I have modified my treeview to look like an Org chart using the example shown in the Code Project website (Author Josh Smith). I need connecting lines in the treeview to make it look exact to org chart. I found references pointing to the below site
http://wpfblog.info/2008/05/26/turning-a-treeview-into-an-org-chart-with-connectors/
But I am not able to view the content. Probably the webpage has been moved. Can anybody help?
Using the Way Back Machine web.archive.org I found this.

We are adding help files to our WPF application in Visual Studio 2010. We have not been able to find so far a method that we have been able to use.
We have some HTML help files, currently they are just in a directory, not added to the WPF project.
We don't have index or search.
I have seen that maybe we can do something with cmh, but this seems quite old and outdated now.
Ideally we would like all this in WPF, but if its not possible we need another solution.
We would like to be able to hit F1, have our main help page displayed (we have this now, it opens in our browser) and additionally add Index and Search to our main help page.
Can anyone point us in the right direction please?
Maybe you should take a look at the Process.Start Method page on MSDN. In particular, the Process.Start Method (String) page has a code example showing how to open web pages from a WPF application.
To do this inside a WPF application, look at the WebBrowser Class page at MSDN. This also provides a code example of loading a web page into your application.
EDIT >>> After re-reading your post, I realise that I missed the bit about searching and indexing. Surely, you can just search through the web pages yourself? Just open each page and use something like
if (webPageContent.Contains(searchTerm)) return webPageContent;
I am new to Silverlight. How would I go about creating a control for users to tag content.
I would like it to work like it does it StackOverflow i.e. Autocomplete and when you press space it inserts the tag in a box with a remove button. I want the control to be bindable to a collection of strings.
If someone can just point me in the right direction to get me started I would be very grateful.
You need to start with an AutoComplete Textbox, there is already one available in the Silverlight Toolkit. Tim Heuer has several examples using it (he actually creates one himself in one of his posts somewhere), you can find one sample here. Once you have this in place, the rest of the control is pretty simple.
Been thinking about this for hours now. Im building a simple slideshow application, where the user creates slides through a web application and publishes them to a wpf "player". The user is allowed to create two types of slides one based on html and one based on xaml (thought this would be easy).
When i get the slide to the player i have to determine how to render/load the slide. The HTML slide i convert to xaml (code i found on msdn) as a flowdocument (but now what to do with it?). The Xaml i just get in "raw" xaml.
My plan is to convert both of these to xaml, then have the slide load the xaml in someway and display it, but how? And would this setup be the proper architecture? please bear in mind that this is a small player application.
Any help on either architecture or on how to display these are highly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Brian
Look at the Slide.Show project from Vertigo. It a WPF project released under codeplex. It may give you ideas on the design.
Why not just display them in the web page? There are a huge number of slideshow applications for the web already.
Q1. Which would be the best resource or tutorial to setup a simple WPF Organization Chart or Tree for an organization object (self referencing).I would like to have a button when clicked which would show an organization chart (hierarchical) tree of the various departments and sub-department.I'm looking for a base to start code + control.
Q2.Are there any report software like Crystal Report or WPF that could render something like that?
Q1: 1 link from a blog Archived Version of above from Wayback
Another one from code project
Q2: Commercial printing control
You could take a look at Family.Show which has a very nice genealogical diagram. It's not an out of the box solution for making an organizational chart, but it's a good example how to do it. The source code is available on CodePlex.
A few years late but, Infragistics has an org chart WPF control as well.

I've searched around for a while today, but I haven't been able to come up with an AutoComplete TextBox code sample for Silverlight 2 Beta 2. The most promising reference was found on nikhilk.net but the online demo doesn't currently render and after downloading a getting the code to compile with Beta 2, I couldn't get the Silverlight plugin it to render either. I think it is fair to say it is a compatibility issue, but I'm not sure. Does anyone have any alternate sample code or implementation suggestions?
You may want to take a look at my blog: http://weblogs.manas.com.ar/ary/2008/09/26/autocomplete-in-silverlight/
You simply write in your XAML:
manas:Autocomplete.Suggest="DoSuggest"
and then in the class file, you need to implement that method, which report suggestions to a delegate. The options can be hardcoded, requested to a web service, or whaterver.
Take a look at the combobox(very close to a autocomplete text box) at worksight's blog Silverlight ComboBox
There is also another good example here:
http://silvermail.com.au
This is a Silverlight based mail client that looks a little like Outlook. When I go to send mail and start typing in the "To" text box, an auto-complete pops up and populates the control for me based on values in a list... I think it automatically stores the addresses in isolated storage, but that's just a guess.
This is a really handy tool for checking mail while away from my home PC... at work for example... and it is loaded with impressive Silverlight functionality.
