WildGums/Orchestra

Orchestra is a composable shell built on top of Catel

@advapiIT

and about destructuring as Serilog does have u managed to do something similar?

@advapiIT

Excuse me Geert, I've written a keep alive service that monitors a WPF application developed with Orchestra.... if the service goes down I have to execute it (I use Process.Start("cmd /C filepath")

If I use a WPF application (a simple default one), it works. with Orchestra after the splash screen it shows for a second the shell, then it closes... can i be related to the splashscreen?

Errata Corrige : It was my fault... with the resolution of an Icon when calling from a differen app domain.... +1 kudos Geert!

Just started with Orchestra/Mahapps, my shell window shows up much larger than my main view. The shell is about 1400x1000 pixels, with the view about 820x800. How do I get the shell to be smaller so it just fits the view? Do I need to implement my own custom shell?

Geert van Horrik

@GeertvanHorrik

You shouldn't set any size on the main view, it should fill up the shell for you. Don't you want the app to be runnable in full screen / maximized?

As you can see here, there is a ShellDimensionsHelper that respects the dimensions from the main view

https://github.com/WildGums/Orchestra/blob/develop/src/Orchestra.Shell.MahApps/Views/ShellWindow.xaml.cs#L81

leads to this code:

https://github.com/WildGums/Orchestra/blob/develop/src/Orchestra.Shell.Shared/Helpers/ShellDimensionsHelper.cs#L7

so you can use Max / Min properties and they will be used by the shell as well

@redrabbit007

Is there a way to set the default size of the shell/main window? I see how the min/max width/height get set from the MainView. Is there a way to set the defaults?

Geert van Horrik

@GeertvanHorrik

if you have your own shell service, you can simply override InitializeBeforeShowingShellAsync and customize anything you need

redrabbit007

@redrabbit007

Do you mean override InitializeBeforeShowingShellAsync in my ApplicationInitializationService?

Geert van Horrik

@GeertvanHorrik

correct

@venomAA

wasnt there an example project for orchestra? I cant find it in the main site or the github site

venom_aa

@venomAA

nvm...found it

advapiIT

@advapiIT

Hello! Is there a way I can easily show in the splash screen the application's icon?

Geert van Horrik

@GeertvanHorrik

Yes, there should be. It's actually not the icon, but CompanyLogoForSplashScreenUri should do the trick

@advapiIT

Excuse me , in the case I've referenced the Orchestra.Shell.Ribbon.Fluent for orchestra and not copied all the files from the solution, it's possible to set up the CompanyLogoForSplashScreenUri as well?

Geert van Horrik

@GeertvanHorrik

Sure, if your company supports us on Open Collective, I am happy to help out there

Hi Geert, I've tried to use PleseWaitService, the first time I saw it was with Catel, but now doesn't work, so I searched and I found it works with Orchestra, but it doen't wotk, can you give an example or a documentation page to help me?
Thanks for all your effort with Catel project <3

Geert van Horrik

@GeertvanHorrik

It works, but it has been replaced with a different one. For example, now it uses the progress bar at the bottom of the Orchestra shell (the fluent ribbon demo shows this nicely)

@TenderTicante

sorry for bother, I saw that example but I'm looking for a lock wait screen that appears when the information is loading in background there's an example code that I tried but I doesn't work.

    public void LoadedAsync()
    {
        try
        {
            var serviceLocator = ServiceLocator.Default;
            serviceLocator.RegisterType<IPleaseWaitService,Catel.Services.PleaseWaitService>();
            _pleaseWaitService.Show(() => Thread.Sleep(9000), MensajesEspera.Espere);
            InicializaVistaModelo();
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            throw ex;
        }
    }

Geert van Horrik

@GeertvanHorrik

We removed that splash screen since the implementation was too complicated. You could however move that old code into your own project as implementation of the please wait service

hi there, i am trying to do a POC using c# .net 4.6.2 using the Orchestra.Shell.Ribbon.Fluent and it's dependencies the app crash just after the splash screen

Geert van Horrik

@GeertvanHorrik

what's the callstack?

did you check the example app?

kevinlall

@kevinlall

yeah

i took the code from there

Geert van Horrik

@GeertvanHorrik

but does the example itself run?

kevinlall

@kevinlall

only i did not do is use <Project Sdk="MSBuild.Sdk.Extras">

i just created a normal WPF project

Geert van Horrik

@GeertvanHorrik

ok, that shouldn't matter much, as long as you use the right dependencies. But what is the callstack / first chance exception?

kevinlall

@kevinlall

Geert van Horrik

@GeertvanHorrik

kevinlall

@kevinlall

pls

Geert van Horrik

@GeertvanHorrik

just hit f5, it's a first-chance exception

kevinlall

@kevinlall

Geert van Horrik

@GeertvanHorrik

ok, please upload the repro, but it should just work

or paste the log here

kevinlall

@kevinlall

kevinlall

@kevinlall

how can i see that

Geert van Horrik

@GeertvanHorrik

output window

so you are using ModuleInitializer, but not fody

if you don't want to use fody, you should move
