I found Mole, which looks like exactly the thing I need, but alas there is no VS 2010 support. I'm not sure if the project is being maintained either. Are there other tools for live debugging/inspecting of a XAML control tree? I'm looking for something like firebug for XAML... ...
The heart of the question in this post is whether you can expect all DPs to be set by the time a Property callback for one of them is set. I ask this because this is not the behavior I am seeing. A class has two DP's, both of which are set in XAML, like so: <!-- Days of the Week --> <local:DayOfTheWeekColumn DowIndex="0" Acti...

So I've gotten in the habit of using WPF/C# value converters because they are awesome. I usually just have a folder set up for value converters and then access them in whatever xaml files I might need them. I'm currently developing a user control that will have some value converters that I do not want other classes to be able to access....

I want a user to select some items via the extra checkbox column (datagridtemplatecolumn in fact). Then he presses the button and only selected items are processed by some f...

I desperately need synchronous / blocking Animations in C# / WPF (executing code in the completed event is unfortunately not enough in my case). I tried two ways: 1) Start the (asynchronous) animation using BeginAnimation with a Duration of x. Add Thread.Sleep(x) after the asynchronous call. However this doesn't work, the Animation is...

Folks, I am writing a small WPF Windows App which has a listbox bound to Task type objects. I need to be able to search and narrow down the list of Tasks by TaskName. Narrowing down the selection isn't the problem, but bolding the matching characters you typed to narrow down the selection is. For an example if I got tasks "Party" and "P...

Twitter's new UserStream function is awesome, but has one major downside - the noise gets noisier. With updates coming in realtime, often it is hard to read a tweet before the framework scrolls down the tweet out of sight. Ideally, I'd like to pause/stop automagic scrolling if the Listbox focus isn't at the very top, even if it resulted...
