Animation inside custom GridViewColum

[Tolga]

I am using a RadGridView with a custom GridViewTemplate. Inside that template I simply have an image call "MyImage". Now on the MouseButtonUp event I am triggering certain things...not important, but what is important is that I would like to animate that image based on it's click state.

I created a little sprite (=test app) to build that animation using Blend and VisualStateManager. I copied over the VisualStateManager Xaml block. But now when I click the image in run time I get an exception. "....bla bla TargetName "MyImage" cannot be resolved/found".

So, in essence the VisualStateMange and the therein contained StoryBoard are not able to "find" the "MyImage" image control inside the my custom GridViewColumnTemplate. 

What can I do?

Thanks

Hi Tolga,

Can you please try to create this custom image in a separate UserControl? Having it working in a separate control it will be easier for you to just use this control in the CellTemplate for your column.

Hi Tolga.

To solve this problem, just shake your screen, do a little dance around your chair, give a big hug to one of your favorite co-worker, and it should fix your issue! ;o)
