Are there any flags i need to provide to CefSharp to work with document elements?

I converted a window of mine to use CefSharp in order to render some PDF file. One of the features the old component supported (WebBrowser of WPF, which unfortunately depends on IE, which does not work in this case) is accessing javascript elements through code in order to be aware of when the PDF has been scrolled to the bottom. Unfortunately this does not appear to work with CefSharp with the following code. Perhaps i am missing some initializer flag for this to work?
Currently in my Logs All i get is ScrollProgress|0|0|734

invalidoperationexception In the Begin method of Save The Humans Game

I started learning C# using the book Head First C# and i'm doing the game in chapter 1 using WPF project , the thing is i think i followed everything according to the book but i get a invalidoperationexception in the begin method
here is the code i wrote :

Play_Area.Children.Add(enemy);
}
private void AnimateEnemy(ContentControl enemy, double from, double to, string propertyToAnimate)
{
Storyboard storyboard = new Storyboard () { AutoReverse = true, RepeatBehavior = RepeatBehavior.Forever };
DoubleAnimation animation = new DoubleAnimation()
{
From = from,
To = to,
Duration = new Duration(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(random.Next(4, 6))),
};
Storyboard.SetTarget(animation, enemy);
Storyboard.SetTargetProperty(animation, new PropertyPath(propertyToAnimate));
storyboard.Children.Add(animation);
storyboard.Begin();
}
}
}
Here is a picture of my document Outline : Document Outline
why do i get the exception ? can anyone help me ?

Property names are case-sensitive. Try to change Canvas.left to Canvas.Left with an upper-case L:
AnimateEnemy(enemy,0,Play_Area.ActualWidth-100,"(Canvas.Left)");

I'm using WPF, coming from WinForms. Any advice is appreciated, thanks.

You need to do something along the lines of:
var window = new Window1();
var stackPanel = new StackPanel { Orientation = Orientation.Vertical };
Button button = new Button();
button.Content = "New Button";
button.Visibility = Visibility.Visible;
button.Height = 50;
button.Width = 200;
stackPanel.Children.Add(button);
window.Content = stackPanel;
window.Show();
Although, I'd recommend defining all UI components in the XAML and reading up on the MVVM pattern.

<StackPanel Name=“splMain“>
<Button Name=“btnAddMore“ Click=“btnAddMore_Click“>Add Another</Button>
Also on button click :
System.Windows.Controls.Button newBtn = new Button();
newBtn.Content = “A New Button”;
splMain.Children.Add(newBtn);

Button SaveButton = new Button();
SaveButton.Name = "Save";
SaveButton.Content = "Save";
Grid1.Children.Add(SaveButton);

Hi this WPF alarm app wont trigger the label to be fed in via animation. Initially it was made in a Form then I brought into WPF. When in C# Form this was all fine, everything triggered, but as soon as I brought it into WPF it wouldn't trigger.

Obviously the coding itself is pretty bad, but the reason im here is to find out why the the 2 labels "CountTime and TriggerTime" wont trigger, if I set them != they trigger automatically. But when set == they dont.

To sum up comments. Because Content is an Object you compare it by reference. Use Equals method, which is overridden by String, to compare values:
CountTime.Content.Equals(TriggerTime.Content)
or cast both values to String and then compare them:
(string)CountTime.Content == (string)TriggerTime.Content

Grid Lines wont show

Grid lines wont show on runt-time I can seem to see where I am going wrong. This is a WPF window application. I just want to generate columns and rows using C# code. Any ideas why this is not working?

The question may as well read "Grid won't show".
You are creating a new Grid instance, but you never add it to the visual tree. You may assign it to the Window's Content property:
private void CreateGrid()
{
...
Content = myGrid;
}
