I am trying to get a listview to display a list of items made up of textblocks... when the listview item is clicked i would like to show instead a list made up of textboxes... Below is what i have come up with, it does not work. I have two grids within the templates and was hoping to simply show and hide the grids depending on if the listview item is selected. Where have i gone wrong? I ripped these visual states from the listview's template itself but i must admit im not sure how they work, or how they are meant to be triggered. Should there be some code behind to do this? <ListView Grid.Row=

I am currently writing my first UWP app just to learn the ropes. I am building a small application that pulls data from downloaded facebook-archive. But when I try to open the file (even though everybody has full access) I get an UnauthorizedException. I don't understand this and I haven't found anybody having this problem with just any old file (there are many people having problems with more specific scenarios but not just a simple file on their hard drive) System.UnauthorizedAccessException was unhandled by user code HResult=-2147024891 Message=Access to the path 'C:\Users\patri\Downloads

I am having troubles setting up the style of selected item in metro app list box. I have created the DataTemplate for the item in which there is a TextBlock which colour I would like to change. I tried many things from WPF but they are not available for metro like DataTemplate.Triggers, Style.Triggers and so on.

The same was with value converter as I didn't know how to use RelativeSource to supply the converter with

There are a lot of samples for C#, but only some code snippets for C++ on MSDN. I have put it together and I think it will work, but I am not sure if I am releasing all the COM references I have to. Your code is correct--the reference count on the IBufferByteAccess interface of *buffer is incremented by the call to QueryInterface , and you must call Release once to release that reference. However, if you use ComPtr<T> , this becomes much simpler--with ComPtr<T> , you cannot call any of the three members of IUnknown ( AddRef , Release , and QueryInterface ); it prevents you from calling them.

I'm trying to debug my Windows Store App when it gets suspended (trying to prevent my server app from kicking my WSA client when it gets suspended and stops responding to keep-alive messages). But Windows keeps terminating my app almost immediately after it suspends it. Is there a way to prevent Windows from terminating suspended apps? I've searched the interwebs and the group policy editor for such a setting, but the best I can find is a setting to prevent it from auto-terminating apps on shutdown, which doesn't help me. And of course running in the debugger and pressing the Suspend button
