Blend 3 - Keyboard Shortcut to switch between design and xaml views?

馋奶兔 提交于 2019-12-12 01:17:09
问题 As I'm not more of a developer than a designer I like to hand code my xaml rather than using draggy-droppy stuff. Since silverlight 3 - the design preview in VS2008 has disappeared. It wasn't that great but at least I got a visual representation of my markup without having to run the application. So I installed Blend 3 and I'd still like to hand code my xaml. Does anyone know a keyboard shortcut to switch between design view and xaml view - I've tried editing the xaml in VS then tabbing over

强颜欢笑 提交于 2019-12-11 15:46:31
问题 I am making a Silverlight Application using expression Blend 4.0. I have mainpage.xaml and I've given the user control (loginpage.xaml) on it. Then I have the login button in user control (loginpage.xaml). I have prepared the animation also on the mainpage.xaml, so that when the user click the login button, then the animation is started. I have no idea what should the command I give in the login button so that the animation will start when the user click it. or would you like to give another

Multi level grid in Expression Blend

旧街凉风 提交于 2019-12-11 14:16:42
问题 I have been playing with Expressions Blend 4 for the past few days, and I'm starting to get a hang of it. I just recently started playing with the Data binding and find it really easy and powerful. For prototyping purposes, there is no better application. I'm currently prototyping a Silverlight screen with a potential multi-level grid. Is there any way to do this with Blend? I tried creating a multi-level data sample (I added a collection data to a collection data) and dragged it to a

Run time View of WPF Window doesn't match the Design View of Expression Blend

ⅰ亾dé卋堺 提交于 2019-12-11 12:09:21
问题 Following on from this question, I understand that Visual Studio 2008 doesn't accurately render Designs made on Expression Blend. The additional problem I have is, the View of the Window doesn't match with the Design shown on Blend. I am using Expression Blend 2.0, and Visual Studio 2008(.NET 3.5). Could this have something to do with it? The design is very simple, just some buttons placed next to each other. I understand without the XAML code, it would be difficult to address the exact

Expression Blend Interaction: How to set Trigger to Look for IsEnabled Value of Button?

瘦欲@ 提交于 2019-12-11 09:19:08
问题 I am a designer using Expression Blend 4 and our environment is .NET 3.5. This issue may be simple to you guys, but it is causing me quite a problem. I need to apply an interaction to a button that will trigger a state when the button becomes enabled. On the button, the developer has a Boolean value associated with the IsEnabled property. I have to supply the EventTrigger with an EventName, and the only thing that I can think of is IsEnabledChanged. However, when I run the app, this does

Using Microsoft Surface controls in Expression Blend

五迷三道 提交于 2019-12-11 08:09:41
问题 This seems like it should be a simple thing, but I can't work it out; how do I get Microsoft Surface controls into Expression Blend so I can retemplate them? I have the surface SDK DLLs as references in a new Expression Blend WPF project, but the controls are not available in the 'Assets' dialog, nor can they be added to the XAML directly... Cheers, rJ 回答1: I haven't worked with Surface, but from what I've read they should just show up. They might not be readily apparent in the Assets tab,

Using Caliburn.Micro with Expression Blend in WP7

半腔热情 提交于 2019-12-11 06:23:16
问题 I just creating a little WP7 project using Caliburn.Micro as the MVVM framework, but I'm not sure of the best way of getting the project to work well with either Expression Blend or the Visual Studio designer. How are people doing their design with Calibun.Micro? Am I best to ignore the conventions and use traditional binding mechanics so that Blend will understand the views? Is there any way to import Caliburn binding logic into Blend so that it recognises the conventions? At the moment all

WPF using VisualStateManager to animate panels in & out

冷暖自知 提交于 2019-12-11 04:44:32
问题 I'm hoping what I'm trying to do is possible using Visual States... What I want to do is have a button that toggles a stackPanel between two states: 'In' and 'Out'. I would then call VisualStateManager.GoToState on the button's click event, to toggle between the two states. The problem I've run into is I can't figure out how to attach states to the StackPanel. It won't let me using Expression Blend. So I'm stuck... Is there anyway to animate in and out this panel using VisualStateManager? (I

How can I change a cell of a DataGrid depending on the data it is bound to using MVVM in Silverlight?

那年仲夏 提交于 2019-12-11 04:09:35
问题 I recently posted the same question but for WPF and got an answer. The thing is that answer doesn't work in Silverlight. Here is the situation: I'm using the MVVM Light Toolkit and I have a DataGrid bound to an ObservableCollection. There is only one text column displayed. I'd like the text of the cell to be Bold or Normal depending on a boolean that is inside the object displayed. To make it work in WCF i used a Style with a Syle.Trigger: <DataGrid.Resources> <Style x:Key="Style1" TargetType

When to make a user control using expression blend

你说的曾经没有我的故事 提交于 2019-12-11 03:04:56
问题 So I am working on a new app and I am using Expression Blend (for the first time) to create the layout and styles etc. but I have a question about when I would want to create a user control. I have a borer that I want to use as the background for lots of stuff, however it is really a border in a border - then we will drop whatever controls into it. I want to reuse this of course, what is the best way to do that. I am thinking I want to make it into a user control? The problem is unlike a
