I captured stacks many times and most typical is below. Note the bold text - it is almost always there, looking for designer attribute. Solution is pretty large (76 projects, both C# and VB.NET).

It seems difficult to me to retrieve all eventhandlers associated to an object so i'm trying to get only the MouseUp handler. Here is a part of my code: MyItem.MouseUp += new MouseButtonEventHandler((MyOtherItem.MouseUp as MouseButtonEventHandler) .Clone()); This does not get the job done. I would like t

      • Is there any way to change the cursor shape from the standard arrow during drag and drop I'd like to allow drag and drop only if a specific condition is met. The business logic is not a problem, but changing the cursor to a stop sign is a major obstacle. The only solution I could think of is to change the AllowDrop property (set to false in DragEnter when a condition is not met, and back to true

I would like to make all elements visible only within the canvas area . If some of them were outside of the canvas area, they should not be visible. In other words, all child elements of the canvas should remain visible

I've looked at SortDescriptions but have no idea what the first argument needs to be.

The BitmapImage class is useless for resizing images, it introduces artefacts, major ones, at some sizes on some images. The TransformBitmap class is no good to me, it holds the full size image in memory. So, we wrote GDI+ code to load

I was hoping that with the new command stuff in WPF I'd be able to create something a bit more sane. Unfortunately, I just spent the last 8 hours banging my head against a wall, as I was unable to exploit the command system and also unable to get the traditional hacky way
