I am new to WPF and utilizing the XamDiagram with mostly VB code-behind operations to configure it as well as manipulating nodes. Is it possible to embed user controls in a DiagramNode using code-behind?
Thanks for any help you can offer!
Matt
Hello Mathew,
A UserControl can be used as node for the XamDiagram by setting it as a DisplayTemplate for the node. Gergana has shared a sample project on the same at http://es.infragistics.com/community/forums/t/93312.aspx. Please refer to her last update where a code behind solution was provided.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thank you for the reply!
I had previously looked at the referenced example, but I was having a hard time grasping how to utilize a user control that is part of my project rather than a template directly in XAML. I would like to have nodes consist of more complex controls for editing/displaying data that can accessed from code-behind.
I am utilizing this control in a VB WinForms project and my experience with XAMl and WPF is limited, thus my tendency to utilize VB code-behind.
Thanks,
Hello Matt,You can create the UserControl as a separate class and then just add it as content to the DataTemplate. I have modified the sample from the other forum thread and add a method CreateUserControlDataTemplate() to create a DataTemplate with the custom UserControl1 class.Let me know if you need further assistance.
Thank you for the feedback Matt!Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions related to Infragistics products.
Thank you very much Maria, this is very helpful!
I viewed the example provided and it is exactly what I needed to get me going in the right direction.
Thank you!
