WPF <Border> seems unrecognized and causes errors [duplicate]



This question already has an answer here:



I am new in C# but was a programmer many years ago. I have "played" and searched a lot to understand what's wrong here:


<Window x:Class="WpfApp1.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:WpfApp1"
mc:Ignorable="d"
Title="MainWindow" Height="450" Width="800" Margin="0">
<Grid>
<Border> <-- any time this is here
<Grid.Resources> <-- this gets XLS0415 + XDG0012
...
</Grid.Resources>
<Grid.RowDefinitions> <-- this gets XLS0415 + XDG0012
...
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Border> <-- any time this is here
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <-- this gets XLS0415 + XDG0012
...
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions> <-- this gets XLS0415 + XDG0012
...
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
</Border>
</Grid>
</Border>
</Grid>
</Window>



Where:

XLS0415 = The attachable property 'Resources' was not found in type 'Grid'.

XDG0012 = The member "Resources" is not recognized or is not accessible.


and same for RowDefinitions and ColumnDefinitions.


XLS0415 = The attachable property 'Resources' was not found in type 'Grid'.


XDG0012 = The member "Resources" is not recognized or is not accessible.


RowDefinitions


ColumnDefinitions



It seems only InteliSense recognizes <Border>, while the XAML interpreter (or whatever it's called?) DOES NOT.


I've tried moving / modifying the <Border> statements in any way I could think of, cut&pasted 3 working examples - always with the same (or similar) problems


<Border>


<Border>



This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question.





While it does not answer my question directly, it DOES show how to do what I wanted, as I now understand this is not an issue about <Border>, but basic knowledge about <Grid>s . That's why my searches didn't come across it, though I DID find at least 3 places showing <Border> right AFTER `<Grid> opening statement, not BEFORE. If this is a reason to damage my reputation, I hope I become more worthy someday :) Thanks and sorry.

<Border>


<Grid>


<Border>





@Itay1, It is not specific to Border or Grid, it is XAML rule of property tag syntax: elementTypeName.propertyName. see the link to MS docs which I posted under the answer

<Grid.Resources> and <Grid.RowDefinitions> tags state that Resources and RowDefintions are being added to Grid. Therefore <Grid.Resources> and <Grid.RowDefinitions> properties can be nested only inside <Grid> tag. After you defined those properties, define nested children element[s] like <Border>


<Grid.Resources>


<Grid.RowDefinitions>


<Grid.Resources>


<Grid.RowDefinitions>


<Grid>


<Border>


<Window x:Class="WpfApp1.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:WpfApp1"
mc:Ignorable="d"
Title="MainWindow" Height="450" Width="800" Margin="0">
<Grid>
<Grid.Resources>
...
</Grid.Resources>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
...
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Border>
<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
...
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
...
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Border>

</Border>
</Grid>
</Border>
</Grid>
</Window>





Wow, It works! Thanks for the solution & explanantion! <br> I ran across lots of examples placing <Border> immediately INSIDE <Grid>, and none immediately OUTSIDE of it. I wonder how all of them did not fail, as they did when I merely cut&pasted them?!

@Itay1, I recomment to take a look at MS docs here: XAML syntax in detail. if my answer helped, please mark it as accepted

Thanks @ASh. I tried reading it and remembered why I quit programming and became a product designer 25 years ago, and 8 years later became a psychotherapist. I am now an <Amateur reputation="2"/> and you are helping me understand that is where I want to stay. :))

Firebase Auth - with Email and Password - Check user already registered

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP Firebase Auth - with Email and Password - Check user already registered I want to check when a user attempts to signup with createUserWithEmailAndPassword() in Firebase user Authentication method, this user is already registered with my app. createUserWithEmailAndPassword() 8 Answers 8 To detect whether a user with that email address already exists, you can detect when the call to createUserWithEmailAndPassword () fails with auth/email-already-in-use . I see that @Srinivasan just posted an answer for this. createUserWithEmailAndPassword () auth/email-already-in-use Alternatively, you can detect that an email address is already used by calling fetchSignInMethodsForEmail() (previous called fetchProvidersForEmail() ). fetchSignInMethodsForEmail() fetchProvidersForEmail() When the user trying to create an user with same email address, the task response will be "Response: The email address is already in use by another account." mFirebas

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP Dynamically update html content plain JS So I have a script bound in my index.html, which literally has to fetch an array of jsons from an api, then dynamically update my page when get response. But as a result I'm getting an as the only update of my page. here is my script fetch(url) .then((resp) => resp.json()) .then((resp) => resp.results.forEach(item => fetch(item.url) .then((response)=> response.json()) .then((response) => pokeArr.push(response)) .catch(console.log) ) ).catch(console.log) const filler = () => if(!pokeArr) return 0 pokeArr.map((i,j)=> return `<tr>$i.name</tr>` ) const pokeindex = () => document.getElementById('a').appendChild(document.createElement(filler())) pokeindex() When I'm consoling it, I can see in the console all the responses I get, so I'm at least doing the fetching part right. What's parberakan ? What's pokeArr ? – T.J. Crowder Aug 8 at 12

How to determine optimal route across keyboard

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP How to determine optimal route across keyboard I'm trying to automate the typing process in a video game. Players are given an on-screen QWERTY keyboard layout that they can navigate with the control stick (up, down, left, right) in order to select a letter to type. I was wondering if there was a module for Python (or some other resource I could explore) that would help my program find a path across the keyboard as it types each letter in a given message. In other words, if the first letter typed was "A" and the next letter was "B", the module would know that the program should move 1 space down on the keyboard and 4 spaces to the right. Currently, I have the program resetting to the "G" key after each letter is typed (allowing me to use fixed-directions as the program parses each character in the desired message). As you can imagine, this is quite inefficient and defeats the purpose of automating the typing in the fir
