Hi. I am Marko.
How do I make popup window just like the options window You made on this sample page (I repeat OPTIONS WINDOW):
http://samples.infragistics.com/sllob/RunSamples.aspx?cn=dialog-window#/dialog-window/showing-the-dialog
Code:
xmlns:optPanel="clr-namespace:Infragistics.Web.SampleBrowser.SilverlightLOB.CustomControls"
<optPanel:OptionsPanel HeaderText="{Binding Source={StaticResource Strings}, Path=XDW_Options}"> <StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" Margin="5"> <Button Content="{Binding Source={StaticResource Strings}, Path=XDW_ShowDialog_Plain}" Height="22" Margin="0,0,0,10"></Button> <Button Content="{Binding Source={StaticResource Strings}, Path=XDW_ShowDialog_Container}" Height="22" Margin="0,0,0,10"></Button> <Button Content="{Binding Source={StaticResource Strings}, Path=XDW_ShowDialog_MessageBox}" Height="22"></Button> </StackPanel> </optPanel:OptionsPanel>
The thing is I want to make exact same thing and that includes: shadows around the edges, movable ,semi transparent when moving, expandable on that + - button. Only difference I would make it pop up on some button click and it would have fade-in appearing effect. I like it very much but I don't have the code for that custom control. Can You please paste all the required code and instructions here how to do this. It would be very cool. Thank You.
Hello Marko,
Thank you for your post. I have been looking into it and I created a sample project for you with the functionality you want. Please let me know if this is what you want or I have misunderstood you in some way.
Looking forward for your reply.
Hi
Thanks very much.
This is exactly what I asked for and you have understood me right.
These functionalities give very elegant look to application.
I have just opened your project and run it and it works fine without errors.
I will try to incorporate this options window in my project and if I stumble upon any errors or have any other doubts or ideas I will ask on this ticket again. Thanks for help again. Cya.
Hello Cya,
Thank you for your feedback. I am glad that you resolved your issue and I believe that other community members may benefit from this as well.
Thanks again.
Hi again it's Marko.
Ok, so I have managed to use this OptionsPanel in my project but I have one more question, that is:
How can I programmatically expand and collapse body of the OptionsPanel ?? Just like I would do it manually by clicking on that toggle button (+ -). Can I do that by C# code from MainPage where OptionsPanel is hosted like in your example project ??
I have been looking into your requirement and I modified the sample I sent you before, so now it has the functionality you want. Please let me know if this helps you or you need further assistance on this matter.
When I start your project it works fine (expanding and collapsing) but when I copy code to my project and run it it throws an error in this function "GetChildFromName", error is: "Reference is not a valid visual DependencyObject." - it trows it at for loop and when I debug I can see that function parameter "parent" is NULL and that is the reason for not working right. Why is it NULL I don't know.
Any ideas??
Hello,
I have been looking into your requirement but it seems like am missing something about your scenario, so if this is still an issue for you, could you please send me an isolated sample project, where this is reproduced, so I can investigate it further for you.
Ok, never mind about that thanks anyways, I have other issues with my project,
Thanks again, if I have any more issues I will write.
Marko.
Hi Stefan,
it's Marko again,
I have an issue with <ig:XamGrid xam grid silverlight control. I am trying to color rows background for different values of some column, for example if value of column [TIP] in some row is "EXTERNI" then fill the bg color of that row with color (255,0,0) and if some row has value "INTERNI" for column [TIP] paint that row in color (0, 255, 0). If value of column [TIP] in some row is "TEREN" than fill that row with color (0,0,255).. But what happens when I run my app is that this kind of coloring works but only on every second row (it's like red white blue white blue white green white green white) and as you can see there is a lot of white rows (other every second for which coloring doesn't work). Why is this happening? And what am I doing wrong? I am very curious about this.
Best regards,
I have been looking into your post and since the XamGrid has alternating Rows by default, you have two options to achieve your goal. First, you can turn off the alternating by setting the XamGrid’s IsAlternateRowEnabled Property to false. Your other options is to change AltBackground Property of CellControl, too, not just the Background color. Please let me know if this helps you or you need further assistance on this matter.
Hi Stefan
It helped, tough I have found this property "IsAlternateRowsEnabled" and set it to False. Now I don't have those white rows and that problem is solved. My problem with this grid is that it looks quite big. Rows are too high and when I set height to some smaller value like RowHeight="16" (for example) I can't see hole data in rows because it seem that every row has some kind of inner padding and that padding pushes data lower to be overlapped by row below. How do I set that padding to be 0px? So that I can make my XamGrid look like lines of this post for example ??
