I have a DP that I registered as BindsTwoWayByDefault. This works fine if I bind it to property in the VM, but if I bind it to something in the XAML, then it gives me the exception 'Two-way binding requires Path or XPath error'.
if I do:
{Binding SomeProperty}
it works fine, but if I do:
{Binding ElementName=filenameColumn}
then I get that exception. Is there something else I need to do to get the first method to be 2 way by default and the second way to not throw an exception.
I think some of the .NET properties behave that way, in that they are 2 way on the first method, but don't puke on the second method.
I have another DP thats an enum and it doesn't have this issue (I can bind to a property in the VM as well as hard code the enum type in a string), just when the DP type is a class. I register them both the same exact way.

The issue you are seeing here is that the binding doesn't know what it has to bind to, so if you did {Binding Path=., ElementName=filenameColumn} it should work. Basically, ElementName is not a path so it cannot be used like this, it has nothing to do with whether or not the binding is 2 way.

Originally the DP was 1-way, so it didn't have this issue and both methods worked fine.
{Binding ElementName=filenameColumn}
This binding DOES work fine (when the DP is one way). The DP was correctly set to filenameColumn. This method:
{Binding SomePropertyInVM}
worked fine as well. Well, sort of. The 2nd method didn't update the property in the VM which is why I made it 2-way. If I change the property back to 1-way, then both methods work again (except for the fact that the 2nd method doesn't update the property in the VM).
What I was saying in my original post was that I don't have this issue with another similiar DP that I changed to 2-way as well. Except that type is a ListViewSortDirection enum and this DP is a GridViewColumn.
So on the other DP, I can do:
TheDP="Ascending" AND TheDP="{Binding SomePropInTheVM}"
if I bind to the prop in the VM, it works fine as 2 way. I guess the first method here isn't using binding, so it doesn't have that issue.
I did try adding a Path=. to the binding as you suggested and it does fix the problem, but I dunno which one is uglier lol:
Having to do this for hard coding in the XAML:
{Binding ElementName=filenameColumn, Path=.}
vs having to do this for MVVM:
{Binding SomePropInTheVM, Mode=TwoWay}

Meh, I'll just leave it as two-way by default because that'll be the more widely used scenario and let the ElementName people specifically add a Mode=OneWay tag. Thats a little cleaner then Path=. IMHO.

Hello All,
I have came across below mentioned error message. I dont know why such types issue happens.Anyone can tell me why this issue happens...
Runtime Error 4008... Layout Cycle Detected... Layout Could Not Complete.
Thanks
|
|
|
|

This means that you have put too many user controls on the page for the render cycle to complete. It has been upper bounded so that "pathological" (thanks to Microsoft's Rob Relyea for using this term) bounds don't come into play. Basically, the layout has been bounded so that the layout cycle doesn't complete because the layout size is changing.
Rob Relyea has this to say (citing textboxes as an example):
"Layout uses while loops, and the loops need some sort of upper bound on them so that they don’t loop forever in pathological conditions. An example of a pathological condition is if foo’s size is changed in the foo.SizeChanged event handler. There are a number of ways that a layout loop counter can be “used up” legitimately, such as doing anything to invalidate measure during an arrange call, invalidating measure or arrange during a SizeChanged or LayoutUpdated handler (even if a pathological condition is avoided), etc. The TextBox control is doing something to “use up” a layout loop iteration. Since the layout cycle detection is triggered at 250 iterations, under ideal circumstances, you can measure/arrange at most ~250 TextBoxes at once. It has nothing to do with frame rate, the hardware, the browser, etc. It also doesn’t matter how many TextBoxes you have in total, just how many you are laying out in one frame. This is most critical at startup time, when if you have > 250 visible TextBoxes in the tree, you will get a layout cycle. You will also have problems any other time you add > 250 visible TextBoxes, or if you have somehow incrementally added TextBoxes in groups so that you have gotten away with having more than 250, but all TextBoxes layout has been invalidated at once, such as by resizing the browser. You can have as many collapsed TextBoxes on the screen as you want—layout just skips over collapsed controls. Also, if you add the TextBoxes incrementally, and somehow manage them so that they won’t all get invalidated at once (e.g. by putting them in parent containers that won’t ever be resized) you should be OK."

My goal is to have a *reusable* TreeView control (lets call it MyTreeView) that fills in all the missing pieces of the current WPF TreeView. That is, I want to have out of the box support for images, checkboxes, node lines, etc. When I first started learning WPF, I wrote a MyTreeView control that does exactly this, so I know how to accomplish all that stuff... however, since I was just learning WPF at the time, it wasn't written very well and broke a lot of WPF functionality that I now fully undertand  . So its time to rewrite it.
My issue is kind of which way to go with the core design. I know I don't want to give up the HierachialDataTemplate functionality (which I kind of did with v1), but I also know that I would ideally like to rely on the developer for how to get the data ONLY. I do not want the developer to have to deal with setting up the VisualTree. Thats my job.
I always see the HierachialDataTemplates set up like this:
<HierarchicalDataTemplate x:Key="TreeViewItemTemplate" ItemsSource="{Binding Value}">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Key}" />
</HierarchicalDataTemplate>
That does populate the tree and I would like to keep that functionality, but I'd like to do something where instead of specifying a TextBlock like everybody does, I'd like to have something along the lines of:
<HierarchicalDataTemplate x:Key="TreeViewItemTemplate" ItemsSource="{Binding Value}">
<ItemTextBinding="{Binding Key}" ItemImageBinding="{Binding ImageSource}" ItemIsCheckedBinding="{Binding IsChecked}" />
</HierarchicalDataTemplate>
Doesn't have to be that exact syntax, but you get the idea... instead of specifying the VisualTree, I want to specify how the various UI elements should be data binded (or bound?).
Some issues that I haven't figured out:
1) I can't have attached properties on HierarchicalDataTemplate, so I'd probably have to derive a new class called TreeViewDataTemplate or whatever and force the developer to use that?
2) Doesn't seem possible to set properties on TreeViewItem from within the HierarchicalDataTemplate?
3) the highlight / focus rectangle covers everything in the HierarchicalDataTemplate VisualTree, fine for Vista / Win7 since thats the style, but on XP, thats not the style... the image and checkbox is not included in the highlight rectangle.
If #2 is not possible in anyway, it seems like this idea is kind of dead in the water... I did a similiar thing for ListView, but that had a clean place where the containers are created and I could easily hook into and set up all the data binding... doesn't seem to be the case here.

As you can see, all path's coorditates are shifted out of the canvas' bounds and then translated back. Is there an easy (automatic) way to translate all paths Data, so the redutant transform could by removed?
EDIT: I have tried to paste it to Calc and use a formula to add transform's parameter, but I realized that Calc cannot distinguish X and Y in path's Data.
Thanks in advance,
Greetings - Jacek

The Path's data ends up being a StreamGeometry at runtime and I don't see a direct way to get at its data.
You could try something like this (taken from this link[^]):
PathGeometry geometryTransformed = Geometry.Combine(Geometry.Empty, geometry, GeometryCombineMode.Union, transform);

IMHO it's rather a text processing task. After all, I want to alter the XAML to remove Transform declaration. It seems that I will left it as it is and it end up in a hall of shame some day, xor write a script which will make it.

Hi
I have a four combo boxes, along with one text box and all 5 controls. The principle is that if the user selects an item from the first combo box, this selected item then gets reflected in the text box and the four other combo boxes. Whilst this action is working, if the user then selects a new item from the first combo box, say the next item down in the list, the new item is not showing in the other controls. The previous item is still there and hasn't been refreshed. Checking the class object, when first used, the object is being set with the value, but when selecting a new value from the combo box, this new value is not being passed on or up dates the object. I am using INotifyPropertyChanged!
I have set IsSyncronizeWithCurrentItem ="true" on all of the combo boxes, but this isn't working.
How do you very simply, keep all these controls in sync? Code is being built using MVVM design pattern.

IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem does work. I've used it myself. I won't ask why you have 4 ComboBoxes and a TextBox all showing the same exact info , but if its not working, you're likely doing something wrong, so post your code.

|
|
|

Check that the binding of the selecteditem in the combobox is Mode="TwoWay".

hello guys... I am new to Silverlight. I am trying to create child windows in silverlight but when I try to access some of the methods shown online, those methods are not shows in intellisense. For example
namespace SampleGUIs
{
public partial class MainPage : UserControl
{
private ChildWindow cw;
public MainPage()
{
InitializeComponent();
cw = new ChildWindow();
cw.Closed += new EventHandler(ShowMessage);
}
}
}
I have included System.Windows and System.Windows.Control. Same is the case in ChildWindow.xaml. Some of the methods are not shown like
namespace SilverlightApplication9
{
public partial class PopupWindow : ChildWindow
{
public PopupWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
this.Title = "Child Window";
}
}
}
what can be the problem? thnx

Seems rather obvious, ChildWindow does not have a Title Property whereas UserControl does. It all comes down to what you are deriving your view from.

Thanx for your answer. It certainly has Title property. I have just solved it. May be I was putting the code in wrong places. But now its working.

lets say I have something like this in XAML:
<GridViewColumnCollection x:Key="Foo">
<GridViewColumn ... />
<GridViewColumn ... />
<GridViewColumn ... />
</GridViewColumnCollection>
if I do FindResource("Foo"), I get a GridViewColumnCollection, no problemo.
However, I'm using docking windows, and in a lot of situations, multiple windows share the same exact instance of MyUserCtrl.xaml and so they share the same exact instance of GridViewColumnCollection. This happens if I open multiple windows of the same type. Its a VisualTree optimization in docking windows.
So what happens is that if I resize a column in MyUserCtrl(instance 1), those values are shared across to MyUserCtrl(instance 2).
I could declare the GridViewColumns in code, but setting up all the properties, bindings, etc. is a PITA.
Is there a way to say "give me a new instance of Foo?
GridViewColumnCollection unfortunately does not implement IClonable. GridViewColumnCollection and GridViewColumn are not serializable either, so I can't do that trick.
Doing a member wise copy seems like another PITA.
Surely there has to be a clever way to keep those columns defined in XAML and be able to copy them or get new instances?
|
|
|
|
|
Seems like it works if I break GridViewColumnCollection out into a seperate ResourceDictionary and just create new instances of that ResourceDictionary. Seems kinda cheezy though. If you have a better way, let me know.

You could use XamlReader[^] perhaps.
