I was investigate a GDI/GDI+ related bug the other day and I found out that GDI+ doesn’t render RTL text very well. In order to render it correctly you need to render it using GDI. GDI+ Text rendering This is done by Graphics.DrawString(…) / Graphics.MeasureString(..) GDI Text rendering This is done by TextRenderer.DrawText(..) / TextRenderer.MeasureText(…) The interesting thing about GDI text measuring is that it sometimes the measured size might be larger than the maximum size so be aware of that...

This is more of a general post on various collections and how does WPF bind to them and what are the interfaces that WPF uses in order to manage those collections. When binding collection to an ItemsControl (TreeView, ListView, ListBox, ComboBox and etc) or to a more simple control (Button, TextBox, TextBlock and etc) WPF creates behind the scene an ICollectionView object. This object can be one of the following types: CollectionView – handles collections that implement IEnumerable ListCollectionView...
