I don't think there is any tool to infer gradient information from an image. This seems like it could get rather complicated. What you might be able to do is create a differential image. You can create an image where each pixel represents the maximum difference in color between that pixel and the pixels neighboring it in the source image. That way, you can have a visualization of the changes in color, rather than just a visual of the colors. That should help you identify exactly where changes to changes (i.e., gradient stops) occur in the image. You could go a step further and make another image that is a differential image of the differential image. This will allow you to see changes in changes in changes (that may be useful for visualizing polynomial gradients that change into different polynomial gradients).
But you'd have to build that tool yourself (unless anybody knows of a tool that can do that). I'd say just eyeball it or have your user experience guy use Expression Blend so you can see the actual XAML that creates the image.

Thanks. Yes, using expression blend by user experience was one of the options we explored, but he is not that familiar with it and he is the only one in team and using EB is time consuming.

What tool is he using to mockup the screens? If he's using something like Photoshop, there is a XAML converter available - take a look here[^] for details.

Thanks for the suggestion and yes he is using Photoshop. I will try using the tool you pointed to.

Hi there, I am getting an error in K2 Service Manager.
System.Exception: Datafield LINE MANAGERApprovals not found

Can you please tell me how to resolve this problem?
Thanks in advance,

Well, I would suggest that you might get a better answer on this site[^] which is dedicated to the software.

i have constructed a 3D object using WPF and i want to rotate that object. i also use the following code to rotate the object:
<Transform3DGroup>
<RotateTransform3D x:Name="rotate_center_x" CenterX="1" CenterY="0" CenterZ="0">
<RotateTransform3D.Rotation>
<AxisAngleRotation3D x:Name="rotatex" Axis="1,0,0" Angle="0" />
</RotateTransform3D.Rotation>
</RotateTransform3D>
<RotateTransform3D x:Name="rotate_center_y" CenterX="0" CenterY="1" CenterZ="0">
<RotateTransform3D.Rotation>
<AxisAngleRotation3D x:Name="rotatey" Axis="0,1,0" Angle="0" />
</RotateTransform3D.Rotation>
</RotateTransform3D>
<RotateTransform3D x:Name="rotate_center_z" CenterX="0" CenterY="0" CenterZ="1">
<RotateTransform3D.Rotation>
<AxisAngleRotation3D x:Name="rotatez" Axis="0,0,1" Angle="0" />
</RotateTransform3D.Rotation>
</RotateTransform3D>
but the problem is, when i rotate the object for a certain angle in x, y and z axis, and come to x-axis again, it doesn't rotate the same direction as previous. you can see the similar types of scenario in the following link.
Click Here
may be here the object rotate along its local coordinate, not its world coordinate. how can i solve this problem?

Alright, here's what I've got. I have an IEnumerable collection of type <Person> containing some random info (name, age, etc). I create a PagedCollectionView using my <Person> collection and bind it to a DataGrid. Then I make a PropertyGroupDescription using the "Name" property of my <Person> object and voila, I've got a datagrid that is grouped by name.
////code for above///////////////
PagedCollectionView pagedCollectionView = new PagedCollectionView(Person.GetPeople(), true, false);
PersonDataGrid.ItemsSource = pagedCollectionView;
PropertyGroupDescription namePropertyGroupDescription = new PropertyGroupDescription("Name");
pagedCollectionView.GroupDescriptions.Add(namePropertyGroupDescription);
/////////////////////////////////
Now instead of just showing the name of the group and the number of items in the RowGroupHeader, I would like to show a DataGrid containing the 1st row of each group. Using this code:
<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White" HorizontalAlignment="Center">
<data:DataGrid x:Name="PersonDataGrid" AutoGenerateColumns="False">
<data:DataGrid.Columns>
<data:DataGridTextColumn Header="Name" Binding="{Binding Name}" />
<data:DataGridTextColumn Header="Age" Binding="{Binding Age}" />
<data:DataGridTextColumn Header="Height" Binding="{Binding Height}" />
<data:DataGridTextColumn Header="Weight" Binding="{Binding Weight}" />
<data:DataGridTextColumn Header="Phone Number" Binding="{Binding Phone}" />
</data:DataGrid.Columns>
<data:DataGrid.RowGroupHeaderStyles>
<Style x:Name="DataGridRowGroupHeaderStyle" TargetType="data:DataGridRowGroupHeader">
<Setter Property="SublevelIndent" Value="0" />
<Setter Property="Height" Value="80" />
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate>
<data:DataGrid AutoGenerateColumns="False" HeadersVisibility="None" ItemsSource="{Binding Items}">
<data:DataGrid.Columns>
<data:DataGridTextColumn Header="Name" Binding="{Binding Name}" />
<data:DataGridTextColumn Header="Age" Binding="{Binding Age}" />
<data:DataGridTextColumn Header="Height" Binding="{Binding Height}" />
<data:DataGridTextColumn Header="Weight" Binding="{Binding Weight}" />
<data:DataGridTextColumn Header="Phone Number" Binding="{Binding Phone}" />
</data:DataGrid.Columns>
</data:DataGrid>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
</data:DataGrid.RowGroupHeaderStyles>
</data:DataGrid>
</Grid>
I've got all of the items in the group showing up in the grid contained in the RowGroupHeader. Is there any way to just show the first row of each group in my RowGroupHeader? I've tried using a converter:
public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
{
List<Person> personList = (value as IEnumerable<Person>).ToList();
return new List<Person> { personList[0] };
}
but I can't get it to work properly. Any ideas?

Nope. I've been secretly hoping that it would be something easy like that, but alas. When I use Items[0] I get an empty grid.

I'm sorry - one more try (with the group)
data:DataGridTextColumn Header="Name" Binding="{Binding Name[0]}"
or
data:DataGridTextColumn Header="Name" Binding="{Binding Person[0].Name}"
In one scenario, I was able bind to a collection use something like myCollection[0].myProperty.

Cool. Thanks for your replies. I ended up using a converter, and the problem with my old converter was that I didn't include
<Grid.Resources>
<Common:GroupHeaderBinder x:Key="GroupHeaderBinder" />
</Grid.Resources>
in my code.

Hi all,
I have two questions about styling a datagrid.
1. I have a style for the combobox. Is it possible to apply the same style to my datagridcomboboxcolumn? Right now my datagridcomboboxcolumn looks like the default windows combobox.
2. How do I set the background of all column headers? I tried a lot, but if I resize my last column (on the right side) to the right and then back to the left, a standard grey header background is displayed at the right side of my last column. This grey header background does not belong to any column. It seems like there is a something like a column container which includes all columns.
Any help is apprechiated.
reibor.

1) Something like this perhaps?
<wpftk:DataGridComboBoxColumn EditingElementStyle="{StaticResource MyComboBoxstyle}" />
(or try ElementStyle=...)
2) Try setting the Width property on the last column to "*".

I have a Silverlight 3.0 application which has the following:
listbox listbox grid (editContainer)
Customers Locations 3 comboboxes
2 textboxes
2 buttons
At startup the customer listbox is populated -- nothing else! At this point all of the controls in the editContainer are unaccessible...as if they are in a disabled state. 
When a customer is selected the customer Locations list is populated, 2 comboboxes are populated. I've walked through this in debug mode and confirmed that the comboboxes are indeed getting data. The combo boxes are using code from another site that inherits the base silverlight code and adds the population logic when a database item has the key value instead of the text value in the combo box.
When I get the message that I can now edit data, everything in the editContainer is still in a disabled state. ComboBoxes don't drop down, cannot get my cursor entered into the textbox, and my buttons don't fire events. I initially thought it was because I added code to set the selected index on the combo boxes to -1, but even after commenting all that out I still have read-only controls.

There's your problem right there.
IsHitTestVisible applies to the object and its children, and prevents it from responding to mouse events.

No problem 
You stare at your own code for too long, you start to focus on some parts and disregard others... Then all it takes is a fresh pair of eyes to find the piece you ignored.
When I think I'm getting to this point, I usually hop on CP or /. for a bit to reboot the old brain.

I have an object tree that has a few different objects types. For each of the object types, I would like them to be instantiated in a treeview with a custom element derived from the treeviewitem. Can someone give me a pointer for getting started with this approach?
I am aware of the simplicity of dealing with a treeview through an object model such as noted in this article[^]. However, this approach does not allow handling routed commands or creating command bindings. It also attaches a model object to a UI element, which complicates the application design if more than one UI element needs to refer to the model item. In my case, I really want the UI cleanly separated from the model. Again, some good pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Creating derived types for controls in WPF is usually a bad idea. Have you heard of DataTemplates or DataTemplateSelectors? You can use the former when you want to use a template according the the type of data (e.g., you can display class Cat differently than class Duck) and you can use the latter to select the template based on custom logic (e.g., if the name of the animal is "Alfred" or the previous animal was a Duck and the current one is a Dog, then display a particular template). I suggest you read Dr. WPF's Take on Data Templates.

I'm looking for information on a more specific issue than your largely unrelated response seems to recognize.
Yes, I am familar with templating, template seletors and what they can/cannot do. The article linked in the original posting and the specific issue of implementing routed command handlers within the individual treeviewitems illuminate the primary issue that I am trying to address. If you have suggestions on effective techniques to solve that sort of issue, your input will be warmly received.
With respect to blandly identifying good or bad approaches for UI development within WPF, I recommend that you review the "Control Authoring Overview" in MSDN. It specificially highlights when to write a new control and the capabities and limitations imposed by the level within the class heirarchy one chooses to base there development.

I can be more specific if you can be more specific. Here are some questions you can answer that may lead to more specific answers for you.
hb52134214 wrote: this approach does not allow handling routed commands or creating command bindings
Sure it does. Why wouldn't it? What are you trying to accomplish and what problems are you running into?
hb52134214 wrote: complicates the application design if more than one UI element needs to refer to the model item
Again, not sure I follow. Can you give an example of how multiple UI elements referring to the same model item complicates things? I'm envisioning a TextBlock and a TextBox binding to the same item... I don't see a problem with that.

Some people suggest MVVM. However, I never really have liked the concept of a view model. For more complex models (custom trees and such), rebuilding that as a view model seems like a lot of work. Sometimes, though, it is really easy to create a model and a view model. I personally don't stick to any particular design pattern religiously... I just try them and use them when I feel it's appropriate.
