I have a ToolStripCombBox that loads a font selection. For whatever reason I can't get it to load the SelectedItem (even though I know it's there).It's probably something very simple, but I have been over this for days now. Other Comboxes work without any issue whatsoever, so I'm guessing it relates to fonts!Here is the ComboBox

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to design a windows form application. By default, .NET had put Tahome 8,25 on toolbar and Microsoft SansSerif 8,25 on everything else. To improve general look and feel of the forms I'd like to change them.
Which font family should I use as a default? And what size should they be?
For:
Classic data input form (label + textbox, label + combobox...)
Data grid
Is there any recommended way?

I need to bind the value of the SelectedItem from the datagrid to: SelectedItem of a combo box on the same page Property in the viewmodel In other words: when I select a row in the datagrid the value in the combobox should change and value of the meant above property should be also set to the value of the selected item of the datagrid.

I'untangle a particularly malodorous collection of spaghetti code. Anyway, I have the following XAML code:
<UserControl.Resources>
<CollectionViewSource x:Key="XMLObjectGroups" Source="{Binding Path=XMLObjectList}">
<CollectionViewSource.GroupDescriptions>
<PropertyGroupDescription PropertyName="IsDateType"/>
[code].....
On the second line XMLObjectList is a readonly property of a ViewModel class, returning a Collections.ObjectModel.ReadOnlyObservableCollection(Of MyOrder).On the final line SelectedOrder is a property of the same ViewModel class, which allows setting and getting of a MyOrder object.
I have confirmed that XMLObjectList is being correctly referenced by renaming the property, mistyping the string, breakpoints, etc. XMLObjectList definitely references the XMLObjectList property of this particular ViewModel class.The SelectedOrder property, however, is never accessed at runtime, meaning that it isn't properly hooked up to the SelectedItem of this ListView.

I am building a WinForms application. On one user control I have a CheckedListBox on the left and a ListBox on the right. Within both controls, the selected item(s) become completely transparent. Not only transparent, but if I was to click within the transparent area(s), I would actually be clicking whatever is underneath the application. So, if the WinForms app is loaded up and sitting on top of a browser, when I click one of the items within either list control, I could actually click a link within the browser underneath. At first I thought that I had changed a setting of each control. I thought there might be something like SelectedItemTransparent = True/False, but upon further looking, I think it might be an application-wide setting. I have confirmed that it isn't just this one machine. I have loaded the project into VS 2008 on both my laptop and desktop with the exact same results.

View 2 RepliesI'm attempting to bind a combo to a collection of objects:
Dim t As New TradeOrderStatus()
Dim ts As List(Of TradeOrderStatus) = t.GetStatuses
With Me.cboTradeStatus
[code]...
This works fine and I see the list of items in the combo. However when I try to set the SelectedItem of the combo to one of the items:
Me.cboTradeStatus.SelectedItem = Trade.TradeStatus
nothing happens. Trade.TradeStatus is an instance of the class TradeOrderStatus and all the necessart statuses are visible in the drop-down list. The SelectedItem remains as Nothing (or as the first item in the list if I omit the .SelectedItem = Nothing line from the binding code).
Debug.Print(CStr(Me.cboTradeStatus.Items.Contains(.TradeStatus)))
also returns false.
A ListView (or ListBox) with following properties:
<ListView SelectionMode="Single">
<sys:String>James</sys:String>
<sys:String>Claude</sys:String>
[Code]....
will result in selecting two items simultaneously if I click on "James", even though I chose SelectionMode="Single". It's even the same behaviour when I use a helper class with a string-property to display in the ListView. It seems like the ListView is evaluating the Items and selecting those which are Equal() rather than ReferenceEqual(). Is there a way to change this behaviour so that the ListView treats every item individually?
I have a combox box on my login form which contains 1 and 2, I use it as so called accesslevel. Now, my problem is that only the selected item will get read. If I type 1 or 2, it won't get read. How do I make it possible for both selected and written ones to be read?
