When my Silverlight page loads, I want to set focus on a control. Simple problem with a not-so-obvious solution.
I tried the following with no luck. The page loads but my control does not have focus.
public MainPage()
{
InitializeComponent();
if( !DesignerProperties.IsInDesignTool )
{
// some init code goes here...
this.Loaded += ( s, e ) =>
{
this.InitFocus();
};
}
}
private void InitFocus()
{
this.PropNumTextBox.Focus();
}
The solution is to use System.Windows.Browser.HtmlPage.Plugin.Focus(). When I call this prior to calling Focus on my initial control, it works as expected. The correct code looks as follows:
public MainPage()
{
InitializeComponent();
if( !DesignerProperties.IsInDesignTool )
{
// init code here...
this.Loaded += ( s, e ) =>
{
this.InitFocus();
};
}
}
private void InitFocus()
{
// this call is necessary to initialize focus on page load
System.Windows.Browser.HtmlPage.Plugin.Focus();
this.PropNumTextBox.Focus();
}

I am developing a new external command for Revit. it needs a progress bar + a button to cancel its execution in any moment.
In order to get it, I haver implemented a external event.
Implementing an external event handler with de code to be executed by the command.
public class GestorDeEventoExterno : IExternalEventHandler
{
public bool CancellationRequested { get; set; }
private VentanaDeProgreso progressAndcancelWindow;
private EventWaitHandle eventWait;
public void Execute(UIApplication aplicacionDeLaIU)
{
using (this.eventWait = new AutoResetEvent(false))
{
// New thread for the progress bar.
Thread progressBarThread = new Thread(new ThreadStart(() =>
{
// Populating the progress bar window.
this.progressAndcancelWindow = new VentanaDeProgreso(this);
progressAndcancelWindow.Show();
// Chenge the state of the wait event.
this.eventWait.Set();
Dispatcher.Run();
}));
progressBarThread.SetApartmentState(ApartmentState.STA);
progressBarThread.IsBackground = true;
progressBarThread.Start();
this.eventWait.WaitOne();
}
// Get the current revit document.
Document documentoActivo = aplicacionDeLaIU.ActiveUIDocument.Document;
// Code to simulate the revit command operation.
for (int i = 0;
i <= 100;
i++)
{
// Code to be executed if a cancellation has been requested.
if (this.CancellationRequested)
{
TaskDialog.Show("Test", "Cancel");
this.progressAndcancelWindow.Dispatcher.Invoke(new Action(this.progressAndcancelWindow.Close));
return;
}
this.progressAndcancelWindow.ActualizarProgreso($"loop number: {i}", i, 100);
Thread.Sleep(100);
}
this.progressAndcancelWindow.Dispatcher.Invoke(new Action(this.progressAndcancelWindow.Close));
TaskDialog.Show("Test", "END");
}
public string GetName()
{
return "test";
}
}
Implementing an external command to register the external event and populate the main window
public class Class1 : IExternalCommand
{
public Result Execute(
ExternalCommandData externalCommandData,
ref string message,
ElementSet elements)
{
// Registering the external event.
GestorDeEventoExterno externalEventHandler = new GestorDeEventoExterno();
ExternalEvent externalEvent = ExternalEvent.Create(externalEventHandler);
// Populating the main window.
VentanaPrincipal mainWindow = new VentanaPrincipal(
externalEvent);
mainWindow.Show();
return Result.Succeeded;
}
}
Finally, the code behind of the progress bar window
public partial class VentanaDeProgreso : Window
{
private GestorDeEventoExterno externalEventHandler;
public void ActualizarProgreso(
string texto,
int valorActual,
int valortotal = 100)
{
this.Dispatcher.Invoke(
new Action<string, int, int>(
delegate (string txt, int vActual, int vTotal)
{
this.IndicadorDeProgreso.Value = valorActual;
this.IndicadorDeProgreso.Maximum = vTotal;
this.Texto.Text = txt;
}),
System.Windows.Threading.DispatcherPriority.Background,
texto,
valorActual,
valortotal);
}
private void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
// Asignación de valor verdadero a la propiedad de cancelación solicitada del evento externo.
this.externalEventHandler.CancellationRequested = true;
}
public VentanaDeProgreso(GestorDeEventoExterno externalEventHandler)
{
InitializeComponent();
this.externalEventHandler= externalEventHandler;
}
}
AS you can see, the progress window has the external event handler as a property and the cancel button click event sets the property 'CancellationRequested'.
My question is: How can I improve it?
You do not need an external event to cancel your command.
You only need an external event to cancel submit a request to execute Revit API functionality from some context in which it is not available.
Your cancellation requires no Revit API functionality, just your own stuff, hence no external event.
Therefore, you can restructure the whole solution much more simply. Kiss!
I want to show some pages in the first time app is installed, and the next time when I open the app show some other pages.
I tried this code
protected override void OnStart()
{
if (Application.Current.Properties.ContainsKey("id"))
{
MainPage = new NavigationPage(new Page2());
}
else
{
Application.Current.Properties["id"] = 2;
MainPage = new NavigationPage(new Page1());
}
}
The values in the Properties dictionary are only stored when the app goes to sleep
For a cross-platform approach, you can use the Settings Plugin
Then you can create a boolean property, for example, DidOpenOnce, and if it is false, show your initial welcome page or whatever. Then afterwards, set it to true.
protected void checkApplicationInstallState()
{
//retreive
var prefs = Application.Context.GetSharedPreferences("MyApp", FileCreationMode.Private);
var somePref = prefs.GetBool("IsApplicationOpenedForOnce", null);
if (!somePref) {
// Your Application is opened for the very first time. Now change the value to true as you have now opened the app so next time opening this application should get a true value.
var prefEditor = prefs.Edit();
prefEditor.PutBool(true, "IsApplicationOpenedForOnce");
prefEditor.Commit();
}
}
public MainPage()
{
InitializeComponent();
if (Application.Current.Properties.ContainsKey("FirstUse"))
{
//Do things when it's NOT the first use...
loadinit();
}
else
{
Application.Current.Properties["FirstUse"] = false;
//Do things when it IS the first use...
}
}
public async void loadinit()
{
await Navigation.PushAsync(new LoadPage());
}
I'm new in Xamarin and i'm trying to create a simple page with some components.
One of these component is a Switch it works fine by itself but i would like to change the basic text "inactive/active" by "male/female"
I've seen that in Xaml for windows phone there is a ToggleSwitch Component with a On/OffContent property but i can't seems to find an equivalent in XAML for Xamarin Forms
any idea ?
Thank you!
The lack of built in switch options, or at least the lack of being able to rename the switch options, has been asked a few times.
You could go with custom renders, modify the text at the OS level or do like I chose to do, just build your own switch.
This switch is two buttons laid out horizontally with the text Yes and No. The selected button gets a red border, and the unselected a transparent border.
class CustomSwitch : Grid
{
public event EventHandler<SelectedItemChangedEventArgs> ItemSelected;
private Button negative;
private Button positive;
public static readonly BindableProperty SelectedItemProperty = BindableProperty.Create<CustomSwitch, Object>(t => t.SelectedItem, null, BindingMode.TwoWay, propertyChanged: OnSelectedItemChanged);
public CustomSwitch()
{
try
{
this.HorizontalOptions = LayoutOptions.Center;
this.VerticalOptions = LayoutOptions.Center;
negative = new Button();
negative.Text = "No";
negative.Style = <YourNameSpace>.AppStyling.Style_Button_Switch;
negative.Clicked += (o,s) => OnSelectedItemChanged(this, ItemSelected, (int)Classes.Collections.Enums.SelectionStatus.False);
positive = new Button();
positive.Text = "Yes";
positive.Style = <YourNameSpace>.AppStyling.Style_Button_Switch;
positive.Clicked += (o, s) => OnSelectedItemChanged(this, ItemSelected, (int)Classes.Collections.Enums.SelectionStatus.True);
this.Children.Add(negative, 0,0);
this.Children.Add(positive, 1,0);
}
catch(System.Exception ex)
{
<YourNameSpace>.Classes.Helpers.Helper_ErrorHandling.SendErrorToServer(ex, this.GetType().Name, System.Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().Name);
}
}
public Object SelectedItem
{
get
{
return base.GetValue(SelectedItemProperty);
}
set
{
if (SelectedItem != value)
{
base.SetValue(SelectedItemProperty, value);
InternalUpdateSelected();
}
}
}
private void InternalUpdateSelected()
{
if((int)SelectedItem == (int)Classes.Collections.Enums.SelectionStatus.False)
{
negative.BorderColor = <YourNameSpace>.AppStyling.Color_Selected;
positive.BorderColor = <YourNameSpace>.AppStyling.Color_UnSelected;
positive.Opacity = <YourNameSpace>.AppStyling.Opaque_High;
}
else if ((int)SelectedItem == (int)Classes.Collections.Enums.SelectionStatus.True)
{
negative.BorderColor = <YourNameSpace>.AppStyling.Color_UnSelected;
negative.Opacity = <YourNameSpace>.AppStyling.Opaque_High;
positive.BorderColor = <YourNameSpace>.AppStyling.Color_Selected;
}
else
{
negative.BorderColor = <YourNameSpace>.AppStyling.Color_UnSelected;
negative.Opacity = <YourNameSpace>.AppStyling.Opaque_High;
positive.BorderColor = <YourNameSpace>.AppStyling.Color_UnSelected;
positive.Opacity = <YourNameSpace>.AppStyling.Opaque_High;
}
}
private static void OnSelectedItemChanged(BindableObject bindable, object oldValue, object newValue)
{
CustomSwitch boundSwitch = (CustomSwitch)bindable;
if((int)newValue != (int)Classes.Collections.Enums.SelectionStatus.Unselected)
{
boundSwitch.SelectedItem = (int)newValue == (int)Classes.Collections.Enums.SelectionStatus.False ? (int)Classes.Collections.Enums.SelectionStatus.False : (int)Classes.Collections.Enums.SelectionStatus.True;
}
if (boundSwitch.ItemSelected != null)
{
boundSwitch.ItemSelected(boundSwitch, new SelectedItemChangedEventArgs(newValue));
}
boundSwitch.InternalUpdateSelected();
}
}
In XAML I have the <Slider />. It has the ValueChanged event. This event fires with every change to Value. I need to detect when the value change is over. LostFocus, PointerReleased are not the correct event. How can I detect this?
XAML, WinRT, Windows8.1 and UWP:
PointerCaptureLost event should work for mouse / touch
KeyUp event for keyboard
You can create a new class and inherit from Slider. From there on, you can look for the Thumb control & listen for the events you want.
Something like this should work:
public class SliderValueChangeCompletedEventArgs : RoutedEventArgs
{
private readonly double _value;
public double Value { get { return _value; } }
public SliderValueChangeCompletedEventArgs(double value)
{
_value = value;
}
}
public delegate void SlideValueChangeCompletedEventHandler(object sender, SliderValueChangeCompletedEventArgs args);
public class ExtendedSlider : Slider
{
public event SlideValueChangeCompletedEventHandler ValueChangeCompleted;
private bool _dragging = false;
protected void OnValueChangeCompleted(double value)
{
if (ValueChangeCompleted != null)
{
ValueChangeCompleted(this, new SliderValueChangeCompletedEventArgs(value) );
}
}
protected override void OnApplyTemplate()
{
base.OnApplyTemplate();
var thumb = base.GetTemplateChild("HorizontalThumb") as Thumb;
if (thumb != null)
{
thumb.DragStarted += ThumbOnDragStarted;
thumb.DragCompleted += ThumbOnDragCompleted;
}
thumb = base.GetTemplateChild("VerticalThumb") as Thumb;
if (thumb != null)
{
thumb.DragStarted += ThumbOnDragStarted;
thumb.DragCompleted += ThumbOnDragCompleted;
}
}
private void ThumbOnDragCompleted(object sender, DragCompletedEventArgs e)
{
_dragging = false;
OnValueChangeCompleted(this.Value);
}
private void ThumbOnDragStarted(object sender, DragStartedEventArgs e)
{
_dragging = true;
}
protected override void OnValueChanged(double oldValue, double newValue)
{
base.OnValueChanged(oldValue, newValue);
if (!_dragging)
{
OnValueChangeCompleted(newValue);
}
}
}
You can use pair of bool values isValueChanged and (if possible change value without manipulation of pointer
) isPressed;
private void Slider_ValueChanged(object s, RangeBaseValueChangedEventArgs e) {
if (!isPressed) {
AcceptChanges();
} else {
isValueChanged = true;
}
}
Initialization code:
Window.Current.CoreWindow.PointerPressed += (e, a) => { isPressed = true; };
Window.Current.CoreWindow.PointerReleased += (e, a) => {
isPressed = false;
if (isValueChanged) AcceptChanges();
};
I had a similar issue using a Slider on Windows8/WinRT.
My problem was the following: I was reacting to the ValueChanged Event and performing a long lasting operation (writing asynchronously to a file) after each trigger. And thus running into a concurrent editing exception. In order to avoid this, I used a DispatcherTimer.
//Class member
private DispatcherTimer myDispatcherTimer = null;
private void OnSliderValueChanged(object sender, RangeBaseValueChangedEventArgs e)
{
//I update my UI right away
...
//If the dispatcher is already created, stop it
if (myDispatcherTimer!= null)
myDispatcherTimer.Stop();
//Overwrite the DispatcherTimer and thus reset the countdown
myDispatcherTimer= new DispatcherTimer();
myDispatcherTimer.Tick += (sender, o) => DoSomethingAsync();
myDispatcherTimer.Interval = new TimeSpan(0,0,2);
myDispatcherTimer.Start();
}
private async void DoSomethingAsync()
{
await DoThatLongSaveOperation();
}
You cannot directly detect what the final value is, but you can at least delay the operation until there is a long pause between two updates (e.g. in my case, if the user drags the slider and stops while maintaining the drag for 2 seconds, the save operation will be fired anyway).
Do anyone have good ideas of how to modify the toolbar for the WinForms version of the ReportViewer Toolbar?
That is, I want to remove some buttons and varius, but it looks like the solution is to create a brand new toolbar instead of modifying the one that is there.
Like, I had to remove export to excel, and did it this way:
// Disable excel export
foreach (RenderingExtension extension in lr.ListRenderingExtensions()) {
if (extension.Name == "Excel") {
//extension.Visible = false; // Property is readonly...
FieldInfo fi = extension.GetType().GetField("m_isVisible", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic);
fi.SetValue(extension, false);
}
}
A bit trickysh if you ask me..
For removing toolbarbuttons, an possible way was to iterate through the Control array inside the ReportViewer and change the Visible property for the buttons to hide, but it gets reset all the time, so it is not an good way..
WHEN do MS come with an new version btw?
Yeap. You can do that in a little tricky way.
I had a task to add more scale factors to zoom report. I did it this way:
private readonly string[] ZOOM_VALUES = { "25%", "50%", "75%", "100%", "110%", "120%", "125%", "130%", "140%", "150%", "175%", "200%", "300%", "400%", "500%" };
private readonly int DEFAULT_ZOOM = 3;
//--
public ucReportViewer()
{
InitializeComponent();
this.reportViewer1.ProcessingMode = ProcessingMode.Local;
setScaleFactor(ZOOM_VALUES[DEFAULT_ZOOM]);
Control[] tb = reportViewer1.Controls.Find("ReportToolBar", true);
ToolStrip ts;
if (tb != null && tb.Length > 0 && tb[0].Controls.Count > 0 && (ts = tb[0].Controls[0] as ToolStrip) != null)
{
//here we go if our trick works (tested at .NET Framework 2.0.50727 SP1)
ToolStripComboBox tscb = new ToolStripComboBox();
tscb.DropDownStyle = ComboBoxStyle.DropDownList;
tscb.Items.AddRange(ZOOM_VALUES);
tscb.SelectedIndex = 3; //100%
tscb.SelectedIndexChanged += new EventHandler(toolStripZoomPercent_Click);
ts.Items.Add(tscb);
}
else
{
//if there is some problems - just use context menu
ContextMenuStrip cmZoomMenu = new ContextMenuStrip();
for (int i = 0; i < ZOOM_VALUES.Length; i++)
{
ToolStripMenuItem tsmi = new ToolStripMenuItem(ZOOM_VALUES[i]);
tsmi.Checked = (i == DEFAULT_ZOOM);
//tsmi.Tag = (IntPtr)cmZoomMenu;
tsmi.Click += new EventHandler(toolStripZoomPercent_Click);
cmZoomMenu.Items.Add(tsmi);
}
reportViewer1.ContextMenuStrip = cmZoomMenu;
}
}
private bool setScaleFactor(string value)
{
try
{
int percent = Convert.ToInt32(value.TrimEnd('%'));
reportViewer1.ZoomMode = ZoomMode.Percent;
reportViewer1.ZoomPercent = percent;
return true;
}
catch
{
return false;
}
}
private void toolStripZoomPercent_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
ToolStripMenuItem tsmi = sender as ToolStripMenuItem;
ToolStripComboBox tscb = sender as ToolStripComboBox;
if (tscb != null && tscb.SelectedIndex > -1)
{
setScaleFactor(tscb.Items[tscb.SelectedIndex].ToString());
}
else if (tsmi != null)
{
if (setScaleFactor(tsmi.Text))
{
foreach (ToolStripItem tsi in tsmi.Owner.Items)
{
ToolStripMenuItem item = tsi as ToolStripMenuItem;
if (item != null && item.Checked)
{
item.Checked = false;
}
}
tsmi.Checked = true;
}
else
{
tsmi.Checked = false;
}
}
}
Get the toolbar from ReportViewer control:
ToolStrip toolStrip = (ToolStrip)reportViewer.Controls.Find("toolStrip1", true)[0]
Add new items:
toolStrip.Items.Add(...)
There are a lot of properties to set which buttons would you like to see.
For example ShowBackButton, ShowExportButton, ShowFindControls, and so on. Check them in the help, all starts with "Show".
But you are right, you cannot add new buttons. You have to create your own toolbar in order to do this.
What do you mean about new version? There is already a 2008 SP1 version of it.
Another way would be to manipulate the generated HTML at runtime via javascript. It's not very elegant, but it does give you full control over the generated HTML.
For VS2013 web ReportViewer V11 (indicated as rv), the code below adds a button.
private void AddPrintBtn()
{
foreach (Control c in rv.Controls)
{
foreach (Control c1 in c.Controls)
{
foreach (Control c2 in c1.Controls)
{
foreach (Control c3 in c2.Controls)
{
if (c3.ToString() == "Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.ToolbarControl")
{
foreach (Control c4 in c3.Controls)
{
if (c4.ToString() == "Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.PageNavigationGroup")
{
var btn = new Button();
btn.Text = "Criteria";
btn.ID = "btnFlip";
btn.OnClientClick = "$('#pnl').toggle();";
c4.Controls.Add(btn);
return;
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
I had this question for al ong time I I found the answer after a long tie and the main source of kowledge I used was this webpega: I'd like to thank you all guys adding the code that allowed me to do it and a picture with the result.
Instead of using the ReportViewer Class, you need to create a new classs, in my case, I named it ReportViewerPlus and it goes like this:
using Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace X
{
class ReportViewerPlus : ReportViewer
{
private Button boton { get; set; }
public ReportViewerPlus(Button but) {
this.boton = but;
testc(this.Controls[0]);
}
public ReportViewerPlus()
{
}
private void testc(Control item){
if(item is ToolStrip)
{
ToolStripItemCollection tsic = ((ToolStrip)item).Items;
tsic.Insert(0, new ToolStripControlHost(boton));
return;
}
for (int i = 0; i < item.Controls.Count; i++)
{
testc(item.Controls[i]);
}
}
}
}
You have to add the button directly in the constructor of the class and you can configure the button in your designer.
Here's a pic of the result, not perfect, but enough to go(safe link I swear, but I can't post my own pics, don't have enough reputation).
http://prntscr.com/5lfssj
If you look carefully in the code of the class, you'd see more or less how it works and you could make your changes and make it possible to establish it in other site of the toolbar.
Thank you so much for helping me in the past, I hope this helps lots of people!
Generally you are suppose to create your own toolbar if you want to modify it. Your solution for removing buttons will probably work if that is all you need to do, but if you want to add your own you should probably just bite the bullet and build a replacement.
You may modify reportviewer controls by CustomizeReportToolStrip method.
this example remove Page Setup Button, Page Layout Button in WinForm
public CustOrderReportForm() {
InitializeComponent();
CustomizeReport(this.reportViewer1);
}
private void CustomizeReport(Control reportControl, int recurCount = 0) {
Console.WriteLine("".PadLeft(recurCount + 1, '.') + reportControl.GetType() + ":" + reportControl.Name);
if (reportControl is Button) {
CustomizeReportButton((Button)reportControl, recurCount);
}
else if (reportControl is ToolStrip) {
CustomizeReportToolStrip((ToolStrip)reportControl, recurCount);
}
foreach (Control childControl in reportControl.Controls) {
CustomizeReport(childControl, recurCount + 1);
}
}
//-------------------------------------------------------------
void CustomizeReportToolStrip(ToolStrip c, int recurCount) {
List<ToolStripItem> customized = new List<ToolStripItem>();
foreach (ToolStripItem i in c.Items) {
if (CustomizeReportToolStripItem(i, recurCount + 1)) {
customized.Add(i);
}
}
foreach (var i in customized) c.Items.Remove(i);
}
//-------------------------------------------------------------
void CustomizeReportButton(Button button, int recurCount) {
}
//-------------------------------------------------------------
bool CustomizeReportToolStripItem(ToolStripItem i, int recurCount) {
Console.WriteLine("".PadLeft(recurCount + 1, '.') + i.GetType() + ":" + i.Name);
if (i.Name == "pageSetup") {
return true;
}
else if (i.Name == "printPreview") {
return true;
}
return false; ;
}
