• Winnie.Wang Custom "Property" in WPF

  Hi all, Is there any way to define a "property" that can be accessed in design time like in windows form controls. The Property Keyword doesn't seem to exist anymore or I'm missing something. Probably the later. I just want to allow an image to be set at design time pretty much. Any help would be good. Regards Shane Hi Again, Okay I think I see how this works. I don't see how to get the good old forms method working though. I would expect the code below to work but it doesn't seem to. Does it have to be a usercontrol In this case I'm overloading a Wrap Panel and adding my own properties to it. [Description( "Left Side Image" )] [Category( "Images&qu ...Show All

• Steven Berger How to convert an Icon object to ImageSource?

  How can I convert an Icon object to an ImageSource object. I want to set the Icon of a window, but the Window's Icon property needs an ImageSource object. Thanks! If you're saying you have your icon embedded as a resource, then you should just be able to set the StreamSource property of a BitmapImage to the Stream instance returned from Assembly::GetManifestResourceStream . HTH, Drew Your reply seams a little bit complicated. You are telling me that there is no easy way to set an icon to the Icon property of a Window In .NET 2.0, I had an icon in the resources of the application (from the Resources.resx file) and I could easily set the icon of a window with ...Show All

• Karin P How to avoid failures in "failures.log"?

  Hi! When starting VSS-Administrator (2005), there is permanently a list of users which had produced inconsistencies in the database. Even after running analyze.exe, the same errors occur. What is the cause Thx. We run Analyze weekly and consistently get "Analyze completed (Analyze corrected all inconsistencies in the database.)" written to the analyzecompletion.log file. All seems well but nothing ever rids of the failures.log file. Should we just delete the log file after Analyze runs successfully Correct. The failures.log file comes from clients getting disconnected, not from Analyze. If Analyze determines that the disconnections didn't cause any corruption ...Show All

• ELIJAH E. Fuzzy text in a label control

  Hi, I've added some controls to the top of a sheet in an Excel file. The problem I'm having is that the text on, say a label, is blurry or fuzzy. It almost looks like when smoothing is being applied but actually makes it worse. I've tried various fonts and sizes and that doesn't matter. The rest of the text on the sheet looks fine. Has anyone seen this before, and hopefully knows what's happening I'd appreciate any help. Thanks. Cindy, Thanks for clearing that up for me. I think I spent way too much time trying various alternatives! Hi Art, Does it refer to design time or during runtime If it the first case then I would guess it's per default. I got the same scenario during design time. Hi Art th ...Show All

• alext_2002 databinding issue, june ctp
