• Ajay GAC support in Templating Engine (Feature Request)

  Hello, Templating Engine provided with DSL Tools is really great and useful, but it would be more convenient to use if it had support for referencing assemblies in GAC. I know that it is problem of CSharpCompiler... which doesn't support referencing assemblies in GAC, but you can extend the functionality of Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextTemplating.VSHost.TextTemplatingService.ResolveAssemblyReference() method to search the ...Show All

• MrTufty Accessing properties of UserControl

  Hi, This is probably a stupid question, but I dont seem to find a way to access, for example, the Width property of an UserControl from within the control itself :( Here is sample of the code I've tried (with all Binding variations that I could come up with). The actual code is more complex, and I really need to use Canvas instead of auto-layouting components: <!-- the user control xaml --> <UserControl x:Class="pb.UserControl1"   ...Show All

• FerdBirfel Plotting Points in 3D Space

  Is there any way to draw points in 3D space with WPF I suppose I would have to create a mesh geometry of some kind. But I just want a one pixel point.

Something like: ScreenSpaceLines3D p = new ScreenSpaceLines3D (); p.Points.Add( new Point3D (.01,1,0)); p.Points.Add( new Poin ...Show All
