"Ambiguous Reference" error when editing the default style of the RadScheduleView control

[Ramon Alejandro]

I'm trying to make a custom appointment following this tutorial. I clone the style using Right Click -> Edit Template -> Edit a Copy. The resulting code has several  ambiguous reference error. I read that the solution is to use the fully qualified namespace but I don't know which option is correct.

One of the errors is in the line 

<Style TargetType="{x:Type telerik:DragVisual}">

but DragVisual is defined in both Telerik.Windows.Controls and Telerik.Windows.DragDrop. Which one should I use?

Hi Ramon,

You are experience this behavior as a consequence of the way how Blend extract the templates. It tries to match all used namespaces to the default one (xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2008/xaml/presentation" ). To have more clear view how to create a custom templates we recommend to get acquainted with the following articles:

• Setting a Theme (Using Implicit Styles);
• Editing Control Templates;

As per the the current case you should use this namespace - xmlns:telerikScheduleView="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.ScheduleView" - for DragVisual.
