i want to swipe webbrowser Control which is on pivot item ,each pivot item
has a web control .i want to swipe with web browser control .
but i don't have any idea.but swiping is necessary in my project .is there any method to doing this if yes then please send me sample code for this ..
This is a bind if you have some different sections of HTML you want to display in a Pivot. If you are targetting WP7 Mango it might be possible for you to convert your HTML to RTF and then use a RichTextBox instead of a WebBrowser. However if your HTML is fairly complex, this probably isn't going to work for you.
Alternatively you could place your WebBrowser in a pivot item with a transparent Rectangle above it in the Z-order. Make sure that Rectangle swallows any gestures and doesn't pass them through to the WebBrowser control - that way you will be able to swipe left and right on the WebBrowser to get the pivot to move.
Next you can use the GestureService on this transparent rectangle to recognize vertical pans/swipes and taps to take you to a full page view of your WebBrowser content. In this full page view you would have a fully interactive WebBrowser control.
You have an issue with competing gestures. Try setting the WebBrowser control to IsHitTestVisible to false. This will mean that you'll be unable to manipulate or scroll the content of the WebBrowser control though.
shanu: if you still need it, check my recent answer at: WP7 Pivot control and a WebBrowser control
There's a bit of info on how to "hack into" the webbrowser and what to do, to (almost) prevent it from stealing your swipes. If you are insane/masochistic enough to try that approach I described there, then in addition to that eventhandling and other configuration/detection, you will have to drive your pivot manually via relevant pivot.selectedindex++/-- on H-swipes detected with your handlers (or you can separate blocking and observing with gesture listener, that may sometimes result in the code being a bit cleaner). I also think you will have to be careful with the selectedindex near to the page ranges. I dont know how pivot behaves if you order it to go further than you page count, and I dont know either if it will animate correctly, if being on the last page you order it to go "wrap around" and go to page 0 via selectedindex=0. It may get "crazy" and rewind back instead of going forward in a circular fashion.. you will have to experiment with that

This question about WP8 project.
I have a LongListSelector with pictures and html formatted text below. Currently each pictire implemented as an Item of the list. The last Item with browser has its own template and shows WebBrowser instead of picture.
I am expected this item behave such as TextBox which I can scroll by interacting with LongListSelector.
But this WebBrowser has it's own scroll inside and intercepts any surrounding scrolling events. Thus whenever I scroll down the list to show WebBrowserControl to the whole screen, I can't go back to the pictures.
Please help me with this issue. What is the appropriate solution? I need a separate pictures since want to implement "Clicked" logic on top of it. And I want to have WebBrowser too (but prefer to behave it similar to RichTextBox (which I can't find in WP8))
USE ListBox.ItemTemplate along with DataTemplate and inside dataTemplate we could custom create xaml tag !
In my WP8 application I use LongListMultiSelector and I would like to save it's scroll position when application is closed or tombstoned and then restore it when application is opened again. I will also need to scroll it programmatically to a specified item or specified position with animation when application is active.
The problem is that so far I can't find any methods on LongListMultiSelector that will allow me to scroll it with or without animation to a specified item or position. I also can't find methods that will allow me to get a list of all current items so I could choose of them to which one to scroll.
It can't be that scrolling is unmanageable on LongListMultiSelector so I'd like to get your advice on how I can get to this scroll functionality.
LongListSelector is kind of a "smart" controls. It means it has very complex behaviour but if you need to change it - better you shouldn't...
You have two options:
Write your own behavior on top of the content of the LongListMultiSelector. It contains primitives:ScrollBox control inside it.
Use standard LongListSelector and implement native ScrollTo method and your own multiselection. Multiselection is a simple task, ScrollTo is quite tricky since you basically can't scroll to position, only to item.
I've been struggling for weeks trying to crack this nut so I'm not sure if it's impossible, or if it's my lack of coding chops... or both. I'm not a programmer and I'm a newbie to Dojo Toolkit.
I have a site using the BorderContainer layout. I'm trying to create an effect where I can use a button to open and close a dropdown type box that will contain controls. I need this dropdown to be hidden on page load, and then open when you click the button.
My problem is that when I open the dropdown, it pushes the content pane below it off the bottom of the browser window. I need the lower ContentPane to stay fit within the remaining space of the browser window when the dropdown opens. Additionally, I want the dropdown to sit outside of the scrollable container for the content below it, which is why I have it set up to sit outside a nested BorderContainer below it.
I've created a simplified version of the code to demonstrate my challenge (see link below). If you load the page you can see the center ContentPane scrolls the content. But, if you then click on the button, a dropdown div expands above the content. Then when you scroll, you'll notice that you can't see the full pane because it's in no-man's-land below the bottom of the browser window. I assume that because the div is set to display:none on load, it's size is not accounted for on page load. Then, when you open it by pressing the button, it's size is additive and the pane below doesn't know how to resize or account for the new element.
I've tried using the visibility attribute, but that leaves a gap for the div when it's still closed. I've tinkered with some code that controls the height that shows promise, but each of my dropdown boxes will be different sizes so I'd prefer that the height be set to "auto" rather than a specified pixel size.
Does anyone have any idea how I can accomplish this so that the lower pane will fit in the space without pushing off the screen?
Here's a sample of the page:
http://equium.com/scaffold.html
(I had some problems trying to insert the full HTML page here as a code sample so if that's a preferable way to handle it, and someone can let me know the best way to embed all of that code, I'd appreciate it.)
Thanks is advance, I'd really apprecaite anyone's feedback.
You might want to take a look at dojox.layout.ExpandoPane (though be warned I think it has only worked properly for top and left regions for a while).
Also, I'd suggest simplifying/altering your layout a bit. See example here:
http://jsfiddle.net/taFzv/
(It'd probably need some tweaking to get exactly what you want.)
The real issue you're having is probably that the BorderContainer has no idea that parts of the view resized. ExpandoPane takes care of that by telling the BorderContainer to re-layout after its animation completes.
It works under IE8.0. When dropdown box open, just keep pressing mouse from page and drag to bottom, you could see the content was pushed to out of page. It looks the browser could not detect it and could not add it to "scroll bar" account.
I would suggest taking out all BorderContainers except your top level one, the one with mainPage as the id.
Place your {stuff here} div into the mainPage BorderContainer, after the ContentPane with the Close/Open button. Make sure you make it dojotype dijit.layout.ContentPane, set up layoutpriority, and set region to top. Set the height to 0/x when clicking the Open/Close button, instead of setting display.
Try your page again. If that doesn't fix it, you probably need, a call to layout, resize, or both to indicate to the BorderContainer that it needs to evaluate all its children and size the "center" pane properly. Something like dijit.byId("mainPage").layout(); Do this any time someone presses the Close/Open button, after you have changed the height of any BorderContainer children.
Maybe the dijit.form.DropDownButton would fit your needs. When click the button a tooltip is displayed that can be filled with any content you want. Just as you specified, the dropdown tooltip is only displayed when you click the button, and it doesn't mess with the underlying layout at all. The tooltip sits "on top" of the page.
I'm developing a Windows Phone 7 application that uses some Transient content.
To avoid to go back to that transient content I've decided to use a phew page with several grids on the same page.
When I have to show another "page" I set to collapsed current grid and then I set to visible desired grid.
I know this can be done using user control, but I'm not sure if using user controls can be slowest that using Grids. Any advice?
And another question is if I use grids, how can I use page transitions?
Another option for when you want to show transient content is to use a Popup control. This won't appear in the navigation stack, so when a user goes back (<-) they won't see this content.
However, Popup content isnt GPU accelerated, so you only want to display simple content, no animations etc...
If you want page transitions etc... then i think your only option is to use Pages. That way you can do the transitions and the back button works as expected.
It doesn't matter if you do this via user controls or grids - what matters speed wise is the complexity of your layout.
A user control may be better if you are doing this on a number of pages so you don't repeat yourself.
One way to do page transitions is to do it with stack panels. Have the second "hidden" stack panel way off to the right so it is off screen then animate it in.
I am trying to give a ListBox drag and drop ordering functionality and I have hit a wall. I got it to work when I specify the list box items in xaml but it does not work when I bind to a list it no longer works because the items are no longer of a listboxitem type.
I found this code http://blog.dobaginski.com/josh/?p=52 that allows me to get the underlying ListBoxItem but I can't get the mouse move event to fire.
I have went through other tutorials but have not been able to find one that deals with a ListBox. Has anyone done this with a ListBox.
The events I am using are SelectedChange, MouseMove, and LeftMouseButtonUp (I think that name is right). I am not using LeftMouseButtonDown because I couldn't get it to fire.
As far as i know you cannot get at the listbox item container when using data binding. YOu could in Beta 1.
You also cannot set a mouse event handler in the style, you must use a data template, just so you know.
You will likely have to use the mouse move event from a parent element, probably the UserControl or main layout control that hosts the listbox.
State changes and animations need to be in the style though so... you still cant get at the listbox item, just the element inside it in the data template.
Oh and if doing drag and drop HitTest is now protected so that will make the Drop harder.
since today you can download the final 2.0 version of Silverlight with some add ons, check the Scott's web log
I've been trying to do the same thing in WPF,
but have only found many buggy implementations.
One person has guided me towards the blog of Beatriz Costa,
and from what I remember she's one of those rare geniouses,
so I suggest you read that as well... I know I will
