Awesome! I love meeting devlopers from all over the world.

"Plugging away" in that context is a phrase that means, keep working, keep going, keep coding, keep reading books, keep reading Internet articles.

It's normally used in a postive context also.

In other words, you are doing the correct thing and doing a great job!

Well, for a start - this isn't a private message board for Sacha. If you want to comment on an article or ask him a question about an article, you should use one of his articles.

How to update tabindex

Hi! I'm new to wpf, and I'm trying to figure out how the tab control is working.

I've got a layout(grid) which consist of several grids, and each grid has a textbox or combobox in it(Sort of like a form). I've created a config window where I can change the layout of the form. This means that the tabindex has changed, from the original layout.
Any idea how I can alter the tabindex? I have the layout saved in a list, is it possible to add the tabindex to the list somehow??

I'm confused here Confused | :confused:

Hope someone can help me out Big Grin | :-D

Thanx in advance!!

I'll try to explain some more... Smile | :)

example of how I've built up my so called form.

<grid>
<grid x:key="IDGrid" grid.column = 0 grid.row = 0>
<label>id</label>
<textbox Name="ID">
</grid>
<grid x:key="DescrGrid" grid.column = 1 grid.row = 0>
<label>Description</label>
<textbox Name="Description">
</grid>
</grid>

Then I have a drag and drop function where I can change the layout, So I say that the DescrGrid should be placed in column = 0, and row = 0, and the IDGrid is moved to column = 1. (ie. layout has now changed)

When I have the original layout I can use the focusDirection and move.Focus next. But when I change the layout, I still have the "original" tabindex order, so when I try move.next, it doesn't work..
Anyone who know how to do this in a dynamically way..

pleeze someone Big Grin | :-D

The error is:

This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID '{33BC7430-EEC0-11D2-8201-00A0C9D74842}' failed due to the following error: No such interface supported (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004002 (E_NOINTERFACE)).

Please help me out quickly to clarify this issue...

Hi,

I am developing a video editor in WPF, as my final year project. Can you please help me with the timeline process. Like in Adobe Premiere, or any other editing softwares. How can i add my videos, images, etc to the timeline and how to play the timeline?

Thanks

Re: Please Help

The concept of editing a video, overlaying images, merging sound and text is a huge undertaking.

WPF does not ship a TimeLine control that you can add things to and have them produce a video.

I don't mean to rain on your project, in fact I wish you the best on this.

If I can think about a starting point, I'll post back to you.

Here are some links I found. Check them out.

There program looks nice. I'm not sure where to start. I hope some of the links I provided can get you going. Maybe there are other links on the Internet.

Probably your first task should be, understanding "how" to edit a video file. Write a program that allows adding text or images to a video file.

Once you know "how" editing process works, putting it in a TimeLine should be the easy part.

Hi all,

I am really new to WPF and I am trying to create a combo box that has the ability to display an ellipses character if the text is too long (for the selected item). Can anyone help?

<ComboBox Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="1" IsEditable="False" Width="200">
<ComboBoxItem>Electronics, Game Systems, Cameras & Photo</ComboBoxItem>
<ComboBoxItem>Computers and Networking</ComboBoxItem>
<ComboBoxItem>Clothing, Shoes, and Accessories</ComboBoxItem>
<ComboBoxItem>Books, Music, Movies, DVDs, and Video Games</ComboBoxItem>
<ComboBoxItem IsSelected="True">All Other Categories</ComboBoxItem>
</ComboBox>

Hi Karl,

Thank you for the reply. I actually did see this article before posting. I could not get it to work. How do I set the DataTemplate for the combobox?

User 2710092-Oct-08 17:11

2-Oct-08 17:11

Here is a code snippet from one of my programs.

<ComboBox x:Name="cboBindingPath" SelectedValuePath="Name" VerticalAlignment="Top">
<ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Name}" />
</DataTemplate>
</ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
</ComboBox>

hmm. I must have something wrong. My code is below. When I select the item that is longer than the width of the combobox it does not show the ellipsis characters. Any thing that you can see that I am doing wrong?

<ComboBox Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="1" IsEditable="False" Width="200" x:Name="Category">
<ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding ElementName=Category, Path=SelectedItem}" TextTrimming="CharacterEllipsis"/>
</DataTemplate>
</ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
<ComboBoxItem>Electronics, Game Systems, Cameras & Photo</ComboBoxItem>
<ComboBoxItem>Computers and Networking</ComboBoxItem>
<ComboBoxItem>Clothing, Shoes, and Accessories</ComboBoxItem>
<ComboBoxItem>Books, Music, Movies, DVDs, and Video Games</ComboBoxItem>
<ComboBoxItem IsSelected="True">All Other Categories</ComboBoxItem>
</ComboBox>

I see what you mean. I have a hack, but want to give you a better solution. I'm in the middle to posting a new version of XAML Power Toys, so I'll get back to this tomorrow night after work.

For now, move ahead, we'll get this.
