Try something like this, <Menu DockPanel.Dock="Top"> <MenuItem Header="_File"> <MenuItem Header="Exit" InputGestureText="Ctrl+X"> </MenuItem> </MenuItem> </Menu> And look at this[^] and this[^] for the CommandBinding option

Well, it's up to you to work out what granularity of data you're capable of capturing, the point really is that I think if you have 5 files, five progress steps makes the most sense.

HI.. Thanks for the help. But I am doing this using subscribe and publish.. public class LogWindowMsgShowEvent : CompositePresentationEvent<string>       {       }                   _eventAggregator.GetEvent<LogWindowMsgShowEvent>().Subscribe(this.ShowMessage);                _eventAggr.GetEvent<StatusBarMsgShowEvent>().Publish("Database Connection Error"); so, in CompositePresentationEvent&lt;string&gt; I can see a string here.. do I need to add the class Logwindow to the CompostePresentationEvent?? Actually both the CompositePresentationEvent and the presenter it accesses are in diff modules... HOw to handle this/ Please help Thanks Ramm

You probably need to check the events raised by TreeView. I would expect that a click or select event of some form is raised when the user clicks a node, and the code behind should be able to capture that event, which will likely have a reference to the selected node. Each node in the tree has a parent property that can be used to traverse the tree to its main root. Try a search for TreeView in MSDN and look at the Properties and Events.

I would suggest some background reading on the MVP/MVVM patterns as there is something of a learning curve to get this right. You may like to start with Model View Presenter, and perhaps The Model-View-ViewModel.

Hi Guys, I could solve it, <ColumnDefinition Width="*" /> <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" MinWidth="1" /> should be the other way width property <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" /> <ColumnDefinition Width="*" MinWidth="1" /> Thanks a lot Ramm

Is there a way to have the expander bump other elements out of the way? for instance if your collapsed expander is next to a list view, can you move the listview over when you expand? probably not possible but thought id ask

Size is the size of mdf and ldf file in 8K pages. Divide the value by 128 to get the size in MB. It might come same with/without data depending upon the amount of data your DB holds. It's not necessary to be so stupid, either, but people manage it. - Christian Graus, 2009 AD

Hi, You probably need to act according to this article[^]. :) Luc Pattyn [Forum Guidelines] [My Articles] The quality and detail of your question reflects on the effectiveness of the help you are likely to get. Show formatted code inside PRE tags, and give clear symptoms when describing a problem.

I would put them in a stackpanel or a grid, and try to set them up so their size is determined by the available space, so that when you collapse one, the other would fill the space.

If you want to change the heights, you probably need to do that manually. I would imagine if you had the pairs of controls inside a single control of the combined height, and had the control you don't hide set to fill the available area, then the other control would limit it, or not, depending on if it is collapsed or not. But as you want to hide a control that is 100 high and replace it with 75 pixels of space, you'll need to do something more direct and manual. Christian Graus Driven to the arms of OSX by Vista.

Hi Mark and Lloyd, Thanks a lot for the suggestions. It worked ...   :) I was thinking that stackpanel adjusts the rest of the image stretch. Mark, Thanks for the tip. I am learning Thank you, Ramm
