Check the Visual Studio output window, and you'll probably find a load of binding errors telling you that the property Piece doesn't exist in the data context of the parent window.
Update the user control so that it points to itself for the DataContext:
public BoardSquare()
{
InitializeComponent();
DataContext = this;
}
Or:
<UserControl x:Class="Chess.UI.WPF.Controls.BoardSquare"
...
DataContext="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}}"

Hello!
I am trying to make a Contact Book, where i can have my contacts and conversations(+other activities related to them) in C# WPF.I am also trying to learn MVVM with this.
I have 2 listboxes each bound to an observable collection populated from a database using LinqToSQL.
Listbox 1(ContactsLstBx) is displaying a list of contact names, and in Listbox 2(ConversationLstBx), i want to display the conversations i had with the selected contact in Listbox 1.
The problem i have is that(besides being a "noob") the SelectedContact property, does not update after i set it in MainViewModel constructor. If i set it manually it displays the conversation list correctly based on the ContactId.
What i am trying to achieve is: when the program starts, the only listbox loaded is the ContactsLstBxd after i select a contact, to get the SelectedContact, and load the other listbox.
Should i use a SelectionChanged event? Can i load the conversation listbox if i add a call to PopulateConversationList() in my SelectedContact setter?
Any help/advice is greatly apreciated.
Thanks!
C#:
public class MainViewModel : ViewModelBase
{
private Contact selectedContact;
public ObservableCollection<Contact> ContactList;
public ObservableCollection<Conversation> ConversationList;
public MainViewModel()
{
ContactList = new ObservableCollection<Contact>(cbdc.Contacts);
SelectedContact = ContactList.FirstOrDefault();
PopulateConversationList();
}
public Contact SelectedContact
{
get { return selectedContact; }
set
{
if (selectedContact == value)
return;
selectedContact = value;
RaisePropertyChanged("SelectedContact");
}
}
public void PopulateConversationList()
{
if (selectedContact != null)
{
var conversations = from c in cbdc.Conversations
where c.ContactID == SelectedContact.Id
select c;
ConversationList = new ObservableCollection<Conversation>(conversations);
}
}
public class ViewModelBase: INotifyPropertyChanged
{
public ContactLinqToSQLClassesDataContext cbdc = new ContactLinqToSQLClassesDataContext();
#region INotifyPropertyChanged
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
internal void RaisePropertyChanged(string propertyName)
{
if (PropertyChanged != null)
{
PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
}
}
#endregion
}
XAML:
<ListBox x:Name="ContactsLstBx" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="289" Margin="10,50,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="115" ItemsSource="{Binding ContactList}" SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedContact, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}">
<ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Name}" />
</DataTemplate>

You're replacing the entire conversation list, so you need to make it a property, and call RaisePropertyChanged when you replace it.
You'll also need to call PopulateConversationList when the selected contact changes.
You can simplify the calls to RaisePropertyChanged by using the CallerMemberName attribute[^] on the parameter. You should also store the event handler delegate in a local variable before testing and calling it, since other threads might modify it between the null test and the invocation.
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
protected void RaisePropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] string propertyName = null)
{
var handler = PropertyChanged;
if (handler != null) handler(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
}
public class MainViewModel : ViewModelBase
{
private Contact selectedContact;
private ObservableCollection<Contact> contactList;
private ObservableCollection<Conversation> conversationList;
public MainViewModel()
{
contactList = new ObservableCollection<Contact>(cbdc.Contacts);
SelectedContact = contactList.FirstOrDefault();
}
public ObservableCollection<Contact> ContactList
{
get { return contactList; }
}
public Contact SelectedContact
{
get
{
return selectedContact;
}
set
{
if (selectedContact != value)
{
selectedContact = value;
RaisePropertyChanged();
PopulateConversationList();
}
}
}
public ObservableCollection<Conversation> ConversationList
{
get
{
return conversationList;
}
private set
{
if (conversationList != value)
{
conversationList = value;
RaisePropertyChanged();
}
}
}
private void PopulateConversationList()
{
if (selectedContact == null)
{
ConversationList = null;
}
else
{
var conversations = from c in cbdc.Conversations
where c.ContactID == SelectedContact.Id
select c;
ConversationList = new ObservableCollection<Conversation>(conversations);
}
}
}

I have modified my code, but my SelectedContact still doesnt update.
The XAML code for the listbox bindings remains the same as in my first post.
What should i do next?
(sorry if its something obvious that i havent noticed)
public class MainViewModel : ViewModelBase
{
private Contact selectedContact;
private ObservableCollection<Contact> contactList;
private ObservableCollection<Conversation> conversationList;
public MainViewModel()
{
ContactList = new ObservableCollection<Contact>(cbdc.Contacts);
SelectedContact = ContactList.FirstOrDefault();
}
public ObservableCollection<Contact> ContactList
{
get
{
return contactList;
}
private set
{
if (contactList != value)
{
contactList = value;
RaisePropertyChanged();
}
}
}
public ObservableCollection<Conversation> ConversationList
{

}
}
}
public Contact SelectedContact
{

{
return selectedContact;
}
set
{
if (selectedContact != value)
{
selectedContact = value;
RaisePropertyChanged();
PopulateConversationList();
}
}
}
public void PopulateConversationList()
{

{
ConversationList = null;
}
else
{
var conversations = from c in cbdc.Conversations

}
}
}

#region INotifyPropertyChanged

{
var handler = PropertyChanged;
if (handler != null)
{
handler(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
}
}
#endregion
}
public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
MainViewModel cvm = new MainViewModel();
ContactsLstBx.ItemsSource = cvm.ContactList;
ConversationLstBx.ItemsSource = cvm.ConversationList;
}
}

ItemsSource binds to a collection. There is a default CollectionView generated that is what you are actually seeing. The CollectionView listens for a CollectionChanged event not a PropertyChanged event. Now, you may assume that ObservableCollection handles all this for you, and generally it does. But you are not performing any actions that are monitorable by this class (Add, Move, Remove, Replace, Reset[^]) and instead are completely replacing the instance itself. Try this:
public void PopulateConversationList()
{
if (selectedContact == null)
{
ConversationList = null;
}
else
{
var conversations = from c in cbdc.Conversations
where c.ContactID == SelectedContact.Id
select c;
ConversationList.Clear();
foreach (Conversation c in conversations)
{
ConversationList.Add(c);
}
}
}
I highly recommend anyone learning WPF to read the MSDN Data Binding Overview[^] article. If you skip down to "Binding to Collections" you'll see relevant information for both your question and my answer 
Haven't had a chance to actually run the code but this definitely seems like the issue since I've run into the same problem before.

I have modified the PopulateConversationList() method, and before
ConversationList.Clear();
i have added
if (ConversationList == null)
{
ConversationList = new ObservableCollection<Conversation>();
}
because i was getting a NullRefferenceException.
The code works as before(SelectedContact doesnt updates).
What else should i check?
public void PopulateConversationList()
{
if (selectedContact == null)
{
ConversationList = null;
}
else
{
var conversations = from c in cbdc.Conversations
where c.ContactID == SelectedContact.Id
select c;
if (ConversationList == null)
{
ConversationList = new ObservableCollection<Conversation>();
}
ConversationList.Clear();
foreach (Conversation c in conversations)
{
ConversationList.Add(c);
}
}

The whole point of my post was to remove the re-assignment. Unless you want to implement your own CollectionChanged event to cover the re-assignment, the default CollectionView won't know the collection was modified. I forgot to change the null assignment in your if-statement. Also, you should instantiate in your constructor.
public MainViewModel()
{
ContactList = new ObservableCollection<Contact>(cbdc.Contacts);
ConversationList = new ObservableCollection<Conversation>();
SelectedContact = ContactList.FirstOrDefault();
PopulateConversationList();
}
public void PopulateConversationList()
{
if (selectedContact == null)
{
ConversationList.Clear();
}
else
{
var conversations = from c in cbdc.Conversations
where c.ContactID == SelectedContact.Id
select c;
ConversationList.Clear();
foreach (Conversation c in conversations)
{
ConversationList.Add(c);
}
}
If you really want to remake the collection each time you can but you will have to implement INotifyCollectionChanged to cover your re-assignment which is not as friendly as INotifyPropertyChanged. That's a lot of extra mess when you can simply re-use the collection like this.

Sorry, i dont want to remake the collection, but i am a little(maybe a little more) confused.
Should i check something else?
public class MainViewModel : ViewModelBase
{
private Contact selectedContact;
private ObservableCollection<Contact> contactList;
private ObservableCollection<Conversation> conversationList;
public MainViewModel()
{
ContactList = new ObservableCollection<Contact>(cbdc.Contacts);
ConversationList = new ObservableCollection<Conversation>();
SelectedContact = ContactList.FirstOrDefault();
PopulateConversationList();
}
public ObservableCollection<Contact> ContactList
{
get
{
return contactList;
}
private set
{
if (contactList != value)
{
contactList = value;
RaisePropertyChanged();
}
}
}
public Contact SelectedContact
{
get
{
return selectedContact;
}
set
{
if (selectedContact != value)
{
selectedContact = value;
RaisePropertyChanged();
PopulateConversationList();
}
}
}
public ObservableCollection<Conversation> ConversationList
{
get
{
return conversationList;
}
private set
{
if (conversationList != value)
{
conversationList = value;
RaisePropertyChanged();
}
}
}
public void PopulateConversationList()
{
if (selectedContact == null)
{
ConversationList.Clear();
}
else
{
var conversations = from c in cbdc.Conversations
where c.ContactID == SelectedContact.Id
select c;
ConversationList.Clear();
foreach (Conversation c in conversations)
{
ConversationList.Add(c);
}
}
}

So I mocked up a DB and used your code with some optimizations I explain in comments. Works for me. If you're still having an issue it might be a DB issue or some code that isn't posted. Here's the code I used:
MainWindow.xaml: Nothing important changed, just some formatting for my screen

ConversationList = new ObservableCollection<Conversation>();
SelectedContact = ContactList.FirstOrDefault();
}

{
ConversationList.Clear();
if (selectedContact != null)
{
var conversations = cbdc.GetConversations(selectedContact);
foreach (Conversation c in conversations)
ConversationList.Add(c);
}
}
}
ViewModelBase.cs Not really important, just me mocking up DB objects
public class ViewModelBase : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
protected MockDB cbdc;
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
public ViewModelBase()
{
cbdc = new MockDB();
}
protected void RaisePropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] string propertyName = null) =>

}
public class MockDB
{
private Dictionary<Contact, List<Conversation>> conversations;
public List<Contact> Contacts { get; private set; }
public MockDB()
{
Contacts = CreateContacts();
conversations = CreateConversations(Contacts);
}
public List<Conversation> GetConversations(Contact c) =>
conversations[c];
private List<Contact> CreateContacts()
{
return new List<Contact>()
{
new Contact("Jim"),
new Contact("Bob"),
new Contact("Mary")
};
}
private Dictionary<Contact, List<Conversation>> CreateConversations(List<Contact> contacts)
{
Dictionary<Contact, List<Conversation>> conversationMap = new Dictionary<Contact, List<Conversation>>();
foreach (Contact c in contacts)
conversationMap.Add(c, CreateConversationList(c));
return conversationMap;
}
private List<Conversation> CreateConversationList(Contact contact)
{
return new List<Conversation>()
{
new Conversation($"Hi {contact.Name}!"),
new Conversation("Pleasant day today.")
};
}
}
public class Contact
{
public string Name { get; private set; }
public Contact(string contactName)
{
Name = contactName;
}
}
public class Conversation
{
public string Title { get; private set; }
public Conversation(string conversationText)
{
Title = conversationText;
}
}
Hopefully this helps

Thank you very much, it works!
I wasnt setting the datacontext right(i was thinking that the datacontext generated by my LinqToSql classes was the only one i have to interact with).
Thank you again!

If C# 6.0 is available in your environment this is no longer necessary with the new null-conditional operator. Just an fyi
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
protected void RaisePropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] string propertyName = null)
{
PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));

I have a WPF application which consists of a main window containing a TabControl whose items are populated dynamically from the model. This is a simplified version:
<Window x:Class="WpfDemo.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:view="clr-namespace:WpfDemo.View"
xmlns:viewmodel="clr-namespace:WpfDemo.ViewModel"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525" Background="#DCE8F3">
<Grid>
<TabControl Grid.Row="0" x:Name="ViewTabControl" ItemsSource="{Binding ViewModels}" SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedTab, Mode=TwoWay}" IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem="True" Background="LightBlue" Margin="6">
<TabControl.Resources>
<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type viewmodel:ImageCaptureViewModel}">
<view:ImageCaptureView />
</DataTemplate>
<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type viewmodel:ProfileDesignerViewModel}">
<view:ProfileDesignerView/>
</DataTemplate>
</TabControl.Resources>
<TabControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}"/>
</DataTemplate>
</TabControl.ItemTemplate>
</TabControl>
</Grid>
</Window>
The view model class - MainWindowViewModel - has an observable collection called ViewModels:
private ObservableCollection<Object> _viewModels;
public ObservableCollection<Object> ViewModels
{
get
{
if (_viewModels == null)
{
_viewModels = new ObservableCollection<Object>();
}
return _viewModels;
}
}
The views are created thus:
public MainWindowViewModel()
{
_profileDesignerViewModel = new ViewModel.ProfileDesignerViewModel();
ViewModels.Add(_profileDesignerViewModel);
_imageCaptureViewModel = new ViewModel.ImageCaptureViewModel();
ViewModels.Add(_imageCaptureViewModel);
}
So far so good. Unfortunately this has a peculiarity. A view is instantiated each time the user selects the corresponding tab. The problem is that the old view is not disposed until the application shuts down.
Does anyone know how to ensure that the old view is disposed, or how to keep the old view and not create a new one? This is creating a serious memory problem for us.

The WPF TabControl is well known for not persisting views. Fortunately, there are many implementations that work around this - Sacha Barber has one such here[^]

Thanks. I tried that code (from a different web site) some months back for another project and it did not work. However, after reading your post I found the one below which works:
c# - Stop TabControl from recreating its children - Stack Overflow[^]
It is the exact same control class as per your link, but with the addition of a style in the XAML. I cannot as yet see why the syle makes the difference to the behaviour.
Thanks again, very helpful.

Good Day all
i am working on a Kinect Sensor Program, but i think this question can best be answered by the WPF forum.
In my Kinect Project , the User can use Kinect Gestures or Voice Commands. THe Gestures work nicely its like one is using a mouse. i have a challenge with the Voice Commands which follow a certain Process. Please note that this functionality works well when one is not using voice commands.
Let me make a simple example.
i have a 3 Buttons
Button 1 = "System Ok "
Button 2 = " View Error"
Button 3 = "System Reboot"
Step 1: Now the logic say , if a user enter a wrong command , the System must play a sound for Error and the button for " View Error" must Animate.
Step 2: The Rule goes on and say if the User has not click the " View Error" within 5 seconds , Stop the Animation on the " View Error"
Step 3: and Animate the "System Reboot" and play the Sound for "System Reboot"
Now on a normal button click with a Mouse , this would work. But now i am not clicking the Button Physically, i am using Voice Commands and i have trapped the SpeechRecognized event which is defined like this
private void SpeechRecognized(object sender, SpeechRecognizedEventArgs e)
{
const double ConfidenceThreshold = 0.3;
const int DegreesInRightAngle = 90;
const int DisplacementAmount = 60;
this.ClearRecognitionHighlights();
if (e.Result.Confidence >= ConfidenceThreshold)
{
switch (e.Result.Semantics.Value.ToString())
{
case "VIEWERROR":
Error_Escaped = true;
btnViewError_Click(null, null);
break;
case "SYSTEMREBOOT":
btnSystemReboot_Click(null, null);
break;
case "SYSTEMSTATUS":
SystemStatus_Click(null, null);
break;
}
}
else
{
this.Status.Content = Properties.Resources.GrammarConfidenceLow;
Logger.NormalLog("The Confidence is low , the Grammar is not Recognised as a Command", Generics.Generics.ActivePage) ;
}
}
as you can see i am clicking the Buttons programmatically. So if i don't click the "View Error" button within 5 seconds , the System Reboot will start playing another sound.
That was about the Process. Now my challenge is that. After i used a wrong option according to my Process, the "View Error" button will give a sound and i will give a Voice Command to Stop the Sound , the next in the Process will still be fired. So i debugged the code and i realised that the Program , runs all the code that was running and when its done, it hit the "SpeechRecognized" event later, i want to intercept and give the Voice Command the same ability as a button click done with a mouse can do.
This is a function that runs , when there is an Error
private void ViewError()
{
Error_Escaped = false;
ResetBlinking(this.btnViewError);
AnimateButton(this.btnViewError);
Generics.Generics.WaitNSeconds(5);
if (Error_Escaped == false)
{
SystemReboot();
}
}
This will set the Flag for "Error_Escape = false " Which means no one has clicked the button. and it will Animate the Button and wait for 5 second which is my custom interval calculator. Now while its waiting i would keep saying some Voice Command to Stop it. it will still continue while i wait , it will jump to System Reboot which will have its sound. i want the
SpeechRecognized(object sender, SpeechRecognizedEventArgs e)
event to fire when i need it not after the other event of buttons are fired.

I would launch a timer from ViewError(); instead of putting it into a wait state.
The speech recognition event can kill the timer if it still running; else the timer sets off whatever needs to be done after time has elapsed.
(A basic "timeout" pattern).

I'm working on a WPF application for my company that can show the routing of cables on picture.
The Goal is to let the user choose a Part Number of a cable and the cable routing will be shown on the picture of the tool.
I will make two kinds of Access Control:
- Guest - that give only Read-Only access
- Admin - that will give the possibility to change the route on the picture (for example: adding new points, adding labels and connections between points) with Admin Panel
My problem is that i can't move the Label with the mouse, it's working with the point (the point is Path) and the Line.
Also i would like to understand why when i'm clicking on the Label it recognizes it like a TextBlock.
Here's my code:
public void Label_Edit_Mode(MouseButtonEventArgs e, Canvas canvas, bool lbledit)
{
if (lbledit == true)
{
IInputElement clickedElement = Mouse.DirectlyOver;
if (clickedElement is TextBlock)
{
label = clickedElement as TextBlock;
Mouse.Capture(label);
captured = true;
Vector offset = VisualTreeHelper.GetOffset(label);
x_label = offset.X;
x_canvas = e.GetPosition(canvas).X;
y_label = offset.Y;
y_canvas = e.GetPosition(canvas).Y;
}
}
}
public void Move_Points(MouseEventArgs e, Canvas canvas, bool isclicked)
{
if (e.LeftButton != MouseButtonState.Released)
{
if (captured == true && isclicked == false)
{
double x = e.GetPosition(canvas).X;
double y = e.GetPosition(canvas).Y;
{
if (path != null)
{
x_path += x - x_canvas;
Canvas.SetLeft(path, x_path);
x_canvas = x;
y_path += y - y_canvas;
Canvas.SetTop(path, y_path);
y_canvas = y;
}
else if (label != null)
{
x_label += x - x_canvas;
Canvas.SetLeft(label, x_label);
x_canvas = x;
y_label += y - y_canvas;
Canvas.SetTop(label, y_label);
y_canvas = y;
}
else if (line != null)
{
x_line += x - x_canvas;
Canvas.SetLeft(line, x_line);
x_canvas = x;
y_line += y - y_canvas;
Canvas.SetTop(line, y_line);
y_canvas = y;
}
}
}
}
else
{
captured = false;
}
}
here's a picture of how my application looks like:

Look at the remarks on the Mouse.DirectlyOver property:
Controls can be composed of multiple elements. DirectlyOver reports the specific element in the composite control the mouse pointer is over and not the control itself. For example, depending on which part of a Button the pointer is over, the DirectlyOver property could report the TextBox of the Content property or the ButtonChrome.
A Label[^] is a ContentControl. When you add text to it, that gets added as a TextBlock. When the mouse is over the text, DirectlyOver returns the TextBlock from the Content part of the Label control.
Basically, you're looking at the visual tree, not the logical tree. You'll need to use VisualTreeHelper.GetParent[^] to walk up the visual tree until you find the control you're looking for.

I want to group , ungroup canvas user control in wpf application.Though this can be achieved with microsoft visual studio in built function Group and Ungroup which we get from Object and Timeline window.Through ungrouping we are removing unwanted canvas and making only one parent(canvas) to child controls.
Phis i need to achieve programmatically.Please suggest how can I achieve this through programmatically though I want to process my xaml file without doing this manual step and handle it through code behind.
Below mentioned is code snippet of xaml data which is not yet grouped and after that grouping.
Code before ungrouping :

<Canvas Name="_64" RenderTransform="-0.999991, 0.004316, -0.004316, -0.999991, 14.637921, 2145.991988">
<Path Name="_64_G0__MrkrEnd" Visibility="Collapsed" RenderTransform="3.31258, -1.721798, -1.721798, -3.31258, 5.998991, 1066.51392" StrokeLineJoin="Round" Data="M -1 -1 L 0 0 L 1 -1 ">
</Path>
</Canvas>
</Canvas>
