Hi, I want to be able to know what is the fallback mechanism for a language, and do it in code. for example: i have files that aren't resource files but are different for different cultures. i want to search manualy for a culture directory according to my culture. and if i don't find it there, i want to search for the fallback culture and so on, till i get to the root directory if the culture isn't found. My question is: how can i find the "next fallback" culture for a given culture, thru code. Thanks, Yanai [SOLVED] The CultureInfo class has a "Parent" property just for that :)

Ok now i see what you mean I've set my project to work with Luna (XP) only (in the App Resource) Unfortunatley, it doesn't solve the problem...

Hi and thanks But i don't understand how is it a feature? and how is the themes gonna help me. as remembered, all i want to do is color the foreground color of my menu items in white, while the rest will stay default. and for it to work in XP\Vista\Windows 7 And i can't does anybody have a solution to that? Thanks again

Hi, There's a strange behaviour when using WPF in windows vista: i want my menu items to be White on the MainMenu of my application, while the children remain regular color. So i set the Foreground property to white (on the top level) in vista the child menu items inherit this foreground (!) I found a reference to it here: http://journals.tuxreports.com/lch/archives/004031.html[^] Does any have a solution for that? Note: when setting all the other item to "Black", i use the feature of opposite color when selecetd, and i don't want to implement it by myself Thanks, Yanai

Hi I'm looking for an IP Text box implementation, either with a mask or windows style (4 boxes, with the abillity to copy\paste etc) Any one has done it before? Thanks,

Thanks, I just want to know, when designing a new application, which approach is best

Hi, I was wondering what is better for performance in WPF. Drawing in code or using image files. and if so, what is the best format Thanks

Thanks, I will appreciate if anyone have an idea :) it's a tricky one

Hi, Thanks again, but actually i have some problems with this. when i uncheck the checkbox the text in the textbox is replaced correctly, but the target property isn't (MyProperty) when i put null in MyProperty the checkbox is'nt unchecked (i changed the ConvertBack to set false if value is null and it doesn't happen) ideas?

Thanks a lot, it's brilliant. Just one question, why is the binding to the checkbox is one way? when changing a value to null i wish the checkbox to uncheck itself

Hi, I would like to hear your thoughts and ideas about this one. in my application i have controls that are binded to objects properties. but.. the controls always looks like that: a check box, label that explain the settings and then the edited control (for ex: text box) when unchecking the checkbox i disable the text box (using binding) when the checkbox is unchecked i want the property to contain null, and when it is checked i would like the property to contain the text box's text. Of course text box can be NumericUpDown, ComboBox, DatePicker etc.. Do you have any smart way of doing it using binding or do i have to do everything on code; I really would like to a build a control that supports that and re-use it all over Ideas? Thanks,

Thanks a lot, it's a great solution

Hi everybody, I tried to have a transparent toolbar (Background="Transparent") but the overflow area (this thingy with a button that you can drag the toolbar from - don't know it's technical name :) ) stayed. Does anybody know how to make it be transparent without the need of a new control template which requires me to build everything from scratch? I know i won't have any overflow items and the toolbar is fixed (can't be drag) i will appreciate a clue :) Yanai

Weird stuff... when putting a ScrollViewer inside a window(not keeping all the window's size) inside the ScrollViewer there's (with other stuff) a WinFormsHost and a control inside (let's say a DateTimePicker). when scrolling, the inner winforms control keeps being visible when there's no longer a reason (it's outside of the scrolling region), so it "floats" above what's outside of the ScrollViewer any solutions for that? Thanks, Yanai

Can you post an example? My control doesn't have the event, the scroll viewer does. and it's not necessary exist

Hi, I"m trying to make a custom control, that if inside a ScrollViewer (anywhere in the tree above), registers to the Scroll event and do something. is it even possible? if so, what's the recommended approach? i would really like to register to the event inside and it will occur only if there's a really ScrollView parent but i don't think it's possible Thanks a lot, Yanai

when performing this action, store the SelectedIndex of your item. then remove it then reselect the index-1 item in the list using SelectedIndex property (make sure to check first if there are still items in the list)

Thanks, Isn't there any source for common practices? GUI has evolved a lot in the past 10 years and i would really think there will be a source for dos and don'ts, ground rules or something like that

Thanks for the help. unfortunatley i think it won't work for me. The data binding thing i can do only if i know in advanced which items will be in the combo box. what if i bind it to a list of strings? about the automatic thing. it didn't work. i have enough room in a grid's auto size column. the combo box just change it's width every time i choose something from the list to fit the minimum width required (by controls on the same column) any solution for that? Thanks, Yanai

It's a 3rd party product which i have the code for
