I've got most of this recreated, except for changing the background color once you select an item. Here's the code I'm using to create this: <ListView Margin="236,34,17,144" Name="listView1"

After selecting ListBox item programmatically it is needed to press down\up key two times to move the selection. Any suggestions? View: <ListBox Name="lbActions" Canvas.Left="10" Canvas.Top="10" Width="260" Height="180"> <ListBoxItem Name="Open" IsSelected="true" Content="Open"></ListBoxItem> <ListBoxItem Name="Enter" Content="Enter"></ListBoxItem> <ListBoxItem Name="Print" Content="Print"></ListBoxItem> </ListBox> Code: public View() { lbActions.Focus(); lbActions.SelectedIndex = 0; //not helps ((ListBoxItem) lbActions.SelectedItem).Focus(); //not helps either } Don't set the focus to the

I have a WPF ListBox control and I'm setting its ItemsSource to a collection of item objects. How can I bind the IsSelected property of the ListBoxItem to a Selected property of a corresponding item object without having an instance of the object to set as a Binding.Source ?

I have a typical MVVM scenario: I have a ListBox that is binded to a List of StepsViewModels. I define a DataTemplate so that StepViewModels are rendered as StepViews. The StepView UserControl have a set of labels and TextBoxs. What I want to do is to select the ListBoxItem that is wrapping the StepView when a textBox is focused. I've tried to create a style for my TextBoxs with the following trigger: <Trigger Property="IsFocused" Value="true"> <Setter TargetName="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type ListBoxItem}}}" Property="IsSelected" Value="True"/

I have a problem with my ListBoxItem 's on a Windows Phone 8 app, while trying to get them to stretch across all the width of the ListBox . My ListBox : <ListBox ItemsSource="{Binding Events}" behaviors:ItemClickCommandBehavior.Command="{Binding EventSelectedCommand}" ItemTemplate="{StaticResource EventListTemplateSelector}"/> And its DataTemplates are in a seperate xaml resource file: <DataTemplate x:Key="EventListHeaderTemplate"> <Border HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"> <Grid Height="50"> <Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <ColumnDefinition Width="*"/> <ColumnDefinition Width="6*"/> </Grid

Ehm, umm, this means some lines should be two-lined in size. My boss think this is more simple solution, than limit displayed text to fit width and don't like horizontal scroll bar >_< lst.DrawMode = System.Windows.Forms.DrawMode.OwnerDrawVariable; lst.MeasureItem += lst_MeasureItem; lst.DrawItem += lst_DrawItem; private void lst_MeasureItem(object sender, MeasureItemEventArgs e) { e.ItemHeight = (int)e.Graphics.MeasureString(lst.Items[e.Index].ToString(), lst.Font, lst.Width).Height; } private void lst_DrawItem(object sender, DrawItemEventArgs e) { e.DrawBackground(); e.DrawFocusRectangle();
