I was wondering if there is presently a way in MVVMCross to do a custom title bar on the MvxTabsFragmentActivity?
I'm using the MvxTabsFragmentActivity to implement the ActionBar. In all of the documentation I've seen you need to request this feature in the OnCreate method of the activity.
When I try to do this:
protected override void OnCreate (Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
RequestWindowFeature(WindowFeatures.CustomTitle);
base.OnCreate (savedInstanceState);
}
I get an error that says "You cannot combine custom titles with other title features." When it hits:
base.OnCreate (savedInstanceState);
I've tried doing base.RequestWindowFeature(WindowFeatures.CustomTitle) but I get the same error.
I'm not seeing anything in MvxTabsFragmentActivity that does anything with the title bar... Has anyone else tried to do this?
Thanks!

I'm using SmartGWT.
I used addScrolledHandler so that 3grids can be scrolled together as below.
firstGrid.addScrolledHandler(new ScrolledHandler() {
#Override
public void onScrolled(ScrolledEvent event) {
Integer eventsToSink = firstGrid.getRowTop(event.getY());
firstGrid.scrollToRow(eventsToSink);
secondGrid.scrollToRow(eventsToSink);
thirdGrid.scrollToRow(eventsToSink);
}
});
When I scrolled down the first grid, other grids also were scrolled. However, it doesn't scroll up after then.
I found this message.
"Unable to preventDefault inside passive event listener due to target being treated as passive. See "
Regarding this message, I checked and found that I have to set passive value to false.
However, I am not sure how I can do that when using smartGWT..
I want to create a function which takes the Caption of a pressed button and put it into an Edit field. I have multiple buttons, and I don't want to have multiple OnClick events with almost the same code in each of them.
I've searched and tried out stuff for hours, but can't seem to find anything like that (but I think I am not the only one with this problem).
I am not really new to programming but neither am I good at it.
Edit: I remember that there is a parameter in the click functions in .NET which is EventArgs e, which is missing while working with Embarcadero.
private void button_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
edit.Text = e.Caption; //I don't really remember the exact syntax but I hope you get what I meant
}
Most VCL/FMX event handlers have a Sender parameter, which is a pointer to the object that is firing the event. For example:
void __fastcall TMyForm::ButtonClick(TObject *Sender)
{
Edit1->Text = static_cast<TButton*>(Sender)->Caption;
}
Just assign this single event handler to the OnClick event of all of your TButton objects. The Sender will be the current button being pressed.
Note to the above answer by Remy - for VCL the property name is "Caption" but for FMX the property name for a button is "Text"
I'm trying to migrate from Bootstrap to Polymer/Paper and I've got a lot of situations where I have to enable/disable buttons that were previously accessed as ButtonElements and then .disabled=true/false.
So for example I've got a paper button I'm trying to access and enable/disable via querySelector as such:
PaperButton nextWeekButton = querySelector("#nextweekbutton");
nextWeekButton.disabled=!_status;
But I am getting the error: type 'HtmlElement' is not a subtype of type 'PaperButton' of 'nextWeekButton'.
I get the same variety of message if I try as an InputElement or ButtonElement. If I try to get it as an HtmlElement then of course I get the "setter 'disabled' is not defined..."
I was going to start playing around with attribute setting but really shouldn't there be a way to do this that's like the ButtonElement? Just want to make sure I am not missing anything.
Update: For now I am doing this
void disableButton(Element _e, bool _status) {
if(!_status) {
_e.setAttribute("disabled","true");
} else {
_e.attributes.remove("disabled");
}
}
I'm pretty sure the problem is that your code is executed before Polymer is initialized. See https://stackoverflow.com/a/20982658/217408 how to initialize Polymer when you have a custom main method.
I have an application in which most of the controls are created in code and then added to the layout using AddView method. Does the framework allow binding of ViewModel properties to controls using code or it has to be done in the axml file only?
Alright, after a lot of struggle I finally got the answer.
I had to do the following things.
1) Added an import statement :
using Cirrious.MvvmCross.Binding.BindingContext;
2) Added the following code:
protected override void OnCreate(Bundle bundle)
{
base.OnCreate(bundle);
SetContentView(Resource.Layout.Hello);
TableLayout containerLayout = this.FindViewById<TableLayout>(Resource.Id.containerLayout);
if (containerLayout != null)
{
TableRow newRow = new TableRow(base.ApplicationContext);
newRow.SetMinimumHeight(50);
var txtRace = new EditText(ApplicationContext);
txtRace.Hint = "Race";
var bindingSet = this.CreateBindingSet<HelloView, HelloViewModel>();
bindingSet.Bind(txtRace).To(vm => vm.Race);
bindingSet.Apply();
newRow.AddView(txtRace);
containerLayout.AddView(newRow);
}
}
I already have a "TableLayout" in my HelloView.axml file and all that I am doing in this is creating a new EditText box control (txtRace) and adding it to the view and at the same time binding it to the "Race" property of HelloViewModel object.
I spend a lot of time trying to figure out in what namespace CreateBindingSet() method exists because VS2012 was not giving me any intelliscence on that.
Hope this helps someone facing similar issue.
Yes MvvmCross supports binding properties to controls created at runtime. You can watch this tutorial by the awesome Mr. Stuart in his N+1 series.

Note: He has shown this many a times in the series but I remember this one on the top of my head right now.
I've got a shell tray icon with an attached context menu. The problem I'm having is that calling ShowDialog() from a context menu Clicked handler does not result in a modal dialog.
It's easy to reproduce this with a default C# project. Simply add the following code to the Form1.cs file:
protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
{
base.OnLoad(e);
ToolStripMenuItem contextMenuShowMsg = new System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripMenuItem();
contextMenuShowMsg.Name = "contextMenuShowMsg";
contextMenuShowMsg.Text = "Show MessageBox...";
contextMenuShowMsg.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.contextMenuShowMsg_Click);
ContextMenuStrip contextMenuStrip = new System.Windows.Forms.ContextMenuStrip(this.components);
contextMenuStrip.Items.Add(contextMenuShowMsg);
NotifyIcon notifyIcon = new NotifyIcon();
notifyIcon.Text = "DlgTest";
notifyIcon.Icon = SystemIcons.Application;
notifyIcon.Visible = true;
notifyIcon.ContextMenuStrip = contextMenuStrip;
}
private void contextMenuShowMsg_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MessageBox.Show(this, "Test MessageBox");
}
If you build and run this, you will be able to get two message boxes on the screen by simply choosing the context menu item twice. Shouldn't this be modal? Replacing this with a call to ShowDialog() for another form results in the same non-modal behavior.
My best guess is that the NotifyIcon isn't specifically tied to the Form, as it would be in a typical Windows application. But I don't see any way of doing that.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance for any help!
I would suggest doing two things before you attempt to display a modal message box:
Make your icon's owner-window visible.
Give it focus.
Once you've done that, the this in the MessageBox.Show becomes a legal "modality parent".
Heck, it even makes more sense that the message box will be displayed on top of whatever program generated it, right? That way, the user has some context for what the message box is about!
You will need to keep track of activations of your system tray menu, and disable it when a dialog is open.
