It looks like you’re trying to do some sort of skinning? I’d recommend defining the resources in a Resource Dictionary contained in a separate file. Then in code (App.cs to load a default, then elsewhere to change) you can load the resources as so: //using System.Windows ResourceDictionary dict = new ResourceDictionary(); dict.Source = new Uri(“MyResourceDictionary.xaml”, … Read more
It is a tricky thing indeed, more complicated than it should be if the language was designed well… Basically, you just can’t do it cleanly in current versions. Objects other than functions can not be callable. In future Javascript versions, you can do it with a “proxy” object that can define a “call” handler. But … Read more
You can achieve it by defining ItemsPanel property of MenuItem. Create an ItemsPanelTemplate resource <ItemsPanelTemplate x:Key=”MenuItemPanelTemplate”> <StackPanel Margin=”-20,0,0,0″ Background=”White”/> </ItemsPanelTemplate> Add below MenuItem style to resources and you are done. <Style TargetType=”{x:Type MenuItem}”> <Setter Property=”ItemsPanel” Value=”{StaticResource MenuItemPanelTemplate}”/> </Style> To apply same Style to a ContextMenu, you need to create one more Style as following- <Style … Read more
I would do it like this: <Window.Resources> <DataTemplate x:Key=”NormalItemTemplate” …> … </DataTemplate> <DataTemplate x:Key=”SelectionBoxTemplate” …> … </DataTemplate> <DataTemplate x:Key=”CombinedTemplate”> <ContentPresenter x:Name=”Presenter” Content=”{Binding}” ContentTemplate=”{StaticResource NormalItemTemplate}” /> <DataTemplate.Triggers> <DataTrigger Binding=”{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor,ComboBoxItem,1}}” Value=”{x:Null}”> <Setter TargetName=”Presenter” Property=”ContentTemplate” Value=”{StaticResource SelectionBoxTemplate}” /> </DataTrigger> </DataTemplate.Triggers> </DataTemplate> </Window.Resources> … <ComboBox ItemTemplate=”{StaticResource CombinedTemplate}” ItemsSource=”…” … /> The reason this works is that CombinedTemplate … Read more
Sorry, but some answers are incorrect on Linux with Glibc On Linux with a GNU Glibc, you can customize printf: you would call register_printf_function to e.g. define the meaning of %Y in your printf format strings. However, this behavior is Glibc specific, and might even become obsolete… I’m not sure I would recommend this approach! … Read more
Styling the ListPreference from XML is not directly possible. The problem is that ListPreference (through DialogPreference) calls AlertDialog.Builder(Context) to build its Dialog, rather than AlertDialog.Builder(Context context, int themeResourceId). While the latter allows for providing a theme, the former does not, causing it to fall back to a default Android theme. For a project, I needed … Read more
As discussed here on Stack Overflow, there will not be a customizer for Bootstrap 4. This means that you’ll have to build the Sass files manually. This can be achieved with the sass npm package, for example. I’ve also created a tool that handles compiling the Sass and vendor prefixing, which I’ve been using to … Read more
Check out the inflect package. It will pluralize things, as well as do a whole host of other linguistic trickery. There are too many situations to special-case these yourself! From the docs at the link above: import inflect p = inflect.engine() # UNCONDITIONALLY FORM THE PLURAL print(“The plural of “, word, ” is “, p.plural(word)) … Read more
The other answers didn’t work for multiple lines. Therefore I initially continued using the undocumented cFlags.vCentered property, but that caused my app to be rejected from the app store. I ended up using a modified version of Matt Bell’s solution that works for multiple lines, word wrapping, and a truncated last line: -(void)drawInteriorWithFrame:(NSRect)cellFrame inView:(NSView *)controlView … Read more
You can see an example in Substance look-and-feel (mirrored source). Search the code for SubstanceRootPaneUI and SubstanceTitlePane. The implementation depends on other classes in Substance, and will not be easy to reuse outside the specific library – nor is it meant to.
