Inner ellipse is not in centre position - wpf

I need to customise the RadioButton with animation and I modified inner ellipse for an animation. But the inner ellipse is not loaded in Centre position, any solution for this?
I have used the style and the sample code is given below. I have just used the DoubleAnimation for the inner ellipse.

Thanks in Advance.

Your parent Grid container is 13, and your ellipse is at size is 8.
Since 13 / 8 = 1.625, the spacing can not be equal to center the inner ellipse when it makes the measure()/arrange() pass to set it horizontal center -- so the offset would be expected.
So your answer is just simple math, if you want it to center correctly change your Grid parent container size to something divisible like Height="12" Width="12" and it will be centered as you require.
Hope this helps, cheers!

Thank chris, your solution is not working, where its working fine after changing to 14 for Grid and 8 for Ellipse. Still I cant understand the exact reason.

Highlight selected bar in different color in wpf

To do this in the MVVM pattern I would create a ViewModel class for your ColumnDataPoint.
This ViewModel contains a bool property e.g. called IsActive.
You can then bind the bar's DataContext to that ViewModel and in your style you can set a DataTrigger bound to that property.
To change that property you can create a command in your ViewModel which will be executed when clicking the bar
Here is a small example:
<Rectangle Fill="SteelBlue"
DataContext="{Binding YourViewModel}">
<Rectangle.Style>
<Style TargetType="Rectangle">
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding IsActive}" Value="true">
<Setter Property="Stroke" Value="Chartreuse"/>
<Setter Property="StrokeThickness" Value="5"/>
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</Rectangle.Style>
<i:Interaction.Triggers>
<i:EventTrigger EventName="MouseLeftButtonUp">
<command:EventToCommand Command="{Binding ClickingBarCommand}"/>
</i:EventTrigger>
</i:Interaction.Triggers>
</Rectangle>
To use the "i" and "command" namespace you have to add
xmlns:i="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Interactivity;assembly=System.Windows.Interactivity"
xmlns:command="http://www.galasoft.ch/mvvmlight"
Hopefully this was helpful to you

WPF XAML Animation property path not working

I'm trying to animate the content of a metro styled button.
My problem is that the content of the button does not change color.
The foreground color does not change.
Here's my button's style:
<Style x:Key="MetroButtonStyle"
TargetType="Button">
<Setter Property="MinWidth"
Value="40"/>
<Setter Property="Width"
Value="100"/>
<Setter Property="MinHeight"

<Setter Property="HorizontalAlignment"

<Setter Property="Foreground"

<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>

</VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical"

</Grid>
<TextBlock x:Name="LabelText"

FontSize="12"
Text="{TemplateBinding Tag}"
Foreground="{TemplateBinding Foreground}"/>
</StackPanel>
</Border>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
Here's is how i use it.
This does not works:
<Button Style="{StaticResource MetroButtonStyle}"
Tag="Blah">
<TextBlock Text="XXX"/>
</Button>
This works:
<Button Style="{StaticResource MetroButtonStyle}"
Tag="Blah"
Content="XXX"/>
You have
Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Control.Foreground).(SolidColorBrush.Color)"
Storyboard.TargetName="EllipseInnerContent"
in your animations, where EllipseInnerContent is a ContentPresenter and there's no Foreground property on ContentPresenter.
Change it to ContentControl.
Also, when putting a TextBlock as a content of a control, it will inherit the foreground of the page\user control that it's part of. Use DataTemplate instead to have the TextBlock created for you and then it will inherit the foreground from the button.

WP7 Toggle Switch Problem?

The toggle switch style, take colors from the theme, the Dark & White, but I want to have my own background color, and in this case, the style of the switch is not good
so in the first image, the style is the Light, and it's not suitable
In the second, it's dark, baad
I want it like the third "Edited by paint"
any way to do that ?!
You can create your own style for ToggleSwitch by editing the default
style of a ToggleSwitch.
You ll get the default style from Here
Here is the style for ToggleSwitch that i edited and created a
ToggleSwitch like this
<Style x:Key="ToggleSwitchCustomStyle" TargetType="ToggleSwitch">
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{StaticResource ToggleSwitchForegroundThemeBrush}"/>

Silverlight ListBox Selection is not shown

My individual ListBox has two different ItemTemplates - which gone be chosen by a TemplateSelector.
This works fine and i have two different ItemTmplates shown up on the screen.
But what i dont have instead is a Selection. So i can't select an Item in the ListBox. With the Keyboard it works and you can select one.
Here is what my ContainserStyle looks like:
<Style x:Key="ListBoxItemStyleMain" TargetType="ListBoxItem">
<Setter Property="Padding" Value="5" />
<Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Left" />

So - as you can see, i have a Selected-State defined.
It's all default styling and Templating - except for the colors.
Thanks in any advice :)
regards
Mike
Found it out - it's really unclear why i don't get a selection. Because when i insert some Items with Content (which i haven't got at the moment), then the selection works fine.
The Selection State works anyway - but you have to click precisely on the Focus Border :)

How to turn off animations in WPF Toolkit charts

Is there a way to turn off the animations in Xaml directly? The animations are really sluggish as my chart has many points.
i have downloaded the latest source code at http://wpf.codeplex.com/SourceControl/list/changesets
my idea is, to remove the animation by changing the style for the different chart series (chart points, DataPointStyle)
example for charting:PieDataPoint
try to remove the animation for the shown data and take your own style with a given key (x:key="myStyle" -> DataPointStyle="{StaticResource myStyle}")
and remove Opacity="0" at <Grid x:Name="Root" Opacity="0">
remove this visual state group from your style
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="RevealStates">
<VisualStateGroup.Transitions>
<VisualTransition GeneratedDuration="0:0:0.5" />
</VisualStateGroup.Transitions>
<VisualState x:Name="Shown">
<Storyboard>
<DoubleAnimation Storyboard.TargetName="Root" Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity" To="1" Duration="0" />
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="Hidden">
<Storyboard>
<DoubleAnimation Storyboard.TargetName="Root" Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity" To="0" Duration="0" />
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
</VisualStateGroup>
EDIT
This is the changed style.
<!-- charting:PieDataPoint -->
<Style TargetType="charting:PieDataPoint">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Orange" />
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="White" />
<Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="1" />
<Setter Property="IsTabStop" Value="False" />
<Setter Property="RatioStringFormat" Value="{}{0:p2}" />
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="charting:PieDataPoint">
<Grid x:Name="Root" Opacity="0">
<VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="CommonStates">
<VisualStateGroup.Transitions>
<VisualTransition GeneratedDuration="0:0:0.1" />
</VisualStateGroup.Transitions>
<VisualState x:Name="Normal" />
<VisualState x:Name="MouseOver">
<Storyboard>
<DoubleAnimation Storyboard.TargetName="MouseOverHighlight" Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity" To="0.6" Duration="0" />
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
</VisualStateGroup>
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="SelectionStates">
<VisualStateGroup.Transitions>
<VisualTransition GeneratedDuration="0:0:0.1" />
</VisualStateGroup.Transitions>
<VisualState x:Name="Unselected" />
<VisualState x:Name="Selected">
<Storyboard>
<DoubleAnimation Storyboard.TargetName="SelectionHighlight" Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity" To="0.6" Duration="0" />
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
</VisualStateGroup>
</VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<Path x:Name="Slice" Data="{TemplateBinding Geometry}" Fill="{TemplateBinding Background}" Stroke="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}" StrokeMiterLimit="1">
<ToolTipService.ToolTip>
<StackPanel>
<ContentControl Content="{TemplateBinding FormattedDependentValue}" />
<ContentControl Content="{TemplateBinding FormattedRatio}" />
</StackPanel>
</ToolTipService.ToolTip>
</Path>
<Path x:Name="SelectionHighlight" Data="{TemplateBinding GeometrySelection}" Fill="Red" StrokeMiterLimit="1" IsHitTestVisible="False" Opacity="0" />
<Path x:Name="MouseOverHighlight" Data="{TemplateBinding GeometryHighlight}" Fill="White" StrokeMiterLimit="1" IsHitTestVisible="False" Opacity="0" />
</Grid>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
After my first attempt to remove the animation, I wanted to give up, because it has not worked.
But then I looked upon me with the reflector to the source code and have found a way that it still works.
Setting the DataPointStyle unfortunately is not enough, I think it's a bug.
<chartingToolkit:Chart Margin="8">
<chartingToolkit:Chart.Series>
<chartingToolkit:BarSeries x:Name="barSeries"
Title="Experience"
DataPointStyle="{StaticResource myBarStyle}">
</chartingToolkit:BarSeries>
</chartingToolkit:Chart.Series>
</chartingToolkit:Chart>
In the constructor of the control where the chart is included simply execute the following.
this.barSeries.RefreshStyles();
hope this helps
