I've got the following piece of XAML code:
<Grid Grid.Row="1" x:Name="ContentRoot" Margin="19,9.5,19,0">
<ScrollViewer>
<ItemsControl ItemsSource="{Binding History}">
<ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" Tapped="HistoryItemTapped">
<FlyoutBase.AttachedFlyout>
<Flyout>
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch">
<ScrollViewer>
<TextBlock Foreground="{ThemeResource PhoneMidBrush}" FontSize="{ThemeResource TextStyleExtraLargeFontSize}" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Text="{Binding Expression}" />
</ScrollViewer>
<ScrollViewer>
<TextBlock FontSize="{ThemeResource TextStyleExtraLargePlusFontSize}" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Text="{Binding Result}" />
</ScrollViewer>
</StackPanel>
</Flyout>
</FlyoutBase.AttachedFlyout>
<TextBlock Foreground="{ThemeResource PhoneMidBrush}" FontSize="{ThemeResource TextStyleExtraLargeFontSize}" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Text="{Binding Expression}"
TextTrimming="CharacterEllipsis"/>
<TextBlock FontSize="{ThemeResource TextStyleExtraLargePlusFontSize}" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Text="{Binding Result}"
TextTrimming="CharacterEllipsis"/>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
</ItemsControl>
</ScrollViewer>
</Grid>
There are two problems I can't solve:
The flyout is shown upon tapping on one of items:
private void HistoryItemTapped(object sender, TappedRoutedEventArgs e)
{
FlyoutBase.GetAttachedFlyout((FrameworkElement)sender).ShowAt((FrameworkElement)sender);
}
However, no matter how I set up the flyout it always shows on the top of the screen, not over the tapped item. Why?
The flyout contains two TextBlocks on separate ScrollViewers. The text on one of them exceeds width of the flyout, bt the scrollviewer does not appear to be working (I cannot scroll horizontally the textblock). Why is that?
So let's knock these out real quick. Your #1 would be expected result, it's just going off the default FlyoutPlacementMode enumeration wherein generally your flyout is just meant to appear over the top in one of 5 spots, Top, Bottom, Left, Right, or Full(Center)
How to fix it, ditch the flyout control and just animate your own panel to do the same thing on a tap event or whatever, not hard at all.
Your #2, if I remember right the default on ScrollViewerfor something like the HorizontalScrollBarVisibility is False by default. So just add HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Auto" to it.
Hope this helps, cheers

I'm trying to add vertical scrolling to my GridView / AdaptiveGridView, but no success so far(Horizontal scrolling works).
I have already attempted with internal scrollviewer with the "ScrollViewer.---" in the GridView without luck.
I have also tried to place a ScrollViewer outside of the GridView without luck.
XAML
<ScrollViewer
HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled"
HorizontalScrollMode="Disabled"
VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto"
VerticalScrollMode="Auto">
<Grid Name="ChangeMe">
<controls:AdaptiveGridView
Name="MyPolls"
Margin="0,10,0,0"
DesiredWidth="320"
IsItemClickEnabled="True"
ItemClick="MyPolls_ItemClick"
ItemHeight="180"
ItemsSource="{x:Bind oc}"
SizeChanged="MyPolls_SizeChanged">
<controls:AdaptiveGridView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate x:DataType="local:Poll">
<Grid ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto" ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollMode="Auto">
<Image Source="../Assets/Square44x44Logo.png" Stretch="UniformToFill" />
<StackPanel
Height="60"
Padding="12"
VerticalAlignment="Bottom"
Background="{ThemeResource SystemBaseLowColor}"
Orientation="Horizontal">
<StackPanel>
<TextBlock Text="{x:Bind poll_title}" />
<TextBlock
Foreground="{ThemeResource SystemControlPageTextBaseMediumBrush}"
Style="{ThemeResource CaptionTextBlockStyle}"
Text="{Binding poll_description}" />
</StackPanel>
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</controls:AdaptiveGridView.ItemTemplate>
</controls:AdaptiveGridView>
</Grid>
</ScrollViewer>
Code Behind
private void MyPolls_SizeChanged(object sender, Windows.UI.Xaml.SizeChangedEventArgs e)
{
ChangeMe.Height = MyPolls.Height;
ChangeMe.Width = MyPolls.Width;
}
Does anyone know a way to enable vertical scrolling for a GridView / AdaptiveGridView for when the gridview items go out of frame so you can scroll down and see them? (AdaptiveGridView inherits from GridView)
I have a listbox with objects but I cannot scroll to the bottom of the page. What is the problem? This is the code that I'm using.
<Grid>
<Image Name="Nietcomment" Source="write.png" Width="70" Margin="350,-850,0,0" Tap="Login_popup" Visibility="Visible"/>
<Image Name="welcomment" Source="write2.png" Width="70" Margin="350,-850,0,0" Tap="Login_popup_remove" Visibility="Collapsed"/>
<ScrollViewer Name="scrollview" VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Visible" Margin="0,0,0,0" Foreground="Black">
<StackPanel>
<TextBlock x:Name="NTitelComment" Text="{Binding}" TextWrapping="Wrap" FontSize="25" Margin="10,0,10,0" Foreground="#FFE5001b"/>
<Line Stretch="Fill" Stroke="Black" X1="0" X2="1" Y1="0" Y2="0" Margin="10,0,10,0"/>
<TextBlock x:Name="tijdComment" Text="{Binding}" Margin="50,0,10,0" Foreground="Black"/>
<Image Height="20" Width="20" Margin="-380,-20,0,0" Source="/PostDateIcon.png"/>
<ListBox Margin="0,0,0,20" Name="lbComments" VerticalAlignment="Top" />
</StackPanel>
</ScrollViewer>
</Grid>
If you put a border around your ScrollViewer, can you see if it goes outside of the screen maybe? Will it help to set a fixed height of the Grid or ScrollViewer?
Keep in mind the phone has built in scroll, so your ScrollViewer maybe doesn't play well with it.
With so much fixed margins, your layout will be impossible to manage, especially when dealing with differents screen resolutions and especially with negative margins.
Anyway, right now, you have two scrollviewers, as your listbox contains one as well.
You should disable the listbox scrollviewer or it will prevent your page to scroll.
Just change your listbox:
<ListBox
Margin="0,0,0,20"
ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled"
Name="lbComments"
VerticalAlignment="Top" />
It will disable it's scrollviewer and allow it to scroll with the rest of the page.
I have a little problem using the longlistselector (well more specifically the multilonglistselector) in windows phone 8.
I use binding to bind the name of an object to the items, the XAML code is as follow:
<Grid>
<TextBox x:Name="searchBox"
IsEnabled="{Binding IsConnected}"
HorizontalAlignment="Left" KeyUp="CheckKey"
Height="72" Margin="10,10,0,0" TextWrapping="Wrap" InputScope="Search" GotFocus="Select"/>
<toolkit:LongListMultiSelector EnforceIsSelectionEnabled="True" SelectionChanged="AdjustAddSelectionButton" x:Name="resultList" ItemsSource="{Binding Results}" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Height="434" Margin="10,87,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" >
<toolkit:LongListMultiSelector.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Grid>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Title}" TextWrapping="Wrap">
<toolkit:GestureService.GestureListener>
<toolkit:GestureListener DoubleTap="OpenArticleDetail" />
</toolkit:GestureService.GestureListener>
</TextBlock>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</toolkit:LongListMultiSelector.ItemTemplate>
</toolkit:LongListMultiSelector>
</Grid>
The Binding takes place perfectly, but the text is sometimes too long and doesn't fit the screen. How would I go about wrapping this text to another line?, I 'll give a screenshot here
You didn't really state any specific problem or question you want answered. Please try to be a bit more clear in the future.
If you don't like that the TextBlock cuts off words that it can't fit, then you have several solutions.
TextBlocks have a TextWrapping property, so doing TextWrapping="Wrap" will enable the TextBlock to resize itself to display all the content.
TextBlocks have the TextTrimming property, so writing TextTrimming="WordEllipsis" will replace any cut off words with an ellipsis.
If you want to keep the one line but also show all the content, you can put the TextBlock inside a Horizontal ScrollViewer, which will let the user scroll the text left and right. Not great, but a decent solution
Code for 3.
<ScrollViewer ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Auto" ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Visible">
<TextBlock Text="Text"/>
</ScrollViewer>
I added a huge right padding to my main TextBlock to work around this issue.
<phone:PhoneApplicationPage.Resources>
<DataTemplate x:Key="MyTemplate">
<StackPanel VerticalAlignment="Top" Margin="0,-4,-50,0">
<TextBlock FontWeight="Bold" FontSize="18" Text="{Binding title}" TextWrapping="Wrap" Margin="0,0,0,6"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding text}" TextWrapping="Wrap" FontSize="30" Padding="0,0,125,0"/>
<Rectangle HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Height="1" Fill="#78c5a6" Margin="0,18,0,18"/>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</phone:PhoneApplicationPage.Resources>
I have some Canvases in a ListBox. Inside these Canvases I have some TextBlocks which have their text bound to them. However when I try to use a MaxWidth/Height property on the text block (or the standard Height/Width), the properties are ignored! So I end up with the text overspilling the Canvas in cases.
I would much appreciate any help on the matter, and I hope I'm not just being a blind idiot!
Oh, and here's the code (the TextBlock I'm talking about is the first one):
<ListBox Margin="0,-9,-12,0" ItemsSource="{Binding}" Name="listBoxNotes" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="400" Height="548">
<ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel>
<Canvas Height="175" Width="360" Background="{StaticResource PhoneAccentBrush}" toolkit:TiltEffect.IsTiltEnabled="True" Name="canvasNote" Tap="canvasNote_Tap">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Title}" FontWeight="Bold" FontSize="26" Foreground="White" Canvas.Left="10" Canvas.Top="5" x:Name="Title" Width="100" MaxWidth="100"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Details}" TextWrapping="Wrap" Width="352" FontSize="24" Foreground="White" Canvas.Left="10" Canvas.Top="35" />
</Canvas>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>
The problem with this is Canvas does not limit the size of their children, and especially theTextBlock control will grow as much as it needs.
Many ways to solve your problem :
Do not use TextBlock but a TextBox
Do not use Canvas but another container such as Border, Grid, StackPanel...
Try to clip the TextBlock content
<TextBlock.Clip>
<RectangleGeometry Rect="0, 0, 50, 30"/>
</TextBlock.Clip>
I'm a newbie to c#. I have designed a windows program with button and listbox. The listbox populates the log as the script runs the application. However, as the listbox gets populated with log, the button and label increases which makes the stack panel very ugly?
Any help/advice would be appreciated. Below is my xaml code.
<Grid>
<Border BorderBrush="Black" BorderThickness="2" Margin="0,11,0,5" CornerRadius="5" Background="White">
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Margin="7,10,7,2">
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical">
<TextBlock Text="City" Margin="5" HorizontalAlignment="Center"></TextBlock>
<ComboBox Name="City" SelectedValue="Chicago" SelectedValuePath="Name">
<ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Name,Mode=OneWay}"></TextBlock>
</DataTemplate>
</ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
</ComboBox>
</StackPanel>
<Button Name="btnEnter" Content="Enter" Width="200" Margin="4" Padding="6" Click="btnEnter_Click"></Button>
<Button Name="btnViewLog" Content="View Log" Width="100" Margin="4" Padding="6" Click="btnLog_Click"></Button>
<ListBox Name="lbLog" Visibility="Collapsed">
<ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBox Text="{Binding Description}" IsReadOnly="True" BorderThickness="0" Background="Transparent"></TextBox>
</DataTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>
</StackPanel>
Thanks.

Without your Xaml, it is hard to diagnose the problem, so please try to post it with any further questions. It SOUNDS like it is a horizontal StackPanel, and the elements are all next to each other.
If the orientation of your StackPanel is Vertical, set the HorizontalAlignment on the button to Left, Right, or Center. If the StackPanel orientation is Horizontal, set the VerticalAlignment on the button to Top, Bottom, or Center.
I'm pretty certain both settings are "Stretch" by default, which means they will try to fill all the space that is available, rather than sizing to their content.
