The silverlight toolkit has a date control and an experimental global calendar control.
The toolkit is open source so you can play around with the source code for these controls.

I know it buddy.
But I want something that is ready made. I have no time to play
on built in controls.
So if anybody has any idea on it then post reply.

I've a dataGrid in my XAML file. I need to display two separate context-menus on right-click on Rows and Header. Having same context-menu on both is easy, but how to have different ones? Will someone please provide a bit of code?
|
|
|
|
|
I think, I've got the answer.
<!--ContextMenu Definition-->
<ContextMenu x:Key="cm_rowMenu">
<!--ContextMenu For Row-->
</ContextMenu>
<ContextMenu x:Key="cm_columnHeaderMenu">
<!--ContextMenu For Header-->
</ContextMenu>
<!--ContextMenu Definition Ends-->
<!--Default Header Style-->
<Style x:Key="DefaultColumnHeaderStyle" TargetType="{x:Type Custom:DataGridColumnHeader}">
<Setter Property="ContextMenu" Value="{StaticResource cm_columnHeaderMenu}" />
</Style>
<!--Default Row Style-->
<Style x:Key="DefaultRowStyle" TargetType="{x:Type Custom:DataGridRow}">
<Setter Property="ContextMenu" Value="{StaticResource cm_rowMenu}" />
</Style>
<!--Setting styles for DataGrid-->
<Custom:DataGrid
RowStyle="{StaticResource DefaultRowStyle}"
ColumnHeaderStyle="{StaticResource DefaultColumnHeaderStyle}"/>

Yup - that looks like it should do it.

Hello, i am very new to WPF and so far i like it more than WinForms.
Currently i have a template for ListViewItems. And i want to change the selected style. When i select an item, i see blue background.
Can anyone tell me where shoud i look into?
|

In WPF, the selected item background colour is determined by System.HighlightBrush. This means that you can define a brush for the style and use SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey to set this. Here's a sample:
<Style TargetType='ListViewItem'>
<Style.Resources>
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey}" Color="Red" />
</Style.Resources>
</Style>

Wow, thank you. I didn't ever knew it was possible to override system colors

You are most welcome. Ain't WPF cool?

I am asking mysely: Why didn't i tried this before
Now i have a diffrent problem. I do not think it is alrigt to contiune new post, but here it is:
This is a stripped down event Template for a ListViewItem template
<DataTemplate x:Key="ListBoxItemPodjetjeTemplate">
<Grid Margin="2">
<Border Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" BorderThickness="0" Background="#8098D8D8" CornerRadius="4,4,4,4"/>
</Grid>
<DataTemplate.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="Control.IsMouseOver">
<Setter Property="Control.Background" Value="LightGreen"/>
</Trigger>
</DataTemplate.Triggers>
</DataTemplate>
I put Highlight color to transparent, now i want to change background of an item based on mouse over. Now the trigger is throwing me an exception with an inner text: {"'{DependencyProperty.UnsetValue}' is not a valid value for property 'IsMouseOver'."}.
Thank you in advance

|

What value are you applying? You haven't actually set one in the Trigger. Try changing it to
<Trigger Property="Control.IsMouseOver" Value="True" />

Aw stupid me. Thank you for your reply

No problems - it's easy to miss something like this. As a hint, if you ever see a message about DependencyProperty.UnsetValue then it means the value the DP expects hasn't been set. This isn't the same as a null value because null might be a legitimate value for the DP.

I'm trying to learn WPF doing some simple stuff before tackling a real project. The first thing I've tried to do is to mock up an Excel sheet used to review case files. It uses 40 some columns to collect reviewers' input. At least 5 columns use the same Excel data validation to limit the responses to:
Yes,
No, or
Unknown
So..in porting this to SQL Server I've put check constraints in that require one of those 3 entries.
In mocking up the data entry form in WPF I would like to use a combobox that IS BOUND to one of those SQL columns and offers the 3 permissible choices. It seems to me that the ideal approach would be to create a template combobox with the 3 choices, and then use and re-use the template for each of the constrained columns.
Maybe my searching skills are poor, but I can't seem to find any explanations or examples of doing something like this, even though it seems as though this sort of thing would be used often.
Where do I start?

|

Normally, I'd approach this by using MVVM to bind to the items using a user control which contains the combo box, and the VM would contain the values (along with the validation). It's fairly straightforward, so I'd suggest that you have a read up on MVVM (that's Model View ViewModel).

Pete -
Thanks for the response. I have been reading up on MVVM, but my 'programming' background has mostly been Excel VBA and some basic/rudimentary WinForm apps. It's a big step to grasp the concepts behind MVVM.

It is - but once you get it, it makes tasks like this so much simpler.

Hello,
I am trying to build a WPF application using blend 3. I need to display HTML contents in a portion of my application window. I tried to use 'web browser' control for the purpose, it renders the HTML as desired. But the problem is when I apply a simple animation (change width) for the 'Web browser' control, using story board, the animation doesn’t take effect. I tried to play the story board at design time, animation is played as desired.
Can you please tell me how can I create animation for ‘Web browser’ and if it is possible please specify a sample? Are there any alternatives? Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Hassan

What kind of animations are you trying to apply to the control?
Post some code here - someone might have a suggestion or two.

I want to create an image programatically, but I haven't been able to find a way to do it. I want to create a bitmap, render some text onto it, rotate it and then use the bitmap in a Image control.
EDIT===============
My current thought is to have the server side create the image and pas it back to me, but man, what a pain in the ass...

If your image is an icon or a shape, you could actually use a path object. In thiw way, you dont need to actually use a bitmap or a jpeg.
These paths can be creted using Expression blend.

It's not a path. I want to create a transparent rectangle, render text on it, and then rotate it. The reason for that is I need a better appearance than what Silverlight can produce if I programatically add rotated content.

Do you have to do it in the client? If you can do it on the server, I'd just create a memory device context, and draw on that one.

That would be preferred, but it looks like it's impossible.

Yeah, I mentioned that in my edit. At this point, I have to decide whether I want to do it in our web service, or create an aspx page that does it in the code behind.
