencyProperty we can't bind CommandBindings defined in a ViewModel to the View directly. I solved this by defining ...

The gist of my plight is this: I have a Viewport3D that displays a handful of raw files & folders. Basically, it's like every other 3d explorer replacement you've ever seen :) W...

I know it is easy to do in XAML by binding the Visual of a VisualBrush to the element, but can's seem to do this from code. Can anyone help ...

If the user wants to cancel the changes that they made to the textbox, what is the best way to undo the changes to the bound field on the object?

I have a WPF custom control that sometimes takes a while to render in some complex scenarios. I would like to be able to tell my custom control to show a placeholder image (e.g. "Please wait - rendering!") and then actually render the control in idle time (after input is processed). I am thinking along the lines of having my custom cont...
I usually call myControl.Focus() in the Loaded event handler, but this doesn't seem to work for a ListBox which is databound to a list of custom objects. When I start my application, the ListBox's first item is selected but the focus is elsewhere. I thought this could be because the focus is being set before the databound items are load...
