Bind Control to Two properties
Since The View-Model is an abstraction of the view that exposes public properties and commands, it doesn't make a lot of sense for a view to have two view-models the way you explained. It'll be more rational if there is a VM class as the view-model of your view that...
HttpClient returning special characters but nothing readable
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.TryAddWithoutValidation("Accept-Encoding", "gzip, deflate"); With this you tell the server that you allow it to compress the response gzip/deflate.

How to draw something in DrawingVisual with millimeter unit instead of pixels?
In WPF, you can't even draw something in pixel units without at least some extra effort. WPF uses "device independent units" where each unit is 1/96th of an inch. Even that is only a theoretical relationship, as it depends on the display device correctly reporting its resolution, which in turn...

C# Delete Row with Dynamic Textbox/Button/Grid
WPF's ItemsControl is the correct way to show items in your views when the number of items can change.
