  • They are difficult to enable or disable
  • They support input gestures like keyboard shortcuts (correct)
  • They make two-way communication simpler

    • How can you create a custom command in WPF?

  • By only defining the Execute method
  • By implementing ICommand interface with Execute, CanExecute, CanExecuteChanged methods (correct)
  • By defining keyboard shortcuts
  • By hard-coding the command logic

    • Why might two-way communication become cumbersome when handling controls in WPF?

  • Because there is no support for keyboard shortcuts
  • Because commands are tightly coupled with events
  • Because you don't want the list of controls hard-coded (correct)
  • Due to the hard-coding of control behavior
