Is there a WPF Cheat Sheet available?

Question

I'm looking for a WPF cheat sheet that has the WPF markup extensions for binding, resources, and other common things in WPF. But so far I've had trouble finding it.

Anyone know where I could find one?

I wrote a cheat sheet specifically for data binding and posted it on my blog at:

http://www.nbdtech.com/blog/archive/2009/02/02/wpf-xaml-data-binding-cheat-sheet.aspx

It's very detailed and covers all the properties of the Binding class (because I never forget how to write {StaticResource something} but how to one-way bind to an ancestor of the target element is another thing).

Thanks Nir, very good cheat sheet for binding related stuff, this will definitely get posterized. Too bad I can't accept more than one answer. Cheers. – Pop Catalin Feb 02 '09 at 10:32

@Nir - this is a great resource that's been passed around quite a lot in the WPF community. I've made some revisions and additions (I hope you don't mind) which I have on Google Docs here: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0BzfY1xYjsjYbOXdGV0RGZDNHM0k – Alain Apr 18 '12 at 20:10

In advance of the imminent Visual Studio 2010 release, I put together a quick reference wall chart that may be of interest. On a single page I compare and contrast the toolbox-centric features of:

Visual Studio 2008 vs. 2010
.Net 3.5 vs. 4.0
WinForm vs. WPF

My article about the implications of this wallchart is available on Simple-Talk.com. In the "bubble" at the top of the article you will find links to the wallchart in PDF form, provided in both LTR and A4 sizes.

I've created a XAML cheatsheet which is currently focussing on Silverlight. At some point in the future I intend on having a WPF one as well, although I'm mindful of duplication of effort with regards to WPF. There are already a number around. It would focus on complementing them not competing.

All feedback welcomed!

Update: I've not renewed the domain name but wayback machine has a copy archived here.

Thank you for the easy to understand Cheat-Sheet! Can you please make it easier to print? – Gerhard Powell Apr 20 '12 at 16:57
You're welcome. :) I hadn't thought of printing. What's the issue you are having with printing? Purely layout? – Stephen Price Apr 26 '12 at 02:16
:) The scrollbars cause the data to get cut off. – Gerhard Powell Apr 26 '12 at 17:02
Sorry it took so long to fix, I didn't see your comment. Have changed the format slightly so no scrollbars. Should print nicer now. Thanks! – Stephen Price Aug 23 '12 at 04:50
The link is broken. :( – Eric Dand Jan 08 '15 at 18:42
yeah, sry about that. I kind of let the domain name lapse. Not been working in the Silverlight space since Microsoft abandoned it. Perhaps it is on the waybackmachine? I'll check – Stephen Price Jan 13 '15 at 02:22
Ok it's here... https://web.archive.org/web/20120104133557/http://www.xamlsource.net/xamlcheatsheet better than nothing I guess. – Stephen Price Jan 13 '15 at 02:23

The .NET Framework 3.5 Commonly Used Types and Namespaces poster has a section on common things in WPF as well as several other sections including Fundamentals.

It's available in a couple of different formats like XPS and PDF. Perhaps it could be useful...

I already know about that poster, but that is not what I was looking for, I want a XAML cheat sheet not class library poster. – Pop Catalin Jan 29 '09 at 13:01

I created a XAML Cheat Sheet not long after WPF first came out. It's nice because it has a lot more than just data bindings.
