C# WPF UserControls are not in the windows

C# WPF UserControls are not in the windows - c#

the MainWindow Code is like this:
<Window x:Class="UserGUI.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:UserGUI"
mc:Ignorable="d"
Title="MainWindow" Height="657.278" Width="952.33" ResizeMode="CanMinimize">
<Canvas>
<ContentControl Name="mainContentControl" Grid.Column="0" Height="585" Width="934" Canvas.Top="31"/>
<ContentControl Name="upperMenu" Grid.Column="1" Height="31" Width="944"/>
</Canvas>
and the xaml is:
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
mainContentControl.Content = new AdminMenu();
upperMenu.Content = new LoginScreen();
}
But I do not see the user controls in my mainwindow...
It seems they are not aligned at all
What am i doing wrong?
The LoginScreen Canvas is:
<Canvas x:Name="loginCanvas" Background="BlanchedAlmond" Height="620" VerticalAlignment="Top" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Width="934">
and the window of the userControl window itself is:
Height="630" Width="944">
Hope i'm clear enough

There are some strange things in your XAML. There is no Grid and no columns, but you have some positioning based on it. Try this:
<Window x:Class="UserGUI.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:UserGUI"
Title="MainWindow" Height="657.278" Width="952.33" ResizeMode="CanMinimize">
<Canvas>
<ContentControl Name="mainContentControl" Height="585" Width="934" Canvas.Top="31" Canvas.Left="0"/>
<ContentControl Name="upperMenu" Canvas.Top="0" Canvas.Left="0" Height="31" Width="944"/>
</Canvas>

WPF: Can't change property of custom control inside other control template (+Pictures)

Let's create an empty WPF project.
Add a very simple UserControl (i named it MyUserControl):
<UserControl x:Class="Delete_This_Test.MyUserControl"
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"
mc:Ignorable="d"
Background="Red"
Height="100">
<Grid>
</Grid>
</UserControl>
As you can see, i have changed only 2 properties: Background and Height to "Red" and "100".
Put our created control in MainWindow:
<Window x:Class="Delete_This_Test.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:Delete_This_Test"
mc:Ignorable="d"
Title="MainWindow" Height="450" Width="800">
<Grid>
<local:MyUserControl Width="100"
Height="200"
Background="Blue">
</local:MyUserControl>
</Grid>
</Window>
Here, i have changed Width, Height and Background to "100", "200" and "Blue".
And it works: Without ControlTemplate Picture
But if we put MyUserControl in some ControlTemplate, for example of Button:
<Window x:Class="Delete_This_Test.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:Delete_This_Test"
mc:Ignorable="d"
Title="MainWindow" Height="450" Width="800">
<Grid>
<Button>
<Button.Template>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="Button">
<local:MyUserControl Width="100"
Height="200"
Background="Blue">
</local:MyUserControl>
</ControlTemplate>
</Button.Template>
</Button>
</Grid>
</Window>
This will not work. Only Width property will changed, because we didn't set it in MyUserControl xaml.
Height and Background will be the same as "100" and "Red":
With ControlTemplate Picture
So my question is: Is it bug of WPF, or i'm missing something obvious?
*
Because i need to use one custom control in different templates, and change some properties, e.g. Background of control

how to run a dialog from the code?

i'm coding a c# application using material design
here is my UserControl's xaml code :
<UserControl
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:MediCare"
xmlns:materialDesign="http://materialdesigninxaml.net/winfx/xaml/themes" x:Name="Usc1" "
mc:Ignorable="d" Height="900" Width="600">
<materialDesign:DialogHost x:Name="Dialog" >
<materialDesign:DialogHost.DialogContent>
<Grid Width="300" Height="100">
<TextBlock Text="DIALOG TEST"/>
<Button Command="{x:StaticmaterialDesign:DialogHost.CloseDialogCommand}" Content="CloseDialog"/>
</Grid>
</materialDesign:DialogHost.DialogContent>
<Grid>
<Button Command="{x:Static materialDesign:DialogHost.OpenDialogCommand}" Content="CloseDialog" />
</Grid>
</materialDesign:DialogHost>
i've a button with the command Command="{x:Static
materialDesign:DialogHost.OpenDialogCommand}" to open my dialog, but my purpose is to open it through the .xaml.cs, how can i do ?

I got the dialog to show using Dialog.IsOpen = true;

Zoombox from Xceed WPF Toolkit not working

I am experimenting with the Zoombox control from Xceed, but I am having trouble getting it to respond to mouse wheel or pan events. Nothing happens when I use these inputs. Am I missing something in my code or configuration?
https://github.com/xceedsoftware/wpftoolkit
<Window x:Class="UI.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:xcdg="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/datagrid"
xmlns:xctk="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/toolkit"
mc:Ignorable="d"
Title="MainWindow" Height="800" Width="700">
<Grid>
<xctk:Zoombox MinScale="0.5" MaxScale="100" >
<Grid Width="600" Height="400" Background="Yellow">
<Ellipse Fill="Blue" />
</Grid>
</xctk:Zoombox>
</Grid>
</Window>

You have to define DragModifiers and ZoomModifiers. Default values are Ctrl and Shift keys. So use the combination Shift+MouseWheel for zooming and use Ctrl+LeftButton for panning.

WPF page content not setting to window's size

Please help me....

Set SizeToContent Property of Window to SizeToContent="WidthAndHeight"
SizeToContent

Page1.Xaml.cs:
public Page1()
{
InitializeComponent();
this.SizeToContent = SizeToContent.WidthAndHeight;
}
For more Info, See Window.SizeToContent Property

I don't know why you specified size parameters for rectangle and expect it to fit your page's size. Just remove all these parameters and it will stretch.
<Rectangle Fill="#FFF4F4F5"/>

Get XAML code in WPF

How can I get XAML code of a window as a string, change this string, and upload this string as a xaml-code of window?
For example, I have
<Window x:Class="WpfApplication1.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:WpfApplication1"
mc:Ignorable="d"
Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525">
<Grid>
<ComboBox Margin="0,0,9,38" Name="button1" Height="82" HorizontalAlignment="Right" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" Width="132"></ComboBox>
</Grid>
</Window>
and I want to have this xaml code in the end
<Window x:Class="WpfApplication1.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:WpfApplication1"
mc:Ignorable="d"
Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525">
<Grid>
<ComboBox Margin="0,0,9,38" Name="button1" Height="82" HorizontalAlignment="Right" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" Width="132">
<ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<local:d_dddw_imp_insurance_list />
</DataTemplate>
</ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
</ComboBox>
</Grid>
</Window>

If your using wpf/xaml with c#, visual studio generally compile the xaml code to c#, to be as performant as possible. If you want to have some dynamic XAML, you need to use XamlReader to read xaml and display at "on your own".
Just take a look at: Loading XAML XML through runtime
Than you can change or manipulate the xaml and display the result very easily.
