I have a Silverlight app that has a bunch of styles that are referenced everywhere in various controls...etc. If I apply one of the default silverlight.toolkit.themes to the app will these styles be overridden by the them (assuming the theme affects whatever the styles are applied to)? Thanks!! ...
Hi Everyone I am using Silverlight 4 and I am trying to integrate one of the themes from the Silverlight 4 toolkit from April. My App.xaml reads as follows: <Application.Resources> <ResourceDictionary> <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries> <ResourceDictionary Source="Themes/System.Windows.Controls.Theming.Exp...
I've got a Grid in my XAML page. The grid is simply a holder for XAML loaded from the database: <Grid x:Name="dynamicXamlHolder" /> I want all <TextBlock> objects that get inserted into that grid to have .TextWrapping = Wrap. How can I do this? I'm sensing styles might be the answer, but it's unclear to me how to create a grid style...
I was just reading an article about the non-compatibility of some CSS, when it occurred to me that maybe I should be writing all of my CSS in jQuery. Aside from javascript-disabled browsers, which any ajax website isn't going to support anyway, what's the downside? The benefit, aside from greater browser support, would be the use of var...
I'm developing a Silverlight 4 app that has to live within an existing ASP/HTML based site, which has its own css stylesheet. I want the Silverlight app to share the look and feel of its container application, so I'm wondering about the best way to accomplish this. About the only way I can think of would be to translate the css styles ...

I am following an example project "Sky" by Jeff Sharkey using styles in my layout. It is working out quite well, however, I cannot determine how to specify the font type-face using the styles. Without this, I will have to apply the font explicitly to every TextView, EditView, etc., whereas I want to control where and when it is applied...
I wanted to add a stylesheet to my xml file. But when I add the xml-stylesheet the whole formatting disappears, and I'm getting pure string of data. How to do it right ? <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="sitemap.css"?> <urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9"> {% spaceles...
I have a minor issue. We'd like to put as much stylistic items in the styles and outside of the control templates, to make themeing easier. So for the scrollbar's repeatbutton, I can get all of this to work but IsPressed. That only works from the template. So the template is (basically): <ControlTemplate x:Key="ScrollBarButtonCT" ...
Hi, I recognise this is a popular question but I couldn't find anything that answered it exactly, but I apologise if I've missed something in my searches. I'm trying to create and then measure a control at runtime using the following code (the measurements will then be used to marquee-style scroll the controls - each control is a differ...
So I'm styling a ListBox and I've got to the part where I need to do a greyed out style when the ListBox is disabled. However when I look a the states tab in Blend, there's only Validation States present - no sign of the usual Common States which include the Disabled state. I tried creating a vanilla project with no custom styles and ju...

Hi, I'm trying to recreate the style of ComboBox in WPF that you see in windows explorer. I'm trying to create something similar to the 'Arrange by:' combobox, which is under Libraries->Documents for example. The combobox has no outline until you hover over it, and when clicked, displays a context menu which allows a single selection. ...
