Im a complete Noob to this so im having a really hard time wrapping my head around how this works.
Basically I have a Main Page that im using, and within the XAML i have created a menu
What I have is a Document (DummyDoc) that contains a TextBox within it that i am trying to send the find command to.
Ive tried this every which way and googled it but i just cant seem to get it to work for me and could use some help with a push in the right direction
Main form
<Window>
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:i="clr-namespace:DMC_Robot_Editor"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:DMC_Robot_Editor.GUI"
<Menu>
<MenuItem Header="_Edit">
<MenuItem Header="_Cut"/>
</MenuItem>
<MenuItem/>
<Grid>
<local:DummyDoc x:Name="_Editor"/>
</Grid>
</Window>
That is the main form that i am using. then i have my second document "DummyDoc"
<ad:DocumentContent x:Name="document" x:Class="DMC_Robot_Editor.Controls.DummyDoc"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:ad="clr-namespace:AvalonDock;assembly=AvalonDock"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:DMC_Robot_Editor.Controls"
xmlns:ed="schemas.microsoft.com/expression/2010/drawing"
Title="Window1" Height="300" Width="300"
IsVisibleChanged="Is_VisibleChanged" PropertyChanged="document_PropertyChanged">
<Grid>
<Menu >
<MenuItem Header="_File">
<MenuItem Header="was here"/>
</MenuItem>
</Menu>
<local:Editor x:Name="source" IsVisibleChanged="Is_VisibleChanged" TextChanged="TextChanged" UpdateFunctions="raiseupdated" />
<local:Editor x:Name="data" Visibility="Hidden" IsVisibleChanged="Is_VisibleChanged" TextChanged="TextChanged" UpdateFunctions="raiseupdated"/>
</Grid>
</ad:DocumentContent>
DummyDoc is a window that has an Inherited Editor in it.
<avalonedit:TextEditor
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:avalonedit="http://icsharpcode.net/sharpdevelop/avalonedit"
x:Class="DMC_Robot_Editor.Controls.Editor"
x:Name="editor"
mc:Ignorable="d"
d:DesignHeight="300"
d:DesignWidth="300"
TextChanged="Text_Changed"
IsVisibleChanged="raiseUpdate"
MouseMove="Mouse_Move"
MouseHover="Mouse_Hover"
MouseHoverStopped="Mouse_Hover_Stopped" KeyUp="editor_KeyUp">
</avalonedit:TextEditor>
My Ultimate Question is how do i use WPF Binding to make the "Cut" Action from the main form initiate the cut() method of the textbox?
I wrote textbox in it because in code behind, im doing the following
partial class DummyDoc:DocumentContent
{
public Editor TextBox{get;set;}
private void Is_VisibleChanged(object sender, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
{
if (sender is Editor)
this.TextBox = sender as Editor;
if ((VisibilityChanged != null) && (TextBox != null))
raiseupdated(TextBox, new FunctionEventArgs(this.TextBox.Text));
}
}
