Personnalize containerShape with grid

[nicolasf]

Hi,

 

I would like to personnalize the ContainerShape but if i change Template property, all events (resize, connector) disappear.

Do you have a example of a full personnalized ContainerShape ?

Thanks.

This is my code

<Setter Property="Template">
    <Setter.Value>
        <ControlTemplate>
            <Grid Background="DimGray">
                <Grid.RowDefinitions>
                    <RowDefinition Height="35"></RowDefinition>
                    <RowDefinition Height="*"></RowDefinition>
                </Grid.RowDefinitions>
                <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Grid.Row="0">
                    <TextBlock x:Name="EntityContent" Text="test" Width="250" Height="35" Foreground="White" />
                </StackPanel>
                <Grid Grid.Row="2">
                    <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                        <ColumnDefinition Width="40*" />
                        <ColumnDefinition Width="20*" />
                        <ColumnDefinition Width="40*" />
                    </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                    <StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" x:Name="EntityDataIn" Grid.Column="0"></StackPanel>
                    <StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" x:Name="EntityDataOut" Grid.Column="2"></StackPanel>
                </Grid>
            </Grid>
        </ControlTemplate>
    </Setter.Value>
</Setter>

Hello ,

Looking at the provided code snippet you are overriding the custom template of the container shape and haven't implemented the visual states of the container. If you want to modify the container shape it will be better to extract the default template of the container shape and modify the part that you need. We have Editing Control Templates which will help to extract the default template of the container shape.

You can take a look at the OrgChart example in our desktop WPF Controls Demo application.
