Is there a way to touch-enable scrolling in a WPF ScrollViewer?
- by Brian Sullivan
I'm trying to create a form in a WPF application that will allow the user to use iPhone-like gestures to scroll through the available fields. So, I've put all my form controls inside a StackPanel inside a ScrollViewer, and the scrollbar shows up as expected when there are too many elements to be shown on the screen.
However, when I try to test this on my touch-enabled device, a panning gesture (placing a finger down on the surface and dragging it upward) does not move the viewable area down as I would expect.
When I simply put a number of elements inside a ListView, the touch gestures work just fine. Is there any way to enable the same kind of behavior in a ScrollViewer?
My window is structured like this:
<Window x:Class="TestTouchScrolling.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525" Loaded="Window_Loaded">
<Grid>
<ScrollViewer Name="viewer" VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto">
<StackPanel Name="panel">
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<Label>Label 1:</Label>
<TextBox Name="TextBox1"></TextBox>
</StackPanel>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<Label>Label 2:</Label>
<TextBox Name="TextBox2"></TextBox>
</StackPanel>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<Label>Label 3:</Label>
<TextBox Name="TextBox3"></TextBox>
</StackPanel>
<!-- Lots more like these -->
</StackPanel>
</ScrollViewer>
</Grid>
