DataTemplates in resource dictionaries don't inherit from app.xaml styles?

The code won't work well because the DataTemplate in the resource dictionary doesn't know which one is using it, it just been used. Like Hollywood mode. They compiled separately.

Xaml in the same resource dictionary of the DataTemplate or if you don't like this coupling, you can put it in a different resource dictionary, and merge it into the DataTemplate's resource dictionary.

Holywood mode"?... – Shimmy Nov 3 '09 at 2:33 :D, aka. "Don't call me, I will call you. " So, the resource dictionary doesn't know which one would call it, therefore, it doesn't know the Styles outside of it.

– redjackwong Nov 3 '09 at 3:16 you're good... "you can put it in a different resource dictionary, and merge it into the DataTemplate's resource dictionary. " - This is what I used. I think this is the most appropriate answer, so maybe make it bold or put it on top of your answer so people can see it on first look.

The Build Action for your App. Xaml should be ApplicationDefinition, and the build action for your Resource Dictionary files should be Page. I'm guessing you have both of those correct because they are default (and I see that you mentioned about Page already).

I can't think of any other problem with your situation. As long as your static resources are defined in the correct order, which they appear to be, it should be able to find them when you run your application. Edit Debugging idea: Create a fresh resource dictionary called "TestDictionary.

Xaml" with a simple button style. Make sure this dictionary is in the same folder as your other dictionaries (DataTemplate1. Xaml, etc.).

Put a link to only TestDictionary in MergedDictionaries (comment out the others). Put a button on your startup window and apply the style. See if just that works.

If it fails, you know you have an issue with your merge. If it succeeds, something about your DataTemplate might be the problem.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
