I'm going through the Windows 8 Bing Translator Walkthrough
I was able to follow everything except the XAML part. I'm very new to XAML. Below is what the walkthrough appears to recommend, however VS2012 indicated the markup is invalid, and the error displayed says "the property "content" is set more than once". Is this the only issue? Where this is set more than once?
<GridView ItemTemplate="{StaticResource TweetTemplate}" SelectionMode="None" ItemsSource="{Binding tweets}"></GridView>
<DataTemplate x:Key="TweetTemplate">
<Grid>
<Rectangle Fill="#FFDA713F" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="115" Margin="10,11,0,0"
VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="455" RadiusX="20" RadiusY="20"/>
<TextBlock Foreground="White" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="50"
Margin="176,12,0,0" TextWrapping="Wrap" x:Name="txtTweet"
Text="{Binding Title}" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="277" FontSize="12"/>
<TextBlock Foreground="White" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="50"
Margin="176,72,0,0" TextWrapping="Wrap" x:Name="txtTrans"
Text="{Binding translatedText}" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="277"
FontSize="12"/>
<Image Source="{Binding ImageUri}" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="89"
Margin="20,20,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="116"/>
<TextBlock Foreground="White" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="17"
Margin="24,109,0,0" TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="{Binding Author}"
VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="150" FontSize="10"/>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
...and no sooner do I post the question, I find the answer. the above needs to be arranged as follows:
Note that from the example in the link provided above the author used RefreshAppBarButtonStyle. This was changed to AppBarButtonStyle. I;m not sure I fully understand the xaml page yet, but at least I have a working framework to diagnose.
<Page.Resources>
<DataTemplate x:Key="TweetTemplate">
<Grid>
<Rectangle Fill="#FFDA713F" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="115" Margin="10,11,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="455" RadiusX="20" RadiusY="20"/>
<TextBlock Foreground="White" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="50" Margin="176,12,0,0" TextWrapping="Wrap" x:Name="txtTweet" Text="{Binding Title}" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="277" FontSize="12"/>

<Image Source="{Binding ImageUri}" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="89" Margin="20,20,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="116"/>
<TextBlock Foreground="White" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="17" Margin="24,109,0,0" TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="{Binding Author}" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="150" FontSize="10"/>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</Page.Resources>
<Grid Background="{StaticResource ApplicationPageBackgroundThemeBrush}">
<GridView ItemTemplate="{StaticResource TweetTemplate}" SelectionMode="None" ItemsSource="{Binding tweets}"></GridView>
</Grid>
<Page.BottomAppBar>
<AppBar x:Name="bottomAppBar" Padding="10,0,10,0">
<Grid>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" HorizontalAlignment="Right">
<TextBlock x:Name="txtPrompt" Text="Search Term: " Height="24" FontSize="24"></TextBlock>
<TextBox x:Name="txtSearchTerm" Width="300" Height="24"></TextBox>
<Button Style="{StaticResource AppBarButtonStyle}" Click="Button_Click_1" />
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
</AppBar>
</Page.BottomAppBar>
Hope this is also of use to someone else.

I want to add the TextBlock into the Button content. But if i add the TextBlock into the button content the TextBlock font style is changing.
<StackPanel HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Top">
<TextBlock Text="Vijaya dhas" FontSize="36" FontWeight="Black"/>
<TextBlock Text="Mobile App Developer Trainee" FontSize="26" FontWeight="SemiBold"/>
<TextBlock Text="Chennai" FontSize="24" FontWeight="Medium"/>
</StackPanel>
If i give like this my out put is:
If I give this into the button content:
<Button Height="200">
<Button.Content>
<StackPanel>
<TextBlock Text="Vijaya dhas" FontSize="36" FontWeight="Black"/>
<TextBlock Text="Mobile App Developer Trainee" FontSize="26" FontWeight="SemiBold"/>
<TextBlock Text="Chennai" FontSize="24" FontWeight="Medium"/>
</StackPanel>
</Button.Content>
</Button>
the out put is:
I don't want change the TextBlock font style. Please give any idea to keep the font style what ever it is.
Here i have attached my list box example for your review:
Without Using Button:
Using Button Content:
<!--LayoutRoot is the root grid where all page content is placed-->
<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="Transparent">

To Get rid of the button's default padding, margin and styles etc, set its template to "{x:Null}"
<Button Height="200" Template="{x:Null}">

I'm trying to put two Grids in a DataTemplate.
I'm getting the following error with my code shown below.

A data template can only have one visual tree but you are defining two grids. If you want the two grids to appear next to each other or one below the other, wrap them in a StackPanel and set the property Orientation accordingly.
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical">
<Grid>[...]</Grid>
<Grid>[...]</Grid>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
The below given is the code which use getting each row of a list,
<ListBox x:Name="List" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="575" Margin="6,0,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="443" SelectionChanged="List_SelectionChanged_1">
<ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Width="430" Height="80">
<Grid Margin="0,0,0,0" Height="90" Width="305">
<TextBlock HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="60" Margin="0,0,0,0" FontWeight="Medium" TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="{Binding Name}" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="268" FontSize="25"/>
<TextBlock HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="60" Margin="0,36,0,-1" TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="{Binding TaxType}" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="259" Foreground="Gray" FontSize="16"/>
</Grid>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Margin="0,0,0,0" FlowDirection="RightToLeft" Grid.Row="0" Width="125" HorizontalAlignment="Right">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Percentage}" FontSize="23" VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Right" FontFamily="Portable User Interface" Height="75"/>
</StackPanel>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>
Now how can i draw a line at the end of this stack panel(i.e between each row in the list)
What you have to do is,Add your current data within the stackpanel and then add Path mentioned in the previous answer and place these two within a stackpanel with Orientation = Horizontal
In your StackPanel underneath all other, apply this:
<Path Data="M0,0 L1,1 M0,1 L1,0" Stretch="Uniform" Stroke="Red" />
i have a listbox with around 150 items in it. the problem is that it is not taking any events. other listboxes have less than 90 items and they are working fine.
is there any limit or something which is preventing event handeling??

vjamit please consider using LongListSelector for Windows Phone 8 applications and not the old ListBox.
I have tested LLS with more than 5k items and it loads and plays just fine.
Also there is no need at all to wrap LLS in a ScrollViewer. Check below example:
<phone:PhoneApplicationPage.Resources>
<DataTemplate x:Key="LLSTemplate">
<Grid Tap="firstList_SelectionChanged_1">
<toolkit:GestureService.GestureListener>
<toolkit:GestureListener DragCompleted="GestureListener_DragCompleted"></toolkit:GestureListener>
</toolkit:GestureService.GestureListener>
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" Height="170" Width="150" Background="Transparent">
<!--Replace rectangle with image-->
<Image Source="{Binding image}" Stretch="UniformToFill" Margin="0,20" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" Height="140" Width="119"></Image>
<Grid Margin="0,-335,0,0" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Background="Transparent" Height="30">
<TextBlock TextAlignment="Center" Text="{Binding brandName}" HorizontalAlignment="Center" FontSize="15" TextWrapping="NoWrap" Foreground="#FFAA1F17" />
</Grid>
<StackPanel Width="165" Margin="0,-65,0,0" Background="Transparent">
<Grid HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Height="55" Background="#FF9B9A9A">
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Background="Transparent">
<TextBlock TextAlignment="Center" Text="{Binding productName}" TextWrapping="Wrap" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Foreground="White" FontSize="15" />
<TextBlock TextAlignment="Center" Text="{Binding price}" TextWrapping="Wrap" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Foreground="#99FFFFFF" FontSize="15" />
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
</StackPanel>
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</phone:PhoneApplicationPage.Resources>
<!--ContentPanel - place additional content here-->
<Grid x:Name="ContentPanel" Grid.Row="1" Margin="12,0,12,0">
<phone:LongListSelector x:Name="thirdList" Height="170" ItemTemplate="{StaticResource LLSTemplate}"/>
</Grid>
Let me know if the above works.
EDITED:
Try applying the following changes on the ScrollViewer: HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled". Tested with 500+ and it works. Seems like a "bug".
I want to align the contents or items of ExpanderView in horizontal layout instead of vertical layout. The ExpanderHeader is set dynamically and also its contents are added dynamically.
The xaml part and CustomeItemTemplate in app.xaml is as below
<toolkit:ExpanderView
Width="470"
Header="{Binding TaskName, Mode=TwoWay}"
x:Name="taskNameExpander"
Margin="5,10,5,10"
Foreground="#FF677389" FontSize="24" VerticalAlignment="Top"
HorizontalAlignment="Left"
ItemsSource="{Binding dateTime}"
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource CustomItemTemplate}"
HorizontalContentAlignment="Left">
</toolkit:ExpanderView>
<DataTemplate x:Key="CustomItemTemplate">
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Height="60" >
<TextBlock FontSize="16" Text="{Binding Date, Mode=OneWay}"
TextWrapping="Wrap" Foreground="#FF677389" Margin="0,6,0,0" Height="30" Width="100"/>
<TextBox BorderBrush="Goldenrod" BorderThickness="1" FontSize="16" Text="{Binding Time, Mode=TwoWay}" TextWrapping="Wrap" Foreground="#FF677389" Margin="0" Height="60" Width="150"/>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
Still i get the contents aligned vertically. Can someone point me what am i doing wrong here?
here is the sample code you have asked for
<Border BorderBrush="White" BorderThickness="1" Margin="5">
<ScrollViewer Width="Auto" HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Visible" VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled">
<toolkit:ExpanderView
Width="1600"
Header="{Binding TaskName, Mode=TwoWay}"
x:Name="taskNameExpander" Margin="5,10,5,10" Foreground="#FF677389" FontSize="24" VerticalAlignment="Top" HorizontalAlignment="Left"
ItemsSource="{Binding dateTime}"
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource CustomItemTemplate}"
ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Visible"
HorizontalContentAlignment="Left">
<toolkit:ExpanderView.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate >
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Width="Auto" ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Visible"/>
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</toolkit:ExpanderView.ItemsPanel>
</toolkit:ExpanderView>
</ScrollViewer>
</Border>
and my app.xaml has CustomItemTemplate definition as below
<DataTemplate x:Key="CustomItemTemplate">
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" Height="100" >
<TextBlock FontSize="16" Text="{Binding Date, Mode=OneWay}" TextWrapping="Wrap" Foreground="#FF677389" Margin="0,6,0,0" Height="30" Width="100"/>
<TextBox BorderBrush="Goldenrod" BorderThickness="1" FontSize="16" Text="{Binding Time, Mode=TwoWay}" TextWrapping="Wrap" Foreground="#FF677389" Margin="0" Height="60" Width="150">
<TextBox.InputScope>
<InputScope >
<InputScopeName NameValue="Number"></InputScopeName>
</InputScope>
</TextBox.InputScope>
</TextBox>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
I want to horizontally scroll only ExpanderView items. Rightnow it is scrolling but the whole ExpanderView is scrolling including its header. The header must be intact and only the items must scroll. How can i acheive it?
You should set the ItemsPanel for the ExpanderView control.
<toolkit:ExpanderView
Width="470" Height="100"
x:Name="taskNameExpander"
Margin="5,10,5,10"
FontSize="24" Background="White"
HorizontalAlignment="Left"
ItemsSource="1 2 3 4"
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource CustomItemTemplate}"
HorizontalContentAlignment="Left">
<toolkit:ExpanderView.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal"/>
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</toolkit:ExpanderView.ItemsPanel>
</toolkit:ExpanderView>
