I’m a big fan of Stack Overflow and I tend to contribute regularly (am currently in the top 0.X%). In this category (stackoverflow) of posts I will will be posting my top rated questions and answers. This, btw, is allowed as explained in the meta thread here.
My question was:
I have this as the style template:
<Style x:Key="myDogToggleButton1" TargetType="ToggleButton" BasedOn="{x:Null}"> <Setter Property="FocusVisualStyle" Value="{x:Null}"/> <Setter Property="Template"> <Setter.Value> <ControlTemplate TargetType="ToggleButton"> <Grid> <Image Name="Normal" Source="/images/dogs/dog1.png"/> <Image Name="Pressed" Source="/images/dogs/dog3.png" Visibility="Hidden"/> <Image Name="Disabled" Source="images/dogs/dog5.png" Visibility="Hidden"/> </Grid> <ControlTemplate.Triggers> <Trigger Property="IsPressed" Value="True"> <Setter TargetName="Normal" Property="Visibility" Value="Hidden"/> <Setter TargetName="Pressed" Property="Visibility" Value="Visible"/> </Trigger> <Trigger Property="IsEnabled" Value="False"> <Setter TargetName="Normal" Property="Visibility" Value="Hidden"/> <Setter TargetName="Disabled" Property="Visibility" Value="Visible"/> </Trigger> </ControlTemplate.Triggers> </ControlTemplate> </Setter.Value> </Setter> </Style>
And now I want another one which is based on the upper one, and this doesn’t work:
<Style x:Key="myDogToggleButton2" TargetType="ToggleButton" BasedOn="{DynamicResource myDogToggleButton1}"> <Setter Property="Normal" Value="/images/dogs/dog2.png" /> <Setter Property="Pressed" Value="/images/dogs/dog2.png" /> <Setter Property="Disabled" Value="/images/dogs/dog2.png" /> </Style>
The error message I get is:
The member "Pressed" is not recognized or is not accessible. The member "Normal" is not recognized or is not accessible. The member "Disabled" is not recognized or is not accessible.
I suspect that my different style calling is wrong, so please point out the error.
The answer, by user Heena Patil, was:
