I have a question related to this one: I'm trying to attach an event to my StackPanel but it doesn't appear to connect when using the XamlReader. I can't get the ChildItem_Load method to get called.

Ok, I have a Grid which 'auto sizes' to a web browser. In there I have a canvas with shapes drawn onto it. What I want is for the canvas to 'stretch' to fill the page.

I have a small WPF application that I am working on localizing. I have read thru a number of documents but I have not found a good source of information about dealing with 'rich' content - for example: I have a ui element (TextBlock) that contains a mix of text with formatting, inline images and symbols. I want to localize this element....

When the I open the expander the ListBox just expands off the screen (rather than expanding to fill what is available and then scrolling) Here is my XAML: <DockPanel Margin="266.25,0,455,12" Name="dockPanel1"> <StackPanel> <Expander Header="expander1" Name="expander1" Wi...

I would like to enable alt-key shortcuts for this window (hold down the alt key to show underlined letters in the TextBlock titles, type one of those letters and focus should change to the corresponding TextBox). I've found out how to do ...
I have created something like this and this. In effect I have a dll which supplies me with a "styler" for my application - it contains all my basic styles as well as a factory to call StylerFactory.DefaultStyler.ApplyStyles(this) on an Application - which merges the supplied ResourceDictionaries with the existing. This way I don't need a...

The WPF app needs to inject Silverlight xaml in to the Silverlight wireframe dyn...

I can't for the life of me figure out why this doesn't work. I've got a simplified piece of Xaml that looks like this: <UserControl x:Class="Foo.MainPage" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" xmlns:d="http://sc...
As I understand it, a Panel isn't meant to have any visible "chrome." The StackPanel, Grid and Canvas don't have any visible elements (with the exception of the gridlines, which they say are only for debugging layout.) In my example, I am going to create a Custom Panel that uses Attached Properties to lay out its children controls. Ho...
