I'm trying to open a new WPF Window in a second monitor from a Windows located in the primary monitor. Following what I founded in other threads and discussions I wrote this:
System.Windows.Forms.Screen s1 = System.Windows.Forms.Screen.AllScreens[1];
System.Drawing.Rectangle r1 = s1.WorkingArea;
form.WindowState = System.Windows.WindowState.Normal;
form.WindowStartupLocation = System.Windows.WindowStartupLocation.Manual;
form.Top = r1.Top;
form.Left = r1.Left;
form.Show();
form.WindowState = System.Windows.WindowState.Maximized;
but this code not work: the new window is shown in the primary monitor. How I can resolve this problem? Thanks.
The solution was to use r.X and r.Y instead of r.top and r.left:
System.Windows.Forms.Screen s1 = System.Windows.Forms.Screen.AllScreens[1];
System.Drawing.Rectangle r1 = s1.WorkingArea;
form.WindowState = System.Windows.WindowState.Normal;
form.WindowStartupLocation = System.Windows.WindowStartupLocation.Manual;
form.Top = r1.Y;
form.Left = r1.X;
form.Show();
form.WindowState = System.Windows.WindowState.Maximized;
now it works.
I have a question about multipage FixedPage. I have a Grid created programmatically and the Grid exceeds one A4 page. Now I want to print the Grid in several FixedPage with print margin. But on my way, I create the Grid repeatedly and offset the LeftTop point in the fixedPage Arrange function. I meet a problem that I cannot set print margin in fixedPage, because I set the print margin to the fixedPage and then the first page will have print margin and the next pages will be blank.
How do print multipage of FixedDocument for a large grid want to print？
PrintDialog pd = new System.Windows.Controls.PrintDialog();
if (pd.ShowDialog() == false)
{
return;
}
var pageSize = new Size(pd.PrintableAreaWidth, pd.PrintableAreaHeight);
var document = new FixedDocument();
document.DocumentPaginator.PageSize = pageSize;
for (int nPage = 0; nPage < MaxPage; nPage++)
{
Grid tempGrid = LoadControlMotherInit();
tempGrid.Width = GridWidth;
tempGrid.Height = GridActualHeight;
Point leftTop = new Point();
leftTop.X = 10;
leftTop.Y = -nPage * pageSize.Height;
// Create FixedPage
var fixedPage = new FixedPage();
fixedPage.Width = pageSize.Width;
fixedPage.Height = pageSize.Height;
fixedPage.Margin = new Thickness(0, 0, 0, 96);
fixedPage.Children.Add((UIElement)tempGrid);
fixedPage.Measure(pageSize);
fixedPage.Arrange(new Rect(leftTop, pageSize));
fixedPage.UpdateLayout();
// Add page to document
var pageContent = new PageContent();
((System.Windows.Markup.IAddChild)pageContent).AddChild(fixedPage);
document.Pages.Add(pageContent);
}
pd.PrintDocument(document.DocumentPaginator, "My Document");
From looking at your example,
PrintDialog.PrintDocument method takes in a DocumentPaginator, which could come from a multitude of source.
that being said, you can inherit from DocumentPaginator and take control of everything from PageSize, PageCount to the actual DocumentPage being returned.
Imagine your DocumentPage as a sliding window over your UIElement; but instead of sliding your DocumentPage, you slide your UIElement using its RenderTransform.
This is my code , please let me know the solution for it.
var images = (from pd in SvarkWindow.prodlist where pd.Product_name.StartsWith(imgname) select pd.Image).ToList();
BitmapImage b = new BitmapImage();
b.BeginInit();
//b.UriSource = new Uri(images.ElementAtOrDefault(0), UriKind.Relative);
b.UriSource = new Uri("http://portal.liftech.in/presc/" + images.ElementAtOrDefault(0));
b.EndInit();
// ... Get Image reference from sender.
Image img1 = Productimage0 as Image;
img1.Source = b;
I did this in this way.
look at the code.
ImageSource imageSource = new BitmapImage(new Uri("http://portal.liftech.in/presc/" + images.ElementAtOrDefault(0)));
System.Windows.Controls.Image image1 = new System.Windows.Controls.Image();
image1.Source = imageSource;
Grid.SetColumn(image1, 0);//image1 is added to column 0
Grid.SetRow(image1, 0);//row 0
ProductGrid0.Children.Add(image1);
I'd like to create a bitmap from a WPF control. I see some examples in this forum (one above all: Render a "not visible" WPF controls to an bitmap image ), but they can render well only if the WPF control is already shown on the screen.
I have to create a control in a model to associate the bitmap result into an his internal bitmap field.
I followed the example into the above thread, but the result was a bitmap with only a part of the content of the control (as if it was not completely rendered).
How perform a complete render before the image render aquisition?

Thank you

For me, this one works:
Size size = new Size(432, 460);
frameworkElement.Measure(size);
frameworkElement.Arrange(new Rect(new Point(), size));
frameworkElement.UpdateLayout();
RenderTargetBitmap renderTargetBitmap = new RenderTargetBitmap((int)frameworkElement.ActualWidth, (int)frameworkElement.ActualHeight, 96, 96, PixelFormats.Pbgra32);
renderTargetBitmap.Render(frameworkElement);
FormatConvertedBitmap monoBitmap = new FormatConvertedBitmap(renderTargetBitmap, PixelFormats.BlackWhite, null, 0);
BmpBitmapEncoder bmpImage = new BmpBitmapEncoder();
bmpImage.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create(monoBitmap));
byte[] bmpData;
using (MemoryStream buffer = new MemoryStream())
{
bmpImage.Save(buffer);
bmpData = buffer.ToArray();
}
Sorry for resulting in monochrome bitmap, that's just what I used. This can simply be converted to any bitmap type as a result.
Is there any way to render a Silverlight text to a path or graphics object at runtime? I know this can be done using the design tools, but I want to be able to do this on the fly.
I've seen an example that calls a webservice which uses WPF constructs to convert a WPF FormattedText object to a PathGeometry, but those objects aren't available in Silverlight.
I'm pretty sure this just isn't supported in Silverlight, but thought it was worth asking.
As you suspected, you'd have to do it server-side to convert the text to a PathGeometry which is supported in Silverlight.
What are you trying to achieve?
Here is the code for creating a SilverLight path Geometry dynamically.
or creating a SilverLight path from a string.
Just paste below method in a new class or in existing class and it will be ready to use.
you can find a sample code to use this functions at bottom of the method.
/// Method tested with SilverLight 2.0
// this method will generates path with the data string
public PathGeometry getPathGeometry(string data)
{
PathGeometry pg = new PathGeometry();
PathSegmentCollection psc = new PathSegmentCollection();
PathFigure pf = new PathFigure();
PathFigureCollection pfc = new PathFigureCollection();
data= data.Replace("M "," M").Replace("C "," C").Replace("L "," L");
string[] str = data.Split(' ');
for (int i = 0; i < str.Length; i++)
{
if (str[i].StartsWith("C") || str[i].StartsWith("c"))
{
string[] item = str[i].Split(',');
string[] item1 = str[i + 1].Split(',');
string[] item2 = str[i + 2].Split(',');
BezierSegment bs = new BezierSegment();
bs.Point1 = new Point(double.Parse(item[0].Substring(1)), double.Parse(item[1]));
bs.Point2 = new Point(double.Parse(item1[0]), double.Parse(item1[1]));
bs.Point3 = new Point(double.Parse(item2[0]), double.Parse(item2[1]));
i += 2;
psc.Add(bs);
}
else if (str[i].StartsWith("L") || str[i].StartsWith("l"))
{
string[] item = str[i].Split(',');
LineSegment ls = new LineSegment();
ls.Point = new Point(double.Parse(item[0].Substring(1)), double.Parse(item[1]));
psc.Add(ls);
}
else if (str[i].StartsWith("M") || str[i].StartsWith("m"))
{
string[] item = str[i].Split(',');
pf.StartPoint = new Point(double.Parse(item[0].Substring(1)), double.Parse(item[1]));
}
else if (str[i].StartsWith("z") || str[i].StartsWith("Z"))
{
pf.IsClosed = true;
}
}
pf.Segments = psc;
pfc.Add(pf);
pg.Figures = pfc;
return pg;
}
