Question

I draged style->simple button and copied the xml and placed in my visual studio xml every thing is resolved except one

<Button Content="Button" Margin="814,496,22,29" Style="{DynamicResource SimpleButton}"/>

xml gives error at DynamicResource and says not resource not found where as if i see this line by opening the solution made in blend and mouse over it says it is

MS.Internal.Design.Metadata.ReflectionTypeNode

so surely this is missing but cannot find it to add please help

Answer 1

In the Blend project you should have a file called "Simple Styles.xaml". Copy it to your Visual Studio project and add reference to it in your App.xaml:

<Application
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    x:Class="MyApplication.App">
    <Application.Resources>
        <ResourceDictionary>
            <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
                <ResourceDictionary Source="Simple Styles.xaml"/>
            </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
        </ResourceDictionary>
    </Application.Resources>
</Application>
