Can any one Help
I mean, I want to create a application that has a toolbox and drag the controls from toolbox and drop in the workspace. Once we drop the controls in workspace, the properties related to that particular control should be displayed in property Panel.Once we change the properties it should affect the workspace controls.(This Application like Visual studio toolbox and property box)
can any one give some Idea.

Why did you delete your post below? You should have clarified that post rather than leaving my answer to it dangling.
Anyway - you're obviously going to have to write a property grid control and populate it with the properties using Reflection. That's a fair bit of work there.

I'm not sure what you're asking. What do you need help with?

Hi,
Im using WPF for designing the form.im having a dockpanel in the dockpanel i have splited into two regions by using the following code
<Border Height="50" x:Uid="Left" CornerRadius="0,0,40,40" Background="#81a4d1" BorderBrush="#4D6C82" BorderThickness="1" DockPanel.Dock="left">
</Border>
<Border Width="200" x:Uid="Right" Background="#b2ccec" BorderBrush="#4D6C82" BorderThickness="1" DockPanel.Dock="right">
</Border>
Then im having two buttons namely Client and Product in the left border and im having two stack panel with some controls related to client and product.now if im clicking client button means the client information related stackpanel should be visible and if i click product button means the product related stackpanel should be visible, how can i achieve this?
i have tried the below code but its getting hidden but the alternate panel is not getting visible..
private void BtnClient_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
StkClient.Visibility = Visibility.Visible;
StkProduct.Visibility = Visibility.Hidden;
}
private void BtnProduct_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
StkProduct.Visibility = Visibility.Visible;
StkClient.Visibility = Visibility.Hidden;
}

I have a couple questions for WPF that I hope have simple answers:
Suppose I want to make my interface modular and abstract, so that I don't need to group everything into a single xaml file. What is the simplest and most efficient way to dynamically swap out pieces of a xaml interface?
In WinForms this could be done simply by using panels, and changing the child control(s) of the panel. Is there a similar idea in WPF?
And relatedly, what's the best way to define xaml fragments that aren't entire windows themselves. User controls? Pages?
And finally (bonus, unrelated question): is WPF layout strictly grid/hierarchically-based? If I want a fragment such as the above to appear floating over the other elements in a window/grid, can i do that without creating a new window?
In your debt,
Logan

The architecture you want to consider is the Composite Application Guidance[^]. This architecture is designed to apply the "hot swapping" because it uses IoC. Please have a look at this[^] link for more details.

Well - I'm partial to User controls myself.

Oh yes - WPF is full of funky 3D goodness that allows you to move elements through 3D space.

Thanks I will take a(nother) look at that. I had skimmed it earlier, but I thought that since it required an actual DLL that it was something way more than what I was looking for.

I hate to say this, but it drops in quite a few. You get the Unity Dll as well.

I'm just surprised that WPF wasn't designed to be modular from the start. It seems too web-page-like, when even web pages are now becoming dynamic and modular.

Well, the big issue with WPF is that it's totally different to Win Forms programming, so the standards and techniques are being defined by the gods of WPF (like the Rockstar, Dr WPF, Sacha and the Molenator).

Different is fine if it's an improvement, but I am really feeling lost that what I want to do is not immediately doable. I can understand when the designers (or "gods") tell you you can't do something the old way because the new way is clearly better (like, say, MVC) but I don't see that as being the case here, at least at my current level of understanding.
I mentioned in my rant in the lounge how un-obvious it is to build and share contextual menus between multiple sources, or really to handle any kind of dynamic generation--allow me to ask you this:
Suppose I have an objective encapsulation of a "command" that can be applied to an object, and I want those commands to appear in a contextual menu when the target object is right-clicked. The name, icon, tool tip, etc. should all be figured-out from the command itself, and not statically "baked into" the interface. Furthermore, the actual selection of commands should be dynamic, based on some method that runs.
I want each MenuItem to be dynamically generated based on these "rules", and constructed based on properties of the command (i.e. the name, icon, etc.), and then to populate that context menu with the generated items... but more complicated things I would like to use (as I mentioned in the original question) an abstract modular approach, where I can define the rendering of a particular object dynamically based on an abstract XAML object, such as a user control.
Is this still possible in WPF? Obviously it isn't in XAML, but tell me I can still perform this kind of dynamic generation in code. Maybe I have the wrong impression of WPF because I'm trying to do everything in XAML when I should be looking at the programmatic methods.
Your thoughts?

You can reuse items just by giving them a key. A really fun thing to do is to define your item in a different assembly which can be loaded at runtime, just by using ContextMenu={DynamicResource MyMenu} in your item.

That's good to know. Guess I was just looking in the wrong places.

Hi all,
Please help with code and description that is there any way to call old style class library in Silverlight application?
I know that there is "Silverlight Class Library" available in dot net 3.5 but in my situation I need to call Old Class library.
Thanks in advance.

Yes, just create silverlight class library. Put your class(es) in there and compile. Then you can reference that dll from any silverlight project. Note, silverlight contains a subset of .net.

Hey can anybody tell me how can I validate userinputs.For example if user enters some text in textbox I want to check it and return errormessage if not a proper input.I think You undersstood what I mean to say.
|
|
|
|

Did you look at Textbox events here[^]. If you just want to validate then perhaps LostFocus would be fine, or if you want to want to prevent the user from entering invalid input then you may use the KeyDown event. Hope that helps.

To all lovers of XAML and WPF, go and check out XAML Power Toys

I included three movies to get anyone up and running fast. Has binary install and source downloads.
This is a Visual Studio Add-In that will help you with everyday tasks like creating forms for classes in very short order.
Feature Set
• Group Into - allows developer to select one or more controls and group them inside a new parent.
• Remove Margins - allows a developer to select one or more controls and remove all margins from them.
• Create Business Form - allows a developer to quickly create a form complete with bindings if desired.
• Edit Grid & Column Rows - allows a developer to select a grid and then add or remove rows and columns.
• Create Business Form For Class - allows a developer to quickly create a form complete with bindings that are easily associated with properties on the source class.
