Get progress value of PullRefreshProgressControl in UWP - xaml

How can i get the progress value in code?
Here's the XAML:
<ptr:PullToRefreshBox x:Name="ptrBox" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Top" RefreshInvoked="ptrBox_RefreshInvoked">
<ScrollViewer>
<StackPanel Name="SPMain" Background="{ThemeResource ApplicationPageBackgroundThemeBrush}">
</StackPanel>
</ScrollViewer>
<ptr:PullToRefreshBox.TopIndicatorTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<ptr:PullRefreshProgressControl Name="ProgressPTR" Progress="300" PullToRefreshText="Pull to refresh" ReleaseToRefreshText="Release"/>
</DataTemplate>
</ptr:PullToRefreshBox.TopIndicatorTemplate>
</ptr:PullToRefreshBox>

Just write this
Progress="{Binding}"
in place of Progress="300"

Full height of content in listview with ItemsWrapGrid as panel template windows 10 app

I am trying to have the content of gridview cell to stretch the height so there is no scrolling within the cell.
Here's my code:
<Grid Grid.Row="1" Padding="50 10 50 10">
<ListView IsTapEnabled="False"
Background="White"
SizeChanged="categoryListView_SizeChanged"
x:Name="categoryListView"
Height="auto"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
VerticalAlignment="Stretch"
ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource stores}, Path=CollectionGroups}"
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource CategoriesList}">
<ListView.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<ItemsWrapGrid Orientation="Horizontal"/>
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</ListView.ItemsPanel>
</ListView>
</Grid>
and here is my data template:
<DataTemplate x:Key="CategoriesList">
<Grid x:Name="AlphabetGrid" VerticalAlignment="Top" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="0 0 20 0">
<TextBlock x:Name="CategoryName" FontSize="24" Text='{Binding Group.Key}' Foreground="#412141" FontWeight="Bold" HorizontalAlignment="Left" TextAlignment="Left"/>
<Grid Margin="0 30 0 0">
<ListView ItemsSource="{Binding Group.Items}" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Top">
<ListView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Grid Margin="0">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="*"></ColumnDefinition>
<ColumnDefinition Width="4*"></ColumnDefinition>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<TextBlock Grid.Column="0" x:Name="unit_number" FontSize="15" Text='{Binding unit}' Foreground="red" HorizontalAlignment="Left" TextAlignment="Left"/>
<TextBlock Grid.Column="1" x:Name="name" FontSize="15" Text='{Binding name}' Foreground="red" HorizontalAlignment="Left" TextAlignment="Left"/>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</ListView.ItemTemplate>
</ListView>
</Grid>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
How can I achieve this? Any recommendations?
This is how it looks right now.
I can reproduce your issue: it seems that ItemsWrapGrid uses some strange logic when row heights are calculated automatically. You can set its ItemHeight property manually to avoid this problem, but this solution is far from being elegant.
Alternatively you can use the WrapPanel XAML Control from the UWP Community Toolkit as an ItemsPanelTemplate for your ListView to make the items stretch their height to fit the content
<ListView>
<ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<controls:WrapPanel/>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
</ListView>
however, your grid is going to have a lot of empty space then
If that's not what you want, you can eliminate most of the empty spaces by changing the orientation of the WrapPanel from horizontal to vertical
and even further by not grouping your items into separate controls by category

Styling ListView in UWP

I found this question + answer to my problem here on stackoverflow, but for me its not totally clear where to change the
ListViewItemPresenter
I tried many things, but it seems like I cant find it on my own :(
Here is my XAML code for this frame:
<Page.Resources>
<DataTemplate x:Key="ItemListDataTemplate" x:DataType="data:Item">
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" HorizontalAlignment="Left">
<Image Name="image" Source="{x:Bind CoverImage}" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Width="150" />
<StackPanel Margin="20,20,0,0">
<TextBlock Text="{x:Bind Name}" HorizontalAlignment="Left" FontSize="16" Name="NameTextBlock"/>
<TextBlock Text="{x:Bind Description}" HorizontalAlignment="Left" FontSize="10" Name="DescriptionTextBlock"/>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<TextBlock Text="{x:Bind Price}" HorizontalAlignment="Left" FontSize="26" Name="PriceTextBlock"/>
<TextBlock Text="€" FontSize="26" Name="Currency" Margin="5,0,0,0"/>
</StackPanel>
</StackPanel>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</Page.Resources>
<Grid Background="{ThemeResource ApplicationPageBackgroundThemeBrush}">
<ListView ItemsSource="{x:Bind Items}"
ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Hidden"
ItemClick="ListView_ItemClick"
IsItemClickEnabled="True"
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource ItemListDataTemplate}"
>
</ListView>
</Grid>
Can someone help me our please? Thank you very much for your time!
There are two ways to edit ListViewItemPresenter in your Page:
You can copy the XAML Template from here (the first XAML codes block below Default Style). Add it to your Page.Resources. ListViewItemPresenter lies among those XAML codes, you can edit its Properties and this style will be applied to all the items of this page's ListView. Notes: don't add x:Key to this style.
Add a ListViewItem Control to your Page like below:
<Grid Background="{ThemeResource ApplicationPageBackgroundThemeBrush}">
<ListViewItem></ListViewItem>
</Grid>
Document Outline->Select ListViewItem->Edit Template->Edit a Copy:
Remove the x:Key Property of generated Style Resource, so that this style will be applied to all ListViewItem. Then you can edit the ListViewItemPresenter in the generated XAML Resource.
Just add your DataTemplate inside of the Listview.
Put it in the ItemTemplate property.
<ListView ItemsSource="{x:Bind Items}"
ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Hidden"
ItemClick="ListView_ItemClick"
IsItemClickEnabled="True" >
<ListView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" HorizontalAlignment="Left">
<Image Name="image" Source="{x:Bind CoverImage}" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Width="150" />
<StackPanel Margin="20,20,0,0">
<TextBlock Text="{x:Bind Name}" HorizontalAlignment="Left" FontSize="16" Name="NameTextBlock"/>
<TextBlock Text="{x:Bind Description}" HorizontalAlignment="Left" FontSize="10" Name="DescriptionTextBlock"/>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<TextBlock Text="{x:Bind Price}" HorizontalAlignment="Left" FontSize="26" Name="PriceTextBlock"/>
<TextBlock Text="€" FontSize="26" Name="Currency" Margin="5,0,0,0"/>
</StackPanel>
</StackPanel>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</ListView.ItemTemplate>
</ListView>

Windows 8 phone Stackpanel

in my app i would like multiply section grids, these then go done the page one recantgle after another. The problem if i would like to add more sections but they go down below the app design. I have tried to add a stackpanel and stackviewer but neither work. The user should be able to scroll down and see all the sections.
Thank you in advance
The code looks somewhat like this;
<Grid Background="Teal">
<Grid HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="163" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="480">
</Grid>
<Grid Height="130" VerticalAlignment="Top" Margin="0,164,0,0">
</Grid>
<Grid Height="140" VerticalAlignment="Top" Margin="0,295,0,0">
</Grid>
<Grid x:Name="ContentPanel" Margin="0,435,0,129">
</Grid>
<Grid x:Name="ContentPanel2" Margin="0,435,0,129">
</Grid>
</Grid>
The user should be able to scroll down the page and see all the grids, as one grid is off the page.
You need to combine the <StackPanel> with a <ScrollViewer> to get the scrollable view, so something like:
<Grid Background="Teal">
<ScrollViewer>
<StackPanel>
<Grid HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="163" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="480">
...
</Grid>
<Grid Height="130" VerticalAlignment="Top">
...
</Grid>
<Grid Height="140" VerticalAlignment="Top">
...
</Grid>
<Grid x:Name="ContentPanel">
...
</Grid>
<Grid x:Name="ContentPanel2">
...
</Grid>
</StackPanel>
</ScrollViewer>
</Grid>

LongListSelector centered items unexpected position change

I have a LongListSelector control on a page in my Windows Phone 8 app. For this control I set a GroupHeaderTemplate and a ItemTemplate and both contain a TextBlock. If I align the TextBlock controls to center I have some weird behavior (maybe not weird but unexplainable to me at the moment). When I open the page on my phone the centered text moves ca. 5px to the right. The move is visible to the user (it's happening after the page is loaded). I tried to solve this problem but all margin changes (and other trials) did not change the behavior and my friend Google couldn't help me either. Can some explain to my why this is happening and how to solve this?
My code (simplified):
<Grid x:Name="ContentPanel" Grid.Row="1" Margin="0">
<phone:LongListSelector x:Name="longList" LayoutMode="List" HideEmptyGroups ="true" Margin="5,0,5,5" ItemsSource="{Binding List, Mode=OneWay}" IsGroupingEnabled="True" Background="Transparent" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch">
<phone:LongListSelector.Resources>
<DataTemplate x:Key="itemTemplate">
<Grid Margin="10,10,10,0" Background="#FFF3F1F1" HorizontalAlignment="Left">
<TextBlock x:Name="name" Margin="10" TextWrapping="NoWrap" Text="{Binding Name}" VerticalAlignment="Center" FontSize="40"/>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
<DataTemplate x:Key="groupHeaderTemplate">
<Grid Margin="10,10,10,0" Background="#FFF3F1F1" HorizontalAlignment="Center">
<TextBlock x:Name="name" Margin="10" TextWrapping="NoWrap" Text="test" VerticalAlignment="Center" FontSize="40"/>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</phone:LongListSelector.Resources>
<!--<phone:LongListSelector.JumpListStyle>
<StaticResource ResourceKey="jumpListStyle"/>
</phone:LongListSelector.JumpListStyle>-->
<phone:LongListSelector.GroupHeaderTemplate>
<StaticResource ResourceKey="groupHeaderTemplate"/>
</phone:LongListSelector.GroupHeaderTemplate>
<phone:LongListSelector.ItemTemplate>
<StaticResource ResourceKey="itemTemplate"/>
</phone:LongListSelector.ItemTemplate>
<i:Interaction.Triggers>
<i:EventTrigger EventName="SelectionChanged">
<i:InvokeCommandAction Command="{Binding SelectItemCommand}"
CommandParameter="{Binding SelectedItem, ElementName=longList}"/>
</i:EventTrigger>
</i:Interaction.Triggers>
</phone:LongListSelector>
</Grid>
Thanks in advance

WP scrolling issue with listbox and scrollviewer

Doesnt seem to be scrolling at the List area. i seem to have figured out that the issue is with Scrollviewer not able to interact where ListBox exists. I verified that the scrolling is happening perfectly fine by setting IsHitTestVisible property of ListBox to be false.
Can someone help me out!
Answering my own question! Just as AMR commented it, I figured out that I don't need the scroll viewer, I just set the height of ListBox and scrolling worked fine! :)
