Change Zindex via xaml

Question

Is it possible to update the zindex property of an element via a trigger in the xaml?

I thought something like below would work, but it's not:

<i:EventTrigger EventName="MouseEnter">
     <ei:ChangePropertyAction TargetObject="{Binding ElementName=Grid}"  PropertyName="Canvas.ZIndex" Value="999"/>
</i:EventTrigger>

thanks, voss.

You should try to describe PropertyName as "(Canvas.ZIndex)" since ZIndex is attached property. (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc645024(VS.95).aspx)
