This is my UserControl file:

<Border x:Name="border" CornerRadius="8">

</Border.Background>
</Border>
</ControlTemplate>
</Button.Template>
</Button>
And in a page I set up a button like this:
<myProject:ButtonWithImage ImageSource="/Resources/test.png" Text="Back" Name="btnBack1" Command="NavigationCommands.GoToPage" CommandParameter="ViewModel/Categories.xaml" />
However the text and the imagesource aren't on the button! They don't appear. What am I doing wrong?

You have named your UserControl ImageControl, but then you have tried to access it in your XAML using the name ImageButton. You'll have more luck if you stick with the one name. Try this instead:
<UserControl x:Class="myProject.ButtonWithImage"
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:myProject="clr-namespace:myProject;assembly=myProject.BusinessLogic"
mc:Ignorable="d"
Name="ImagedControl"
d:DesignHeight="300" d:DesignWidth="300">
<Button Height="35" Width="90" FocusVisualStyle="{x:Null}" Foreground="White"
Click="OnClick" HorizontalContentAlignment="Center" VerticalContentAlignment="Center" Padding="0 0 1 1">
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Margin="3">
<Image Source="{Binding ElementName=ImagedControl, Path=ImageSource}" Stretch="None" Margin="0 0 5 0" />
<TextBlock Text="{Binding ElementName=ImagedControl, Path=Text}" FontSize="12" VerticalAlignment="Center" />
</StackPanel>
<Button.Template>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type Button}">
<Border x:Name="border" CornerRadius="8">
<Border.Background>
SlateBlue
</Border.Background>
</Border>
</ControlTemplate>
</Button.Template>
</Button>
This also assumes that you have correctly declared two DependencyPropertys of the correct type, named ImagesSource and Text in your UserControl and have set appropriate values for them.

I've built a simple login page and when invalid input is detected, a red border is drawn around the usercontrol.
Here is my layout code:
<UserControl x:Class="WPFTest.UI.Views.EmptyLayout"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

Background="White"

<Grid Margin="20">
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="50"></RowDefinition>
<RowDefinition></RowDefinition>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<TextBlock Grid.Row="0" FontSize="20" FontWeight="Bold">Test Sales Estimator</TextBlock>
<ContentControl Content="{Binding Layout}" Grid.Row="1">
<ContentControl.Resources>
<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type vm:LoginViewModel}">
<local:LoginView/>
</DataTemplate>
</ContentControl.Resources>
</ContentControl>
</Grid>
</UserControl>
And here is the login view:
<UserControl
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"

>

<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<StackPanel Grid.Row="2" Margin="0 50 0 0">
<TextBlock Text="Welcome" FontSize="17" Grid.Row="1" Margin="0 0 0 20" Height="50"/>
<StackPanel>
<TextBlock Text="Username" />
<TextBox Text="{Binding Username}"/>
</StackPanel>
<StackPanel Grid.Row="2" Margin="0 10 0 0">
<TextBlock Text="Password" />
<PasswordBox x:Name="Password" PasswordChanged="PasswordBox_PasswordChanged" >
</PasswordBox>
</StackPanel>
<Button
Grid.Row="2"
Margin="0 20 0 0"
Padding="5 2"
HorizontalAlignment="Left"
Command="{Binding HandleLoginCommand}"
IsEnabled="{Binding CanLogin}"
Content="Login">
</Button>
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
</UserControl>
I have tried to override the border with the following template:
<Style TargetType="views:LoginView">
<Style.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="Validation.HasError" Value="True">
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="Blue"/>
<Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="1"/>
</Trigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
But the border remains red. I've also tried changing the target on the template to things like UserControl, and ContentControl. I've also tried setting the Validation.ErrorTemplate attribute to {x:Null} on both the UserControl and on the element inside the layout usercontrol.
For the LoginViewModel, I am using the CommunityToolkit.Mvvm's ObservableValidator as my base class, so it handles the validation logic and here is my Username property.
private string _username;
[Required]
[MinLength(4)]
public string Username
{
get { return _username; }
set {
SetProperty(ref _username, value, true);
OnPropertyChanged(nameof(HandleLoginCommand));
}
}
The border is from your contentcontrol.
Set Validation.ErrorTemplate="{x:Null}" on that.
You can just use a contentpresenter.
<ContentPresenter Content="{Binding Layout}" Grid.Row="1"
Validation.ErrorTemplate="{x:Null}">
<ContentPresenter.Resources>
<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type local:LoginViewModel}">
<local:LoginView/>
</DataTemplate>
</ContentPresenter.Resources>
</ContentPresenter>
I have a simplified layout to explore this, but the outer red border does not appear when I make that change.
The validation decoration does not use the control's Border(Thcikness/Brush). It is instead a separate Visual that is drawn in a separate AdornerLayer. To modify its looks, you should pass a dedicated template for the ErrorTemplate like this: (example for TextBox)
<Style TargetType="TextBox">
<Setter Property="Validation.ErrorTemplate">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate>
<Grid>
<Border BorderBrush="Yellow" BorderThickness="3">
<AdornedElementPlaceholder x:Name="AdornedElementPlaceholder" />
</Border>
</Grid>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
To actually remove the border, try setting Validation.ErrorTemplate to {x:Null}.
I'm new in WPF and I have problems encountered. Why the binding of ListView ItemSource inside the sectionControls:ViewDefaultLayout element is not working. But when I try to remove the ListView element outside of the sectionControls:ViewDefaultLayout element the categories are showing.

Image cannot resize as its height and width is fixed. Remove Height and width of the image.
<Grid>
<Image HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="96,104,0,0" Source="{Binding Image}" VerticalAlignment="Top" />
</Grid>
And also remove TextWrapping="Wrap" from image tag. TextWrapping is not a property of image control
try this code:
<Grid> <Image HorizontalAlignment="Left" Source="{Binding Image}" VerticalAlignment="Top" HorizontalAlignment="Left" /> </Grid>
I'm trying to implement the example outlined here:
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/30994/Introduction-to-WPF-Templates
The author states "The ContentPresenter control can be used to display the content of a WPF control."
with the following code:
<ContentPresenter VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center"
Content="{TemplateBinding Button.Content}" />
I've added it to my window as follows:
<Window x:Class="HKC.Desktop.Window1"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="Window1" Height="487" Width="765.924" Loaded="Window_Loaded">
<Grid x:Name="mainGrid" Background="#FF252525">
<Button Content="Push Me" Template="{StaticResource buttonTemplate}" Name="button1" Height="100" Width="100"></Button>
<ContentPresenter VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Content="{TemplateBinding Button.Content}" />
</Grid>
</Window>
But I'm getting the following error:
Cannot set a TemplateBinding if not in a template.
How can I resolve this?
You need to put the ContentPresent in the ControlTemplate, like that
<ControlTemplate x:Key="buttonTemplate" TargetType="{x:Type Button}">
<Grid>
<Ellipse Name="el1" Fill="Orange" Width="100" Height="100">
</Ellipse>
<ContentPresenter VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center"
Content="{TemplateBinding Button.Content}" />
</Grid>
</ControlTemplate>
The problem is that you have no template. Your XAML should look somehow like this:
<Window x:Class="HKC.Desktop.Window1"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="Window1" Height="487" Width="765.924" Loaded="Window_Loaded">
<Window.Resources>
<ControlTemplate x:Key="buttonTemplate" TargetType="{x:Type Button}">
<Ellipse Name="el1" Fill="Orange" Width="100" Height="100">
<ContentPresenter VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Content="{TemplateBinding Button.Content}" />
</ControlTemplate>
</Window.Resources>
<Grid x:Name="mainGrid" Background="#FF252525">
<Button Content="Push Me" Template="{StaticResource buttonTemplate}" Name="button1" Height="100" Width="100"/>
</Grid>
</Window>
