.net - WPF Binding Individual Text Boxes To An Element In A Collection Object Or Array?
Oct 27, 2010
I need to bind a textblock.text property to a single element in an observable collection, or array element, and have the text update using the INotifyPropertyChanged or INotifyCollectionChanged, whichever is best.
Most examples describe ways to bind listboxes or other list views to entire collections, but my application needs to update several textblocks on a screen depending on notification of a change in one or more elements of an array.
Is it possible to bind a single textblock to a single array element? Is it possible to get notification of the proper type that will update one or more of the textblocks if any assigned element changes?
I've been writing a weight program for flooded pressure vessels and I'm having trouble retrieving the data from the text files I've been saving. I know how to write the data to the text file, but retrieving it with OpenFileDialog is not so easy for me.The user has individual text boxes that they input strings or numbers into and when they save the file, each text box input is written to one line in the text file. For example, the first text box is for the username, therefore the first line of text that is saved is the person's name, the second text box is the customer, thus the second line in the text file is the customer name, and so on.
(Actually, the first line of text in the saved file designates whether English units were used or Metric units because when the user retrieves the saved file, English units will open one form and Metric units will open a separate form, so some If...Then statement will need to occur).I need to be able to read the first line, have either my "EnglishForm"form open or my "MetricForm" form open, and then have each subsequent line of text be displayed in their corresponding text boxes. I know I need to use ReadLine or LineInput, but I don't have a clue what to do.Assuming the syntax I've displayed below would just magically work (if only life were that easy), it would look something like this
If FirstLineOfTextInFile = "English" Then EnglishForm.Show() ElseIf FirstLineOfTextInFile = "Metric" Then[code]....
And so on...I read a lot of articles from the MSDN library and exhausted each link that I've looked through from Google and Bing, but most only retrieve data from the file to a single text box through some loop or streamreader and don't take into account multiple forms.
how to move info from text boxes on one form to binding source text boxes on another form. I am displaying array info in text boxes on one form and i need to add them to the database on another form. How do I do that?
I would like to bind textboxes to certain columns from records generated from a stored procedure. The error I receive is "DataMember property 'spCustomerHeader cannot be found on the DataSource". I have no problem returning the data to a datagridview but I need this show this data in textboxes.
there is a tab control system. It relies on only five text boxes, and their bindings change when the tab is changed The relevant information is displayed. However, if I navigate to a different record...You can see that the same information is displayed in the tab control text boxes, and not the employee's details I just selected in the data grid or the navigation. How can I fix this? I'm not sure what's gone wrong here. Here's the code that changes the text boxes upon changing tab...
Private Sub TabCheck() If TabState = 1 Then pnlTabs.BackgroundImage = My.Resources.tabs1
I have a TreeView with dynamically added nodes which I am using to actually contain textual data. I am using the tag field to contain special info for acting upon, based upon the node's tag. I have tried using treeview.SelectedNode.Tag. However, the selected node is the one most recently selected (like with a left mouse click), not the node I right-clicked. I have also tried using the contextmenustrip.SourceControl, but the source name for the control is always the container, the treeview control rather than the individual nodes. I have even tried associating my ContextMenuStrip dynamically to each individual node as it is added. The behavior is the same.A workable solution might be to cause a left-click when I do the right-click to bring up the context menu strip. I haven't been able to figure that one out yet either.
I'm converting a library from C# to VB.net which so far hasn't been too difficult. One class though implements IEnumerable and IEnumerator and contains a block of code like this:
public class MyClassCollection { // Assume all other necessary code is in place
I'm trying to make a crossword puzzle. I wanna use textboxes as the cells in the puzzle. I'm also using MySQL as the source for the puzzle data. I need a quick way to easily check and edit the content and properties of the textboxes I'm going to use.I thought I could have an array of textboxes and then access each textbox like this..[code]I declared cell() as a global variable under the "module variables" . The code shows no errors but the textbox doesn't show.
How can you put the out put in an array that has no text boxes? [code]Say this is the code, but what you need is for it to show even more of a break down something like this with the select case.[code]and yet the text file that it needs to read from is delimited by a comna and the amount of the vehicles that are there for the out put changes.I was wanting to use an "If/Then" or an "If/ElseIf/Then" statement nestle into the case statements for the output. What I really need is a place to read some good articles on arrays as I am still fairly new and do not understand fully how they work(which I think is causing my problem.)
I can't seem to find any answers that work. Here's the setup:
Info class: Public Class ProductStageInfo
[Code]...
maybe I just don't understand the whole collection/index/thing. All the examples I've found are regarding single dimension collections - 'how to find name within this collection', and the responses use strings to search through them, but somehow the Info class is being treated differently, and I'm not sure how to translate this..
I need to randomly pick an element from an array and I can only use that element three times,I can randomly pick the element but how do I go about only using it three times.
I would like the following function to return Nothing if the element with the specified key is not in the collection. Instead, it returns an error - something to the effect of "no element found"
Public Class MyCollection Inherits System.Collections.ObjectModel.Collection(Of MyType) Public Function FindByActivityKey(ByVal searchValue As Integer) As MyType
I'm fiddling around with trying to make a sort of map/world. I'm using 16 x 16 pictureboxes named PictureBox1, PictureBox2, etcThe issue is that when I put the images into all the pictureboxes, I have to have a line for each picturebox (so say I have 100 boxes, I have 100 lines).The only difference in each line is the picturebox number, the rest is identical. I'm basically telling it to set that picturebox's image based on the number that a variable I've created has stored.I've got a game idea, and I'm just trying to figure out how to do the map. I want it to work like the old school RPG games like Dragon Warrior, or the more recent Dwarf Fortress. I'm still not sure if I want to use graphics or letters. At this point, I'm just trying to figure out how I can create the main screen where the user moves around. This is what I've come up with, as it works with what I know. I'm pretty new to this, although I've messed around with VB6 a lot.
Dim tile(30) As Integer Dim tilelocation(3) As String Dim x As Integer
I have a parameterized query that displays the info (name, phone number, email addy) in detailed text boxes vice a normal DGV. I have coded a button to open outlook and populate the email address, but what I would like to do is have the user click another button that would add each email address into an array or collection from the desired records. Then, when they added all desired recipients to this "collection" they would hit the email button, which would open up outlook with the To: box already populated.*
I have looked into dynamic arrays , generic and special collections but am not sure what the best way forward is. When using the dynamic arrays I didn't really get anywhere, I couldn't seem to figure out how to redim with each addition of an email address.
Dim emaillist() As String Dim listings As Double Dim addy As String
Im extremely new to programming. Im trying to determine how to get values from 6 different text boxes put them into an Array. They are in a function not on the form. Three of those values need to be used for calculation.
[Code] this code iterates through 5 text boxes to check that the value entered is numeric and also that there are no blank spaces. How would i put this into .net as it doesn't seem possible to hold the text boxes in array.
I have an array of 50 text strings, is there any way that i can easily link each item in the array to a different text box on the screen? and then to have the text boxes auto update if the array changes?
I have a 2d array of data that I have performed the sum of the individual column of the 2d array. I want to send the results to a datagridview and also will like to have the result as a 1d or 2d array.
Below is sample of my code
Dim Array1(,) as double Array1(0, 0) = 5 Array1(0, 1) = 7
I made a form with text boxes in a 6x6 square pattern. It will do a streamreader from a text file a number that indicates the size of the array. Then fill in the boxes with the numbers of the array. Then it will calculate the rows and columns to see if they add up to a single answer. Then it will display to an output window if it is a magic square or not. Meaning if all rows and columns add up to a single number its magic. If they dont add up to the same number then its not magic. Then it will repeat this check and output from the information of the other arrays from the text file.
I know how to code for the streamreader and get it to add the rows and columns. Im not sure about what code I need so it can check the answer if its magic or not and repeat it till the end.
Here are the contents of my text file which it will read from.
I have 81 text boxes on a form and would like to create a text array in code that will equate to these boxes on the form. Once I've assigned each text box from the form to the array entry, I'd just like to work with the array - then have the actual text boxes on the form reflect the changes made to the array.
I want to pull information from an array and place it into a chart of text boxes on the form. I have used a control array before but this time I want to create a dwo dimension control array. My guessing is not working... The display will be 10 x 10?
First, I am making the assumption that anything you can do in "Attribute Syntax" (AS), you can do in "Property Element Syntax" (PES), but not vice-versa. That is the reason I intend on coding completely in PES if possible. I have encountered quirks though.The first issue is regarding AS "x:Name" or PES "<FrameworkElement.Name>": If I use PES, I must make sure it is the last element, otherwise any PES below it will error on build; eg "Value of type 'System.Windows.ResourceDictionary' cannot be converted to 'Namespace.ClassName'."
A problem encountered intermixing AS and PES: Set "x:Name" and "MinWidth" as AS. Set "Title" as PES.
I want to take a field from a table and place the content into a collection. The collection is not supposed to have any duplicates. This is my code sofar... It does not work. The NOT statement is supposed to only enter values into the collection, when the collection does not allready contain the matching string.
I'm trying to lern VS 2010 from VB 6 and one of the things i'm hawing a problem whid is control array.In vb 6 if you create a text box it's named "Text1" and if you yust copy it and paste it it renames to "Text1(0)" and the new one's name is "Text1(0)" and the code would lock like this
[code]...
then it would print for each loop the random result in one of the text boxes corresponding to i.
I am trying to follow the book 'Sams teach yourself VB 2008'. It was going well until the end of hour 4. For exercise 1 I have created the form with a button and two text boxes, but cannot work out the code I need to move text between the two boxes. The Object Browser does not seem to help - am I reading it wrong?
I would like to set up a custom app configuration element collection section like this
<logSectionGroup> <logSection name="Testttt"> <properties name ="Pride">[code]....
Properties would be the configuration element, and log section would be the configuration element collection.The problem is, I've only seen where you can have multiple instances of a single element instead of multiple elements.
I have an DatagridTemplate Column containing an Checkbox which through an converter gets checked when a property on my ItemSource is "J" and unchecked when the property is "N".This works, but now I want the property to be set to "J" if I select the checkbox or "N" when I deselect it.
My Column: <local:JNConverter x:Key="JNConverter" /> <DataGridTemplateColumn Header="">
I've bound a collection with public properties that are of type double to a datagridview control. If, in the datagrid, the user enters a value that is a string I get an error thrown, and I can't seem to find the method to handle it.
The only way I've been able to fix this is to make all public items in my bound collection of type string, and in the get/set make the private variables double.
This is a huge pain; is there any way to do this in a more elegant fashion?
2nd question is there a way to make the default header text something other than the public property name? (I know I can manually change this in the code later, I was wondering if there was a way to automatically have it something else)
(below is example code; I've changed the P property to reflect that change I had to make)
Public Class clsPIDElement Private _P As Double Private _I As Double
I was wondering if its possible to bind a datagrid column to a list (Of T) thats stored within an observable collection!
Here's my current code:
Dim _BindWithThis As New List(Of BindWithThis) Me.DataContext = _BindWithThis For i = 0 To 3
[Code]....
This currently displays four rows of "(Collection)". Is it possible to step into one of these "Collection" rows and display the data? I know that this is possible to do with a list box by binding with a specific element in the collection:
