I have a ListBox with Foo objects, and based on some events I disable/enable the ListBoxItems in the ListBox. Using the ListBox.Items property I find Foo objects, and from what I've understood I need to use the following function to get the ListBoxItem container for the Foo.

I have a collection ObservableCollection<Foo>, and I want to bind this to a property in a custom controller of type ObservableCollection<object>. However, the bound value never reaches the PropertyCallback, and is hence never set. Is there a clever way to achieve this binding? I could create an IValueConverter that converts from Observ...
I've got a Canvas and I put some stuff on it, then I scaled it. But, when you run the scales, they don't originate from the point they should, like, if you scale it from one origin a bit, then scale from another origin, the second origin acts as if it's been offset somewhat in a really strange fashion instead of behaving as intended (and...

The conversion works fine - I create an ObservableCollection<object> and fill it with all the Foo's from the original list. T...

So it seems to be something do with adorners, rather than...

I just came across Tim Anderson's latest blog entry about MS' future regarding HTML5, Silverlight, WPF, and wonder, where is this all going. My personal experience is that I have never seen a WPF application, got a project enquiry re WPF only once, and have no idea where SL is actually used. To avoid the risk of having this question cl...

Below the treeview is a ListBox containing TextBoxes for editing the name, the value of the element and all its attributes. I have figured out how to display the XML data in the treeview. But I don...
I have created a UserControl with two dependency properties: Value and Color. The Color of the UserControl is dependent on the Value property.
