Decimal separator and textboxes

[Gian]

Hello, i've some problems binding decimal values (double) with the TextBox or TextBlock control. The value is showed with the english decimal separator ( . ) and not the local one ( , ) This is an example: http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/3120/xamlny0.png[^] The same problem appears when i create a property in my classes then return (via the get function) a value calculated on the fly. If i bind directly the control with a double property without the get/set functions it works correctly. Do i need to set somewhere the culture? I've tried to change it in the project settings but without solving anything.

If you use binding you need to make sure that you properly create the WPF compliant properties in the code. The syntax is slightly different than regular properties that only work with non-WPF controls. Normal property:

public string Test
{
get;
set;
}

I following code is WPF compliant for interaction with binding (also found in this MSDN article[^]:

public static readonly DependencyProperty IsSpinningProperty =
DependencyProperty.Register(
"IsSpinning", typeof(Boolean),

...

);

public bool IsSpinning
{
get { return (bool)GetValue(IsSpinningProperty); }
set { SetValue(IsSpinningProperty, value); }
}
