[WIP]

Fixes #88

@Kinnara, I can't continue at this point without your help.

I'm struggling with popup placement and transform to visual method.

I need your help.

I messed up the commits. So, I had to close this PR. I will open a new PR once I finish porting it completely & successfully.

[ShankarBUS]

Okay I finally fixed the commits (learnt some git skills ay!). Whew! I could now finally start my work!

[ShankarBUS]

I will wait for #225 to be merged because of the intense changes in it.

Hi @ShankarBUS Is this PR completed? Or still needs work?
Is it possible to make a video of the steps of porting the controls from winui to wpf?😅
By doing this, more people may be able to help you port

@ghost1372,

Is this PR completed? Or still needs work?

It's obviously incomplete 😅. It needs more work which I can't do anymore....

Is it possible to make a video of the steps of porting the controls from winui to wpf? 😅

As for porting C++/WinRT to C#/WinRT I would recommend watching live coding videos of Martin Zikmund especially the ones where he ports SpinButton to C#/Uno Platform.

As for porting C#/WinRT to C#/.NET/WPF, it is by trial and error. You gotta find which .NET/WPF APIs could replace UWP [XAML] specific APIs. That's where I am currently stuck at 😅.

By doing this, more people may be able to help you port

I would be more than happy if someone could make wealth out of my scraps 😄.

thank you @ShankarBUS
you are the best😅

@ShankarBUS I wanted to thank you for introducing the video
I tried to port the InfoBar control today And when I was porting the C++ code, I found out that Uno has already ported C++ code to C#/WinRT, so why not port C#/WinRT to C#/WPF?
I tried and was able to port InfoBar control to WPF😁
Of course, the port is not quite accurate, but it is not bad, it is great for my first time

I think porting from Uno can be useful

[ShankarBUS]

I always use Uno Platform as a reference. But the problem is they customize the C# port for Uno platform. ModernWpf is quite unique. Resource Management, Coding convention are different from that of Uno platform.

So porting directly from the C++/WinRT is better for many reasons.

What you can do is, port directly from WinUI C++/WinRT and keep Uno platform's port as a reference.

Is this really work?
