Lightswitch themes

I am using Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 with C# and VB. I have a lightswitch desktop application I have just completed. I have purchased Third party themes for my application. When I try them they don't work. The only themes that work are the ones that came
with lightswitch, the cosmopolitan and standard themes. It's really frustrating. Everything I have found on the net from uninstalling them and re-installling them have failed. The two theme packs I have with not support even from the manufacturers are: Picasso
themes by delordson and the Xpert360Lightning Office theme pack. This is the error I receive:
System.Windows.Markup.XamlParseException occurred
Message=Cannot find a Resource with the Name/Key ScreenLoadingBackgroundBrush [Line: 25 Position: 36]
LineNumber=25
LinePosition=36
StackTrace:

InnerException:

Any help will be appreciated.

Why does my app Documents have my photos in it?all of a sudden? I did not put them there! I'd like to delete them out of documents, but it will not let me, the app I mean? How am I delete the photos out of it?

HHi, I'm new here, but just this morning, I opened the app documents to load some information for study purposes. I saw a folder called photo library. Opened and saw all my photos in it. I did not place them in it. The app functions do not permit me to delete them. I have struggled with this all morning, and find myself here. I also ask a few friends who upon checking found a similar thing on their. IPads also. What we want to know is.........Hiw can we delete the photos out of the app Documents?
WHen we we got to lookin into it, we have found that we probably got this auto done with the new sharing feature and we will have to turn off photo share, which it says will delete all photos from iPad. Is this my only option?

Well you could have trashed your Silverlight install in some way.
That's what it looks like, but I'm not sure how, or how to fix it. I spent ages trying to get all the SL stuff installed, and had a lot of problems, mainly because of the issue with VS2010 SP1.
Does your app rely on a certificate though?
I wonder whether it's an issue with that.
It does, although I'm not sure why that would cause this problem.
Also, I get the same problem when running in VS, and if it were a certificate problem, I wouldn't expect that, as (I think) certificates aren't used when running in VS. Could be wrong on that, so if you know better, please correct me.
You realise, by the way, that Google have sety npapi disabled by default this month?
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/30387.silverlight-trouble-shooting-installs.aspx#Chrome
Ho hum, wonderful eh? Don't know what mine showed before, but I've got SL working in Chrome now, so it's academic (until September of course)
Hope that helps.
Sadly, I don't think it does. I still get this error, whether running in VS, or running the production app. I really need to work out how to fix my SL install without having to uninstall and reinstall all of it yet again. I think that's the crux of the problem.
Thanks very much for the reply. Any further help would be greatly appreciated.

LightSwitch is still looking for an entity property that no longer exists in any project file. How and why?

I recently performed an across-the-board rename in my LightSwitch application and development database. (No worries, always backups.) I know that directly editing the .lsml files (Client.lsml, Common.lsml, Server.lsml) isn't supported - you must be careful.
That said I've been able to use find and replace within these files with great success for simple refactoring ... until now.
I renamed "WcsNum" on my Job entity to "JobNum".
I have a data grid whose entities include a relationship to "Job" and display a couple of Job's properties, all very typical. Now whenever I open the screen with the data grid and it's populated with one or more entities that have a reference to a
job, I receive this:
The property 'WcsNum' does not exist on type 'LightSwitchApplication.Implementation.Job'. Make sure to only use property names that are defined by the type.
The spooky thing is, the text WcsNum no longer exists anywhere in my entire project. I've used Agent Ransack to search my entire project directory including the main LightSwitch project, my WCF RIA Services project, and any related files.
I've even exported my database schema (and data) to scripts and searched those for it -- nothing.
I've tried "Clean Solution", as well as manually deleting every obj, bin, and GeneratedArtifacts directory in both projects. There are no remaining occurrences of this reference, I don't know where it's getting it from.
I also tried deleting the settings from %UserProfile%\Documents\Microsoft\LightSwitch\Settings, which I regularly clear anyway to discard manual column sizes.
As I'm typing this I'm searching the contents of every file on my entire computer for "WcsNum", in case there's some other local cache that needs cleared. Feasible with a solid state drive.
If I can't find it this way, it must be stored differently, or within a binary format that Agent Ransack doesn't recognize as ANSI/Unicode.

For the first question, in Solution Explorer, you'll find a folder under the LightSwitch project called "Data Sources". But here's the bit you might be missing. You have to switch to back to
Logical View, if for some reason you've switched to File View. You won't see the data sources if you're in
File View. And seeing as you've got Luminous Tools installed, if you have made the toolbar visible, then you have a button to do it all for you "Show Data Sources". Then you simply right-click the data source that is your RIA
Service, then select Update Data Source. I hope that makes it a bit clearer for you?
As for not seeing a Rebuild Project command, you might be looking in the actual LightSwitch menu. What I've done is only put commands in there that directly relate to LightSwitch. Any others will appear in one of two groups in the context menu underneath
the LightSwitch menu. Rebuild Solution, Rebuild Project, & Cancel Build, should all be together. If you still can't find it, let me know. Any images of what you're seeing on the screen would be very helpful for me to know what to advise you.

Adding multiple records in a LightSwitch application

I have been requested to add a new feature to my current LightSwitch application that is used to manage our employee training programme. The problem revolves around the ability to create training needs for a multiple set of employees, instead of having
to create each training need individually. The obvious benefit being reduced input for the team leaders, who have to create them for their respective teams.
The data schema looks like this:
I have tried to implement a Many to Many Relationship (Andy Kung) but it doesn't appear to meet the requirements.
The idea is to add some Local Properties for the team leader to Select the Course, and other required fields to capture the details of the training need. Then to provide two data grids / lists, one which shows all employees reporting to the team
leader the other showing which employees have been selected for the training need. I'm thinking that this should be a list of employees that once the record is saved I'd execute some code to create new training needs for each of the selected employees.
Am I going about this in the correct way for a LightSwitch application? Any ideas would be appreciated.

It may be a problem of too many relationships. If it's a case where a Class can have multiple Employees, and an Employee can have multiple Classes, the easiest solution is to make a third table linking the two and use that table to manipulate the info.
Let's say the Class table has the following fields:
ID
ClassName
ClassLocation
ClassTime
ClassInstructor
and our Employee table has:
ID
EmployeeName
EmployeeDepartment
and whatever other fields you track on both, it doesn't really matter. These two tables should NOT have a relationship defined because many-to-many relationships aren't supported. (well, not directly, anyway.)
To create the Link table that solves the problem, simply create a new table in Lightswitch, but don't put any fields in it. (You can do that later, but working with the simplest version will show you how easy this is.) Let's call it ClassStudentLink.
ClassStudentLink only has one field, the auto-created Id field. Now, create a 1-to-many relationship to the Class table (which adds a collection of ClassStudentLinks to the Class table) and then another 1-to-many relationship to the Employee table (which
adds a collection of ClassStudentLinks to that one, too.)
Now you can create a Common Screen Set on this new link table. When you go to the Add New ClassStudentLink screen, you get two modal pickers, once for Class, and one for Employee. Pick one of each, and save, and you just enrolled an Employee in your
Class.
From the Class table's View Class screens you can now add the child Link items which point to one Student each (i.e., click Add ClassStudentLinks on the data model on the left and drag it into a group on the screen. Do the same with the ClassStudentLink
table to add the linked Employee (because there will only be one for each link) and remove all the Link table fields from the screen but the Employee Name from the child (well, grandchild) record, because that's the only one you're interested in anyway.
You can do the exact same thing for the View Employee screen now, seeing which classes each selected Employee is enrolled in by adding the Link table there, too.
To show a Class roster, start with the Link table, change its Query filter to a selected Class, then display the EmployeeNames from the linked record. To show a Class Transcript for an Employee, start with the Link table again, but set its Query
filter to a selected Employee.
What would really be nice is if you could set the Summary property of the Link table on the fly to point to a field in either of the related child tables, but I don't think it's possible. Perhaps with pre-defined Queries in the data model, one going
each way, but I think you're limited to fields in the primary table only, not a child table.

Send a message from a list of emails in lightswitch 2013.4 HTML screen using ajax

Hi There,
any idea how to make a button to send a message from a list of emails in lightswitch 2013.4 HTML.
my idea is to send message to all emails in the details picker (or the drop down menu or a choice list) tat is filled by SQL query (as a data source in lightswitch)
i have read many articles, most of them were written in PHP or VB !
for example:
http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/HTML/Sending-email-with-AJAX-building-a-small-application/1/
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22442074/how-to-send-email-to-a-list-of-addresses-from-lightswitch

as far as i know, the HTML screens in lightswitch 2013 can be encoded with ajax only, not vb or C# any more!
my project contains only HTML screens, no desktop screens. i know that i can do the VB programming in the tables actions, but i am looking to have this code in the Browse screen to give me more flexibility depending on my decision to
send or not..
help please :)

Hello Hasan,
I do this using a generic handler(e.g. sendmail.ashx). In the ashx file i use this code:
Imports System.Net.Mail
Imports System.Web
Imports System.Web.Services
Sub ProcessRequest(ByVal context As HttpContext) Implements IHttpHandler.ProcessRequest
Dim str As String = "there was no error "
Dim Recipient As String = Convert.ToString(context.Request.Params("pRecipient"))
Dim strsub As String = Convert.ToString(context.Request.Params("pSubject"))
Dim strmsg As String = Convert.ToString(context.Request.Params("pMessage"))
Dim msg As New MailMessage
Try
' Your mail address and display name.
' This what will appear on the From field.
' If you used another credentials to access
' the SMTP server, the mail message would be
' sent from the mail specified in the From
' field on behalf of the real sender.
msg.From = New MailAddress("[email protected]", "Displayname")
' To addresses
msg.To.Add("[email protected]")
'msg.To.Add(New MailAddress("[email protected]", "Friend B"))
' You can specify CC and BCC addresses also
' Set to high priority
msg.Priority = MailPriority.High
msg.Subject = strsub
' You can specify a plain text or HTML contents
msg.IsBodyHtml = True
msg.Body = strmsg
'msg.Body = _
' "Hello everybody,<br /><br />" & _
' "I found an interesting site called <a href=""http:'JustLikeAMagic.WordPress.com"">" & _
' "Just Like a Magic</a>. Be sure to visit it soon."
' In order for the mail client to interpret message
' body correctly, we mark the body as HTML
' because we set the body to HTML contents.
' Attaching some data
' msg.Attachments.Add(New Attachment("D:\Site.lnk"))
' Connecting to the server and configuring it
Dim client As New SmtpClient()
client.Host = "mail.gmx.com"
client.Port = 25
client.EnableSsl = True
' The server requires user's credentials
' not the default credentials
client.UseDefaultCredentials = False
' Provide your credentials
client.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential("yourcredentias", "f2f081639ad")
client.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network
' Use SendAsync to send the message asynchronously
client.Send(msg)
Catch ex As Exception
str = ex.Message
Finally
msg.Dispose()
End Try
context.Response.ContentType = "text/plain"
context.Response.Write(str)
End Sub
When you create the ASHX then replace the ProcessRequest with the above function.
In LS HTML Screen create the function for pressing a button an appen the following text:
$.ajax({
type: 'post',
data: {
pRecipient: Screen.yourdata,
pSubject: Screen.yourdata,
pMessage: Screen.yourdata,
url: '../sendmail.ashx',
success: function success(result) {
alert(result);
This is a way you can do that. In VB and out of your browse Screen.
Hope this helps

Lightswitch HTML Client - Detail picker for each related List Item

I have a doubt in Lightswitch Html Client application.
Scenario:
Suppose i have two tables "Property" and "PropertyVaues".
A Property can have many PropertyValues is the relationship between them.
I want to show the data on screen like below:
Property List:
XYZ            [___10____(+)]
MNO          [___abc____(+)]
PQR           [___30.5___(+)]
Xyz is the list item
assume [___10____(+)] is the detail picker of
PropertyValues which allow to select one value related to
XYZ Property item, and same for other list items.
Only Related "PropertyValues" for each list item must be available in the detail picker.
Please help me out if any one has the solution to solve it.
Or you can give me any other way to accomplish the above scenario.
Thanks

Hello Josh,
I am implementing it on AddEdit screen.
                  (1)
(2)
Screen description:
[Note: Some Images are in my next post]
1. Image(1) shows the list of properties (GSM, Mill Name, CMS). These Properties have its respective property values in drop down.
2. When i select any value from the dropdown list (eg. 10 from GSM). the value is assigned to all other drop down.
[shown in image(3) next post]
(4) Again when suppose i select value for "Mill Name" Property as "Abc", it is assigned to all other drop down.
[shown in image(4) next post]
I want that a property value must be assigned to its respective Property only.
Please help me on this. Or suggest me another way out to accomplish such scenario.

LIGHTSWITCH HTML ENTITY SOFT DELETION

Hello all,
I am working on LightSwitch HTML client application. I have an issue regarding entity soft deletion.
For your kind information, I have also referred Beth Messi's link:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/bethmassi/archive/2011/11/18/using-the-save-and-query-pipeline-to-archive-deleted-records.aspx
My Scenario:
I have an Accounts table which is related to other tables.
In Accounts edit screen, I have a delete button. On deleting account from edit screen Account should be marked as deleted in database(i.e. soft delete) if it has no reference in any other table, otherwise show client side an error message
myapp.EditAccount.DeleteAccount_Tap_execute = function (screen) {
// Write code here.
screen.Account.deleteEntity();
myapp.applyChanges().then(function success() {
// Delete successful message.
}, function error(e) {
// Delete failure message.
According to Beth Messi's example: On deletion, the entity will discard changes and mark the entity as soft deleted.
So, If data is discarded then I do not get the server side exception " Could not delete. entity is in use." and my code inside function error() could not execute.
Any different way to accomplish this is also appreciated.
Thanks,
Ravi Patel

HI Ravi,
As Beth’s blog said, it marks records for deletion without actually deleting them from the database. It discards the changes, this reverts the deletion.
As I know, myapp.applyChanges(), calling apply will save all the changes of the current changeset. If only one changeset exists, it will save them to the database. If the current changeset is a nested scope, it will commit the changes to
the parent changeset. I don’t think you can use myapp.applyChanges()
method in this scenario.

Angie

Error When Publishing LightSwitch Application

Hi Everybody
I am trying to publish a simple lightswitch application (3-tier desktop) into a Webserver. The deployment start as expected but after few minutes later got the below error:

No, I'm not advising to uninstall anything, just to make sure that your application
targets matches the server's version. I'm not sure if the SP level affects the compatibility level. Maybe Glenn knows?
I'm not a web developer, & I just had a quick look at the 2012 publish wizard. I can't find any setting to charge the targeted version. I must have been thinking about SSRS reports (there's an option to select the version that the reports are targeting).
Arvixe should really have SP1 applied to their servers (maybe you can ask them to do so if they don't?).
Other than that it looks like I can't help you, sorry.

Lightswitch-I can't see tables created bya different restricted Oracle user

I am new to Lightrswitch and connecting to Oracle through VS - we usually have a middle tier to do this. We are looking at some rapid CRUD application development so I am looking into lightswitch.
However I have an issue:
I have two oracle users. One has full access to the tables and the other has restricted access. When attaching my Lightswitch application to the database if I use the one with full access it works a treat. However if I use the DB user that has restricted access I can not see any of the tables (even though I can see them fine logged in under the same restricted user in toad ?). Upon connection I have gone into the filters tab and selected the unrestricted schema under the "Displayed Schemas" option to no avail.
My version of Oracle is 9.2.0.7
I also have Oralce OLEDB provider - ODAC92070.exe
I have oracle developer tools ODTwithODAC1020221
Any help would be much appreciated...

951672 wrote:
I have a similar problem with using ODAC 11.2 R4 (11.2.0.3).
As a matter of policy, objects are never owned by general users. So when I connect as my user in Lightswitch, no objects are displayed.
However, if I add a connection to the server explorer, alter the filter to include the owner of the objects, they display in the server explorer.
If I follow the EXACT same sequence to add the external connection in the Lightswitch dialog, the filter is seemingly ignored and as I don't own any objects, none are shown. Additionally, if I "< Back" to the connection dialog, the filter has been reset to just my objects.
Seems like the filter mechanism in the Lightswitch dialog is being ignored.
Any other reports of this behavior, any workarounds or any idea when this problem will be fixed? It is a showstopper for me.We are aware of the problem and discussed it at length with Microsoft. They have said that they are looking into fixing it in some future release. Unfortunately, the fix did not make it into the Visual Studio 2012 RTM.
If you have a support contract with MS, you could make it known to them that you urgently require a fix and perhaps that could speed things along.
I don't know of a workaround, other than to log in as the schema owner (which is probably a non-starter for you).

Visual Studio 2013 Lightswitch March 2014 update Null Exception in CollectShellCommands

After upgrading my Silverlight client to the March 2014 upgrade, I get a NullReferenceException on the load of every screen with the call stack showing:
at Microsoft.LightSwitch.Runtime.Shell.ViewModels.Implementation.Commands.CommandsViewModel.CollectShellCommands()
I used .net reflector to get as far as watching CollectShellCommands get called but am unable to step into to get exact code line where the error is, however, I believe it is in this part of the code since currentScreen is a null.
IScreenObject currentScreen = (this._currentScreenView != null) ? this._currentScreenView.Screen : null;
using (IEnumerator<IShellCommandGroupProvider> enumerator3 = this.GetCommandProviders().GetEnumerator())
while (enumerator3.MoveNext())
foreach (IShellCommandGroup group2 in enumerator3.get_Current().GetShellCommandGroups(currentScreen))
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(group2.Name) && (group2.Commands != null))
this._shellCommandGroups.Add(group2);
foreach (IShellCommand command4 in group2.Commands)
this._shellCommands.Add(command4);
Any assistance would be appreciated, as I am unable to upgrade because of this (obviously)
thanks in advance!

Hi Dave,
you seem to be the only one who tries to communicate with us which is great:-). I think it doesnt make much sense to ask if we develop any new apps in Lightswitch. You should probaby ask something like "would LS be a tool of your choice for a new project
if LS and mainly SL was actively developed and supported?". And my answer would be YES, YES, YES, definitely YES, because LightSwitch (I mean it's SL client) is by far the most productive tool I've ever used. For HTML development there are other tools
and frameworks, more mature and more flexible and most of them are for free. To be honest, LS HTML client is (compared to the SL one) just a bad joke - doesn't expose computed properties, default values, localization is poor...(just few main reasons) but the
main reason why I actually bought LS was that I wanted to get out of that HTML+JS+CSS+bunchofothertechnologies messy hell. Instead of it LS offered a consistent environment with ONE language of my choice (no matter if VB or C# - both are great
anyway). So I didnt hesitate and put my money and effort into it.
Well, from the current point of view it was the worst decision I've ever made in my professional life.
Best regards
Pavel

Lightswitch debugging (symbols not found)

Hi, my problem is very similar to others I have seen and I have seen the exact same problem in other forums fixed by a clean and rebuild.

Please can someone help me get my breakpoints working?
Thanks,

HI Anya,
Here are a few suggestions that might help:
•Clean and Rebuild - Cleaning and rebuilding your current Project (Right-click > Clean, Right-click Rebuild respective) and see if that makes any difference at all.
•Closing Older IIS Instances - Stop your existing application and ensure that you don't have any additional IIS processes or instances of your local Web Server running.
•Consider Restarting Visual Studio - If these issues are still persisting after the above steps, try restarting Visual Studio (and even your local machine)
•Proper Project Targeting - If you are dealing with multiple Projects, ensure that the Project that you have a breakpoint in is actually running (Right-click your Solution > Set Startup Projects... > Ensure
your current Project is selected)
If the issue still persists after all of them, you might try looking into a few more advanced alternatives.
Please let me know if there is anything that I can do to help.

We don't know what Apple plans on doing to change this (and it may not be just Apple but more likely the publishers, since Apple would, of course, do whatever it could to maximize sales/profits). Right now you can only read Apple books on mobile devices. Sure, buy them from Amazon if you want to read them on the computer. We don't work for Apple so we're pretty impartial on this kind of advice.

Podcast episodes download to wrong folder. How can I move them?

Some of my downloaded podcast episodes seem to be going to incorrect folders.
For example, I subscribe to the Photoshop TV podcast. Some of the downloaded episodes go into the iTunes Music folder>Podcasts>Photoshop TV folder. This seems to me to be the correct path.
But most of the episodes wind up in iTunes Music folder>Unknown Artist>Unknown Album folder, along with many unrelated, non-podcast files.
Now when I search in the Library for<Photoshop> all the Photoshop TV files appear, along with other files referencing Photoshop. But when I search the Library using <Photoshop TV> as the search term, only the Photoshop TV files in the Unknown Album folder show up, but not the ones in the Podcasts>Photoshop TV folder.
And finally when I cllick on Podcasts in the Source pane, once again only the Photoshop TV files in the Unknown Album show up.
I've tried adding those Photoshop TV files back to the library but they remain in the Unknown Album folder.
I haven't tried rebuilding the library yet. I will, but it seems that wont actually move any files. I could also recreating a new library moving my iTunes music folder out of the iTunes folder and then adding them all back. That seems like overkill and I might very well end up with the same problem. (I'm not sure how many of my other Podcast subscriptions have this problem, but not many)
So,
1) how can I get these Photoshop TV files into the Podcasts>Photoshop TV folder, and
2) how can I make this the folder that shows up when I search via the Podcast source, and
3) what causes this problem?
