I have a GridView:
<GridViewColumn Width="{Binding ElementName=helperField, Path=ActualWidth}" >
<GridViewColumn.Header>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" >
<TextBlock Text="{x:Static lang:TextResource.name}" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Width="200" />
<TextBlock Margin="20,0,0,0" Text="{Binding SelectedWorkingDate.WorkingDate.Date, StringFormat=d}" Width="100" />
<TextBlock Margin="0,0,17,0" Text="{x:Static lang:TextResource.workingtime_time}" Width="80" />
<TextBlock Text="{x:Static lang:TextResource.desc}" Margin="15,0,0,0" Width="300" HorizontalAlignment="Right" />
</StackPanel>
</GridViewColumn.Header>
...
Now my gridViewColumn filling all the available space, but the header also is moving after f.e. maximizing the window.
What can I do to have explicit position of my StackPanel in the header.
I have also created a blank project with ListView, set the GridViewColumn width="900" and see the same behavior, so maybe there is a property I should use to change that behavior?
You can use Canvas:
<Canvas>
<TextBlock Canvas.Top="20" Canvas.Left="20" Text="{x:Static lang:TextResource.name}"
</Canvas>

I tried to implement case in which one TextBlock appears on top of another TextBlock, playing with Visibility property - but it doesn't working yet.
TextBlock are inside DockPanel:
<DockPanel Grid.Row="1" Margin="5">
<TextBlock Text="Text1" Height="20" HorizontalAlignment="Right" DockPanel.Dock="Right">
<TextBlock Text="Text2" Background="Aqua" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" Visibility="{Binding IfDeviceSelected, NotifyOnSourceUpdated=True, Converter={StaticResource ResourceKey=BoolToVisibilityConverter}}" />
</TextBlock>
<TextBlock Text="#Device Focus:" Height="20" HorizontalAlignment="Right" DockPanel.Dock="Right" />
</DockPanel>
You will want to use a Grid to group these TextBlocks, DockPanel/StackPanel will not allow overlapping controls(without horrible manipulation of Margins etc)
<DockPanel Grid.Row="1" Margin="5" >
<Grid DockPanel.Dock="Right" >
<TextBlock Text="Text1" />
<TextBlock Text="Text2" Background="Aqua" Visibility="{Binding IfDeviceSelected, NotifyOnSourceUpdated=True, Converter={StaticResource ResourceKey=BoolToVisibilityConverter}}" />
</Grid>
<TextBlock Text="#Device Focus:" Height="20" HorizontalAlignment="Right" DockPanel.Dock="Right" />
</DockPanel>
I created user control with the textblock. But it will not wrap. This user control servers as a listboxitem.
<Grid x:Name="MainGrid" Height="Auto" Width="Auto">
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<Image Height="50" Width="100" Stretch="Uniform" Name="image1" Source="{Binding Path=VideoImageUrl}" Margin="12,12,13,84" MouseLeftButtonDown="image1_MouseLeftButtonDown" MouseEnter="image1_MouseEnter" MouseLeave="image1_MouseLeave" />
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" >
<TextBlock TextWrapping="Wrap" Height="Auto" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Name="titleTextBox"
Text="{Binding Path=Title, Mode=TwoWay, ValidatesOnExceptions=true, NotifyOnValidationError=true}"
VerticalAlignment="Center" Width="Auto" FontSize="14" FontWeight="SemiBold" />
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" x:Name="StackPanelDetails">
<TextBlock Height="Auto" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Name="desciptionTextBox"
TextWrapping="Wrap"
Text="{Binding Path=Desciption, Mode=OneWay, ValidatesOnExceptions=true, NotifyOnValidationError=true}"
VerticalAlignment="Center" Width="Auto" />
<Line />
<ItemsControl x:Name="CustomItemsSource" ItemsSource="{Binding Path=LinksList}" >
<ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock>
<Hyperlink NavigateUri="{Binding Path=TopicUrl}" RequestNavigate="Hyperlink_RequestNavigate" >
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=TopicName}" />
</Hyperlink>
</TextBlock>
</DataTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
</ItemsControl>
</StackPanel>
</StackPanel>
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
A ListBox's default template does not automatically limit the width of its items, but instead uses a ScrollViewer, which shows a horizontal scrollbar when an item is wider than the ListBox.
You can remove the ScrollViewer by replacing the ListBox's Template:
<ListBox ...>
<ListBox.Template>
<ControlTemplate>
<StackPanel IsItemsHost="True"/>
</ControlTemplate>
</ListBox.Template>
...
</ListBox>
Another important thing to note is that a StackPanel in the top-level Grid won't properly resize the contained elements. In the following simplified example the text in the TextBlock is not wrapped because the containing StackPanel simply does not resize it as you expect:
<Grid>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<Image ... />
<Text TextWrapping="Wrap" Text=... />
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
This way it works as you expect:
<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/>
<ColumnDefinition/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Image ... />
<TextBlock Grid.Column="1" TextWrapping="Wrap" Text=... />
</Grid>
I need to make the ListBox expand to fit the width it has available. Here's the XAML:
<ListBox Grid.Row="2" Height="400" ItemsSource="{StaticResource Notes}" VerticalAlignment="Top">
<ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" Height="90" Margin="5">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Title}" FontSize="30" />
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Text}" FontSize="15" />
<Rectangle Fill="#1192D4" Height="2" />
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>

A ListBoxItem that fills its parent
I have a particular template for a listbox item which contains different textblocks. After adding the items in the listbox I want to retrieve the text of a particular textblock of a particular listbox item. How can I do that?
<ListBox x:Name="listBox1" Grid.Row="0" SelectionChanged="listBox1_SelectionChanged">
<ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Margin="0,2,0,0">
<CheckBox Name="cbSelect" VerticalAlignment="Center" Visibility="{Binding isVisible}"/>
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical">
<Grid HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" >
<TextBlock Name="txtTitle" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" Text="{Binding Title}" Style="{StaticResource PhoneTextExtraLargeStyle}"/>
<TextBlock Name="txtDate" Foreground="{StaticResource PhoneInverseInactiveBrush}" HorizontalAlignment="Right" VerticalAlignment="Center" Text="{Binding CreatedOn}" Margin="0,0,30,0" Style="{StaticResource PhoneTextSmallStyle}" />
<!-- <Image x:Name="lineImg" Source="/Icons/appbar.next.rest.png" HorizontalAlignment="Right" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" Width="48" Height="48"/>-->
</Grid>
<TextBlock Name="txtContent" Foreground="{StaticResource PhoneDisabledBrush}" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" Text="{Binding Content}" Style="{StaticResource PhoneTextNormalStyle}" />
<Line Stroke="{StaticResource PhoneBorderBrush}" StrokeThickness=" 2" X1="0" Y1="0" X2="{Binding ElementName=listBox1, Path=ActualWidth}" Y2="0" Margin="0,6,0,0" ></Line>
<!-- <Image x:Name="lineImg" Source="/Icons/Line.png" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Width="500" Height="2" Margin="0,15,0,0" />-->
</StackPanel>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>
In the above code, after adding the items to the listbox, I want the text of txtTitle of a particular item. How can I get it?
You need to get a reference to the ContentPresenter of the item.
ListBoxItem myListBoxItem = (ListBoxItem)(myListBox.ItemContainerGenerator.ContainerFromItem(myListBox.Items.CurrentItem));
ContentPresenter myContentPresenter = FindVisualChild<ContentPresenter>(myListBoxItem);
DataTemplate myDataTemplate = myContentPresenter.ContentTemplate;
TextBlock myTextBlock = (TextBlock)myDataTemplate.FindName("textBlock", myContentPresenter);
The FindVisualChild method along with the full example can be found here.
I have this ListView and I'm using a DataTemplate (as you can see) for items.
How can i add column names to the ListView with this ItemTemplate definition?
I cannot use that GridViewColumn definition, because this ListView uses lazy data loading, so when there are too many rows, it fetches them on demand. GridViewColumn somehow does not function with this lazy loading.
<ListView Grid.Row="3">
<ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Grid x:Name="grid" Background="Transparent" MinWidth="580" >
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="220" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="100" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="100" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="70"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="80"/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<TextBlock VerticalAlignment="Center" Grid.Column="0" Text="{Binding Path=Benutzer.Value.Code}"/>
<TextBlock VerticalAlignment="Center" Grid.Column="1" Text="{Binding Path=Nachname}"/>
<TextBlock VerticalAlignment="Center" Grid.Column="2" Text="{Binding Path=Vorname}"/>
<TextBlock VerticalAlignment="Center" Grid.Column="3">
<TextBlock.Text>
<Binding Path="GeburtDate" StringFormat="{}{0:d}"/>
</TextBlock.Text>
</TextBlock>
<Button VerticalAlignment="Center" Grid.Column="4" Style="{StaticResource StyleEditButton}" Content="Öffnen..." Tag="{Binding}" Click="OpenPersonButton_Click"/>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
</ListView>
I don't think there is any point in using a ListView if, as you say, you cannot use GridView (or any other view). I would exchange ListView for ItemsControl (or ListBox if you need a selectable item or any of the other things that ListBox offers).
If what you say is true, you could just use a stack panel to position a header row above your data rows:
<StackPanel>
<!-- Header -->
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<TextBlock Width="220" TextAlignment="Center" Text="Code" />
<TextBlock Width="100" TextAlignment="Center" Text="Nachname" />
<TextBlock Width="100" TextAlignment="Center" Text="Vorname" />
<TextBlock Width="70" TextAlignment="Center" Text="GeburtDate" />
</StackPanel>
<!-- Data rows -->
<ItemsControl>
<ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" MinWidth="580">
<TextBlock Width="220" TextAlignment="Center" Text="{Binding Path=Benutzer.Value.Code}" />
<TextBlock Width="100" TextAlignment="Center" Text="{Binding Path=Nachname}" />
<TextBlock Width="100" TextAlignment="Center" Text="{Binding Path=Vorname}" />
<TextBlock Width="70" TextAlignment="Center" Text="{Binding Path=GeburtDate, StringFormat={0:d}}" />
<Button VerticalAlignment="Center" Grid.Column="4" Style="{StaticResource StyleEditButton}" Content="Öffnen..." Tag="{Binding}" Click="OpenPersonButton_Click"/>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
</ItemsControl>
</StackPanel>
Hope that helps. You might also like to read about virtualizing panels. That might provide the kind of laziness you're talking about.
