Quarter circle guage issue

[James Kucharski]

Im dealing with the following xaml:

       <Grid>  
     <Grid.Resources>
      <ResourceDictionary>
       <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
        <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Controls.Gauge;component/Themes/Generic.xaml" />
       </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
      </ResourceDictionary>
     </Grid.Resources>
        <telerikNavigation:RadToolBar VerticalAlignment="Top">
         <telerikInput:RadComboBox Width="125"/>
         <Button Width="75" Content="Update" BorderThickness="2">
          <Button.BorderBrush>
           <LinearGradientBrush EndPoint="0.5,1" StartPoint="0.5,0">
            <GradientStop Color="#FF718597"/>
            <GradientStop Color="#FF2D3F4D" Offset="1"/>
           </LinearGradientBrush>
          </Button.BorderBrush>
         </Button>
        </telerikNavigation:RadToolBar>
        <Telerik_Windows_Controls:RadChart Height="130" Margin="8,30,191,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Content="RadChart"/>
        <Telerik_Windows_Controls:RadChart Height="130" Margin="8,0,191,109" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" Content="RadChart"/>
        <Telerik_Windows_Controls_Gauge:RadGauge Height="130" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Margin="0,30,8,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="179">
         <Telerik_Windows_Controls_Gauges:RadialGauge HorizontalAlignment="Right" Style="{StaticResource RadialGaugeQuarterCircleNWStyle}">
          <Telerik_Windows_Controls_Gauges:RadialScale Height="100" Width="100" Style="{StaticResource RadialGaugeQuarterCircleNWStyle}"/>
         </Telerik_Windows_Controls_Gauges:RadialGauge>
        </Telerik_Windows_Controls_Gauge:RadGauge>
        <Telerik_Windows_Controls_Gauge:RadGauge HorizontalAlignment="Right" Margin="0,164,8,109" Width="179">
         <Telerik_Windows_Controls_Gauges:RadialGauge HorizontalAlignment="Right">
          <Telerik_Windows_Controls_Gauges:RadialScale Height="100" Width="100"/>
         </Telerik_Windows_Controls_Gauges:RadialGauge>
        </Telerik_Windows_Controls_Gauge:RadGauge>      
       </Grid>

With the following namespaces:

    xmlns:telerik="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls" 
 xmlns:Telerik_Windows_Controls_Charting="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting"
 xmlns:Telerik_Windows_Controls_Gauge="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Gauge"
    xmlns:Telerik_Windows_Controls_Gauges="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls.Gauges;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Gauge"   
 xmlns:dataInput="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls;assembly=System.Windows.Controls.Data.Input"
 xmlns:telerikNavigation="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Navigation"
 xmlns:telerikInput="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Input"
 xmlns:Telerik_Windows_Controls="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting"

I get a cant find resource error for the <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Controls.Gauge;component/Themes/Generic.xaml" /> element.

There is no Telerik.Windows.Themes.Generic.dll included in the silverlight 3 binaries, so I can make that error go away by replacing "Generic.xaml" with "Vista.xaml", but either way the static resource RadialGaugeQuarterCircleNWStyle in the <Telerik_Windows_Controls_Gauges:RadialGauge HorizontalAlignment="Right" Style="{StaticResource RadialGaugeQuarterCircleNWStyle}">(and RadialScale) tags cannot be resolved.

I have Telerik.Windows.Controls.Gauge.dll as a resource, using expression blend 3.

Thanks

Hi James,

We believe the reason for this is a flaw in Blend3 design-time support, which we already reported to Microsoft. Unfortunately the fix did not appear in the official Blend3 RTW (that is out now). We hope we'll see it in the next release.
