I have an Image control on my WPF Window and I'd like to display a complex tooltip when the mouse is hovering over this Image.
Imagine like a spell icon in World of Warcraft, you mouse over and the spells tooltip is shown.
How can I do this in XAML?
You can achieve it like this:
<Image>
<Image.ToolTip>
<ToolTip.Content>
<!--...content goes here. -->
</ToolTip.Content>
</Image.ToolTip>
</Image>
You just put whatever you want into the ToolTip property in XML element syntax.
I recommend doing the following to what x0r stated:
<Image ToolTipService.ShowDuration="1440000">
<Image.ToolTip>
<ToolTip.Content>
<!--...content goes here. -->
</ToolTip.Content>
</Image.ToolTip>
</Image>
This leaves the tooltip open for 24 hours (yes, it's a long time). This is just a way to override that annoying 5-second rule.

I would like to embed an image in an Richtextbox in way that the image is sourrounded by text (should look like a newspaper article which contains some images).
That's what I have until now:
<RichTextBox>
<Paragraph>
<InlineUIContainer>
<Image Source="{Binding Image}" Width="200" Height="100" />
</InlineUIContainer>
<Run Text="{Binding Text}" />
</Paragraph>
</RichTextBox>
This code embedds the image in a way so that the first line of the run starts at the bottom right edge of the image.
But I would like to embedd it such a way:

How can this be implemented for WP7.1?
Thanks.
I know this can be done, i believe you would be looking at either Margin or Padding around the image.....As the whole thing will look like an object because that's what it is.
so you want to put Padding or Margin around the image to push the text away from the object giving the appearance of space between the object. Also try Pushing the text to the right and the image to the left.
I hope this will help a little. :)
I don't think it can be done until FlowDocument will be available in Silverlight. Or somebody invents a similar control.
There is a command property in wpf that I am trying to execute on an image click. I am basically changing the style of a scroller. I downloaded sample styles from here and after changing my style I end up with something like:
ok so let me explain. on the top there is an arrow pointing upwards on top of an image. I plan to get rid of the top arrow but the reason why I need it is because in the xaml it has a command that when clicked it scrolls upward. the code for that up arrow is:
<RepeatButton
Style="{StaticResource ScrollBarButton}"
Margin="0,15,0,0"
VerticalAlignment="Top"
Background="#FFFFFFFF"
Grid.Row="0"
Command="{x:Static ScrollBar.LineUpCommand}" <!-- This is the line that enables to scroll upwards when clicked -->
theme:ScrollChrome.ScrollGlyph="UpArrow"
RenderTransformOrigin="0.5, 0.5">
<RepeatButton.RenderTransform>
<ScaleTransform ScaleX="4" ScaleY="2"/>
</RepeatButton.RenderTransform>
</RepeatButton>
In short I am interested in the following property:
Command="{x:Static ScrollBar.LineUpCommand}"
It would be nice if I could get rid of the top arrow and place that command in the image instead. The problem is that the image control does not have the property command. I know I can make the alpha of the top arrow equal to 0 and make it appear like there is only an image but I am curios of understanding how does this work and moreover I would like to add more functionality such as changing the image appearance on mouse enter etc..
Create a button with control template just having an image and bind to the
Command of the button. More on this can be found here:
Attach ICommand in WPF UserControl
Or try using eventtocommand available in mvvm light tookit
In a WPF window I got a CheckBox containing an image, like this:
<CheckBox>
<Image Source="/Bsoft.Clients.Warenwirtschaft;component/Resources/MyImage.png" />
</CheckBox>
Using this, the checkmark is displayed left to the image.
Is there an easy way to move the checkmark to below the image?
I do not know of an easy way to do this.
You could either use some panel and have a checkbox independent from your image...
<StackPanel>
<Image .../>
<CheckBox .../>
</StackPanel>
Which might not be too much trouble if encapsulated in a UserControl.
Or you change the ControlTemplate of the CheckBox, which is more difficult i think. Default templates can be found on MSDN.
I made my own overlay... worked great... but then I noticed that it was appearing off the screen (cut off).
I know silverlight has a tooltip control that auto positions itself on the screen instead of letting itself be cut off.
how can I tap into this control? or is there a better way?
<TextBlock>
<ToolTipService.ToolTip>
<ToolTip>
<Overlay /> // This is you overlay
</ToolTip>
</ToolTipService.ToolTip>
</TextBlock>
You can put any content where <Overlay /> is. You can also apply this to any control, I just used a TextBlock for my example.
I am trying out new styles with silverlight, and I created a new button skin with blend that consists of a border and a textblock. Wondered if there is a way to change the the text of the textblock when the the button's content(text) property is changed.
The binding would look like this:
<TextBlock Text="{TemplateBinding Content}"/>
The problem is when I try to set the content to something other than text:
<Button>
<Button.Content>
<Rectangle Fill="#FFB51111"/>
</Button.Content>
</Button>
In this case using the ContentPresenter would work better. It uses the same binding expression, but can display more than text. But all that is really up to you.
I don't really get what your trying to do. Normally, you include a TextBlock like that as a part of the button content.
Use a ContentPresenter rather than a TextBlock in your Template.
