Comments on: Silverlight Toolkit and the Windows Phone: WrapPanel, and a few others http://www.jeff.wilcox.name/2010/03/toolkit-and-the-windows-phone/ Silverlight, rich client apps and web development Mon, 06 Feb 2012 19:09:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Matthias Shapiro http://www.jeff.wilcox.name/2010/03/toolkit-and-the-windows-phone/comment-page-1/#comment-2743 Matthias Shapiro Fri, 18 Jun 2010 14:44:32 +0000 http://www.jeff.wilcox.name/2010/03/toolkit-and-the-windows-phone/#comment-2743 I surrounded the "Properties" errors with quotes. I also opened up the Silverlight toolkit and moved the following files into my project. LengthConverter.cs NumericalExtensions.cs TypeConverters.cs Then I changed every "myDouble.IsNaN" to "myDouble == double.NaN". This stopped all the errors and I was able to at least put a WrapPanel into the project. However, when I put something into the WrapPanel, I get the following error. "UIElement.Measure(availableSize) cannot be called with NaN values in availableSize." I surrounded the “Properties” errors with quotes. I also opened up the Silverlight toolkit and moved the following files into my project.

LengthConverter.cs
NumericalExtensions.cs
TypeConverters.cs

Then I changed every “myDouble.IsNaN” to “myDouble == double.NaN”.

This stopped all the errors and I was able to at least put a WrapPanel into the project. However, when I put something into the WrapPanel, I get the following error.

“UIElement.Measure(availableSize) cannot be called with NaN values in availableSize.”

It's trying to pull a string from the resources in the assembly for that error message. Not sure about the rest, will look into it. @Matthias,

Not sure about the rest, will look into it.

I get a series of errors including: "The name 'Properties' does not exist in the current context" and "No overload for method 'isNaN' takes 0 arguments" and "The name 'NumericExtensions' does not exist in the current context" and "The type or namespace name 'LengthConverter' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)" I've tried going to the definitions and writing them explicitly into the project, but to no avail. Could you please publish the project in which this works so we can see it in action?

Unfortunately, there is no Viewbox in ...\Silverlight\v4.0\Profile\WindowsPhone\System.Windows.dll. So I included the viewbox sources from SL toolkit v3.0 in my project. But, the compiled Viewbox can't be searched (VisualTreeHelper) for childs like the SL4 Viewbox can. There is only a single ContentPresenter in it and not the element tree applied via template. I have used the Viewbox inside of a UserControl and the user control has a ControlTemplate (with element tree) applied. Have you any tip regarding this problem? Will the next release of SL4 for WP7 contain the ViewBox? Best Regards, Paul Hi Jeff,

We're working on fixing this, but in the meantime, there isn't a good alternative - sorry! @Paul,

I've thought about an items control using animations, I think the manipulation events would work... Or a list box with horizontal stack. My biggest question is how to make it cyclic... Ideas, or maybe you have time to blog how to build one ?:) Jeff,
