Hello, we just got started with XAML and are still fighting with basic issues: Coming from CSS we'd like to define a generic button style with custom control template and then have a second style inherit everything from the first style using "basedon. This second style should then override properties such e.g. "foreground color" (which ...
This sounds like it should be simple. I have a Page declared in XAML in the normal way (i.e. with "Add new item...") and it has a custom property. I'd like to set that property in the XAML associated with the page. Trying to do this the same way that I'd set any other property doesn't work, for reasons I understand but don't know how to...
How do I make XamlReader.Load to just ignore unknown attributes and elements instead of throwing exceptions? It would be much more useful if it only ignored those. ...
I've got a WPF DataGrid and wish to apply a currency format to several of the columns. I can do this on a per-column basis using Binding={Binding FieldName, StringFormat={}{0:C}, but I'd prefer to define the currency format once - presumably in a <Style> resource - and just apply that resource to each column that needs formatting. Probl...

It seems like if I have the following in my UserControl's XAML, it requires myCommandHandler and canExecuteMyCommand to be in my UserControl class: <CommandBinding Command=...
I've created a custom assembly that has some ValidationRules for regular expressions and required fields. As soon as I start using them in XAML, Visual Studio Designer throws the following error. System.Reflection.Adds.UnresolvedAssemblyException Type universe cannot resolve assembly: Validation, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, Public...
I am using Microsoft's XAML/HTML converter to convert HTML from a database into a XAML string. The Microsoft converter seems to be formatting the text correctly, but I'm having trouble binding the output to a XAML object. For example, using the following HTML: <span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: Georgia; color: rgb(0, 96, 144...
I'm trying to create a Table inside a FlowDocument inside a FlowDocumentPageViewer, as seen in this tutorial. I've never created a table in WPF before, and I was expecting there to be an ItemsSourceproperty to which I could bind, like with a ListBox. I want to customize the template for each row, and I want each row's source to be an i...

Hi all, I guess I'm a bit stuck on the mechanism of WPF DataBinding. Up to now I've thought of it as this : Any target of a DataBinding has to be a DependencyProperty.Keeping that in mind, I designed a very simple button-based UserControl like the following (boiled down to the most necessary parts): XAML <Button x:Class="MyNamespace.I...
