Installation and Usage Instructions

Please note: The Extended WPF Toolkit is dependent on .NET Framework 4.0. You must install .NET Framework 4.0 in order to use any features in the Toolkit.

Instructions for using the Extended WPF Toolkit binaries:

Install .NET Framework 4.0.
Download the ExtendedWPFToolkit_Binaries
Unblock the ZIP file.
1. Right-click ExtendedWPFToolkit_Binaries.zip -> Properties -> Unblock
Unzip the ExtendedWPFToolkit_Binaries.zip
Reference the binaries in your project:
1. Reference WPFToolkit.Extended.dll in your project (Xceed.Wpf.DataGrid.dll for the datagrid control)
2. Add a using statement ("using Xceed.Wpf.Toolkit;" for most of the controls, "using Xceed.Wpf.DataGrid;" for the datagrid control) to the top of .cs files
3. Add a new xmlns (xmlns:xctk="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/toolkit" for most of the controls, xmlns:xcdg="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/datagrid" for the datagrid control) to the top of XAML files
4. Remember to use the namespace prefix (in the above example, <xctk: ...> or <xcdg: ...>) in the body of your XAML

Installation using NuGet

Open your Visual Studio.
Open your solution/project.

1. Add a using statement ("using Xceed.Wpf.Toolkit;" for most of the controls, "using Xceed.Wpf.DataGrid;" for the datagrid control) to the top of .cs files
2. Add a new xmlns (xmlns:xctk="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/toolkit" for most of the controls, xmlns:xcdg="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/datagrid" for the datagrid control) to the top of XAML files

missing similar passwordbox :(
Comments: ** Comment from web user: mrichman **

Definitely need a password box

We have a DataGrid (the one that comes with .NET) that contains a variety of template columns. What we're finding is that clicking on a cell in a different row from the currently selected row exhibits inconsistent behavior with respect to the selected row indicator. For example, if the cell contains a TextBox, the selected row indicator follows. However, if the cell contains a DoubleUpDown (from the "Extended WPF Toolkit"), the selected row indicator does not follow. I'd really like to have the selected row indicator follow the selection! Any idea why this is happening and how I can fix it?

Thanks!
Brad.
