Extended WPF Toolkit zoombox disable zoom and reset - wpf

I am trying to use the extended toolkit Zoombox in my WPF Application with NET451.
I am using a tabcontrol for navigation and the items are bound to an observablecollection of ContentControls. When i change tab the content is changed but the zoomparameters are not reset. Also i want to disable zooming for certain tabitems. Binding to properties such as scale, minscale and maxscale does not seem to do the trick. My question is, how can i reset/go to home when changing view?
And how can i disable zoom for cetain tabitems?
XAML Looks like:
<Controls:MetroWindow x:Class="Metrotest.MainWindow"
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:Controls="clr-namespace:MahApps.Metro.Controls;assembly=MahApps.Metro"
xmlns:toolkit="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/toolkit"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:Metrotest"
mc:Ignorable="d"
Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525">
<Controls:MetroWindow.Resources>
<BooleanToVisibilityConverter x:Key="BoolToVis" />
</Controls:MetroWindow.Resources>
<Grid>
<Grid.DataContext>
<local:MainViewModel/>
</Grid.DataContext>
<TabControl ItemsSource="{Binding tabitems}">
<TabControl.ContentTemplate>
<ItemContainerTemplate>
<Controls:FlipView
IsBannerEnabled="False"
ItemsSource="{Binding flipviewitems}" >
<Controls:FlipView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<toolkit:Zoombox ZoomOn="Content" x:Name="zoombox" AutoWrapContentWithViewbox="False" >
<ContentControl Content="{Binding flipview.Content}"/>
</toolkit:Zoombox>
</DataTemplate>
</Controls:FlipView.ItemTemplate>
</Controls:FlipView>
</ItemContainerTemplate>
</TabControl.ContentTemplate>
</TabControl>
</Grid>
</Controls:MetroWindow>

ViewModel location into sub-folder (XAML, namespace)

Into MainWindow.xaml I have:
<Window x:Class="LayoutMVVM.MainWindow"
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"
ResizeMode="NoResize"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:LayoutMVVM"
xmlns:veiwmodels="clr-namespace:LayoutMVVM.ViewModels"
xmlns:views="clr-namespace:LayoutMVVM.Views"
Title="Layout" Height="750" Width="650">
Into Windows.Resources I'm binding dataContext:
<Window.Resources>
<DataTemplate x:Name="SettingsTemp" DataType="{x:Type veiwmodels:SettingsModel}">
<views:SettingsView DataContext="{Binding}" />
</DataTemplate>
</Window.Resources>
But when my other model and view is located into sub-folder as below:
I can't do:
<DataTemplate x:Name="OpenTemp" DataType="{x:Type ViewModels:Open.OpenModel}">
<views:Open.OpenView DataContext="{Binding}" />
</DataTemplate>
or LayoutMVVM.ViewModels.Open.OpenModel
or LayoutMVVM/ViewModels/Open/OpenModel
You should add new one in header of control:
xmlns:veiwmodelsOpen="clr-namespace:LayoutMVVM.ViewModels.Open
or you can set namespace of OpenModel to LayoutMVVM.ViewModels (not LayoutMVVM.ViewModels.Open).
There is no other way, I think.

Don't understand why the user control we've written doesn't show up in a ModernWindow but does in a window

We're working on a WPF app, using the ModernUI for WPF. And we're also using MVVM Light. We've written some user controls which we intend to bring up in separate windows. Each of the windows are ModernUI's ModernWindow. Whenever we try to bring them up, nothing is shown in the ModernWindow. Out of frustration I thought I'd try doing the same thing in a plain old WPF window. Works perfectly each time. I don't know why it works in a regular WPF window but doesn't work in a ModernWindow. What is wrong???
Here's the XAML for the plain old window:
<Window x:Class="CoreFramework.BozoWindow"
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:view="clr-namespace:CoreFramework.View"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:CoreFramework"
mc:Ignorable="d"
Title="Bozo Window" Height="300" Width="300">
<ContentControl Content="{Binding ProductList, Source={StaticResource Locator}}"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
VerticalAlignment="Stretch" />
And here's the XAML for the ModernWindow:
<mui:ModernWindow x:Class="CoreFramework.DataViewWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:mui="http://firstfloorsoftware.com/ModernUI"
xmlns:vm="clr-namespace:CoreFramework.ViewModel"
xmlns:view="clr-namespace:CoreFramework.View"
xmlns:content="clr-namespace:CoreFramework"
Title="BOTS"
ShowInTaskbar="True"
Closing="ModernWindow_Closing">
<ContentControl Content="{Binding Path=ProductList, Source={StaticResource Locator}}"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
VerticalAlignment="Stretch" />
One approach you could use is adding Menu links which is built into the Modern UI framework:
<mui:ModernWindow x:Class="ExampleApp.ExampleWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:mui="http://firstfloorsoftware.com/ModernUI"
xmlns:i="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/2010/interactivity"
Title="Scrum Manager" IsTitleVisible="True" ContentSource="/Views/DefaultUserControl.xaml"
x:Name="mainWindow" MenuLinkGroups="{Binding Groups}"
WindowStartupLocation="CenterScreen" WindowState="Maximized">
<i:Interaction.Triggers>
</i:Interaction.Triggers>
<mui:ModernWindow.TitleLinks>
<mui:Link DisplayName="settings" Source="/Views/SettingsWindow.xaml" />
<mui:Link DisplayName="Sign out" Source="/Infrastructure/Logout.xaml" />
</mui:ModernWindow.TitleLinks>
When a link is clicked, it opens up the 'Source' which would be UserControl xaml files.

WPF MVVM disable focus on ContentControl (with the Tab key)

I have a window with a ContentControl binding:
<ContentControl Content="{Binding CurrentViewModel}" />
I also have an empty user control binds to the ContentControl:
<UserControl x:Class="UserControl1"
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"
mc:Ignorable="d"
d:DesignHeight="300" d:DesignWidth="300">
<Grid>
</Grid>
</UserControl>
When I run and press the tab keyboard I get a dotted rectangle around the content control. How can I disable this?
I tried using Focusable="False" and FocusVisualStyle="{x:Null}" without success...
Have you tried setting IsTabStop="False", for example...
<ContentControl Height="200" Width="200" IsTabStop="False">
<ContentControl.Content>
<TextBox/>
</ContentControl.Content>
</ContentControl>
and I would suggest you combine it with this trick:
Loaded += (sender, e) =>
MoveFocus(new TraversalRequest(FocusNavigationDirection.Next));
from the answer to this question: WPF and initial focus
Override the ContentControl Style and add property FocusVisualStyle as null and implement by using style property
<ContentControl Height="200" Width="200" FocusVisualStyle="{x:Null}">
<ContentControl.Content>
<local:UserControl1/>
</ContentControl.Content>
</ContentControl>

how stretch user control in tab control item

Hi I try solve how stretch user control width / height which is active in tab control to tab control width / height.
I use caliburn micro.
I create some user control. Here is it:
<UserControl x:Class="Spirit.Views.TabChatView"
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:Micro="clr-namespace:Caliburn.Micro;assembly=Caliburn.Micro"
xmlns:Controls="clr-namespace:Spirit.Controls" mc:Ignorable="d"
Name="ChatWindow"
Background="{StaticResource LightGrayBackground}"
Height="545" Width="680">[...]</UserControl>
This user control is active in shell, shell declaration is here.
<Window x:Class="Spirit.Views.ChatShellView"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:cal="clr-namespace:Caliburn.Micro;assembly=Caliburn.Micro"
Title="ChatShellView" Height="300" Width="300">
<DockPanel>
<Button x:Name="OpenTab"
Content="Open Tab"
DockPanel.Dock="Top" />
<TabControl x:Name="Items">
<TabControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding DisplayName}" />
<Button Content="X"
cal:Message.Attach="CloseItem($dataContext)" />
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</TabControl.ItemTemplate>
</TabControl>
</DockPanel>
</Window>
Result if some user constrol is active in this shell you can see on this image:
I would like stretch user control on maximum tab control witdh / height.
Remove Height="545" Width="680" in UserControl definition

How can I display my user control in the MainWindow?

I'm trying to build a small MVVM test application, but can't really figure how to display my user control in the MainWindow.
My Solution Explorer:
I got a resource dictionary:
<ResourceDictionary
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:vm="clr-namespace:MVVM.ViewModel"
xmlns:vw="clr-namespace:MVVM.View">
<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type vm:ViewModel}">
<vw:View />
</DataTemplate>
</ResourceDictionary>
I got my view:
<UserControl x:Class="MVVM.View.View"
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"
mc:Ignorable="d"
d:DesignHeight="300" d:DesignWidth="300">
<UserControl.Resources>
<DataTemplate x:Key="PersonTemplate">
<StackPanel>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding FirstName}" />
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</UserControl.Resources>
<ListBox ItemsSource="{Binding Path=Persons}"
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource PersonTemplate}" />
</UserControl>
and My MainWindow
<Window x:Class="MVVM.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:vm="clr-namespace:MVVM.ViewModel"
Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525">
<Window.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary Source="MainWindowResources.xaml" />
</Window.Resources>
<Grid>
</Grid>
</Window>
The most obvious and easiest way is to add the ContentControl element:
<Grid>
<ContentControl x:Name="mainContentControl" />
</Grid>
And after that set the Content property of this control to your view model, and the corresponding view will be loaded and applied automatically:
this.mainContentControl.Content = new ViewModel.ViewModel();
But I would prefer to use another way without datatemplates:
<Grid>
<vw:View x:Name="mainView"/>
</Grid>
this.mainView.DataContext = new ViewModel.ViewModel();
Build your VS2010 solution, then, go to your MainWindow's XAML.
On the left, there is a toolbar with button "Toolbox"
Open it, it contains all the possible WPF controls you could add to your UI
Your UserControl should appear on top of the list (in a category probably named "MVVM Controls"), just drag&drop it to your UI :)
