    Cannot get Progress Bar to Update while running tasks in WPF

    I did, but I must have changed it in the program after pasting it once it threw an error and then forgot to change it here. Anyways, I have somewhat figured out what is going wrong. I have a third moving part involved. I have a GeneratePlayers Page, the ViewModel and then the...

    Cannot get Progress Bar to Update while running tasks in WPF

    Created a new ViewModel and have it exactly as you do, bound using <Window.DataContext>. Previously had it set in the code behind which I didn't show in my example, sorry for the confusion. Still not working. I did get the Progress Bar Window to be responsive by Calling the Button Click Event...

    Cannot get Progress Bar to Update while running tasks in WPF

    Its no problem, I am always wanting to learn everything I can, so I will keep this for use in a Winforms or non-WPF environment... I'm still confused as to why the UI thread is unresponsive even as I have a separate Task running for it...

    Cannot get Progress Bar to Update while running tasks in WPF

    Well, its still not working. Both UI and the new ProgressBar Window are unresponsive. The ProgressBar task is running, the PlayerCount and PercentDone is updating properly, its just not displaying the updated values on the ProgressBar. Here is the code in the GeneratePlayers Class---moving...

    Cannot get Progress Bar to Update while running tasks in WPF

    This was designed to be more of a quick and dirty type project to give the testers something to work with so they could test out the results from the player generation process and give me feedback, so I suppose I am trying to reverse engineer it to work in a way that I shouldn't be...I use MVVM...

    Cannot get Progress Bar to Update while running tasks in WPF

    Awesome! Thanks so much... Now my question is going to be how do I get the value out of the secondary thread, because I need the value from there to know what percent the progress bar should display... Here is the Secondary thread where I need to take the value of x and NumPlayers to calculate...

    Cannot get Progress Bar to Update while running tasks in WPF

    Yes, I realize that, I actually created a separate window for the Progress Bar, but the issue occurs because I'm still getting the result from inside the secondary thread which blocks it from being able to use it... It's the first foray into multithreading so I know I am asking a lot of dumb...

    Cannot get Progress Bar to Update while running tasks in WPF

    OK gotcha...using a background worker per your example... One last issue I am having is that I need to get the current value of "x" in the player generation sub to be able to know the value that should be updated, so I would need to call the worker from inside the secondary thread...however...

    Cannot get Progress Bar to Update while running tasks in WPF

    Isn't Creating another task for the ProgressBar giving it its own thread? Or is it simply adding another task to the same thread? Is it possible to do this via a Task instead of a background worker? Is it not possible to simply do this via a UI Binding to a INotififyPropertyChanged Property...

    Not sure what I am doing wrong, but I can't get it to work. I am doing a CPU intensive task where I am creating a large number of players for a football game I am making, and I am using the Task.Factory.StartNew method to run it on. I then create a separate task for the Progress updater but I...

    Cannot Get Scrollbars on DataGrid to actually work...

    The vertical and horizontal scrollbars are showing on my DataGrid, but they don't actually do anything when you click on them. They appear grayed out and do nothing. I have seen some code where I have to encapsulate the DataGrid in a Scrollbar viewer and/or ScrollBar but as of right now I...

    WPF OpenFileDialog runs twice?

    You are exactly right... I went and clicked on view all references and it showed two. I clicked on the second one and it pulled up the XAML I had written where I had Click = "OpenDB_Click" in addition to having a handler written. Once I removed this, it worked as it should, only opening...

    Question Is it possible to return all items in a List/Queue without Iterating over them?

    Bad choice of words, but you got what I meant. Actually found this right before you posted by I like the ({0}) you had better...I always forget about that and just concatenate strings with the & symbols... Had to stick VALUES directly after Tablename or else it thought they were columns, but it...

    Question Is it possible to return all items in a List/Queue without Iterating over them?

    Ok, I have a very specific situation that this would be useful for. I have a DataTable with a large number of columns(200+) that I am doing a bulk insert for in SQLite, since it does not support Update Table like SQL Server does. I want to know if there is a way after I iterate over all the...
