Lettuce grown using SNAP Hydroponics

Do not be too guilty about spending some money. Do not stop trying and changing your methods until you reach your goal. Continue on widening your skillset.

I had about 4 or 5 tries starting with germinating seeds. I had a lot of issues growing seedlings.

In the end, I had to set up my own greenhouse. Also, I still have a lot to improve.

WPF – Touchdown event firing at overlapping controls.

This happens when a button or link behind another button or link is getting its touchdown event fired as well.

The fix here:

1. Make sure tap event of both controls are subscribed on the Touchdown event.
2. Put a e.Handled = true; statement inside the eventhandler of the overlapping control.

Example:

Code Snippet

private void OpenDoctor_Touch(object sender, TouchEventArgs e)
{
    e.Handled = true;
    string commandParameter = ((Button)sender).CommandParameter.ToString();
    var viewModel = (DoctorsBySpecializationViewModel)DataContext;
    if (viewModel.OpenDoctor.CanExecute(commandParameter))
        viewModel.OpenDoctor.Execute(commandParameter);
}

Happy Coding!
