I have a problem, and I have not found the solution yet. I woud like to create a base custom control and use it in another custom control. The base control works fine when I use it in a window, but when I use it in the other custom control, the binding does not work. What's wrong with my code? Code: Model: public class ElementModel {...
I have a window with tabs. On one of the tabs, I have a layout like below. (In fact it is more complicated, I have 4 text boxes in a row, and I have more rows.) How can I make the 3rd textbox have the width of the label + the width of the text box above, that is, to have them properly aligned ? The problem is that WPF widens the 3rd text...
My question is in my title. I am trying to develop a logic so that I can scale fixed aspect ratio windows to cover most of the screen without overlapping eachother. There could be two three or four windows. There could be an alignment parameter also. ...
I'm looking for an article or overview of WPF Panel types, that explains the sizing characters of each. For example, here are the panel types: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms754152.aspx#Panels_derived_elements I've learned (by experiment) that UniformGrid can be given a fixed height, or it can be "auto" where it expands to ...
Hello, I would like to prevent an Expander from expanding/collapsing when users click inside the header area. This is basically the same question as Q 1396153, but I'd appreciate a more favorable answer :) Is there a non-invasive way to do this? I am not sure exactly how to attach behavior to the Expander.Header content to prevent mous...

Here's an example of what I'm trying to accomplish: <Window x:Class="CheckBoxBinding.MainWindow" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525"> <StackPanel> <CheckBox Name="myCheckBox">this</CheckBox> ...
In a simple form, I bind to a number of different objects -- some go in listboxes; some in textblocks. A couple of these objects have collaborating objects upon which the ToString() method calls when doing its work -- typically a formatter of some kind. When I step through the code I see that when the databinding is being set up, To...
Hi guys, I have a custom WPF Canvas, upon which I would like to show a grid. I do so by overriding the OnRender method on Canvas, and using the DrawingContext drawing functions. IsGridVisible, GridWidth, GridHeight are the number of pixels between each grid line horizontally and vertically respectively. I also use a ScaleTransform on t...

Here is a really tricky scenario I have been confronted with. I have a static helper class that contains some dependency properties used as binding sources. My main Window binds to these properties to determine some visual aspects. Recently we have added the ability to measure the progress of long-running operations with a progress bar w...
I found an example online that explains how to perform databinding to a ListBox control using LINQ in WPF. The example works fine but when I replicate the same code in Silverlight it doesn't work. Is there a fundamental difference between Silverlight and WPF that I'm not aware of? Here is an Example of the XAML: <ListBox x:Name="list...
I'm looking to learn WPF, and I'd like to get a book to help in the process. Most of the popular questions on SO regarding actual books are from 2008, and I wanted to see if recommendations for books had changed at all. WPF Unleashed, which seems to be the most popular recommendation, was published in 2006, which is quite a while ago, w...
This started with weird behaviour that I thought was tied to my implementation of ToString(), and I asked this question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2916068/why-wont-wpf-databindings-show-text-when-tostring-has-a-collaborating-object It turns out to have nothing to do with collaborators and is reproducible. When I bind Label.Con...
