code-behind

I want to produce in code the equivalent of this in XAML: <TextBlock Text="Title:" Width="{Binding FormLabelColumnWidth}" Style="{DynamicResource FormLabelStyle}"/> I can do the text and the width, but how do I assign the dynamic resource to the style: TextBlock tb = new TextBlock(); tb.Text = "Title:"; tb.Width = FormLabelColumnWidth; tb.Style = ??? You can try: tb.Style = (Style)FindResource("FormLabelStyle"); Enjoy! Samuel Jack You should use FrameworkElement.SetResourceReference if you want true DynamicResource behaviour - ie updating of the target element when the resource changes. tb

How can I add the GestureService and a handler for the Flick event in code-behind (i.e. not in XAML)? Firstly, make sure you've added a reference to the Silverlight Toolkit for Windows Phone 7 , specifically the Microsoft.Phone.Controls.Toolkit.dll assembly. Then make sure you have an XML namespace reference for the Microsoft.Phone.Controls namespace: xmlns:toolkit="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Phone.Controls;assembly=Microsoft.Phone.Controls.Toolkit" Then, add the GestureService.GestureListener to the control you want to handle gestures on: <TextBlock x:Name="test" Text="Test"> <toolkit

I'm working with HTML provided by coworker in .aspx and I need to program in .aspx.cs(C#) the functionality of the button he created using HTML. The code I'm dealing with is as follows: </div> <button style="padding: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;" class="w3-round w3-blue">Ship</button> <button style="padding: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;" class="w3-round w3-blue">Rate</button> </div> I'm new to HTML but in looking at solutions to similar questions I often see the HTML code for a functional button looking more like <button type="submit" runat="server" id="btnLogin" class="button" onclick="btnLogin

I have a situation where I need to create View box with one button. The xaml for this is as below: Please observe Width property of viewbox. The Width should be increased/decreased according to a slider bar(moving to right increases it, to left decreases it). As listed below I know how to do it in xaml and it works fine. But my requirement is to be able to create viewbox in code behind and assign it the properties. <WrapPanel x:Name="_wrpImageButtons" Grid.IsSharedSizeScope="True" ScrollViewer.CanContentScroll="True" d:LayoutOverrides="Height" Margin="5"> <Viewbox x:Name="_ScaleButton" Width="

How do you get the size of a string? In Windows Forms it's easy, I just use graphics object and then MeasureString function. In ASP.NET I'm not sure how to do this. Eystein Bye Like Tom Gullen is saying. You can just create a bitmap and messure the string. I have this code I use to find the width/length in pixel. Just change the font and size. // Bitmap class namespace: using System.Drawing; ... private float GetWidthOfString(string str) { Bitmap objBitmap = default(Bitmap); Graphics objGraphics = default(Graphics); objBitmap = new Bitmap(500, 200); objGraphics = Graphics.FromImage(objBitmap);
