How can i set two diferent Background for the Pivot Items, for example blue for "All" and red for "NotAll".
<Pivot x:Name="Pivot" HorizontalContentAlignment="Center"">
<PivotItem Header="All" x:Name="All">
<ListView
ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource AllList}}"
SelectionMode="None">
</ListView>
</PivotItem>
<PivotItem x:Name="NotAll" Header="Not All">
<ListView
ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource NotAllList}}"
SelectionMode="None">
</ListView>
</PivotItem>
</Pivot>
If you just want to set background color of the whole pivot item, you can set its Background property:
<Pivot x:Name="Pivot" HorizontalContentAlignment="Center">
<PivotItem Background="Blue" ...>
...
</PivotItem>
<PivotItem Background="Red" ...>
...
</PivotItem>
</Pivot>
Alternatively, if you want to change the color of the header texts, you can use complex property syntax and just set the headers to a custom control:
<PivotItem x:Name="NotAll">
<PivotItem.Header>
<TextBlock Foreground="Red" Text="Not all" />
</PivotItem.Header>
...
</PivotItem>
I have a ListView in my UWP application with this code.
<ListView Name="menuListView" HorizontalAlignment="Center"
Grid.Row="1" SelectionChanged="ListView_SelectionChanged"
BorderThickness="0,0,0,5" SelectedIndex="0"
Grid.ColumnSpan="2">
<ListView.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal"></StackPanel>
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</ListView.ItemsPanel>
<TextBlock Name="dayTB" Text="Day" Margin="25 0 0 0" FontSize="18" />
<TextBlock Name="weekTB" Text="Week" Margin="25 0 0 0" FontSize="18" />
<TextBlock Name="monthTB" Text="Month" Margin="25 0 0 0" FontSize="18" />
</ListView>
It looks like this.
I am trying to make it look like this for quite some time now, but my tries are not successful.
Is there a way to achieve this?
Any help would be appreciated.
The right control used in the picture, is the Pivot, not ListView.
try this basic Pivot XAML code, and play around it
<Pivot Title="EMAIL">
<PivotItem Header="All">
<TextBlock Text="all emails go here." />
</PivotItem>
<PivotItem Header="Unread">
<TextBlock Text="unread emails go here." />
</PivotItem>
<PivotItem Header="Flagged">
<TextBlock Text="flagged emails go here." />
</PivotItem>
<PivotItem Header="Urgent">
<TextBlock Text="urgent emails go here." />
</PivotItem>
</Pivot>
I am currently learning Windows Phone 8.1 app development. I am going through this Channel 9 series of video tutorials. They are useful but unfortunately are for Windows Phone 8, not 8.1 and so there are some things I can't follow. I am stuck in such a situation.
I want to have the following layout driven by some data:
So far I have the following code:
<Pivot x:Uid="Pvt">
<PivotItem Header="{Binding Animals.Title}">
<GridView ItemsSource="{Binding Animals.Items}">
<GridView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<!-- not sure what would go in here -->
</DataTemplate>
</GridView.ItemTemplate>
</GridView>
</PivotItem>
</Pivot>
But not sure what element I'm supposed to have in the <DataTemplate>!
Gridview works fine in Windows Phone apps. Here is code from one of my apps in the app store. You need to set the size of the outer most 'Grid' of the DataTemplate. You won't be able to get the grids to fit the screen exactly unless you do some dynamic sizing after the UI is loaded.
<GridView Grid.Row="2" Margin="0,0,0,0"
ItemsSource="{Binding InfoTypeList}"
SelectionMode="None"
IsItemClickEnabled="True"
ItemClick="GridView_ItemClick">
<GridView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Grid HorizontalAlignment="Left" Width="120" Height="120">
<Border Background="{ThemeResource PhoneAccentBrush}">
<Image Source="{Binding ImagePath}" Stretch="Uniform" Margin="10,10,10,20"/>
</Border>
<StackPanel VerticalAlignment="Bottom">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}" Foreground="{ThemeResource ListViewItemOverlayForegroundThemeBrush}" Style="{StaticResource BaseTextBlockStyle}" FontSize="18" HorizontalAlignment="Center" FontWeight="SemiBold" IsTextScaleFactorEnabled="False"/>
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</GridView.ItemTemplate>
<GridView.ItemContainerStyle>
<Style TargetType="FrameworkElement">
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="20 20 0 0"/>
</Style>
</GridView.ItemContainerStyle>
</GridView>
EDIT:
I played around with it and you can get it to look more like your picture (fit the items to the screen) by wrapping your GridView in a Viewbox and then limiting the number of rows by adding this to your GridView:
<GridView.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<WrapGrid Orientation="Vertical" MaximumRowsOrColumns="2" />
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</GridView.ItemsPanel>
You will have to play around with your margins to get the correct spacing.
I started off with a Grouped Items Page template and have my data displaying in groups. I added some margins around these items to improve spacing, but now when I hover over these items, the margin area shows as highlighted. I'm sure this is an easy one for xaml gurus. Please assist!!
Here's my markup:
<GridView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<!-- ******************* here is my margins ******************* -->
<Border BorderBrush="LightGray" BorderThickness="2" Margin="0,0,20,20">
<Grid HorizontalAlignment="Left" Width="390" Height="190">
<Grid.Background>
<ImageBrush ImageSource="/Assets/default.png" Stretch="None"/>
</Grid.Background>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" VerticalAlignment="Top">
<Image VerticalAlignment="Top" Stretch="None" Source="{Binding ImageUrl}" Margin="10,10,0,0"/>
<StackPanel MaxWidth="270">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Summary}"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Brand}" />
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Detail}" TextWrapping="Wrap" />
</StackPanel>
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
</Border>
</DataTemplate>
</GridView.ItemTemplate>
Your ItemTemplate just populates over the existing style template for the GridViewItem Style which if you look in the default template shown in that link you'll see a Rectangle named "PointerOverBorder" which is shown (via the VisualStateManager) in the PointerOver state with its Fill set to ListViewItemPointerOverBackgroundThemeBrush.
You could go into the template (right-click, edit template) and remove it, or add your margins, or make it transparent or a number of options. Or could just overwrite the brush resource on the instance to be transparent or something kind of like;
<blah.Resources>
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="ListViewItemPointerOverBackgroundThemeBrush" Color="Transparent" />
</blah.Resources>
Hope this helps.
I can not figure out what I did wrong. I have a Usercontrol that has a vertical progressbar and under it a label.
<UserControl x:Class="IFramedInBrowser.Code"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
mc:Ignorable="d" Height="150" Width="15">
<Grid Width="120" Height="15" >
<StackPanel Width="120" Height="15" >
<ProgressBar Grid.Row="0" Value="{Binding Path=Percent}" Maximum="100" Width="120" Height="15" />
</StackPanel>
<TextBlock Grid.Row="1" Height="30" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Name="textBlock1" Text="{Binding Path=Symbol.Name}" VerticalAlignment="Top" >
<TextBlock.RenderTransform>
<RotateTransform Angle="90"/>
</TextBlock.RenderTransform>
</TextBlock>
<Grid.RenderTransform>
<RotateTransform Angle="-90"/>
</Grid.RenderTransform>
</Grid>
</UserControl>
This usercontrol is then used in a ItemsControl
<ItemsControl x:Name="HorizontalListBox"
ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource MyViewModel}, Path=List}"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
HorizontalContentAlignment="Center" Height="150"
>
<ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal"/>
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<my:Code DataContext="{Binding}">
</my:Code>
</DataTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
</ItemsControl>
It should look like a piano keybord at the end...
After the rotation transformation the progressbar is chopped... What did I dowrong? How to fix this?
You can try to add different background colors to all controls to find out sizes of controls.
Also SilverlightSpy is now free for read only and you can go through the real visual tree at runtime.
Anyway, I would suggest to change the orientation of ProgressBar by customizing its template.
This is a clipping issue. You are setting too many heights and widths everywhere and it's confusing to know which one is in control of dimensions. Also, the stacking in the ListBox works on the layout and the RotateTransform is only effective on the final visual pass, so it's rotating a clipped progress bar.
You should follow jumbo's advice and create a vertical progress bar by modifying the template, not by rotation.
If you don't want to create the template, then you need to remove the main Grid you have in the UserControl and use a Canvas instead. Canvases don't clip. They let your elements float freely, which is probably what you want.
