UWP - Textbox Validation Sign - c#

I am trying to implement a Textbox which has a validation sign at the end next to the "X" which shows up, when the input is valid. The DataTemplate implementation is no problem but I am unsure on how to implement the logic.
One way would be a TextChanged event and then try to access the ValidSign element inside the DataTemplate. But I am not very fond of this method.
Is there a way to extend the TextBox logic since there must be some code-behind for the "X" button in the first place?

You can achieve that using VisualState. Here's an example: The idea is to create a custom textbox by subclassing the TextBox class, customize the default textbox style, add visual states and add a star beside the DeleteButton.
This class is a custom textbox that inherits from the TextBox class. In here, we set the visual state of the control depending on the value of the dependency property HasError. If HasError is true, we go to InvalidState, else we go to ValidState.
public class ValidatingTextBox : TextBox
{
public ValidatingTextBox()
{
// Tells this control to use the ValidatingTextBox style.
// This will be the customized textbox style below.
this.DefaultStyleKey = typeof(ValidatingTextBox);
}
public bool HasError
{
get { return (bool)GetValue(HasErrorProperty); }
set { SetValue(HasErrorProperty, value); }
}
/// <summary>
/// This is a dependency property that will indicate if there's an error.
/// This DP can be bound to a property of the VM.
/// </summary>
public static readonly DependencyProperty HasErrorProperty =
DependencyProperty.Register("HasError", typeof(bool), typeof(ValidatingTextBox), new PropertyMetadata(false, HasErrorUpdated));
// This method will update the Validation visual state which will be defined later in the Style
private static void HasErrorUpdated(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
{
ValidatingTextBox textBox = d as ValidatingTextBox;
if (textBox != null)
{
if (textBox.HasError)
VisualStateManager.GoToState(textBox, "InvalidState", false);
else
VisualStateManager.GoToState(textBox, "ValidState", false);
}
}
}
Next we need to copy the default TextBox style and customize it by adding the visual state and the start mark that will indicate that there's a validation error.

The code above is the whole style but here are the lines that you need to focus to.
This is the part where we added the visual states. We added a couple of visual states which is the ValidState and InvalidState. When on the ValidState, the visibility of the element named "ValidationMark" is set to Visible. When on InvalidState, it should be Collapsed.
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="ValidationState">
<VisualState x:Name="InvalidState">
<Storyboard>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetName="ValidationMark"
Storyboard.TargetProperty="Visibility">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame.Value>
<Visibility>Visible</Visibility>
</DiscreteObjectKeyFrame.Value>
</DiscreteObjectKeyFrame>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="ValidState">
<Storyboard>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetName="ValidationMark"
Storyboard.TargetProperty="Visibility">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame.Value>
<Visibility>Collapsed</Visibility>
</DiscreteObjectKeyFrame.Value>
</DiscreteObjectKeyFrame>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
</VisualStateGroup>
And this is the part where the star mark is added after the DeleteButton.
<Button x:Name="DeleteButton"
Grid.Row="1"
Style="{StaticResource DeleteButtonStyle}"
BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}"
Margin="{ThemeResource HelperButtonThemePadding}"
IsTabStop="False"
Grid.Column="1"
Visibility="Collapsed"
FontSize="{TemplateBinding FontSize}"
MinWidth="34"
VerticalAlignment="Stretch"/>
<TextBlock Text="*" FontSize="24" FontWeight="SemiBold" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="2"
Foreground="Red" Margin="5,2,5,0"
x:Name="ValidationMark"/>
Now in the xaml we just bind the HasError dependency property to a property in the viewmodel that will tell if it is valid or not.
<ctrl:ValidatingTextBox Text="{Binding TextValue, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged, Mode=TwoWay}" HasError="{Binding IsInvalid, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}"/>
For example in the view model we say it's valid when the text is "Valid" other than that it will show the star.
public class TestViewModel : ViewModelBase {
private bool _IsInvalid;
public bool IsInvalid
{
get { return _IsInvalid; }
set { SetProperty(ref _IsInvalid, value); }
}
private string _TextValue;
public string TextValue
{
get
{
return _TextValue;
}
set
{
if (SetProperty(ref _TextValue, value))
{
Validate(_TextValue);
}
}
}
private void Validate(string text)
{
if (text == "Valid")
{
IsInvalid = false;
}
else
{
IsInvalid = true;
}
}
}

UWP Binding the TextBox PlaceholderTextContentPresenter Foreground to a property in the UserControl's viewmdoel

In trying to bind the color of PlaceholderText in a TextBox, I have elected to try placing the Template into a style I can modify:
<Style x:Key="TextBoxStyle" TargetType="TextBox">
<Setter Property="Template">
...
<ContentPresenter x:Name="PlaceholderTextContentPresenter" Foreground="{Binding HintTextColor}" />
My UserControl:
<UserControl x:Name="This"
<TextBox
Style="{StaticResource TextBoxStyle}"
x:Name="_textBox"
/>
/>
I've tried variations on:
Foreground="{Binding DataContext.HintTextColor, RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type UserControl}}}}"
Also tried (no binding errors)
<ContentPresenter x:Name="PlaceholderTextContentPresenter" Foreground="{Binding ElementName=This.DataContext.HintTextColor}" />
Trying to connect the Foreground to the correct DataContext and color property, but either the syntax is supported only in WPF or I get a binding error in output. How do I bind the Foreground to the control view model HintTextColor?
Edit
The final solution looks like this for me:
<UserControl
<customControlsUwp:CustomTextBox
PlaceholderForeground="{Binding HintTextColor, Converter={StaticResource StringColorToBrushConverter}}"
/>
/>
public sealed class CustomTextBox : TextBox {
public CustomTextBox() {
DefaultStyleKey = typeof(CustomTextBox);
}
private ContentPresenter _placeholderTextContentPresenter;
public SolidColorBrush PlaceholderForeground {
get => (SolidColorBrush)GetValue(PlaceholderForegroundProperty);
set => SetValue(PlaceholderForegroundProperty, value);
}
//Add DP PlaceholderForeground for runtime bound changes to HintTextColor
public static readonly DependencyProperty PlaceholderForegroundProperty =
DependencyProperty.Register("PlaceholderForeground", typeof(SolidColorBrush), typeof(CustomTextBox), new PropertyMetadata(null, PropertyChangedCallback));
public static void PropertyChangedCallback(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e) {
if (!(d is CustomTextBox customTextBox) || !(e.NewValue is SolidColorBrush solidColorBrush))
return;
if (customTextBox._placeholderTextContentPresenter == null)
customTextBox._placeholderTextContentPresenter.Foreground = solidColorBrush;
}
protected override void OnApplyTemplate() {
base.OnApplyTemplate();
_placeholderTextContentPresenter = GetTemplateChild("PlaceholderTextContentPresenter") as ContentPresenter;
}
}
And added a template binding in the control style to capture the first value set:
<ContentPresenter x:Name="PlaceholderTextContentPresenter" Foreground="{TemplateBinding PlaceholderForeground}" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" Content="{TemplateBinding PlaceholderText}" IsHitTestVisible="False" Margin="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}" Padding="{TemplateBinding Padding}" Grid.Row="1" TextWrapping="{TemplateBinding TextWrapping}"/>
UWP doesn't support Binding in style. You could see the Migration notes section in MSDN document.
You could make a custom TextBox and define a dependency property named as PlaceholderForeground. In its override OnApplyTemplate method, you could get the "PlaceholderTextContentPresenter" ContentPresenter control from its default style's template. Then, when your dependency property is changed, you could set the new value to the "PlaceholderTextContentPresenter".Foreground.
public class CustomTextBox : TextBox
{
private ContentPresenter _PlaceholderTextContentPresenter;
public SolidColorBrush PlaceholderForeground
{
get { return (SolidColorBrush)GetValue(PlaceholderForegroundProperty); }
set { SetValue(PlaceholderForegroundProperty, value); }
}
// Using a DependencyProperty as the backing store for MyProperty. This enables animation, styling, binding, etc...
public static readonly DependencyProperty PlaceholderForegroundProperty =
DependencyProperty.Register("PlaceholderForeground", typeof(SolidColorBrush), typeof(CustomTextBox), new PropertyMetadata(null, PropertyChangedCallback));
public static void PropertyChangedCallback(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
{
if ((d as CustomTextBox)._PlaceholderTextContentPresenter !=null)
{
(d as CustomTextBox)._PlaceholderTextContentPresenter.Foreground = e.NewValue as SolidColorBrush;
}
}
protected override void OnApplyTemplate()
{
_PlaceholderTextContentPresenter = GetTemplateChild("PlaceholderTextContentPresenter") as ContentPresenter;
}
public CustomTextBox()
{
DefaultStyleKey = typeof(CustomTextBox);
}
}

<AppBarButton Icon="Account" Label="Test 1"></AppBarButton>
</CommandBar.Content>
<AppBarButton Icon="Accept" Label="Test 2"/>
</CommandBar>
and this is the result what I got:
So now how I trigger that the label are on the right? DefaultLabelPosition doesn't effect the content values.
I want to create a toolbar like in WPF or WinForms.

There are few things to note here.
1) DefaultLabelPosition can be used in apps targeting Anniversary Update. So if you want to use this for apps targeting previous versions, it would not work.
2) Irrespective of point above, CommandBar.Content is by itself a separate presenter with AppBarButton.
How can i get this working?
You can create a style template from default AppBarButton Template and design your ContentRoot as required.
Below is the Grid that I changed while playing around sometime before.
<Grid x:Name="ContentRoot" MinHeight="{ThemeResource AppBarThemeMinHeight}">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ContentPresenter x:Name="Content" AutomationProperties.AccessibilityView="Raw" Content="{TemplateBinding Icon}" Foreground="{TemplateBinding Foreground}" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Height="20" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
<TextBlock x:Name="TextLabel" Foreground="{TemplateBinding Foreground}" FontSize="12" FontFamily="{TemplateBinding FontFamily}" Margin="5,0" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="1" TextAlignment="Center" TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="{TemplateBinding Label}" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
</Grid>
Also Style has VisualState Compact which hides the label text on AppBar Close so comment this out
and then assign this style to your buttons.
<Page.BottomAppBar>
<CommandBar IsOpen="True">
<CommandBar.Content>
<AppBarButton Icon="Account" Label="Test 1" Style="{StaticResource RightAlignAppBarButton}"/>
</CommandBar.Content>
<AppBarButton Icon="Accept" Label="Accept" Style="{StaticResource RightAlignAppBarButton}" />
</CommandBar>
</Page.BottomAppBar>
This is the output
Here is the full style for your reference.

You can play around with few other properties and get the output as desired.
I had the same issue, so I put together two CommandBars side by side:
<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
<ColumnDefinition />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<CommandBar DefaultLabelPosition="Right">
... Left aligned AppBarButtons ...
</CommandBar>
<CommandBar Grid.Column="1" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" DefaultLabelPosition="Right">
... Right aligned AppBarButtons ...
</CommandBar>
</Grid>
While not perfect, it worked decently for me before and after collapsing:

Combobox Foreground when expanded in UWP

I have the following code in which I am setting foreground for combobox item in template.
<ComboBox Height="100" ItemsSource="{Binding Data}" BorderBrush="Black" BorderThickness="0.5" >
<ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate >
<TextBlock Text="{Binding}" Foreground="Black" />
</DataTemplate>
</ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
</ComboBox>
I just need to change the foreground color when the combobox is expanded (i.e when it has more items). Please refer the screenshot.
At this time I need the foreground to be white color. Please suggest!
Try setting the foreground of ComboBox to white.And the item template foreground also. Should work!
To change background of open combobox you need to edit it's template. Bellow I've changed it to red for example. (Check last "Popup" section of the template)

Center placeholder text in TextBox

I have multiple TextBoxes in my XAML-Page.
<TextBox Name="TxtCompanyId" PlaceholderText="FirmaId" Height="40" Margin="5" TextAlignment="Center" />
The TextAlignment="Center" property only centers the text of the TextBox and not the placeholdertext/hint text. Is there a way to center both?
You can surely modify the defalut style and set PlaceholderTextContentPresenter's horizontal alignment to Center:
<ContentControl x:Name="PlaceholderTextContentPresenter" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" Content="{TemplateBinding PlaceholderText}" Foreground="{ThemeResource SystemControlPageTextBaseMediumBrush}" IsHitTestVisible="False" IsTabStop="False" Margin="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}" Padding="{TemplateBinding Padding}" Grid.Row="1" HorizontalAlignment="Center"/>

VerticalContentAlignement into TextBox

I have a problem with a style I have created, I'm trying to center the text vertically but it doesn't works. Indeed, if I set the VerticalAlignment property of the ScollViewer to Center the Text of the TextBox, the text is not visible anymore from my TextBox.
My style is define as following :
<Style TargetType="TextBox">
<Setter Property="MinWidth" Value="{ThemeResource TextControlThemeMinWidth}"/>
<Setter Property="MinHeight" Value="{ThemeResource TextControlThemeMinHeight}"/>
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{ThemeResource TextBoxForegroundThemeBrush}"/>
<Setter Property="Background" Value="{ThemeResource TextBoxBackgroundThemeBrush}"/>
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="Black"/>
<Setter Property="SelectionHighlightColor" Value="{ThemeResource TextSelectionHighlightColorThemeBrush}"/>
<Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="2"/>
<Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Center" />
<Setter Property="FontFamily" Value="{ThemeResource ContentControlThemeFontFamily}"/>
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="20"/>
<Setter Property="ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility" Value="Hidden"/>
<Setter Property="ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility" Value="Hidden"/>
<Setter Property="ScrollViewer.IsDeferredScrollingEnabled" Value="False"/>
