I just want to inform everybody what I’m doing currently.
Basically I’m working on Lilium, currently in the Lilium_NG branch (see GitHub), it doesn’t take soo long time anymore, hopefully, that I can merge it to the master and release a new version

Anyway, there are some changes in Lilium, it is nearly completely new,
- I have added a new VM base if the VMs are for Window objects, WindowViewModel
- ObservableObject stay as is
- A behavior is added for an easier closing of windows
- ObservableObject , DelegateCommand, MessagePool and EventPool stay as is.
- Some services for a ServiceLocator are added, the interfaces, the implementations and the test implementations
- A test data context is added for the possibility to record actions which will be called by the test services.
- A EventBinding still is missing, currently the Behavior/Triggers from the Blend SDK can be used.

I will describe each functionality in detail as soon the release it there

At the same time I will add some small changed to Tulipa too, Tulipa will get Drag&Drop features and some improvements in the EnhancdListView and TreeListView.

I have created a dialog where items can be shifted between two tree views, then I have get a crash as soon the last selected item from the EnhancedTreeView was removed.

This now is fixed in Tulipa 4.0.11.0. this version will not crash anymore because of this.

After changing this I have thrown two controls, first the BindableRadioButton, because this control is not needed anymore with [...]]]> After discussion with Florian S. he has some good ideas for improving the ImageButton, thanks for that
The ImageButton how has some more properties: DisabledBitmapSource, HorizontalImageAlignment, VerticalImageAlignment and ImageStretch.
Please see the documentation for details.

After changing this I have thrown two controls, first the BindableRadioButton, because this control is not needed anymore with the .Net framework 4.0 and the BindableMenuItem.

Everything can be found in the Tulipa version 4.0.10.0.

In WPF it is possible to create a button like this

But this have two problems. First, this have to be done on [...]]]> The developing was very easy but usefully: An image inside a button with an disabeling possibility.

In WPF it is possible to create a button like this

<Buton>
    <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
        <Image Height="16" Width="16" Margin="0,0,2,0" Source="..\Resources\Okay.png" />
        <TextBlock Text="Okay" VerticalAlignment="Center" />
    </StackPanel>
</Buton>

But this have two problems.
First, this have to be done on every button which should take an image, or for every different button an style has to create.
The second problem is much problematic, what about the disabeling? An Image does not gray out automatically after set IsEnabled to false.

Both now is possible with my new ImageButton.
To have the same button like I show now, simply write

<Tulipa:ImageButton ImageSource="..\Resources\Okay.png" Content="Okay" />

The Image automatically gray out after set IsEnabled to false, and the button has some properties for arrange and modify the image, just take a look into the documentation.

The control is added in Tulipa version 4.0.7.0.
