I could pass a String as a property, but how do I pass another control as a p...

In a layered design: View - Interface Controller (ViewModel) - Model - Persistance is it possible to design the Interfa...

When I click on the cell I want the square to rotate smoothly through 180 degrees. The specific issue I have at the moment is; as the rectangle rotates, it won't change its ...

I'm having a problem where my main application window keeps the focus after a non-modal window is initiated from it. It seems at first glance that it might be the hollow windows issue with WPF (we use transparent backgrounds), but the window doesn't even have focus at all (this.IsFocused STAYS false). As soon as you click on the window...
