@bolt-b why is your Binding OneWay?

I think this will break connection as soon as one clicks the button.

@bolt-b

@timunie , I've tried all "BindingWays" variants. That makes no difference.
The button continues living its own life whilst the binding is living its own life.
Is there a way to disable button's internal links and leave binding link only? It needs to have white-green only by binding, not by pushing button.

Tim

@timunie

Can you show me your Property you bind do?

is it public AND implements INotifyPropertyChanged?

Meanwhile let me test it in the demo App

bolt-b

@bolt-b

The property is ok, visible in intellisense and boolean. Based on MVVM light. There have not been any problems with.

ok please test that.

Tim

@timunie

it works on my side

bolt-b

@bolt-b

is there a difference in code?

Tim

@timunie

not in XAML

Ok Mode=TwoWay

bolt-b

@bolt-b

where?

Tim

@timunie

Maybe the property

I have not your Property

bolt-b

@bolt-b

...and it works by true coming from binding only?

Tim

@timunie

yep

And I think there is an issue in your MVVM

So please share your code of the Property

bolt-b

@bolt-b

nothing special... standard property made by code snippet.
I have got hundreds identical ones, all working.

 public bool BooleanValue
        {
            get { return _booleanValue; }
            set { Set(ref _booleanValue, value); }
        }
        private bool _booleanValue;

@timunie

very strange, but not MahApps related as it works in the demo

@bolt-b

@timunie thank you, seems I found a culprit. it was App specific issue. Not WPF and Mahapps.

Tim

@timunie

I sent you a private link

It's a tool which helped me in the past

@bolt-b

Oh, I see.

Hello there! I've been using MahApps for some time now, but only now am I really getting into utilizing the ThemeManager within my apps and have a little question or a possible feature request: Are there any brushes within each of the themes that could give me the Accent colour when using a Light theme, but a dark grey colour when using a Dark theme? Or perhaps vice versa - a brush that would produce accented colour for Dark theme and a shade of dark grey for the Light theme? There's a lot of brushes that switch between dark grey and white depending on the theme, but I haven't found any that would switch between the accent and grey.

@timunie

Hi @JendolaRajda

You can roll your own ThemeManager and adjust it the way you need to.

https://www.github.com/ControlzEx/ControlzEx/tree/develop/Wiki%2FThemeManager.md

Have a look at

Override the LibraryThemeProvider

Happy theming

@TripleNico

Hi all! Is there a helper function in Mahapps to start a MetroWindow on it's own thread instead of the MainWindow thread?

@rabster007

Hi! Does anyone have any experience with TextBoxHelper.IsWaitingForData? Is there a way to change the color of the effect? When my theme is set to dark, the effect isn't visible.

Tim

@timunie

Hi @TripleNico This is normal WPF and not MahApps related.

Anyway you can find more information about this here: https://is.gd/uEQ4Yw

Happy coding, Tim

@timunie

Hi @rabster007

I think you can override this effect by overriding this DynamicResource in your App.xaml or in any Resources section

https://github.com/MahApps/MahApps.Metro/blob/91002e95f1acc6b69c7f3a290a46afffb82e44ba/src/MahApps.Metro/Styles/Controls.Shadows.xaml#L16-L22

Just try to copy&paste the lines given in the link and modify to your needs. I have not tested it yet, so if it doesn't work please come back.

Happy coding, Tim

@rabster007

Thanks Tim, I actually did end up doing that shortly after asking my question. I can get it to work as long as I set a specific color but I still haven't been able to set it based on the theme (I'd like to set it to the current accent). If you have any additional suggestions, I appreciate the guidance. Thanks :)

@rabster007

Cancel that.. I was able to figure it out after sleeping on it :)

Tim

@timunie

@rabster007 you are welcome.

does anyone encountered a weird behavior using dialog windows along with child windows?

I open a progress dialog when I open a childwindow to wait for an api call
