windowsformshost

I have run into issues when hosting a WinForms form within a WindowsFormsHost and the tab navigation. To solve I have made this simple example: Created WPF Window (starting point of app) Created WinForms Form with two TextBox on it WPF window: Added WindowsFormsHost to it WPF window: Added OnLoaded handler WPF window: Added Textbox positioned under the WindowsFormsHost In the OnLoaded handler I got: System.Windows.Forms.Form f = new WinFormsForm(); f.TopLevel = false; f.FormBorderStyle = System.Windows.Forms.FormBorderStyle.None; this.windowsFormsHost1.Child = f; When I now run the application

I have a C# WPF 4.51 app. As far as I can tell, you can not bind to a property belonging to an object that is the child of a WPF WindowsFormsHost control. (If I am wrong in this assumption please show me how to do it): Bind with WindowsFormsHost In my case, I have a page that contains a WindowsFormsHost control whose Child object is a ScintillaNET editor control: https://github.com/jacobslusser/ScintillaNET <WindowsFormsHost x:Name="wfhScintillaTest" Width="625" Height="489" Margin="206,98,0,0" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top"> <WindowsFormsHost.Child> <sci:Scintilla x:Name=

I created ran into a problem where i want to bind a control to a windowsFormsHost control. But as we all know, the Child property is not a DP, so i created a wrapper. /// <summary> /// Bindable version of windows form hosts /// </summary> public class BindableWindowsFormsHost : WindowsFormsHost { /// <summary> /// Max value of the textbox /// </summary> public Control BindableChild { get { return (Control)GetValue(BindableChildProperty); } set { SetValue(BindableChildProperty, value); } } // Using a DependencyProperty as the backing store for Max. This enables animation, styling, binding, etc.

I know that default WPF behavior is to render WPF controls and then on top render WinForms, but are there any way to render WPF on top of WindowsFormsHost ? Edit : I have found a temp hack as well. When wpf control overlaps WindowsFormsHost , I change the size of the WindowsFormsHost (This only works when you have rectangular object which overlaps, doesn't work for other shapes.) This "airspace" issue is suppose to be fixed in WPF vNext. There are a couple solutions out there, such as here , here , and here . One way to do this is to host the WPF content in a transparent Popup or Window, which
