I have created my own cutom control in combination of two :
button and a autocompletebox in silverlight.
On a click event of a button i bind the itemsource of a autocompletebox and do this :
acb.ItemsSource = p.ToArray();//list of an object of a class(person)
acb.MinimumPrefixLength = 0;
acb.IsDropDownOpen = true;
And on a textchanged event of a autocompletebox i call a service method to fetch persons based on the search text and do this :
ReferringProvider.ItemsSource = searchproviders;
this.ReferringProvider.tbComboValue.MinimumPrefixLength = 0;
this.ReferringProvider.tbComboValue.IsDropDownOpen = true;
But i lose TextCompletion, the text is not completed with the first item of drop downlist?
Any idea why so? or any suggestions
Please Thanks in advance.
I wrote a blog sometime back on autocomplete text box, but I did not use button. I am not sure you need button to initiate autocomplete. Corrent me I am wrong.

I have a v-combobox component in my app. I have it to where I can type something in the input then #blur a check happens to see if the typed Item exists in the list or not. If it does not exist a modal opens up asking the user if they want to add it to the list.
I have it if the user clicks yes it is added to the list the problem I am having is if they click cancel and the dialog is closed focus should go back to the combobx input
When I try and set the focus I get the blue animation bar but no input cursor in the input of the combo box
I have set up a codesandbox example of my issue
CodeSandbox Example of Issue
I was wondering If i could get some help or pointers on why Im not getting the full focus to be able to type after clicking cancel on the dialog .
You can try to use $nextTick like this:
closeConfirmationDialog() {
// const comboBox = this.$refs[this.forInput];
// comboBox.$el.querySelector("input").focus();
this.showDialog = false;
this.cancelDialog = true;
this.$nextTick(() => {
this.$refs.categories.focus();
});
}
I have a grid with databound method which shows the message 'No Data Found for the search' in case no data gets retrieved after performing search. Now i have added a radio buttons which when clicked needs to clear the old data from the grid. The issue is i am using the code $(grid).data("kendoGrid").dataSource.data([]); which does clear the grid but it also shows 'No Data Found for the search' message. Since user didn't perform any search but only changed the radio button it doesn't seem right to display that message in the grid. So, i was wondering if there was a way to clear the grid without invoking the databound method.
Grid code that calls databound function:
#(Html.Kendo().Grid<SearchModel>()
.Events(events => events.DataBound("gridDataBound"))
Databound code:
function gridDataBound(e) {
var grid = e.sender;
var gridName = "#" + grid.table.context.id;
if (grid.dataSource.total() == 0) {
var colCount = grid.columns.length;
$(e.sender.wrapper)
.find('tbody')
.append('<tr class="kendo-data-row"><td colspan="' + colCount + '" class="no-data">No Records Meet Your Search Criteria.</td></tr>');
}
$(gridName).find(".k-pager-wrap").hide();
};
Thanks.
As far as i know there is no way of doing this without putting an e.preventDefault() in the dataBound function. What you can do is maybe make a boolean that your dataBound function uses to check whether it should display the message or not?
What I want to achieve in my application is the same as what windows did on their start up screen. When you select an item, open the appbar and show more items. When you just open te appbar when not selecting anything, don't show those items.
So far so good and it works like I want it to be. But there is some issue I can't solve. When you select an item on the start up screen, you can't close te appbar when right clicking anywhere on the screen. You have to deselect the item.
I just can't figure out how to disable that right click to close the appbar. Because then I am in a state where I have a selected item, but no appbar. I don't want that...
Thanks in advance!
There is a property called IsSticky
this can be used to stop you appbar from collapsing.
the other option you have is to hooking into Closed event and force it to re-open.
Based on the screen you provided aka the Metro UI :) i'd say that create a page that just hosts other tiles.
I have done a similar thing in one of my apps, have a look at
http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/en-gb/app/cineworld/7adfde16-33c3-4b51-b758-00366325288d
Have a look at Coding4Fun or Callisto
Set the AppBar property IsSticky="true" and handle the event RightTapped on your GridView/ListView, and in the event handler set e.Handled = true;
This will stop the rightclick/swipe routed event from reaching Page and it won't close the AppBar.
You could override the hide() function of the appbar and replace it with something like this:
appBar.hide = function () {
/// <signature helpKeyword="WinJS.UI.AppBar.hide">
/// <summary locid="WinJS.UI.AppBar.hide">
/// Hides the AppBar, if visible, regardless of other state
/// </summary>
/// </signature>
// Just wrap the private one
var listView = document.getElementById("yourListView").winControl;
var count = listView.selection.count();
if(count <1)
this._hide();
}
It's not a great workaround, but it works like a charm :)
Hi In CRM2011 I created custom button in form. On click of that button it opens javascript modal dialog. This modal dialog calls html where silverlight app is embedded. So my question i s how can I get following information. If silverlight app is in form we may easily get following values but my silver light app opens in modal dialog.
var xrmProperty = (ScriptObject)HtmlPage.Window.GetProperty("Xrm");
You want to talk to the opener. For example, in JavaScript you'd call:
window.opener.Xrm.Page.getAttribute('cei_name').getValue()
to get the value of the "cei_name" attribute on the form.
Try Following code
dynamic xrmnew = (ScriptObject)HtmlPage.Window.GetProperty("Xrm");
if (xrmnew == null)
{
HtmlWindow parentWindow = HtmlPage.Window.GetProperty("parent") as HtmlWindow;
xrmnew = (ScriptObject)parentWindow.GetProperty("Xrm");
}
Guid Id = new Guid(xrmnew.Page.data.entity.getId());
I'm developing a WP7 app and the application needs to change the icon of a button on the application bar given the state of a request.
I have tried:
if (App.Servers[index].ServerState == "Enabled")
{
DetailsAppBar.btnStart.IconUri = new Uri("/AppBar/appbar.stop.rest.png");
}
else
{
DetailsAppBar.btnStart.IconUri = new Uri("/AppBar/appbar.transport.play.rest.png");
}
This doesn't give me an error in the code, but it can't compile....
any hints to do this is appreciated :)
thanks
ApplicationBar is a special control that does not behave as other Silverlight controls (see Peter Torr's post on the subject). One of the consequences is that names given in XAML to app bar buttons generate fields in code-behind that are always null.
I'm guessing that in your case the btnStart field in DetailsAppBar is set to null, and thus trying to set its IconUri property results in a NullReferenceException being thrown.
To access a button in an application bar, you must instead reference it by its zero-based index in the buttons list. For instance, the code below returns a reference to the third button in the app bar:
button = (IApplicationBarIconButton)ApplicationBar.Buttons[2];
figured it out...
((ApplicationBarIconButton)ApplicationBar.Buttons[2]).IconUri = new Uri("/AppBar/appbar.stop.rest.png",UriKind.Relative);
did the trick :)
