I would like to set the ToolTip on my chart line, pie, area, bubble to include both the X and the Y values.
Charting is use is defined here :
xmlns:chartingToolkit="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls.DataVisualization.Charting;assembly=System.Windows.Controls.DataVisualization.Toolkit"
I've learned that I can use the ControlTemplate to do this and by overriding the entire thing, I can also set the tooltip.
But this also changes things which I like, the random color selection, the status changes etc.
Is there a way to apply only the tooltip binding to all chart series types, without having to override the entire thing for each of the types (that makes for a very long and mostly irrelevant code, which mostly I don't understand and don't care about)
Thanks! (My first post)

You have to copy a part of the original source (the style).
Check this site: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/delay/archive/2010/04/22/nobody-likes-a-show-off-today-s-datavisualizationdemos-release-includes-new-demos-showing-off-stacked-series-behavior.aspx
Here you can download this zip file that contains an example project in WPF.
Read the source/style in ChartStyling.xaml and your question will most likely be answered!

I'm a long-time user of SciChart, but it's an old version (3.1). I've just started using FastHeatMapRenderableSeries for the first time, and there is a requirement for a user to alter the chart's gradient stops. I've implemented a UI to do this (see image), which involves dragging markers that updates their respective gradient stop within the ColorMap's LinearGradientBrush. It's working in as much as gradient changes can be seen in the chart's HeatColorMap (not shown on this screenshot), and also in my "drag" control (a Rectangle whose Fill is bound to the ColorMap's brush).
The problem is that the colours within the chart itself don't change - perhaps I was being a little too hopeful that this would happen automatically! Is this possible, or will I have to recreate the series each time there has been a change to the gradient?
We actually have this working in a later version of SciChart. Im not sure which version exactly but it was introduced at some point. Have a look at this forum post which discusses a bug in the heatmap color map binding in v5.
In the v6 examples suite, you can drag the heat map legend and recolour the chart automatically, so we know in principle this works.
Very cool image by the way!
I am struggling with a WPF MVVM problem using a control that has helper functions and exposing those helper functions to my viewmodels.
I am using the PDFTron viewer control that shows a PDFDocument object. Items in that PDFDocument are specified in terms of a PDFTron.Rect structure with the elements measured in points(1/72th inch) and a page number
To help convert the coordinate systems to and from screen position the PDFTron ViewerControl has various function on itself.
e.g. To convert from a screen point
Double x, y;
int page = Control.GetPageNumberFromScreenPt(x, y);
Control.ConvScreenPtToPagePt(ref x, ref y, page);
To convert to a screen point is from the object being examined
PDFTron.Rect r = Control.GetScreenRectForAnnot(embeddedObject, pageNumber);
What the best way of calling/exposing or binding to functions like this between the view model(s) and the PDF control as I would really like to databind to coordinates.
For instance I have an adorner defined in XAML that allows me to move an image I have read from the embeddedobject about the page by dragging and I can also resize the image. The viewmodel knows As my view model knows the image the embedded object its page and Rectangle on that page, but as PDF coordinates. But this needs to be translated to screen coordinates for the X, Y, Width and Height for binding to the XAML Attributes. I cannot quite see how to do this as it seems beyond a dataconverter.
So the control in the xaml has attributes measured in screen units
AdornerLeft="{Binding Data.X, Mode=TwoWay}"
AdornerTop="{Binding Data.Y, Mode=TwoWay}"
AdornerWidth="{Binding Data.Width, Mode=TwoWay}"
AdornerHeight="{Binding Data.Height, Mode=TwoWay}"
If the X and Y change I need the change to be reflected eventually as the page,x,y coordinates of the viewer as they are what are used by the underlying model.
I did wonder would it be wise to make a series of dependency properties so if I change one it ripples the change through the others as a conversion? So for example I have a property ScreenY When that changes it updates PDFY and PDFPage and vice versa but that seems overly complicated. Any suggestions?
Typically what is done, is that during user interaction, so while your user is moving and resizing the image, everything is drawn overtop of PDFViewWPF viewer.
You can get a Canvas object from PDFViewWPF.GetCanvas() and then you can draw your image on that if you like.
At this point, nothing relates to the PDF, you are just dealing with WPF coordinates.
Only once the user is done moving and dragging, and you want to add the image to the PDF page, perhaps as a Stamp annotation, or even injecting the image into the page content, only then would you erase all your graphics, and inject the image into the PDF. Only at this point would you need to translate between coordinate systems.
Please take a closer look at the PDFViewWPFTools project, and see how something like the Rectangle annotations are created.
This post might provide additional clarity for you.
I ended up using the Prism library and the eventAggregator to pass the details back to a the View and get the results, also using events to refresh the view. The PDFWPFViewer MVVM sample from PdfTron beside having some issues with incorrect bindings, essentially uses a tool library that is shared and acts like a windows forms library, no behaviors for controlling adorner drag etc.
I'm using wpf with live charts library.
While I draw line chart, I want to add emphasis line on specific label.
It can be a important date with an event.
At first, I added another lineseries about the event. to use geometry
as a marker. But the geometry is somewhat small. Therefore some people couldn't find the event data.
So I want to add lines at tham. But I don't know how to.
Can someone help me?
I'd like to change the font size of a chunk of RTF without erasing the bold / italic / underline formatting (an issue similar to the one in this question). The accepted answer is to modify the selection of the text box until the SelectionFont propery is null in order to find runs of consistently formatted text which can be modified individually. Sounds reasonable. However the actual behavior of the RichTextBox control seems to be inconsistent with the documentation.
In the documentation for RichTextBox.SelectionFont MSDN states:
If the current text selection has more than one font specified, this
property is null.
However, this code which uses mixed bold / regular text doesn't behave as you'd expect:
var rtb = new RichTextBox {
Rtf = #"{\rtf1 This is \b bold\b0.}"
};
rtb.SelectAll();
// Now you'd expect rtb.SelectionFont to be null,
// but it actually returns a Font object
Is there any other reliable way of formatting the text so that I can change the font size without clobbering the other formatting. (Manipulating the RTF directly is OK, I'm not absolutely set on using WinForms to achieve this).
I've given up on trying to go through Winforms to fix this. As I'm applying the change to a whole document (rather than just one portion), it turns out that it's not too hard to modify the RTF directly.
In this case I'm interested in the font size, which is represented by the \fs command. So to replace all the 8.5pt text with 10pt text, you can replace \fs17 with \fs20. (Yes, RTF font sizes come in units of half a point, apparently).
This seems to work well enough, although it does feel like one of those "let's mangle our HTML using regular expressions" type solutions, so I'm not convinced that it's very robust.
Take a look at this:
Changing font for richtextbox without losing formatting
I think it's the same issue. LarsTech's solution is working perfectly for me.
I have a WPF page that has 2 ContentControls on it. Both of the ContentControls have an image, one being much smaller than the other. When mouse over the larger image I want to show a zoomed in view on the smaller image. Something very similar to this: http://www.trekbikes.com/us/en/bikes/urban/soho/soho/.
I think I want the larger image control to send out something that actually contains an image - which the smaller image control would pick up and display. Would this be a good place to take advantage of RoutedCommands? Can I pass along an image like that?
RoutedCommands seem a bit misplaced in this case... you'll want the mouse to respond smoothly and the last thing you want are commands to be fired off here and there.
You're probably better off using a VisualBrush. While Ian Griffith's example here is a magnifying glass (an early canonical VisualBrush example in WPF) you could easily adapt it to show a portion of your image.
