you can disable Capture by xaml and then enable it by writing code in c#.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Controls;
using System.Windows.Data;
using System.Windows.Documents;
using System.Windows.Input;
using System.Windows.Media;
using System.Windows.Media.Imaging;
using System.Windows.Navigation;
using System.Windows.Shapes;
namespace WpfApplication1
{
/// <summary>
/// Interaction logic for MainWindow.xaml
/// </summary>
public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void BStart_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
BStart.IsEnabled = false;
BCapture.IsEnabled = true;
}
}
}
for enable and disable use IsEnabled Property. and for clicking on the button use Click event.
Set IsEnabled="False" to disable the button
<Button Name="btn" IsEnabled="False" Content="press"/>
Set IsEnabled="True" to enable the button
<Button Name="btn" IsEnabled="True" Content="press"/>
Hope this helps
You should store current state in some variable (e.g. _capturing). When variable changing, you refresh IsEnabled property.
Xaml code:
<Button Content="Start" Name="StartButton" Grid.Row="0" Click="StartButton_Click" />
<Button Content="Capture" Name="CaptureButton" Grid.Row="1" Click="CaptureButton_Click"/>
C# code:
public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
private bool _capturing;
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
// Some code
_capturing = false;
UpdateButtons();
}
private void StartButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
// Some code
_capturing = true;
UpdateButtons();
}
private void CaptureButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
// Some code
UpdateButtons();
}
private void UpdateButtons()
{
StartButton.IsEnabled = !_capturing;
CaptureButton.IsEnabled = _capturing;
}
}
UPDATE
You should add click handler and your xaml code will work:
<Button Click="StartButton_Click" Content="Button" Height="77" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="92,151,0,0" Name="button1" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="109">
<Button.Background>
<ImageBrush ImageSource="/WpfApplication1;component/Images/images.jpg" />
</Button.Background>
</Button>
<Button Click="CaptureButton_Click" Content="Button" Height="77" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="229,151,0,0" Name="button2" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="112" IsEnabled="False" >
<Button.Background>
<ImageBrush ImageSource="/WpfApplication1;component/Images/images.jpg" />
</Button.Background>
</Button>
Yes I got my answer. Just make simeple solution
btnhide.visibility= system.visibility. hidden;
There are two ways to disable a button In C# WPF.
In .xaml File
Using IsEnabled="False". If you set False to IsEnabled attribute, then your button will be disabled by default.
In .cs File
ButtonName.IsEnabled = false; If you set IsEnabled property as false for the button, it will disable the button

I am extremely new using C# and that's far away from my mechanical skills ... I have very basic knowledge in C# but I am really willing to push the knowledge effort. Thanks to keep it in minde.
I creating some sort of application/ERP to help with working with my suppliers. The final goal is to create a list of suppliers, their skills, consult RFQ, update RFQ, send emails, ... I have been doing it in Excel VBA in the past but now I am willing to build up something stronger (and also willing to learn something new ...).
First of all, I am willing to create a ListBox with different kind of processes. I would like this ListBox to only show one ListBoxItems (one row) and when the mouse is entering into the ListBox, grow the ListBox to it's full size.
(My goal would be to ! create a ListBox with a dropdown for multiselection :=))
The dirty way I was thinking doing it is:
Create a TextBox with "Click to expand" text. When the mouse is entering the Textbox, hide it and change the listbox visibility to Visible (default visibility to Hidde);
Any thought about it ? Where should I start by ?
I will then selected multiple items in my ListBox.
Latter on, I would like to binding ListBox content to a data base (don't know how to create it on my computer).
Any help is greatly appreciated !
Cheers

What I have tried:

Tried the following code (https://www.codeproject.com/Questions/696480/How-to-make-a-ListBox-grow-on-mouseover) but not working
I have created a Usercontrol that I would like to make resizable using the thumb control. I have added my control to a Canvas and when I click on the thumb control the only events that are fired are Dragend and DragStart (in that order) and DragDelta is not even firing. I have found someone with a similar problem Thumb inside an ItemsControl not firing DragDelta event but there is no way I can ask them if they found a solution.

I am new to WPF and MVVM . So I am finding it a bit difficult to write it in the MVVM format .
Can someone tell me how to rewrite it in MVVM format so that I can use it as a reference for the future?
I think your question has a high chance of being closed because it doesn't demonstrate a minimum willingness to make an effort on your part. Please read a tutorial, there are plenty on the web, and try to understand the concepts first. You need at the very least to understand what a ViewModel is, and how the View relates to it (bindings).
You will probably not get working code that does exactly what you want on this site, I for one am much more interested in explaining how things work.
Anyway, in order to get what you want you need a class that acts as the ViewModel with properties that represent the concepts that you work with. You could have decimal properties that represent the operands and something that represents the operator, and commands that represent each button in the UI. Then you need bindings that link UI elements (textboxes, buttons) to the properties in the ViewModel, and you need to set an instance of the ViewModel as the DataContext of the container for the UI elements you're interested in (be it a Window, Grid or whatever). I think that pretty much sums it up...
You can use this example as a reference. https://code.google.com/p/wpf-mvvm-calculator/downloads/list
I am developing a wpf app. I have a database like this.
I have three columns(id,name,profession).listbox shows name column.
When the user clicks the item in listbox, i wanna show his/her profession
in textblock.
listbox works well. I have bounded it to a dataview. but how can i show his/her profession in textblock?
private void listBox1_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
//What can I write here?
}
You should proably just bind the text attribute of the TextBlock to the selected item of the list box. Check this article at MSDN.

(In the picture above, I want to get the value "b" when I click the "Get value" button.)
I would like to know if there is a simple way to achieve this.
I'm new to WPF, so I only know to do this the long way, which is: Create an array. Everytime a new TextBox is created, add it into the array. Then access the TextBox'es through the array. But that doesn't sound very optimal, I think.
The 'WPF Way' of doing what you want is to use data binding:
Define a class with a string property called Text.
Create a collection of that class.
Bind your list box ItemsSource to the collection.
Create a DataTemplate that shows a TextBox with its Text property bound using {Binding Path=Text}.
In btnAdd_Click add an item to the collection (not directly to the ListBox)
In btnGet_Click you can get the text entered by casting ListBox.SelectedItem to your class and getting its Text property.
Example:
The simple class:
public class VMObject
{
public VMObject(string text)
{
Text = text;
}
public string Text { get; set; }
}
The window code-behind:
public partial class Window1 : Window
{
public ObservableCollection<VMObject> VM { get; set; }
public Window1()
{
VM = new ObservableCollection<VMObject>();
InitializeComponent();
}
private void btnAdd_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
VM.Add(new VMObject(txtInput.Text));
}
private void btnGet_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
if (lb.SelectedItem == null)
MessageBox.Show("No item is selected!");
txtReturn.Text = ((VMObject)lb.SelectedItem).Text;
}
}
The XAML:
<Window x:Class="lbtest.Window1"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"

for a checkbox item:
private void chk_Checked(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
CheckBox chk = (CheckBox)sender;
MessageBox.Show(chk.Content.ToString());
}
No need for TextBox:s. ListBox handle strings fine.
private void btnAdd_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
// No need to create TextBox, ListBox handle strings fine.
lb.Items.Add(txtInput.Text);
}
private void btnGet_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
// No selection, but button has been pressed.
if(lb.SelectedItem == -1)
return;
// Get selected item.
txtReturn.Text = (string)lb.SelectedItem;
/* If you change ListBox selection mode to multiple
* you can get all selected items by using foreach loop.
foreach (Object selected in lb.SelectedItems)
{
txtReturn.Text += (string) selected;
}
*/
}
If you just want to get the Text property of the selected TextBox (admiting your ListBox is in single selection mode) it it quite simple:
private void btnGet_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
if(lb.SelectedItem != -1)
{
TextBox selectedTextBox = (TextBox)lb.SelectedItem;
txtReturn.Text = selectedTextBox.Text;
}
}
But if you want to implement the pretty WPF way, you should follow the Aviad P. solution, my solution do it well too.
Regards.
EDIT: If do not have a real need of TextBox functionalities, but only a string container, so follow Tuukka's solution.
