• WPF trick #2 - Alternate background colors for ListView rows

  Prior the .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 was released, if you want to set alternate background colors for ListView rows you needed to write some kind Converter which returnes some kind of Brush. IF you have SP1 installed accomplishing the same functionality is rather trivial job. Here are the code snippets: (defining the style) <Style x:Key="CustomListViewItemStyle" TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}"> <Style.Triggers> <Trigger Property="ItemsControl.AlternationIndex" Value="0"> <Setter Property="Background" Value="#2C2C2C"></Setter> </Trigger> <Trigger Property="ItemsControl.AlternationIndex" Value="1"> <Setter Property="Background" Value="#262626"></Setter> </Trigger> </Style.Triggers> </Style> (using the defined style) <ListView ItemContainerStyle="{DynamicResource CustomListViewItemStyle}" AlternationCount="2"> ... </ListView> Posted lis 21 2008, 04:22 by boris.sevo with 29 comment(s) Filed under: WPF

• WPF trick #1 - Hyperlink control

  Today I needed to create a simple grid which will hold some text information about some products and a few Hyperlink controls which when clicked need to display detailed information about particular product. On my big surprise WPF doesn't have Hyperlink control. This is really weird, but the solution is very simple. All you need to do is to use System.Windows.Documents.Hyperlink in a combination with TextBlock control. XAML code for creating Hyperlink 'control' is then something like this: <TextBlock> <Hyperlink> <TextBlock Text="Some text"> </Hyperlink> </TextBlock> Posted lis 21 2008, 10:13 by boris.sevo with 14 comment(s) Filed under: WPF
