I have a texbox in binding with a property.
<TextBox Name="txtPrice" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="2" MaxLength="8" TabIndex="1"
Text="{Binding Price, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged, ValidatesOnExceptions=True,
StringFormat= '\{0:#,###.##\}', ConverterCulture=fr-FR}" TextWrapping="Wrap"/>
Private Property _Price As Double
Public Property Price As Double
Get
Return Price
End Get
Set(value As Double)
_Price = Double.Parse(value)
OnPropertyChanged("Price")
End Set
End Property
When I type some chars or the textbox is empty, the button Cmd_Insert must not be enabled, but doesn't work.
Why ? (see Function CanCmd_Insert())
Public ReadOnly Property Cmd_Insert As ICommand
Get
If _Cm_Insert Is Nothing Then
_Cm_Insert = New RelayCommand(AddressOf Cmd_InsertExe, AddressOf CanCmd_Insert)
End If
Return _Cm_Insert
End Get
End Property
Private Sub Cmd_InsertExe()
UPDATE_Price()
End Sub
Private Function CanCmd_Insert() As Boolean
If IsNumeric(Price) = False Then
Return False
Else
Return True
End If
End Function
I added TargetNullValue='' and changed your property to nullable. Refer the below code.
<StackPanel>
<TextBox Name="txtPrice" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="2" MaxLength="8" TabIndex="1"
Text="{Binding Price, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged, TargetNullValue='',
StringFormat= '\{0:#,###.##\}'}" TextWrapping="Wrap" />
<Button Content="Update" Command="{Binding Cmd_Insert }"></Button>

I'm new to WPF/MVVM and have been attempting to bind an observable collection class to a list view, no code behind, just MVVM.
The XAML:
<Window.DataContext>
<local:acLengthCalcVM/>
</Window.DataContext>
<StackPanel>
<GroupBox Header="Section(s) Selected" Margin="3,10,3,10">
<ListView x:Name="lvSections" Margin="0,6,0,2" Height="150" ItemsSource="{Binding SectionsSelected}">
<ListView.View>
<GridView>
<GridViewColumn Header="#" Width="30"/>
<GridViewColumn Header="Reference Tag #" Width="100"/>
<GridViewColumn Header="Section Type" Width="150"/>
<GridViewColumn Header="Section Length" Width="100"/>
</GridView>
</ListView.View>
</ListView>
</GroupBox>
</StackPanel>
The View Model:
Public Class acLengthCalcVM
Implements INotifyPropertyChanged
Dim _sectionsSelected As ObservableCollection(Of acLengthCalcModel) = New ObservableCollection(Of acLengthCalcModel)
Public Event PropertyChanged As PropertyChangedEventHandler Implements INotifyPropertyChanged.PropertyChanged
Public Property SectionsSelected As ObservableCollection(Of acLengthCalcModel)
Get
Return _sectionsSelected
End Get
Set(value As ObservableCollection(Of acLengthCalcModel))
_sectionsSelected = value
NotifyPropertyChanged("SectionsSelected")
End Set
End Property
Private Sub NotifyPropertyChanged(Optional propertyName As String = "")
RaiseEvent PropertyChanged(Me, New PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName))
End Sub
End Class
The Model:
Public Class acLengthCalcModel
Inherits ObservableCollection(Of acLengthCalcData)
Public Sub New()
Add(New acLengthCalcData(1, "n/a", "VTU Frame", 8))
Add(New acLengthCalcData(2, "1.1.01", "Air Conveyor Straight", 118))
End Sub
End Class
Public Class acLengthCalcData
' Constructor for this Class
Public Sub New(serialNum As Integer, refTagNum As String, sectionType As String, sectionLength As Double)
_refTagNum = refTagNum
_sectionLength = sectionLength
_sectionType = sectionType
_serialNum = serialNum
End Sub
' Reference Tag #
Private _refTagNum As String
Public Property RefTagNum As String
Get
Return _refTagNum
End Get
Set(value As String)
_refTagNum = value
End Set
End Property
' Section Length
Private _sectionLength As Double
Public Property SectionLength As Double
Get
Return _sectionLength
End Get
Set(value As Double)
_sectionLength = value
End Set
End Property
' Section Type
Private _sectionType As String
Public Property SectionType As String
Get
Return _sectionType
End Get
Set(value As String)
_sectionType = value
End Set
End Property
' Serial #
Private _serialNum As Integer
Public Property SerialNum As Integer
Get
Return _serialNum
End Get
Set(value As Integer)
_serialNum = value
End Set
End Property
End Class
When I run the code, the list view is created with only its headers, none of the data I initialized in the model constructor shows up.
Any pointers? Thanks.
You should create and return an instance of a acLengthCalcModel in your view model class:
Public Class acLengthCalcVM
Implements INotifyPropertyChanged
Dim _sectionsSelected = New acLengthCalcModel
Public Event PropertyChanged As PropertyChangedEventHandler Implements INotifyPropertyChanged.PropertyChanged
Public Property SectionsSelected As acLengthCalcModel
Get
Return _sectionsSelected
End Get
Set(value As acLengthCalcModel)
_sectionsSelected = value
NotifyPropertyChanged("SectionsSelected")
End Set
End Property
Private Sub NotifyPropertyChanged(Optional propertyName As String = "")
RaiseEvent PropertyChanged(Me, New PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName))
End Sub
End Class
You also need to bind each of the columns to a property of the acLengthCalcData class using the DisplayMemberBinding property:
<ListView x:Name="lvSections" Margin="0,6,0,2" Height="150" ItemsSource="{Binding SectionsSelected}">
<ListView.View>
<GridView>
<GridViewColumn Header="#" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding SerialNum}" Width="30"/>
<GridViewColumn Header="Reference Tag #" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding RefTagNum}" Width="100"/>
<GridViewColumn Header="Section Type" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding SectionType}" Width="150"/>
<GridViewColumn Header="Section Length" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding SectionLength}" Width="100"/>
</GridView>
</ListView.View>
</ListView>
I'm trying to get an image displayed in the list of a combobox based on a bound boolean value. When the image is clicked the boolean value, and thus the image should change.
Here's the xaml:
<ComboBox Name="Combo2" Margin="20,79,20,0" ItemsSource="{Binding}" VerticalAlignment="Top" Height="20">
<ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<Image Name="MyBoolImage" Height="12" Width="12" MouseLeftButtonUp="Image_MouseLeftButtonUp"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding name}" Margin="5,0,0,0" Width="100" />
</StackPanel>
<DataTemplate.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding LightOn}" Value="False">
<Setter TargetName="MyBoolImage" Property="Source" Value="/Images/Exit.png"/>
</DataTrigger>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding LightOn}" Value="True">
<Setter TargetName="MyBoolImage" Property="Source" Value="/Images/Cut.png"/>
</DataTrigger>
</DataTemplate.Triggers>
</DataTemplate>
</ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
</ComboBox>
And the data class:
Class ComboData
Private _LightOn As Boolean
Public Property LightOn As Boolean
Get
Return _LightOn
End Get
Set(value As Boolean)
_LightOn = value
End Set
End Property
Private _name As String
Public Property name As String
Get
Return _name
End Get
Set(value As String)
_name = value
End Set
End Property
Sub New(name_ As String, Light_On As Boolean)
_LightOn = Light_On
_name = name_
End Sub
End Class
loading some test data:
Dim x As New List(Of ComboData)
x.Add(New ComboData("test1a", True))
x.Add(New ComboData("test2a", False))
x.Add(New ComboData("test3a", True))
x.Add(New ComboData("test4a", True))
x.Add(New ComboData("test5a", False))
x.Add(New ComboData("test6a", True))
Combo2.ItemsSource = x
and finally the click event where the magic isn't happening...
Private Sub Image_MouseLeftButtonUp(sender As Object, e As MouseButtonEventArgs)
Dim SelectedComboData As ComboData = TryCast(CType(sender, Image).DataContext, ComboData)
SelectedComboData.LightOn = Not SelectedComboData.LightOn
e.Handled = True
End Sub
The LightOn value is changed as supposed to, even in the "x" (the list of combodata), the value is changed. But the displayed image is not changing.
What am I missing?
Thanks!
Class comboData should implement INotifyPropertyChanged in order to notify UI about its changes..
Class ComboData
Implements INotifyPropertyChanged
Private _LightOn As Boolean
Public Property LightOn As Boolean
Get
Return _LightOn
End Get
Set(value As Boolean)
_LightOn = value

End Property
Private _name As String
Public Property name As String
Get
Return _name
End Get
Set(value As String)
_name = value
OnPropertyChanged("name")
End Set
End Property
Sub New(name_ As String, Light_On As Boolean)
_LightOn = Light_On
_name = name_
End Sub

I am trying to do a binding as with following data formats:
Public Structure ItemBase
Property ID As String
Property Description As String
End Structure
Namespace Classes
Public Class StockEntityClass
Implements INotifyPropertyChanged
#Region "Property Variables"
Property ID As String
Property Namee As String
Property Units As String
Property ContactID As String
Property SetCount As Integer
Property VatOnMargin As Boolean
Property Vat As Double
Property Code As String
Property _ContactNamee As String
#End Region
Public Sub New()
_IDValue = Now.ToString
_NameeValue = ""
_UnitsValue = "Pcs"
_ContactIDValue = ""
_SetCountValue = 0
_VatOnMarginValue = False
_VatValue = 14.5
_CodeValue = ""
_ContactNamee = ""
End Sub
End Class
End Namespace
In my wpf xaml window which is DataContext to Stock Entity variable, I have a combo box that is bound to BindingList(of ItemBase) and the user will select an Item and that ItemID as to get assosiated to StockEntity.ContactID.
Following is the xaml code:
<ComboBox Name="VendorsComboBox" Grid.Row="2" Grid.Column="1" VerticalAlignment="Center" DisplayMemberPath="Description" SelectedItem="{Binding Path=CustomerID}"/>
Following is Binding Code:
Dim Stock As Classes.StockEntityClass
VendorsComboBox.ItemsSource = Contacts.DBAccessFunctions.Get_ContactsByType_BaseList(DataSource, "Vendor")
StockEntityStack.DataContext = Stock
Where StockEntityStack contains the UI part which is datacontext bind to stock variable.
Could you please tell me how to write the xaml databound to it.

I have a datagrid bound to an observable collection. Each item inside of the grid can have multiple detail lines, which are stored in an observable collection property inside of the main object.
The line details are being fetched from a linked server with a slow connection, so I'd like to put a background worker in to update the line details OC, but I get an error saying that the control can't be updated outside of the thread that made it.
What's the best way to do this. The 2 second lag is a bit much.
datagrid xaml:

<DataGridTextColumn Header="RO Number" Width="Auto" Binding="{Binding RONum}" />
<DataGridTemplateColumn x:Name="roDetails" Header="RO Details" Width="*">

You need to update the collection on the UI thread. To do this make sure to pass the data back via the Result property on the DoWorkEventArgs.
In your completed event you can then run through the data via the RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs.Result property and set your ObservableCollection accordingly, all on the UI thread.
If you wanted to avoid the BackgroundWorker you could use the Dispatcher.
ThreadStart start = delegate()
{
// make your calls to the db
Dispatcher.Invoke(DispatcherPriority.Normal,
new Action<object>(UpdateCollection),
new object[] { myData });
};
new Thread(start).Start();
private void UpdateCollection(object data)
{
//iterate your collection and add the data as needed
}
Whatever route you go, the root cause is attempting to access an object created on the UI thread from a differing thread.

' Create the OnPropertyChanged method to raise the event
Protected Sub OnPropertyChanged(ByVal name As String)

RaiseEvent PropertyChanged(Me, New PropertyChangedEventArgs(name))

How I interact with the classes:
Public Function GetBuddyManager() As BuddyManager
Try
Return DirectCast(FindResource("bmBuddyManager"), BuddyManager)
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show("Error getting buddy manager object: " & ex.ToString())
Application.Current.Shutdown()
Return Nothing
End Try
End Function
GetBuddyManager().UpdateOnlineStatus(GetBuddyManager().BuddyCheck(0).Nick, True)
The Binding and grouping work well, the only issue is when I set a particular 'buddy' to online or blocked the child nodes do not move or change.
I am trying to get this to work like an MSN Treeview where people go offline and online.
Any help is appreciated, I have been working on this problem for a month or so with heavy research and no luck.
Thank you for your time.
Looks like you need an OnPropertyChanged event in the State property for VisualColor. The UI does not get a notification that the visual color should be updated. It knows that the State value has changed, but all that means is whatever is bound to the State property gets updated.
I would suggest putting those colors in XAML and writing a DataTrigger on your item, that evaluates the state and changes the color to suit.
Next as for not moving from one status category to another, when you set the state, have you looked at the CollectionViewSource at runtime to see how it is sorting? Are you calling a refresh on the CVS view anywhere?
