I can't get the following to work. The goal is to change the ZIndex of the usercontrol when the mouse is over its content.

XAML: <Wind...
It seems like these two technologies, already similar, are on a path to merge into a single technology. There are a lot more WPF-like controls in the Silverlight toolbox, and WPF now has Silverlight's VisaulStateManager. At this point, it's probably fair to say that Silverlight has even surpassed WPF in terms of the number of themes avai...
