WPF/E Qickstarts
Hey all,
I've been taking some time to go through the quick starts for the WPF/E.
It came to my attention that I could not get the background = "LimeGreen"
to work in myxaml.xaml so I just changed the script for the examples source of
canvas-HeightWidth.xaml and it worked ok. The thing is myxaml.xaml is exactly
the same now as I just copied in from the canvas-HeightWidth.xaml. Then I
changed the script in the sample html file back to myxaml.xaml as source. It still
did not work. So I tried saving it in different formats like Unicode and UTF-8.
Still nothing. Then I did a stupid thing and copied the contents of myxaml.xaml
into the canvas-HiegthWidth.xaml. It didn't render using it now. So I distroyed
the original and rebuilt it using intellisence from VWD. It ended up looking like
this: <!--emphasize Width="200" Height="200"-->
<Canvas
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/client/2007"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml">
<Rectangle
Canvas.Left="0" Canvas.Top="0"
Height="200" Width="200"
Fill="LimeGreen" />
<Ellipse
Canvas.Left="30" Canvas.Top="30"
Height="200" Width="200"
Stroke="Black" StrokeThickness="10" Fill="SlateBlue" />
</Canvas>
I would think that it would be the proper way to do this anyway but then I am
new to this. I do have WPF/E templates in my C# IDE and would like to get
documentation for using it for Windows forms. I know it makes web pages
look cool but there are other ways to use it as I am learning. Any good ideas
for resources. I only found one post on PlanetSourceCode so far.
