I've made a bit more progress on this. The app has multiple configurations. When the configuration is changed, a bar appears at the top that says
Current solution contains incorrect configurations mappings. It may cause projects to not work correctly. Open the Configuration Manager to fix them
None of the code wrapped in an #if / #endif sections are active, so this leads me to believe there's a config issue. Since the project file was converted from .Net Framework to .Net Core, I'm a bit unsure on what to look for.
Any thoughts on this?
Thanks!
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.
Ya can't fix stupid.

It looks like that's related to "conditions" in the csproj referring to configuration profiles that don't exist in the solution. Look for things like:
<Configuration Condition=" '$(Configuration)' == '' ">Debug</Configuration> and check that the configuration value matches an existing build configuration for your solution:

Im building a Ticker User Control and my dependency property's that directly bind to the XAML which works great, but I have some dependency property's that drive the Beating Internal Class which controls the motion of the three bars.
When I change these in the viewmodel they have no affect on the Internal Class Property's so I cant change the speed or starting length and so on.
I though if I passed in the Code behind class into the Beating internal class I could do it this way, but i almost need an onPropertychanged event to force the update.
thanks

A DependencyObject such as a UserControl doesn't need to implement INotifyPropertyChanged. The DependencyProperty already raises the necessary events when the value changes.
You're passing in the current value of a DependencyProperty to the Beating class. At that point, there is no connection between the int in the Beating class and the DependencyProperty.
The simplest option is probably to reverse the connection, and use binding to move the values around when they change:
internal sealed class Beating : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
private readonly Timer? _timer;
private int _value;
private bool _direction;
public int Value
{
get { return _value; }
set
{
if (value != _value)
{
_value = value;
OnPropertyChanged();
}
}
}
public int Increment { get; set; }
public int MinValue { get; set; }
public int MaxValue { get; set; }
public string BeatName { get; }
public double Speed
{
get { return _timer.Interval; }
set { _timer.Interval = value; }
}
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler? PropertyChanged;
private void OnPropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] string? propertyName = null)
{
PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
}
public Beating(int initialValue, int increment, int minValue, int maxValue, string beatName, double speed)

_value = initialValue;
Increment = increment;
MinValue = minValue;
MaxValue = maxValue;
BeatName = beatName;

1) if I use the usercontrol name "Name="WaitTickerCustomControl" then the Custom Control disappears in the Main Window odd.
2) The directly Bound dependency property are bound but nothing updates
3) The Indirectly Bound property's only affect the third ticker odd...
Thanks for the help im learning alot.

ElementName=WaitTickerCustomControl
A pointless assignment. Which is addressed by a simple
this.DataContext = this; in the constructor. (Which may be required in any case).
All your "dependency properties", on first glance, look like a reach that could have been defaulted in code behind; complimented with an "options" flyout / popup.

Each control has a DataContext. You can let them default to a "higher up", or set them each explicitly. Setting a DataContext is rarely an issue; omitting them is. The excess of pointless XAML and dependency properties is obfuscating the problem. That was my (indirect) point.

So how would you guys build this custom control?
|
|
|
|
|
You're actually creating a user control; and not a "custom control".
The "simplest" way to create a user control is to add properties {get;set;} to the UC in the .cs; bind the controls in the .xaml to the properties in the .cs; and implement INotifyPropertyChanged (which for a "few" controls, can be issued with "no contol name" without any hit on performance). The DataContext of the UC is the UC; i.e. "this".
Any time there is new data, you load the properties and call "property changed" which updates the UI. If it's a two-way UI, data moves to the properties and events on the controls get invoked (e.g. text changed).
That's the pattern, and most everything else has a "smell".  
Anything else that happens is a function of what events the user control wants to "surface" (e.g. a request queued to an observable collection or file watcher).

Within my View Model i have a property and backer to bind to the ControlHideShow, I don't get a bind error but if I change the default value in the View Model nothing happens. If I don't bind in the Implementation XAML and set Visible or Hidden it works so why can I not bind to the ViewModel
thanks

I suspect it's because you've set the DataContext on the <UserControl> element. That means the <controls:WaitTickerControl ... ControlHideShow="{Binding ControlHideShow}" /> is binding the user control's property to itself, rather than the property from the inherited viewmodel.
Try removing the DataContext assignment - you've specified the ElementName in your binding, so you shouldn't need it.
<UserControl
x:Class="DES.CATIAV6.ClearanceContactAndClashManager.UI.Controls.WaitTicker_Control"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:DES.CATIAV6.ClearanceContactAndClashManager.UI.Controls"
mc:Ignorable="d"
Background="Transparent"
Height="70" Width="60"
Name="WaitTickerControl"
>
<Grid Name="WaitTickerMainGrid" Visibility="{Binding Path=ControlHideShow, ElementName=WaitTickerControl, FallbackValue=Hidden}">
...
</Grid>
</UserControl> If that doesn't work, try setting the DataContext on the Grid instead of the UserControl.

I searched the Internet and realized that there are different frameworks for the MVVM pattern used in WPF applications. One of them which is mostly used is MVVM Light but unfortunately, its development has ceased. I want to know what MVVM framework is mostly used and if there are adequate tutorials on the Internet for it.

It's hard to say which framework is the most common because stats like this aren't readily available. If you are just looking for a supported framework then Microsoft has a framework available as part of the community toolkit; it's well documented[^].

Prism isn't Microsoft offering. It's maintained by Brian Lagunas and Dan Siegel. Both are MVPs, but work for other companies.

So, the fact that someone else now maintains it negates my opinion even though Microsoft originated it? Run with that.

It has been so long away from the P&P camp that Microsoft's influence on it has long been expunged. The simple fact is, Microsoft has their own MVVM offering which has nothing to do with Prism. Your statement implied that Prism was a Microsoft offering and it hasn't been for a long time so if you are pushing someone to Microsoft's offering, at least make sure it is Microsoft that is offering it.

I have the following code in Code-Behind section of my WPF MVVM:
public EquipmentIdentity()
{
InitializeComponent();
EquipmentIdentityViewModel eivm = new EquipmentIdentityViewModel();
DataContext = eivm;
dataPager.OnDemandLoading += dataPager_OnDemandLoading;
}
private void dataPager_OnDemandLoading(object sender, Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Controls.DataPager.OnDemandLoadingEventArgs args)
{
}
How can I remove this event handling from Code-Behind and take it to the ViewModel?
When I use dataPager.OnDemandLoading += dataPager_OnDemandLoading; in ViewModel it shows this error:
Quote: System.NullReferenceException: 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.'

View models are about "data"; not "behavior".
