ButtonSpinner

ButtonSpinner

Derives from Xceed.Wpf.Toolkit.Spinner

The ButtonSpinner control allows you to add button spinners to any element and then respond to the Spin event to manipulate that element. The Spin event lets the developer know which direction the buttons are spinning; SpinDirection.Increase indicates an increment, SpinDirection.Decrease indicates a decrement.

You can wrap any element by placing it inside the content area of the ButtonSpinner control. As an example, lets create our own simple numeric up/down control

XAML

        <xctk:ButtonSpinner Spin="ButtonSpinner_Spin">
            <TextBox Text="0" HorizontalContentAlignment="Right" />
        </xctk:ButtonSpinner>

Code Behind

        private void ButtonSpinner_Spin(object sender, Microsoft.Windows.Controls.SpinEventArgs e)
        {
            ButtonSpinner spinner = (ButtonSpinner)sender;
            TextBox txtBox = (TextBox)spinner.Content;

            int value = String.IsNullOrEmpty(txtBox.Text) ? 0 : Convert.ToInt32(txtBox.Text);
            if (e.Direction == Microsoft.Windows.Controls.SpinDirection.Increase)
                value++;
            else
                value--;
            txtBox.Text = value.ToString();
        }
