I'm using DXRibbonwindow like this:
<dxr:DXRibbonWindow x:Class="MyNameSpace.MyRibbonWindow"
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:dxn="http://schemas.devexpress.com/winfx/2008/xaml/navbar"
xmlns:dxb="http://schemas.devexpress.com/winfx/2008/xaml/bars"
xmlns:dxd="http://schemas.devexpress.com/winfx/2008/xaml/docking"
xmlns:dxlc="http://schemas.devexpress.com/winfx/2008/xaml/layoutcontrol"
xmlns:dxr="http://schemas.devexpress.com/winfx/2008/xaml/ribbon"
xmlns:dxmvvm="http://schemas.devexpress.com/winfx/2008/xaml/mvvm"
SnapsToDevicePixels="True"
WindowStartupLocation="CenterScreen" WindowState="Maximized"
Title="title">
<Grid>
...
</Grid>
</dxr:DXRibbonWindow>
I want the title to be in the middle of the window's titlebar, but it doesn't, how can i make it? I'm using DevExpress 14.2.5 .
Override default control template using Visual Studio Blend or like it's explained here
I would recommend to use Blend see an example and the difference blend and VS editors
This problem occured in version 14.5 of DEVExpress, I upgrade its version to the newest 17.1 then the problem has been solved, thanks for the DevExpress developer.

I am trying implementing an addin for SparxEA with the MVVM Light. One thing that I found interesting is seeing “live” data in a window as is mentioned in the course of MVVM Light. So, I would like to do the same. As I have Class Library project I can’t use App.XAML.
In XAML I have this code:
<Window x:Class="GoatJira.View.About"
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:GoatJira.View"
xmlns:viewmodel="clr-namespace:GoatJira.ViewModel"
mc:Ignorable="d"
Title="{Binding Path=AboutTitle}" Height="322.613" Width="573.608" ResizeMode="NoResize" ShowInTaskbar="False" WindowStartupLocation="CenterScreen" Initialized="Window_Initialized"
DataContext="{Binding Source={StaticResource ResourceKey=AboutData}}"
>
<Window.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary>
<viewmodel:AboutViewModel x:Key="AboutData"/>
</ResourceDictionary>
</Window.Resources>
…
This perfectly works within Visual Studio IDE. When I run the app and want to instantiate the window, I obtain this exception (translated from Czech): Source marked as AboutData was not found. Names of sources are case sensitive.
When I remove the 10th line with DataContext, I can’t see the bind data within the VS, on the other hand, application works fine when I assign the DataContext in code. My understanding is, that there is a way when it works in VS and in running app without changing anything.
Do you have any idea what I am doing wrong?
If needed, the whole code is at https://github.com/SlavekRydval/GoatJira.
What happens if you move the DataContext to after the resource section i.e.
<Window blah=for>
<Window.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary>
<viewmodel:AboutViewModel x:Key="AboutData"/>
</ResourceDictionary>
</Window.Resources>
<Window.DataContext>
<StaticResourceExtension ResourceKey="AboutData"/>
</Window.DataContext>
I have what is as yet a very minimal (just started) WPF app that uses Bing Maps. This is all there is to it so far:
<Window x:Class="DataMapper.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:m="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Maps.MapControl.WPF;assembly=Microsoft.Maps.MapControl.WPF"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="Data Mapper" Height="532" Width="798" WindowStartupLocation="CenterScreen" >
<Grid>
<m:Map x:Name="dataMapper" ZoomLevel="10" CredentialsProvider="MyKeyWhichWorksInWindows8Apps" Mode="Aerial" ></m:Map>
</Grid>
</Window>
Yet, when I run it does display a map (very faintly, I might add), but it is unresponsive/hangs. I had to Ctrl+Alt+Delete to get it to shut down.
Try using the updated WPF control which has a bunch of bug fixes: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=27165
There is also a Nuget package available now: https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Maps.MapControl.WPF/1.0.0.3
I want to create a metro style application, I did some researches and I found lots of articles and tutorials about that.
But I still need a clear comparison between Modern UI for WPF , Elysium and MahApps.
Testing all of them takes too much time ! I need to learn bout each one's features to decide with which one to start.
Thanks,
first : Download the WPF Shell Integration Library Here
then use this XML Code :
<Window x:Class="MyLibrary.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:shell="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation/shell"
Title="MainWindow"
WindowStyle="SingleBorderWindow"
ResizeMode="CanResizeWithGrip"
mc:Ignorable="d"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
d:DesignHeight="449"
d:DesignWidth="677"
Foreground="White"
removed="Black">
<shell:WindowChrome.WindowChrome>
<shell:WindowChrome CaptionHeight="35"
GlassFrameThickness="0,0,0,1"
ResizeBorderThickness="5" />
</shell:WindowChrome.WindowChrome>
<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot">
</Grid>
</Window>
(note, you need to have referenced Microsoft.Windows.Shell)
This is really the Best way to do that.. It will work on all windows versions.
Edit:
if you want to add Caption Buttons on the top of the window add this XAML code to any control at the top: (button as example)
<button shell:WindowChrome.IsHitTestVisibleInChrome="True"/>
I´m using the librariay Extended WPF Toolkit
https://wpftoolkit.codeplex.com/
Is it possible to resize a ChildWindow like a ordinary Window?
The documentation shows some properties that seem to be related, but they are not accessible via xaml. https://wpftoolkit.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=ChildWindow
This is the example that I´m trying:
<Window x:Class="WpfApplication1.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:WpfApplication1"
xmlns:xctk="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/toolkit"
xmlns:xcad="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/avalondock"
xmlns:s="clr-namespace:System;assembly=mscorlib">
<xctk:WindowContainer>
<xctk:ChildWindow WindowBackground="Blue"
Left="75"
Top="50"
Width="275"
Height="125"
WindowState="Open" Canvas.Top="52">
<TextBlock Text="This is a Child Window" Padding="10"/>
</xctk:ChildWindow>
</xctk:WindowContainer>
</Window>
It appears as though the Resize functionality is only available in the Plus Edition of the software, the documentation can be found at the link below.
Based on the link you provided, it looks like you are using the same version as I am, which is the free one.

Kind of disappointing, we don't utilize the toolkit enough to warrant the cost.
I want to make my usercontrol with yellow background while designing. After design it should stay transparent.
I've tried to use the "Ignore" flag but could not catch how it works.
<UserControl x:Class="Abnehmen_Standard.ucRoundButton"
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"
mc:Ignorable="d"
d:DesignHeight="84" d:DesignWidth="84"
d:Background="Yellow"
Last row does not work.
Can you advice me?
This will work if you are using Expression blend. As you can see in your mark up
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
"d" is used only for expression blend not for visual studio.
Look at this article if you want to do the same for visual studio, you will have to do some coding for this.
