I want to use a background Image in gridview item.
I have tried this :
< <GridView x:Name="mainGrid" Margin="24.079,143,461.133,-533.627" SelectionChanged="gridSelection" RenderTransformOrigin="0.5,0.5" UseLayoutRounding="False" d:LayoutRounding="Auto" Height="530.627" VerticalAlignment="Top" Background="White" Grid.Column="1" >
<GridView.ItemContainerTransitions>
<TransitionCollection>
<EntranceThemeTransition />
<RepositionThemeTransition />
<ContentThemeTransition HorizontalOffset="200"/>
</TransitionCollection>
</GridView.ItemContainerTransitions>
<GridView.RenderTransform>
<CompositeTransform SkewX="0.186" TranslateX="0.743"/>
</GridView.RenderTransform>
<GridViewItem Width="250" Height="250" Style="{StaticResource gridBackground}" ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Visible" Margin="0" >
</GridViewItem>
<GridViewItem Width="250" Height="250" Content="Send a test" Margin="0" Background="#FF3988BF" />
<GridViewItem Width="250" Height="250" Content="Edit a Newsletter" Background="#FF3988BF" />
<GridViewItem Width="250" Height="250" Content="Lists Contacts" Margin="0" Background="#FF3988BF" />
<GridViewItem Width="250" Height="250" Content="Images" Background="#FF3988BF" />
<GridViewItem Width="250" Height="250" Content="Send to Mailinglist" Background="#FF3988BF" />
</GridView> >
with this style:
<Style TargetType="GridViewItem" x:Key="gridBackground">
<Setter Property="Background">
<Setter.Value>
<ImageBrush ImageSource="../Assets/create.png"/>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
The problem is that image is not showing as grid view item. What should I do?

How can I make the ListView/Layout scroller to behave like modern layout like in android or windows 10. Currently the ListView scrollbar only applies to the ListView itself. I want the scroller to scroll the whole layout including the search bar in XAML.
I want also the ListView Items added to increment to the overall height of the ListView to achieve the effect.
Any available ways to do it with Native wpf xaml (No frameworks/dlls, just pure xaml/c#)

Put your ListView, search bar, and whatever else you want to scroll inside of a ScrollViewer.
I have a DataGrid wrapped in a Grid<-StackPanel and my problem is when I resize the window, DataGrid won't stretch and it's just adding blank space at the end.
I have tried binding and VerticalAlignment="Stretch" but to luck.

If you put a control inside a StackPanel it will be take only the space it need to be visualised, so it will not stretch.
For a dynamic view I almost always use a grid with row and column definitions.
I have a WPF Application with a Ribbon Control. I want to add a ComboBox, to show the logged in user next to the help button. But when I try to add the ComboBox, it is created as a Tab.
<Grid>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="Auto"/>
<RowDefinition></RowDefinition>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Ribbon x:Name="RibbonWin" SelectedIndex="0" Margin="0,0,0,113">
<Ribbon.HelpPaneContent>
<RibbonButton SmallImageSource="Images\help.png"></RibbonButton>
</Ribbon.HelpPaneContent>
<RibbonComboBox>
<ComboBoxItem Content="Test1"/>
</RibbonComboBox>
<RibbonTab Header="Home" KeyTip="H" Margin="0,0,0,-1" >
<RibbonGroup x:Name="ClipboardGroup" Header="Clipboard">
<RibbonMenuButton LargeImageSource="Images\paste.jpg" Label="Paste" KeyTip="V">
<RibbonMenuItem ImageSource="Images\paste.jpg" Header="Keep Text Only" KeyTip="T"/>
<RibbonMenuItem ImageSource="Images\paste.jpg" Header="Paste Special..." KeyTip="S"/>
</RibbonMenuButton>
<RibbonButton SmallImageSource="Images\cut.jpg" Label="Cut" KeyTip="X" />
<RibbonButton SmallImageSource="Images\copy.jpg" Label="Copy" KeyTip="C" />
</RibbonGroup>
<RibbonGroup x:Name="Questions" Header="Questions And Answers">
<RibbonMenuButton LargeImageSource="Images\Question.jpg" Label="Questions" KeyTip="V">
<RibbonMenuItem ImageSource="Images\paste.jpg" Header="Add Question" KeyTip="T"/>
<RibbonMenuItem ImageSource="Images\paste.jpg" Header="Paste Special..." KeyTip="S"/>
</RibbonMenuButton>
<RibbonButton SmallImageSource="Images\Save.jpg" Label="Save" KeyTip="X" />
<RibbonButton SmallImageSource="Images\Add.jpg" Label="Add" KeyTip="C" />
</RibbonGroup>
</RibbonTab>
<RibbonTab Header="Insert" KeyTip="I">
</RibbonTab>
<RibbonTab Header="PageLayout" KeyTip="L">
</RibbonTab>
</Ribbon>
</Grid>
Also is there a way to remove the the Application Menu ComboBox on the left that is created by default.
Put a RibbonApplicationMenu into the ApplicationMenu-property and set its Visibility to 'Collapsed'. This will not remove the application menu, but at least it is not longer visible. There is not other way to hide it.
The ComboBox must be inserted into a RibbonTab, so a RibbonTab will be created implicitly if you do not specify anyone.
The following example demonstrates how to hide the application menu and insert a combo box:
<Ribbon>
<Ribbon.ApplicationMenu>
<RibbonApplicationMenu Visibility="Collapsed"></RibbonApplicationMenu>
</Ribbon.ApplicationMenu>
<RibbonTab>
<RibbonGroup>
<RibbonComboBox></RibbonComboBox>
</RibbonGroup>
</RibbonTab>
</Ribbon>

I have a WPF listbox and have updated the list item data template to have essentially a 3 column layout.
I would like:
|status color|name| buttons|
These are probably CSS terms but I want to float the status color and name to the left, which I've done, then I would like the buttons to be floated to the right, and always stay to the right even as the window gets wider.
I feel like I'm so close, the list item widths grow when the window gets wider, all I feel I have to do is tell the buttons to float right but can't figure out how. I've tried stack panels, a grid with a auto|*|auto column layout (With a stretch on the last column) and I've tried a dockpanel.

And an image of what I'm trying to achieve:
The problem is at the first level below DataTemplate, here:
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch">
By its nature a StackPanel will align items to the left, so it's not a layout that's well suited to what you want to do. Instead try using a Grid with two columns, giving the left column Width=* and the right Width=Auto.
<ListBox HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch">
<ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<StackPanel Grid.Column="0" Orientation="Vertical">
...
</StackPanel>
<DockPanel Grid.Column="1" VerticalAlignment="Center">
...
</DockPanel>
</Grid>
<DataTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<ListBox>
In your ItemContainerStyle, set the HorizontalAlignment to Stretch. I believe it is Left by default, which may be causing the Grid or StackPanel or whatever container you use to collapse.
