void App16::MainPage::Button_Click(Platform::Object^ sender, Windows::UI::Xaml::RoutedEventArgs^ e)
{
this->Frame->Navigate(page2::typeid);
}
page2 is not being recognized. I don't know what should be the correct syntax in C++.
Do the following:
add #include "page2.xaml.h" at the beginning of the MainPage.xaml.cpp.
add using namespace Windows::UI::Xaml::Interop; to enable you use TypeName struct.
In button click event, navigate the page by using the following code. this->Frame->Navigate(TypeName(page2::typeid));

I'm trying to declare a button as default in UWP app but receive an error:
The property 'IsDefault' was not found in type 'Button'
How can I make a default button in UWP app?
I down know what IsDefault is in WPF but to get if a button is pressed in UWP you can use CoreWindow.GetForCurrentThread().KeyDown. Create a Method that will be called from when the button is pressed or VirtualKey.Enter is clicked.
public MainPage()
{
this.InitializeComponent();
CoreWindow.GetForCurrentThread().KeyDown += MainPage_KeyDown; ;
}
private void MainPage_KeyDown(CoreWindow sender, KeyEventArgs args)
{
switch (args.VirtualKey)
{
case Windows.System.VirtualKey.Enter:
// handler for enter key
break;
default:
break;
}
}
You can use key down event which you can place on any textbox for example if you are making a login page then probably there will be 2 textboxes for username and password then just add key down event handler to textbox as it will be the last mandatory field like this:
<PasswordBox KeyDown="PasswordKeyDown"/>
then you can handle this event as:
using System.Windows.Input;
private void PasswordKeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Key == Key.Enter)
Login();
}
Hope it will help you :)
There is not easy or clean way to solve your problem because IsDefault is not available for uwp apps.
if you are using MVVM or you want to reuse your code I recommend you to use Behaviors and follow the examples that the other guys posted.
I need a Button which user can invoke by pressing the ENTER key.
In an UWP app, by default a Button can be invoked by pressing the Enter key. So I guess what you want is setting the focus on this Button when there are some other UIElements in your page.
You can refer to Keyboard navigation among UI elements,
By default, the tab order of controls is the same as the order in which they are added to a design surface, listed in XAML, or programmatically added to a container.
To focus on the Button which is not the first element, you can just give the TabIndex="1" property to your Button, this property can make your Button get focus whenever the page is loaded, but if you change the focus on other controls in this page, you will need to reselect this button by mouse clicking, touching or TAB key.
I have been trying to get the back button to work for windows phone using vb, however I cant find anything on the internet, anything I do find is for c#
Can someone please tell me how I can make the back button go to the previous page as every time the back button is pressed it quits out of the app.
thanks
I'm not good at VB so, I'll make it in C# and consider to do it in your way in VB
In the Constructor of a page, write this code :
Windows.Phone.UI.Input.HardwareButtons.BackPressed += HardwareButtons_BackPressed;
In the Page's class, write this :
void HardwareButtons_BackPressed(object sender, Windows.Phone.UI.Input.BackPressedEventArgs e)
{
if (this.Frame.CanGoBack)
{
this.Frame.GoBack();
}
else
{
Application.Current.Exit();
}
}
Consider to write it in all pages.
I navigate forward using Frame.Navigate but when I press the hardware back key on my phone I end up on the start screen and not the page I just visited.
What might be wrong?
The reason behind your problem is, you are creating a Blank Page. If you're creating a blank page, you should define what the app has to do when the back button is fired.
Better, consider adding "Basic page". It will have backstack by nature. If you are navigating from the MainPage to the Basic Page and when you pressed back button at the Basic Page it will back to the MainPage.
I hope this could solve your problem!
If you want to use Blank Page in your application, you need to use like this on your page where you wanna override back button:
add this in your header:
using Windows.Phone.UI.Input;
and then in your constructor:
HardwareButtons.BackPressed += HardwareButtons_BackPressed;
add this anywhere in your code:
void HardwareButtons_BackPressed(object sender, BackPressedEventArgs e)
{
HardwareButtons.BackPressed -= HardwareButtons_BackPressed;
this.Frame.Navigate(typeof(MainPage));
e.Handled = true;
}
You've probably forgotten to use the NavigationHelper included in the template of the universal app.
You should use it like this on every page:
NavigationHelper _navigationHelper;
public LoginPage()
{
this.InitializeComponent();
_navigationHelper = new NavigationHelper(this);
}
I have to create a custom wizard to develop a Eclipse Plug-in. I wish to use a DirectoryDialog but I can't get work with the other elements. I'm seeing that the DirectoyDialog is used in a "extends composite" class, but, is there any way to use in a "wizardPage"?
Thanks at all!
org.eclipse.swt.widgets.DirectoryDialog extends Dialog and can only be used as a pop-up dialog. It cannot be embedded in a wizard.
You can put a Button on the wizard page that displays the directory dialog when clicked.
Use the following code in your WizardPage
Button btnBrowse = new Button(container, SWT.NONE);
btnBrowse.setText("Browse..");
btnBrowse.addListener(SWT.Selection, new Listener() {
#Override
public void handleEvent(Event e) {
DirectoryDialog dirDialog = new DirectoryDialog(getShell());
dirDialog.setText("Select the parent directory for tools");
String location = dirDialog.open();
}
});
getShell() api used in 4th line is from WizardPage class.
i am facing one problem in SCSF.
I have two workspaces
MdiWorkspace
DeckWorkspace
i have two views in a module
Viewer (display in mdiworkspace)
Property Viewer (in deckworkspace)
in Viewer i have a button in toolbar whose purpose is to display PropertyViewer (another View).
how can i display this PropertyViewer in deckworkspace agaist button click event.
NOTE: i am not using Command[CommandName].AddInvoker(control, "click:) and CommandHandler
I'm going to assume your toolbar sits in a SmartPart that implements the MVP pattern. Have the button click event handler in the SmartPart fire an event that its presenter will handle. Your presenter code would look like this:
// Presenter code
protected override void OnViewSet()
{
this.View.ToolbarButtonClick += View_ToolbarButtonClick;
}
public void View_ToolbarButtonClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// remove the handler so the property viewer
// will only be added the first time
this.View.OnToolbarButtonClick -= View_ToolbarButtonClick;
var propertyView = new PropertyViewer();
this.WorkItem.Workspaces[WorkspaceNames.MyDeckWorkspace].Show(propertyView);
}
