I have the next 2 grids and the same header structure:
grids structure
The most importent thing from this structure is to implement the double line functionality on the header and also on the grids.
I need to have the sorting functionality on the first line and also on the second, and to have the default header style on bought lines( because if I add 2 textblocks in one header they will not have this functionality).
Is this possible?
This might be part of you answer
<TextBlock>LineOne<LineBreak/>LineTwo</TextBlock>

The best way to show what I need is showing an image:
What is the easiest way to implement this kind of "nested ListView" - each Item can be expanded and has subitems. I want the hierarchy only to show on the first column as shown when any other solution can be accepted.
There are couple of ways to do it. I consider that you are good in WPF and easily check code and take idea from it because it is not easy to give code of your requirement here.
You must need to user Expander for expand and collapse functionality for the detail sections as per you image.
I am sharing some the links from where you can easily get what you want. It is not exact code which you can copy but it will give you basic structure of what you want.

You will enjoy working on this one.
I am planing to show hotel room booking status as a color effect. See the image. At want control I want to use?
Dude, this is WPF... you could use just about any control that you want to do that. Ok so I'm exaggerating a bit, but it really is your choice. You should use whatever you're comfortable with. However, if I had to design a UI that looked like your image, I'd probably either go with a ListBox or a DataGrid with a fairly high level of customisation.
If I were to use a DataGrid, the day names could be the column headers and the room names could be the row headers. You'd also need to use some sort of custom ColorConverter class to colour the cell data in the cells.
Using a ListBox, I'd create a DataTemplate to apply to the ListBox.ItemTemplate property that would contain the whole row including the room name. Of course, this would mean that you'd need to structure your data differently to include the name of each room. With a known number of days/columns, you could just use a Grid in the DataTemplate with the Grid.IsSharedSizeScope property set to True to keep the columns of each item aligned.
Good luck and have fun with that... it seems like an interesting project.
I'm working on a new project where the design calls for dynamic rows and columns displayed in some form of grid. I think I can accomplish this very hackishly using the plain ol' Grid, but it seems like it should be possible using a "real" grid.
In my mockup, I circled the tricky bit in red. Under column 1, I have effectively 2 columns of data. The problem is the fact that my data in column 1 can span multiple rows. And the fact that column one is really two pseudo columns and each one can span a different number of rows independently. Note: the data is fake and inconsequential. I'm open to ideas for a good implementation. I can fall back to the Grid and do this all in code behind, I'm open to purchasing a datagrid that may have more power than the DataGrid and my absolute last resort/preference is to restructure this format to something a little more doable.
Thank you for any ideas you can provide.
Most commercial WPF DataGrid implementations handle hierarchical data like this. For example, Telerik's DataGrid (part of RadControls for WPF) supports hierarchical data in multiple formats.
Typically, the default styling is a bit different than yours above, but can be adapted to that format via styling.
I've got a wpf listview doing the gridview thing and I was wondering how I could add an extra header row above the field's headers?
I need to do this because this gridview shows a LOT of columns, all somewhat related to processes in a warehouse environment. The extra header provides a quick "Visual Grouping" of which fields in the grid are related.
In winforms world on 3rd party grid's they call this extra header row a "Band". I searched around but didn't see anything like this posted.
After posting here and on msdn about overriding a controltemplate to add in this extra header row I got no responses.
So I had to implement my functionality with labels stacked in a grid. I used dependency properties on my View and callback functions to handle size events and set the appropriate label width. I posted another question about this on here.
A bit hacky feeling, but it works until I can determine a better method.
I know there has to be an easy way to do this, I just can't think of it. I need to display a set of notes in a WPF application. The layout for each note would be
Note Name Note Date
Note Text
Each item above exists individually in my database access layer and I just need a way to display it. In ASP, this is something I might have created a table for and then used the repeater object to dislay it multiple times (multiple notes).
Is the ListView control the best way to go about this? How would I display multiple items next to each other as above with the NoteName and NoteDate?
You could use a ListView. In this case you would declare a GridViewColumn for each column, with the appropriate DisplayMemberBinding or CellTemplate depending on the complexity of what you wanted to show.
You could also use an ItemsControl or a ListBox, with an appropriate DataTemplate. This is good for when you do not want a strict column layout (e.g. you want to show the Name and Date on one line of big bold text, and the Note Text below that in smaller italic text.)
