XAML Power Toys 4.0 Released – Code Name MVVM

February 10, 2009

Over the last few months I’ve received many emails requesting features and I’ve got a few of my own that I’ve added to XAML Power Toys!

New Features In v4.0

Added Two New Videos that cover these new features.  Please watch them.

I’ve updated the Control Defaults section of the XAML Power Toys Home Page.  Please read this section as it explains some of the below new features.

  • Extract properties to a Style allows selecting a control, choosing desired properties and have those selected properties extracted to a newly created style
  • Create ViewModel Class from a VB.NET or C# code window.  Easily create a ViewModel stub that includes commands and exposed data class.
  • Group into GroupBox
  • Option to generate x:Name for controls
  • Option to add ForeReRead converter to TextBox bindings (both VB.NET & C# converters included in source and binary downloads.  Converter is also included in the OceanFramework.WPF namespace.)
  • Option to add TargetNullValue to TextBox.Text bindings when Source property is Nullable
  • Corrected secondary application domain load issue reported by DevExpress.  This fix also solves another edge case secondary application domain load issue.

Just a grain of sand on the worlds beaches.
