styling

We have been tasked with designing an enterprise application in WPF that will replace a battleship grey Winforms application with a modern look and feel. We like the look and feel that Microsoft web applications currently possess: We could create these menus in WPF in the usual way: <DockPanel> <Menu DockPanel.Dock="Top"> <MenuItem Header="_File"> <MenuItem Header="_New" /> <MenuItem Header="_Open" /> <MenuItem Header="_Save" /> <Separator /> <MenuItem Header="_Exit" /> </MenuItem> </Menu> <TextBox AcceptsReturn="True" /> </DockPanel> But we'd get something that looks like a Winforms menu. I

Here is the picture that shows the problem. Take a look at the bottom right corner. Anyone knows how to get rid of it? Setting LayoutStyle to VerticalStackWithOverflow fixes it but also centers the items horizontally which I don't want. I just want a vertical stack like in the pic, but without that black line in the bottom right corner. In the properties bar, set "RenderMode" to "System" or use .RenderMode = System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripRenderMode.System; Doing this will change the .BackColor to "Control" but you can change that after if you want. Sorry for being late to the party, but the

In Angular 2 I am binding a dollar value like this inside a TABLE TD. <td> {{eachOutlet.dollarValue}} </td> This dollarValue will be less than 0 or equal to 0 or greater than 0. When it is less than zero it should show up in "Red" color. When it is zero, nothing should show up. Just blank text. When it is greater than zero, it should use thousands separator and show the number. How can I apply such conditional styling using Angular 2 binding? Is it even possible to do it ? <td> <span *ngIf="eachOutlet.dollarValue != 0" [style.color]="eachOutlet.dollarValue < 0 ? 'red' : null"> {{eachOutlet

I'm trying to style all my dialog fragments to look the same in my app. The dialogs coming from my settings fragment are styled exactly the way I want it. For my custom dialog fragments, the style is similar but not exactly the same. For some reason the spinner, timepicker, datepicker, radiobuttons, and edittext widgets inside my custom dialog fragments don't pick up the same style. In fact, the widgets blend in with the white background and you can't see that they are there. What am I doing wrong? <style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar"/> <style name="Theme.Base"

I want to make a WPF TextBox have a DarkBlue border and thickness equal to 1. I want to make the WPF have this border ( DarkBlue, thickness set to 1 ) even when the TextBox is selected. I tried doing this task by the following code. However, it doesn't work at all. Any ideas or hints ? Any help would be greatly appreciated. <Style x:Key="ReadOnlyLargeTextBox" TargetType="{x:Type TextBox}" > <Setter Property="Height" Value="80"/> <Setter Property="MaxHeight" Value="80"/> <Setter Property="VerticalScrollBarVisibility" Value="Visible"/> <Style.Triggers> <Trigger Property="TextBox.IsMouseOver"

I have added a default menu control to my user control. I need to style the menu to remove the left margin containing the space for the icon or checkbox. How can I do this? XAML: <Menu> <MenuItem Header="MyMenu" FontSize="10"> <MenuItem Header="Options..." /> <MenuItem Header="About" /> </MenuItem> </Menu> It currently renders like any other Menu control out of the box: I don't want the margin or column to the left of the menu items. This is typically used for icons etc. It's not very straight forward, but you need to create a MenuItemStyle, easiest through Expression Blend: <Menu> <MenuItem
