Hi, For a developpeur who as to do a project with WPF or Silverlight (xaml code), is it trial to learn some design (basics) and to handle blend?

The grid is defined so: <Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <C...
I have created an image to use as a ruler. It has black lines and text on a transparent background and is in PNG format.

What might cause an image to be invisible w...

I know this is not a programming question per-se, but it's still related in a way. Anyway, I've had this problem for months now, and right now I decided to start searching on Google, but I can't find anything. It doesn't only hang for a few seconds, each time this happens, I have to restart visual studio. @John Saunders: Thanks for poin...
One of my biggest pet peeves with how databinding works with XAML is that there's no option to strongly type your databindings. In other words, in C#, if you want to access a property on an object that doesn't exist, you won't get any help from Intellisense, and if you insist on ignoring Intellisense, the compiler will gripe at you and ...

Friends, I have a WPF requirement... Just like we create the HTML page, someone said we can also create the XAML pages, call them into the form (on Windows Form). My idea is to create a dynamic form at run-time. This form should supports the XAML based controls rendering, events I searched a lot but I did not find anything ready. I my...
This question involves the Visual Studio (2008) WPF Designer's apparent inability to handle the usage of resources located at the App.xaml level if the App.xaml is in a separate assembly from the view. To simplify the explanation of the problem I have created a test application. This application has two assemblies: View and Start. The ...

How does the XAML Parser convert the string "Red" in Foreground="Red" to a SolidColorBrush? Allthough I know the Types have System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter defined, I doupt that the WPF XAML parser acutally always uses those to convert the string to the brush.
