    ...in the WPF forum, and some 'tard 1-voted it. I didn't even bad-mouth WPF in it (I save that for The Lounge)...

                So what? If you can handle the crapiness of WPF, I am sure you can take that. Don't be like 'lil girl. Isn't you who don't care about number of posts or votes?

                Yusuf Can I help you?

                    I five'd your question to get you up to 3. FWIW, MDI support for WPF/Windows Forms integration is abysmal. It's a pity people have to:

                    1. Take criticism of a technology personally
                    2. View the 'Bad Question' icon as some form of magic elevator which makes the root causes of the criticism get swallowed by a vermicious knid

                      You really gotta try harder to keep up with everyone that's not on the short bus with you. In the lounge or the soapbox, i don't care about the votes, in the articles and the programming forums, I do. As far as *giving* votes, I doubt if I've handed out many more than a just couple of dozen message votes over the last eight years (if you don't count the "report this message" stuff). As far as how much WPF sucks, well, that's not even remotely related to this topic. So, try not to be distracted by shiny things while you're on this site. I'm really not in the mood to make sure everyone is reading from the same script...

                          At first glance, it looks like you posted a shitload of code and then asked people to debug it. That tends to generate a negative response.

                              That would be the *mountains* of xml crap that one must output to do even the simplest of things in WPF/XAML. So any kind of code sample to help describe a WPF problem is, unfortunately, going to have to deal with this.

                                    At first glance, it looks like you posted a shitload of code and then asked people to debug it. That tends to generate a negative response.

                                    I trimmed as much out of it as I dared to without losing context through omission. That is the nature of WPF. As it is, I had to gather all that crap from three different files - the state of WPF coding requirements certainly can't be blamed on me, nor can I be criticized for posting the code in question. At least it's in a frakking <PRE> tag. How many of the wanna-be programmers have used the <PRE> tag to format a code block here in the last 24 hours? Few, if any, besides me.

                                      Maybe next time you need to not use the <PRE> tag, not indenting and make sure half the less than/greater than signs are missing. :)

                                        Yeah, you and me both. Every time I find a bug in VS2008, or .NET, or anything else, I post about it here, and get a ton of 1 votes. No-one ever posts and says that the bug does not exist, but saying it does, gets me 1s

                                        With you Christian, we know whether the bug exists or not doesn't matter since none of us will ever see it. :)

                                          ...in the WPF forum, and some 'tard 1-voted it. I didn't even bad-mouth WPF in it (I save that for The Lounge)...

                                          I've noticed a lot of perfectly good questions get 1-voted. I can understand if it is spam, but there are a lot of reasonable questions that a newbie might ask are being voted down.
