• just david AssemblyInfoTask crash

  AssemblyInfoTask is crashing if an input file doesn't have an AssemblyVersion or AssemblyFileVersion property set. Is this by design It'd be nice if it could automatically add a default version, or a version based on the information given to the task, to the input file. Brad, Is it really "crashing" in the missing case, or giving an error It should be giving an error saying the stubbed out entry needs to be in the file. I agree that it would be nice to have it automatically insert it if it's missing, but I didn't have the time to get that implemented. Same goes for the asterisk case. Thankfully you only have to make that change once, and then the task will work going forward. If it really ...Show All

  We are producing an application which in the fullness of time will be producing and outputting large numbers of Word documents.

• den2005 Moving images but no redraw

  I have 5 images (image controls) on a canvas and I want to move them from one side of the screen to the other. As if they were sliding in. This is done by changing the Margin in a For..Next loop x times. The problem I have is that they are not drawn as they move across the screen. In old VB a Doevents would solve this problem but I can see from other posts that that is no longer an option. Some have suggested using the Dispatcher but I can’t quite figure out if Microsoft thinks this is a good idea or not. What else is there. Maybe moving the For...Next loop into a new Thread. Surely not... Any ideas All code bits in VB please. rune Hmm, This is a bit different in VB. Here I ...Show All

• Lotek Deviant How do I restart an animation?

  I have a ListBox which i'm scrolling horizontally to the left by a fixed amount, when the animation state changes, I adjust the contents of the listbox, and want to start up the storyboard again which should translate it back to zero immediately, then begin scrolling left again... The callback works, i manipulate the datasource for the listbox, but can't seem to find the handle on where i should be "restarting" the animation. I got it to "start" again using BeginAnimation on the ListBox, but that didn't reset the current value of the clock... e.g. it stays as the "To" value the whole time. Here's a xaml fragment showing how I have the animation coded, as a templated item on the itemsPanel. < L ...Show All

• jens_essen Visual Studio 2005 Freezes

  okay, the reason why i posed it here instead of a "Visual Studio" forum is because it only seems to freeze when i am working in the WPF environment.  When i load a project and switch to design view it takes at least 20 - 30 seconed until the design is loads and it hogs up cpu usage.  I don't think it would be an issue with my pc because i can work in a Windows Forms environment fine but just in case:  I have 512 mb ram Pentium(R) 4 cpu 3.33ghz.  Below is the installed products that i have for VS.  Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Version 8.0.50727.363  (SP.050727-3600) Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0.50727 Installed Edition: Professional Microsoft Visual Basic 2005   77626-009-0000007-41495 ...Show All

• Clinton Chau BitmapDecoder Metadata via HTTP URI

  I am trying to read MetaData (i.e. Camera used in a photo) from an image sitting on my website. I know the metadata is in the photo, and I know the web server is transferring it by watching a HexDump of the data after a direct request to the server. Also, when I transfer the photo to my local harddrive, I can read the MetaData with the following code: Uri uri = new Uri (" file://c:\\temp\\testimage.jpg " ); BitmapDecoder decoder = BitmapDecoder .Create(uri, BitmapCreateOptions .None, BitmapCacheOption .None); BitmapFrame frame = decoder.Frames[0]; BitmapMetadata m = frame.Metadata as BitmapMetadata ; However, whenever I change the uri to use an HTTP style and pull the image directly from my website without ...Show All

• Mehmet Metin Altuntas Save instance of model in menu command

  Hi, If you hit the 'transform all templates' button in the instance of your DSL then your model is saved first before it's going to generate code for that model. Which makes sense, because otherwise code will be generated for the last saved model but normaly you want the code for the current model. But I'm doing my own code generation on a Custom Menu Command (because of the 1 file per template limitation). Of course I also want the model to be saved before I'm going the generate code. I found the following solution which works, but I don't know what it's exactly doing: " this .CurrentData.Save( this .CurrentData.FileName, 1, 0); " The function header is: int DocData.Save(string fileName, int remember, uint formatIndex); Dunno ...Show All

• M a t i a s MinHeight on Scrollbar Thumb?

  Is there a way to set the minimum height of the thumb on a vertical scrollbar Similar to windows, when a scrolling area contains a significant amount of content, the thumb or 'floater' becomes very short. I am trying to prevent this using templated styles for a scrollbar, but have not been able to customize the dimensions of the thumb. Thanks a lot Neil, it works!!   I would like to have an answer on that question too! Our designer made a fancy image to use as a thumb, but when the number of items becomes too much the image is cut. And he doesn't like that! So anybody has any idea how to solve this Haven't tried it, but this looks like it should work. YourScrollb ...Show All
