Dirkster.NumericUpDownLib 2.1.1

Overview

This library implements more than 10 different numeric up down WPF controls that can be used to edit values:

• with a textbox or
• up/down arrow (repeat) buttons
• up/down cursor keys
• spinning mousewheel up down on mouseover

Implements specific numeric up down control for each .Net data type:

• byte (ByteUpDown control)
• decimal (DecimalUpDown control)
• double (DoubleUpDown control)
• float (FloatUpDown control)
• integer (IntegerUpDown control)
• long (LongUpDown control)
• sbyte (SbyteUpDown control)
• short (ShortUpDown control)
• ushort (UshortUpDown control)
• uint (UintUpDown control)
• ulong (UlongUpDown control)

Percentages can be edit at [0-100] while backend viewmodels handles [0-1] values, see FactorToDoubleConverter and PercentageUpDownDemo in demo clients at project site.

Controls are fully themeable. Project site contains demos for:

• Dark/Light theme and
• Generics theme test clients.

More Features:

• Increments and Decrements can be configured to be 1 or any greater value than 1.
• The width of the control can be configured to be fixed (textbox will scroll inside when text is too large)
• Up/Down button is disabled when min or max limit is already reached
• SelectAll on GotFocus of TextBox
• Spin value up/down on mouseover + mousewheel spin
• IsReadOnly property disables the textbox portion but leaves all other funtions for Increment/Decrement available

There is a demo application that shows the usage of the control (Light/Black themes enabled) and documents the features, such as, the ability to configure a minimum and maximum value that can be used to keep the resulting value within a given bound.

Theming

Load Light or Dark brush resources in you resource dictionary to take advantage of existing definitions.

    <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
        <ResourceDictionary Source="/NumericUpDownLib;component/Themes/DarkBrushs.xaml" />
    </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>

    <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
        <ResourceDictionary Source="/NumericUpDownLib;component/Themes/LightBrushs.xaml" />
    </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>

These definitions do not theme all controls used within this library. You should use a standard theming library, such as:

• MahApps.Metro,
• MLib, or
• MUI

to also theme standard elements, such as, button and textblock etc.
