  • Question

  • Dear team,

              i am developing a windows store application  which contains image and text so i use RichTextBlock to  display the image and text. 

    the code i used

    startcheckdisplay:
    
                if(statement.Contains("imgstart"))
                {
                    var paragraph = new Paragraph();
                    a = new InlineUIContainer();
                    int startpoint = statement.IndexOf("imgstart");
                    int endpoint = statement.IndexOf("imgend")+6;
                    string imagefullsource = statement.Substring(startpoint, (endpoint - startpoint));
                    
                    Image webimage = new Image();
                    webimage.Source = new BitmapImage(new Uri(imagefullsource));
                    webimage.Height = webimage.Height;
                    webimage.Width = webimage.Width;
                    string beforeimage = statement.Substring(0, startpoint);
                    webimage.Stretch = Stretch.None;
                    a.Child = webimage;
    
                    
                    paragraph.Inlines.Add(new Run() { Text = beforeimage });
                    paragraph.Inlines.Add(a);
                    statement = statement.Substring((endpoint), statement.Length-endpoint);
                    richtextbox.Blocks.Add(paragraph);
                    goto startcheckdisplay; 
                }

    for each instance it starts new line.

    kindly help me

  • As you can see from the documentation: Child property, Child property only accept a single UIElement, for this reason, you cannot add mutiple images as the child of the InlineUIContainer.

    But you could put the images into a StackPanel by setting its orientation as vertical and let the StackPanel be the child of InlineUIContainer.

  • It's easy, take a look at the code:

                var paragraph = new Paragraph();
    
                var inline = new InlineUIContainer();
                var stackpanel = new StackPanel();
                stackpanel.Orientation = Orientation.Horizontal;
                for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
                {
                    Image webimage = new Image();
                    webimage.Source = new BitmapImage(new Uri("http://i.msdn.microsoft.com/Areas/Centers/Themes/StandardDevCenter/Content/Images/microsoftLogoForHeader.png"));
                    webimage.Height = 18;
                    webimage.Width = 85;
                    stackpanel.Children.Add(webimage);
                }
                
                //webimage.Stretch = Stretch.None;
                inline.Child = stackpanel;
                paragraph.Inlines.Add(new Run() { Text = "beforeimage" });
                paragraph.Inlines.Add(new Run() { Text = "111111111beforeimage" });
                paragraph.Inlines.Add(inline);
    
                //statement = statement.Substring((endpoint), statement.Length - endpoint);
                richtextblock.Blocks.Add(paragraph);

    And here is the screenshot

  • Hi mann,

    I cannot reproduce the issue, here is my code:

                var paragraph = new Paragraph();
                Image webimage = new Image();
                webimage.Source = new BitmapImage(new Uri("http://i.msdn.microsoft.com/Areas/Centers/Themes/StandardDevCenter/Content/Images/microsoftLogoForHeader.png"));
                webimage.Height = 18;
                webimage.Width = 85;
                var a = new InlineUIContainer();
                //webimage.Stretch = Stretch.None;
                a.Child = webimage;
                paragraph.Inlines.Add(new Run() { Text = "beforeimage" });
                paragraph.Inlines.Add(new Run() { Text = "111111111beforeimage" });
                paragraph.Inlines.Add(a);
    
                //statement = statement.Substring((endpoint), statement.Length - endpoint);
                richtextblock.Blocks.Add(paragraph);

    I don't know what is your statement means here, but my code looks fine

  •  Dear james,

    sorry for torturing your

    the above code works super but my requirement is insert the image in the particular position  

    eg:

    What will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following questions?

     + 25 - 42 X    =?

    Thanks again

    (it is dynamic question so the location of the image and number of images will change)  i have found the location of the image but i don't how to insert the image in a particular position

  • Alright, How about insert in the certain place in StackPanel? use StackPanel.Children.Insert(number,UIElement);

                var inline = new InlineUIContainer();
                var stackpanel = new StackPanel();
                stackpanel.Orientation = Orientation.Horizontal;
    
                stackpanel.Children.Add(new TextBlock() { Text = "1111" });
                stackpanel.Children.Add(new TextBlock() { Text = "2222" });
                stackpanel.Children.Add(new TextBlock() { Text = "3333" });
                for (int i = 0; i < 1; i++)
                {
                    Image webimage = new Image();
                    webimage.Source = new BitmapImage(new Uri("http://i.msdn.microsoft.com/Areas/Centers/Themes/StandardDevCenter/Content/Images/microsoftLogoForHeader.png"));
                    webimage.Height = 18;
                    webimage.Width = 85;
    
    
                    stackpanel.Children.Insert(1, webimage);
                }
