Problems with SystemTray.IsVisible

[ManniAT]

Hi,

I tried the PhoneApplicationFram just using defaults.

All I did was setting RootFrame= new RadPhoneApplicationFrame();

My MainPage is a Panorama page.
Next I added a PortraitPage and left everything default.
This has set (as wanted) SystemTray.IsVisible=true

When I navigate I get a nice transition without anything else to do which is great.
But when I leave the page the content moves up (about the sice of the SystemTray) before leaving which looks really bad.

Is there a simple way to avoid this?

Thanks in advance
Manfred

Hi Manfred - thank you for reporting this. This is a known limitation in the controls and unfortunately we can not providfe you with a workaround. The whole WP shell is not part of the Silverlight programming model and we can not overlay or animate it.

Hi Valentin,

BUT - the Toolkit animation framework doesn't show this behavior.
I prefer to use Telerik controls - but when I use toolkit in this case it works as expected.
Of course there are no customizations (duration and so on) - but it handle the SystemTray correctly.

Regards
Manfred
