wpf Horizontal gridline in gridview - wpf

I just want to show horizontal gridline between rows in listview. Is it possible?
All the post i have seen talks about vertical and horizontal grid lines using border.

This is possible. You would just have to change the ListView's ItemContainerStyle, so that it contains a line below the actual item.
You can easily do that by adjusting the default style which you can find here (click the "Download" link in the "Themes" section).

Please try the following link, it might help.

WPF Ellipse why can I not add a grid?

I have a WPF application. I am trying to create a ellipse toggle button. I wanted to have a textbox in the ellipse with two images next to each other below the textbox. In my other buttons I have added a grid with two rows to achieve this.
However it doesn't like it when I try to add a grid to an ellipse. "The type ellipse does not support direct content". What does this mean? Is it possible to do what I wish?
This particular error really couldn't be too much clearer:
The type Ellipse does not support direct content.
The Ellipse Shape is not a ContentControl. Therefore, it does not have a Content property. This means that you cannot add any content to it.
What you can do is to add a Grid with no columns or rows defined and add your Ellipse into the Grid. Then you can overlay other UI elements in front of the Ellipse, which may appear as if they were inside it.

Strange "dancing" effect in a wpf datagrid with horizontal scrollbar

To reproduce: wpf datagrid - make sure size of the datagrid is such that horizontal scroll bar is visible and choose a datagridtextcolumn of a particular size - now try to enter a text which straddles this size :)
Any ideas how to fix this problem?
How about disabling the ScrollBar when cells are being edited? Maybe you can add a handler to the DataGrid.BeginningEdit event and disable the ScrollBar there?
ScrollViewer.SetHorizontalScrollBarVisibility(dataGrid, ScrollBarVisibility.Disabled);
ScrollViewer.SetVerticalScrollBarVisibility(dataGrid, ScrollBarVisibility.Disabled);

how to show only horizontal gridlines of a grid in windows phone 7

I have created an grid with 3 columns and 4 rows in wp7. Now i need to show lines separating only the rows of the grid.(i.e I need to show only horizontal grid-lines of a grid) and also i need to change the color of the horizontal grid-lines. Help me.
Note: There is an way of using toolkit and we can achieve this through datagrid. but i want to know whether it can be done on the normal grid.

border control can be used on each row to acheive this . border should be given with borderbrush and with required thickness...

How create WPF scrollbar to look like iTunes cover flow scrollbar?

I would like to create a scrollbar in WPF that looks like the one seen in iTunes cover flow. See scrollbar image below, which also shows the reflection of the album art underneath the scrollbar.
Scrollbar Image http://www.barramsoft.com/pub/images/scrollbar2.jpg
Below is a basic scrollbar control in xaml.
<ScrollBar Name="scrollBar1" Height="24" Width="Auto" Orientation="Horizontal"
SmallChange="1" />
How can I get from the above to an iTunes cover flow scroll bar look? The full ready to use source code sample would be preferred.
Start with the ScrollBar ControlTemplate Example in MSDN from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms742173.aspx (that is much easier to modify than the window style you can get from Blend or ShowMeTheTemplate)
Now start to edit the template, change the colors, the templates for the arrow buttons and the thumb until it looks like you want.
Have you got Expression Blend? If not I'd recommend installing it (there is a 30 day trial version if you don't have an MSDN license).
There are quite a few Expression Blend tutorials out there here's a good place to start for example.
Basically you copy the template for the standard scroll bar which will give you all the elements that go to make it up. You then change what each element looks like until you get it looking how you want it. There will be a fairly large amount of trial and error in this process.
The first task is to show the scrolled area underneath the scrollbar. You have to change the structure of the ScrollViewer control. By default it is a 2x2 Grid so the horizontal scrollbar is under the scrolled area. Edit its template to put the scrolled area and the scrollbar in the same cell, vertically aligning the scrollbar to bottom.
The second part is to style the scrollbar itself. I don't believe this can't be done with rounded rectangles.
I usually extract the template to modify it using Blend, there is also a free ShowMeTheTemplate tool.
Have a look at the WPF Themes project at codeplex. The Expression Blend Theme (light/dark) is very close to the example you've provided. It is released under Ms PL.

Anchor in WinForms==Horizontal(+Vertical)Alignment in WPF?

Can't find anchor property in WPF, was it reconstructed to Horizontal and Vertical Alignments?
Is it the same?
I wanted to stretch my control in both sides (right and left), but it worked rather different than anchor
You can do something like Anchor like this
<...HorizontalAlignment='Stretch' VerticalAlignment='Stretch' Margin='50,50,50,50'.../>
The Anchor and Dock properties of Windows Forms are replaced by appropriate layouting containers in WPF. Depending on what exactly you need you should be able to create your desired layout in WPF with the Grid or DockPanel containers.
There are small white circles at the edges of the control. Click them, and they will be converted to triangles which mean the edge is anchored.
