I'am learning wpf. As a part of learning I'm converting a winforms application into a wpf application using mvvm.
In winforms I just dragged and droped. After that I aligned based on my requirement.
But in WPF when i drag and drop a default grid is wrapping the components and I'm facing great difficulty in aligning the components.
On learning the tutorials on wpf https://www.tutorialspoint.com/wpf/wpf_layouts.htm
I tried to work with but I don't know which is suitable for my UI.
I want to create UI in wpf as below winform
I have used grid and stackpanel but I have issue with alignment. In grid I have issue with adding new elements in the existing row. In stackpanel I face issue with spacing between the components and aligning the compnent.
Can anyone help me on which panel to use for the above kind of UI.
In general you don't use editors for WPF, you edit the layout XAML by hand and use the visualizer as a guide to show whether or not you've done it right. The Visual Studio editor does let you do things like basic layout, but as soon as you start using ControlTemplates/DataTemplates/Behaviours etc you'll quickly find that it's useless (and believe me, that moment will come much sooner than you think). If you really want to use a graphical editor then Microsoft Blend is your best bet, but even that is generally designed for non-programmers. In fact, in the 10+ years I've been a professional WPF contractor I've yet to encounter a single company that actually uses Blend...or indeed any other GUI-driven XAML editor...for their product development.
I was using windows form to create a game but I concluded that the performance is just too bad. So I decided to work with Monogame.
The thing is that I can't use the tools(picturebox, bitmaps, menus etc..) with monogame so my question is : Can I draw all the things that are normally drawn in monogame in a picturebox in Windows Forms to get the drawing performance of Monogame but still being able to use everything Windows Forms has to offer?
I can't find any information about this topic on the Internet, so I would really appreciate if someone can help me out!
Take a look at embedding in a winform.

Recently I started a project in WinForms. I'm coming from WPF background and I find some things new to me. For example every time I want to change a property of WinForms control I have to scroll up and down to find it.
It drives me mad. I would rather type first few letters of looked up property and edit it in a couple of seconds. Is there a way to speed up this annoying process?
There is no easy way to filter properties of control. I know how you feel, as I switch between WPF and WinForms from project to project. But you can always either Categorize them or sort them alphabetically... I am sure you'll get used to it eventually, but you have to understand though, Windows Forms are not as "innovative" as WPF is. Therefore you'll see some things are rather more "traditional" than WPF in WinForms! Sorry mate :)
There is a VS Extension called RapidDesign. It is a payed project but I think it's worth the price. It does exactly what you need and even more. (Note!!! I am not connected in anyway with the author/company that develops this product)
https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/c820e3a0-add2-4a43-943c-029e296ab00d
You can download the extension directly from VisualStudio galery or you can install it from inside VS by going to Tools->Extensions And Updates...->Online->and search for RapidDesign
I'm working on an existing WinForms application and I am having some weird issues with Infragistics controls in a WinForms app.
When I open a form or usercontrol in the project that has Infragistics controls on it, it looks like
this http://sdrv.ms/S7gvmS
I cannot access any of the controls in the design surface. Clicking does nothing. And, all of the controls appear in the lower area.
So I created a new test solution and dropped some Infragisstics controls on and got this http://sdrv.ms/SRdo2y
Anyone know what's going on?
When I've run in to similar issues before it's tended to be a license or version problem, the Infragistics libraries contain code stopping them working at design-time if a valid license isn't installed. To resolve this, I'd first recommend deleting all of the *.licx files in your solution. These can be easily corrupted especially if you're using source control and should be regenerated correctly when you go in at design time. If that fails, then I'd try uninstalling and reinstalling Infragistics ensuring the version installed matches those of your projects' reference.
P.S. Realise this is far too late to help the original poster but hopefully will help people coming across similar issues in the future.
This happens when Visual Studio cannot find the Design assembly. The components refer to a designer and if Visual Studio cannot find the designer, it makes the assumption that the object is a component instead of a control and places it in the system tray.
Typically, this indicates that something when wrong with your installation of the components, so the usual solution is to re-install.
I'm working on some multi-touch Surface computers for my workplace (mainly for meetings and presentation), and not being wholly familiar with WPF, I was wondering if I might be able to put some Windows Forms in a Surface project so that several users could ostensibly use programs at the same time.
Is this possible?
I don't understand the reason why you want to include windows forms into a WPF project, but if that's all you want to do, check out this. WindowsFormsHost Class is used to manage WinForms things in WPF.
Please mark my reply as answer if it solves your problem.
