c#,silverlight,windows-phone-8,windows-phone-8.1
As it happens sometimes, right after asking the question I figured out what is causing the issue. It seems like the project just had to be rebuild completely in order for the the tile titles to show up properly. No wonder I couldn't find any info on this in the...
How to generate OData v4 Client for Silverlight 5?
silverlight,asp.net-web-api,odata,generator,odata-v4
Silverlight does not support the code generated by Microsoft's OData v4 Client Code Generator visx (OData Client T4), but no one's forcing you to use generated code. Simply use the lib of your choice to create a connection to the OData service and reuse your own types (business objects)....

c#,silverlight,windows-phone-8,submission,windows-phone-store
.appx files are generated if you develop Windows Store apps (Windows 8/8.1) and as far as i know also Universal Apps. it seems like you develop for Windows Phone! 8/8.1. What you get after compiling is a .xap-file. When you log in to your developer account (https://dev.windows.com/en-us/dashboard) you can decide...
Silverlight Nested Custom Controls results in StackOverflowException
c#,xaml,silverlight,controls,stack-overflow
I stumbled upon that splendid effect myself, and as it turned out: You can't instantiate an object derived from UIElement (your line <local:Control1/> tries exactly this) in a ResourceDictionary (and generic.xaml is one), because all objects in said dictionary must be shareable. Documented here. Relevant section: Shareable Types and UIElement...
How do I get the child controls of a ListBox?
Like you say this is probably best done in the ViewModel but you can select all the sub list items in code behind using VisualTreeHelper. private void StuffListBox_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e) { var stuffListBox = (ListBox)sender; ListBoxItem item = (ListBoxItem)stuffListBox.ContainerFromItem(stuffListBox.SelectedItem); ListBox sublist = FindVisualChild<ListBox>(item); sublist.SelectAll(); } FindVisualChild Method as per...

How do I access MainPage class non-static members from the App class?
c#,wpf,xaml,silverlight,windows-phone-8.1
I would solve this problem using Reactive Extensions (RX). You can add Reactive Extensions (RX) to your project using NuGet, search for rx-main and install Reactive Extensions - Main Library. Both of your pages would access a common class which would have a Subject<T>. One page would publish events to...
Silverlight: DataGrid.SelectedIndex always getting -1
You cannot save Init params between sessions with the approach you posted. Here is an article describing how you can read the init params and store them in the isolated storage. They are not supposed to be set by your code like you did here: Application.Current.Host.InitParams["CurrentRow"] = dataGrid1.SelectedIndex.ToString(); [Edit] Ok,...
Lots of namespace/assembly reference build errors - Windows Phone 8.1 Client App
c#,web-services,wcf,silverlight,windows-phone-8.1
The problem appears to be a External Service linked to localhost which very probably wasn't running on the other machine. Please link your project to a Service located in a remote location reachable from both computers or run the Service application in each computer you want to test your project.

Thanks @Will for hint. Here's a working code: private StorageFile storageFile; private async void ComposeEmail(String subject, String messageBody, StorageFile fl) { var msg = new EmailMessage(); msg.Subject = subject; msg.Body = messageBody; msg.To.Add(new EmailRecipient("[email protected]")); String attachmentFile = fl.Name; if (fl != null && attachmentFile != "") { try { var...
Xaml - Binding in FallBackValue
c#,xaml,silverlight,binding,telerik
I can think of at least two ways: First Solution (solved in the DataContext): Add a property to your DataContext type, something like ResolvedFirstName and the value is either taken from FirstName or FirstName2, and when either of the two is changed the ResolvedFirstName is re-evaluated. public string ResolvedFirstName {...
How to create bottom to top slide menu like app bar in Windows Phone
wpf,xaml,silverlight,windows-phone-7,windows-phone-8
Developing view transitions from scratch is no easy feat, but luckily enough, there are pre-written libraries that can do this for us. The best that I have found so far is called Transitionals. You can download the dll from the Transitionals page at CodePlex.
List.BinarySearch Windows Phone
c#,silverlight,windows-phone-7
Since compare is based on the word, you can create new instance with input word and pass it to the BinarySearch method: List<ShortWord> words; int index = words.BinarySearch(new ShortWord() { Word = text, }; if (index >= 0) { ShortWord result = words[index]; } Accoring to MSDN, BinarySearch will use...
ContentControl (CheckBox) does not inherit Foreground
The best I could find is this, which may be an explanation: Property value inheritance behavior is not globally enabled for all dependency properties, because the calculation time for inheritance does have some performance impact. Property value inheritance is typically only enabled for properties where a particular scenario suggests that...
