RAD Docking, Property Window and Theming

[Roshil]

Hello,
In My Silverligth Navigation application I am using RAD Docking and  RadThemes.

I am applying RADDocking in the main Page.So thems will effect entire application and Working Fine now.

But I have to integrate Properties tab inside one of my page.So the problems arrives when I applying RaDDocking in that page.Because nesting  docking not supported.(Because I already applied Docking for the Content frame in the mainPage and All other pages coming under this content frame).How can I implement that properties tab in the content page.

If I remove docking in the main Page,then ,themes will not effect for  the entire application.

Please give me a proper way.

Hi Roshil,

Could you please, explain in more details the type of properties tab you wish to implement. A screenshot would be very helpful.

If you wish to use a theme across your entire application, I suggest that you would better set an application theme in App.xaml.cs rather than the MainPage. For example:

public App()
       {
           StyleManager.ApplicationTheme = new Windows7Theme();
           this.Startup += this.Application_Startup;
           this.UnhandledException += this.Application_UnhandledException;
           InitializeComponent();
       }

This way you do not need to define RadDocking in the MainPage, but you could define it in Views/Home.xaml.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,
