height=\"64\"/\u003e\u0026nbsp;Overview\u003c/h1\u003e\nThe MRUib project supplies MVVM/WPF controls that manage a Most Recently Used list of files.\nSee \u003ca href=\"https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/1202738/MRU-Most-Recently-Used-WPF-control\"\u003eCodeProject article\u003c/a\u003e for more details.\n\n## Details and Demo Applications\nThis library Implements a WPF/MVVM Control libray (with backend) that manages a Most Recently Used list of files:\n- with saving/loading settings from to XML\n- List can be grouped by last access (Pinned, Today, Yesterday, Last Week)\n- A recently used files menu entry sorted by last access (without grouping is also supported)\n- Pinned entries can be moved up and down in the list\n- List entries can be removed based on their age (e.g. Remove all entries older than 1 week)\n- Support for Light/Dark theming is build in\n- Entries in a ListView (or other constrained size view) can be trimmed using Ellipses '...' characters at the Left, Right, or Center of the text string\n\n![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Dirkster99/Docu/master/MruLib/ShowLeftEllipses.png)![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Dirkster99/Docu/master/MruLib/ShowCenterEllipses.png)\n\nSee `ShowEllipses` dependency property of the:\n- [PathTrimmingFileHyperlink](https://github.com/Dirkster99/MRULib/blob/master/source/MRULib/Controls/PathTrimmingFileHyperlink.xaml.cs)\n- [PathTrimmingTextBlock](https://github.com/Dirkster99/MRULib/blob/master/source/MRULib/Controls/PathTrimmingTextBlock.cs)\n\nfor more details.\n\nThere is a demo application and unit test project to demonstrate usage of the control\nand document each feature, such as, the ability to configure a minimum and maximum value\nthat can be used to keep the resulting number of list entries within defined bounds.\n\n## Theming\n\nLoad *Light* or *Dark* brush resources in you resource dictionary to take advantage of existing definitions.\n\n```XAML\n    \u003cResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries\u003e\n        \u003cResourceDictionary Source=\"/MRULib;component/Themes/DarkBrushes.xaml\" /\u003e\n    \u003c/ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries\u003e\n```\n\n```XAML\n    \u003cResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries\u003e\n        \u003cResourceDictionary Source=\"/MRULib;component/Themes/LightBrushes.xaml\" /\u003e\n    \u003c/ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries\u003e\n```\n\nThese definitions do not theme all controls used within this library. You should use a standard theming library, such as:\n- [MahApps.Metro](https://github.com/MahApps/MahApps.Metro),\n- [MLib](https://github.com/Dirkster99/MLib), or\n- [MUI](https://github.com/firstfloorsoftware/mui)\n\nto also theme standard elements, such as, button and textblock etc.\n\nThis library is the third attempt on the subject.
