I am creating a Windows application (WPF) and C#. In my view, I have to add few layouts like browsing a folder, displaying the files in the folder in a list view...etc
My requirement is : The panels mentioned above should be collapsible panels, I guess, we dont have option of collapsible panel in wpf.
I have to create a custom control for this? If so, Please suggest me how to do this?
The Expander control may be what you are looking for. From MSDN:
Expander Class
Represents the control that displays a header that has a collapsible window that displays content.
May like this?
<Grid>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="auto"/>
<RowDefinition Height="2*"/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Border Background="Red" Height="12" VerticalAlignment="Top" MouseEnter="StackPanel_MouseEnter" MouseLeave="StackPanel_MouseLeave"></Border>
</Grid>
C# code behind
private void StackPanel_MouseEnter(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
Border sp = sender as Border;
DoubleAnimation db = new DoubleAnimation();
//db.From = 12;
db.To = 150;
db.Duration = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(0.5);
db.AutoReverse = false;
db.RepeatBehavior = new RepeatBehavior(1);
sp.BeginAnimation(StackPanel.HeightProperty, db);
}
private void StackPanel_MouseLeave(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
Border sp = sender as Border;
DoubleAnimation db = new DoubleAnimation();
//db.From = 12;
db.To = 12;
db.Duration = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(0.5);
db.AutoReverse = false;
db.RepeatBehavior = new RepeatBehavior(1);
sp.BeginAnimation(StackPanel.HeightProperty, db);
}
}
You can use any element control like grid, stack, dock, border ...
