Does anyone know how to use the ViewModelLocator in App.xaml, and also have MergedDictionary entries when using the MVVM Light Toolkit? I used the MVVM Light app template, and simply added a reference in App.xaml to my Styles.xaml, and am now getting the error below, but only when I include the entry for the view model locator. Here is what is in App.xaml:
The blue squiggly lines are all under each entry in ResourceDictionary, and hovering over displays the message:
"The designer does not support loading dictionaries that mix 'ResourceDictionary' items without a key and other items in the same collection. Please ensure that the 'Resources' property does not contain 'ResourcesDictionary' items without a key, or that the 'ResourceDictionary' item is the only element in the collection."
Thanks for any assistance anyone can provide.
I realise this is an old post, but I linked to here first when trying to find an answer. So for anyone looking for an answer I managed to get an answer here:

Hope this helps.

I'm developing a Vue app using UI Kit which implies using various custom attributes like uk-grid, uk-icon, uk-navbar etc (in Vue single file components' templates). For each one, IntelliJ gives me a warning like
Warning:(7, 52) Attribute uk-icon is not allowed here
How can I tell IntelliJ not to do this? Googling the warning haven't brought any sane results which makes me think there's no ready-to-use package for this (for this particular UI Kit), so the question is: how to make Idea not to warn about a custom list of attributes? But I'll be glad to be wrong and if there is a better solution, please let me know.
Update: like lena has suggested, pressing alt+enter suggests helpful options, including adding attribute to the list of custom attributes. However, wildcard suggestion didn't work for me: the below screenshot illustrates settings that make v-localize attrbute be recognized, but uk--prefixed attribute are still highlighted with warning:
You can add uk-* attributes to Custom HTML tag attributes list in HTML | Unknown HTML tag attribute inspection; the easiest way to do this is using Add to custom HTML attributes quickfix available on Alt+Enter:
Note that IDEA recognizes Vuikit components and directives out of the box - did you consider using it instead of pure UIKit?
I'm trying to run the line of code below in my script, but I get an error saying that more than one object with these properties was found on the page.
Browser("browser").Page("page").WebElement("css:=.normalDayOfMonth").Click
So, I tried adding an index, as shown below:
Browser("browser").Page("page").WebElement("css:=.normalDayOfMonth", "index:=0").Click
But now it's not detecting any object at all. Could anyone help me out with this? Thanks!
Edit: For anyone else who comes across this, it turned out I was using QTP10 and as Motti pointed out below, CSS and Xpath support was only added in QTP11.
The support for using CSS and XPath to identify test objects was added in QTP11, in your comments you say that you're using QTP10 which would explain why you're facing problems...
What's probably happening is that QTP is ignoring css as an unrecognizd property so your description matches all elements and then when you add index:=0 it brings one of the invisible elements (e.g HEAD or HTML) which can't be clicked.
If all you're trying to do is match the className you can use QTP's class identification property ("class:=normalDayOfMonth").
BTW the Highlight function is an undocumented function similar to the object repository's highlight functionality and can be very useful in troubleshooting tests.
I was experimenting with Dojo and Dijit in the past days and I find it quite interesting. I was however trying to find a reference or an API doc that helps me understand all the properties I can assign to widgets and containers.
For example a Tab with a Save Icon will be like this:
<div data-dojo-type="dijit.layout.ContentPane" title="Group Two" data-dojo-props="iconClass: 'dijitEditorIcon dijitEditorIconSave'">
Now, where can I find what to put in the "data-dojo-props" property? Where can I find for example all the list of icons?
My main question would be for example on how to create a vertical menubar, but beyond odd examples scattered here and there, the api reference is not much helpful...
Any help? Am I missing something here?
For this kind of situation, the trick is learning how to convert between the programmatic Javascript style and the declarative HTML style (and sometimes also between the old declarative style, without data).
For the new declarative style, basically the only "real" argument now is data-dojo-props and it consists of an object that will be passed to the widget constructor.
//programatic style
new dijit.myWidget({foo:'a', bar:'b'});
//declarative style
<div data-dojo-type="dijit.myWidget" data-dojo-props="foo:'a', bar:'b'"></div>
You can find what properties an widget accepts by checking the corresponding widget documentation and looking for either declarative or programmatic examples (now that we know how to convert between them). If that is not enough, you can also check the source code - it is usually very well commented and is where api.dojotoolkit.org gets its data from anyway.
Can I apply "StaticResource" to element in run-time?
I know I can use "StaticResource" to element in xaml files. But, I want to know how to use it from C# (code-behind).
A StaticResource is a static defined resource, usually defined in the <X.Resources> element, for any element or page.
In C# you simply access it with X.Resources["MyResource"] like you should do {StaticResource MyResource}.
Not really with the same meaning. StaticResources are "static" in the sense that their value is resolved during Xaml parsing. The XamlParser will resolve the resource by examining the resource dictionary the ancestor FrameworkElement Resource properties that are also in the same xaml and then the Application.Resources if necessary.
If you happen to know where to find the resource you want to assign using C# code then it is as simple as in Claus' answer. However if you only know the name of the resource but not which dictionary its found in then its much tricker.
It is possible to write a routine (you can probably find one in SO or elsewhere on the web) that you can use to hunt up the Visual tree using the VisualTreeHelper looking at all the Resource properties along way. You could probably get away with this but be aware that this may search more dictionaries than the original Xaml version would and its possible for you to get some unexpected value.
As the question suggests I'm simply looking for a XAML tag list reference. I've banged the obvious queries in Google/SO but not found what I am looking for yet. Any useful links welcome.
There's a WPF Binding Cheatsheet and another XAML for WPF Cheatsheet which might help, but really the "tags" in XAML are just the properties of the classes.
There isn't such a thing as a xaml tag list.
XAML is just a declarative way to instantiate .Net classes. Class names are elements in XAML and properties on the class are attributes or attribute elements using dot notation.
Tags in XAML only mirror the types in one or more assemblies that are bound to a particular XAML namespace.
There are however a specific set of elements that are specific to XAML in itself and are not related to any particular .Net assembly, those are usually in the x: namespace, more info here: XAML Namespace (x:).
There is no such thing as the XAML tag list since XAML is an open system.
There are, however, standard vocabularies. Rob Relyea's Blog is a good place to keep track of the standardization around these vocabluaries. For example, this is an entry for the Silverlight XAML vocabulary.
With WPF the XAML elements map to the classes like StackPanel. MSDN seems to give XAML examples for many of the controls.
There are XAML-specific conventions about representing things like complex properties and bindings. However, there is no definitive list of XAML tags. XAML tags are actually mapped to WPF objects. For example, <Button> is just a XAML representation of the System.Windows.Controls.Button class and the attributes allowed on the <Button> tag are the public properties of the Button class.
There should be several WPF cheatsheets available soon on http://www.devsheets.com (since around September 2011) ... You can download it there, and also buy printed versions with more detailed information on them (not all content fits in publicly available pdf, because pdf would not be readable if printed on paper without high quality print ... that is why we also decided to sell high quality laminated cheatsheet prints in addition to their free versions)
