Adding Missing WPF Controls To The Toolbox The other day I was teaching a WPF course when one of the students asked me where is the “Line” shape in the Visual Studio Toolbox. I approach to show him, only to find out that this control is indeed missing from the Visual Studio 2010 Toolbox. Even if you search the alleged “All WPF Controls” tab.. After a quick check I’ve found that this is not the only shape missing. The missing shapes are: Line, Path, Polygon, Polyline. And who knows which other c... (more)

After returning from the Adobe MAX 2010 conference a couple of weeks ago, I finally found some time this week to play with all the cool stuff learned at Adobe MAX 2010. Of course, the whole theme of the conference was “Multi Screen Development”, this means that this post will be about developing a mobile application with Flex 4.5 (“Hero”), Flash Builder Burrito and a .Net webservice which contacts the Adventureworks database using the latest version of the Entity Framework. The application runs on Androi... (more)

Paging SQL Server CE 3.5 results on a WPF DataGrid using Entity Framework - .NET Development - Gal Ratner

galratner 935 days, 13 hours, 7 minutes ago

SQL Server Compact 3.5 is an embedded database engine that developers can add to Windows Desktop and mobile applications. It runs as a part of the app and provides an internal data store. It is similar to SQLite and is available from Visual Studio. Unfortunately SQL Server Compact 3.5 has a few limitations, one of them being the lack of support for SKIP expressions in paging queries when it is used with the Entity Framework. In this blog post I am going to describe a workaround I used for a WPF applic... (more)

Windows Phone 7 & “native” apps, the missing link! - Chris Walsh

Ok, take a deep breath, let it sink in, are you ready? What I discovered today was some FUNKY code that Samsung had created to set the Network properties of a Windows Phone 7 handset. Taking a peek under the skirt, I noticed something unreal. The application has unmanaged DLL’s inside the XAP file!!! Ok, you’re thinking, so what, this isn’t anything special. All they’ve done is add them manually into the project as a content build action. True, they have done that, but what’s next is even more UN... (more)

Performance is the area that we probably spend the most time on in all our apps. Building apps on the phone is just way different than building desktop apps. Things that might be really minor optimizations on a desktop Silverlight can really make a difference on desktop Silverlight apps. Developing on the phone is an issue of economics where processing power is a scarce resource. You have to be conscious of the tradeoffs of using things like binding, layout controls, de... (more)

Windows Phone 7 - Dynamically load XAML - Christoph's Blog

Dustin 968 days, 17 hours, 13 minutes ago

Sometimes it is necessary to load an element like a shape dynamically from an file, resource or directly from a string into the corresponding API classes. In Silverlight for Windows Phone 7 this can be done with the use of the XamlReader Class. This class can be found in the System.Windows.Markup namespace. With the use of this class it’s very easy to create in memory representations of XAML object you created in tools like expression blend. In my example I created an ellipsis with a gradient fill and ... (more)

Blend Bits 15: The Data Store - Mike Taulty

iftekharahmedamit 969 days, 11 hours, 37 minutes ago

There’s lots of data features in Blend to provide food for future posts but this post is about the data store that showed up in Blend 4. This is a fairly simple idea and I suspect that I’d use it more in the realm of a SketchFlow application than I would in a real application as I tend to see it as a way for a designer to store something outside of the underlying object model that they’re data-bound to and I’m not sure I’d want that to happen in a real application. Say I’m sketching a simple login scre... (more)
