i am just beginning WPF and wonder why this works
<Window ...>
<Window.Resources>
<Style x:Name="buttonStyle">
<Style.Setters>
<Setter Property="Button.FontWeight" Value="Bold" />
<Setter Property="Button.Foreground" Value="Aqua" />
</Style.Setters>
</Style>
</Window.Resources>
<Grid>
<StackPanel>
<Button ... Style="{StaticResource buttonStyle}" />
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
</Window>
but this fails,
<Window ...>
<Window.Resources>
<Style x:Name="buttonStyle">
<Style.Setters>
<Setter Property="Button.FontWeight" Value="Bold" />
<Setter Property="Button.Foreground" Value="Aqua" />
</Style.Setters>
</Style>
</Window.Resources>
<Grid>
<StackPanel ...>
<StackPanel.Resources>
<Style x:Name="buttonStyle2">
<Setter Property="Button.Foreground" Value="Red" />
</Style>
</StackPanel.Resources>
<Button ... Style="{StaticResource buttonStyle}" />
<Button ... Style="{StaticResource buttonStyle2}" />
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
</Window>
the error is
- The resource "buttonStyle2" could not be resolved
- The resource "buttonStyle" could not be resolved
buttonStyle
resolves ok in the 1st code (without the 2nd button)
