Hi,

I am creating a demo that uses the tile view control and I would like to make it almost invisible apart from a few controls in the header like the minimise/maximise icon.

To achieve this I have removed the boarder and made the background of the tileview item transparent. I was hoping that there would be an easy way to make the background

of the header transparent but when setting the background to transparent it doesn’t make any difference to the header. Is there a way to make the background header transparent

without having to create a new template in blend and also maintaining the minimise/maximize icons? (I am looking to achieve this in XAML at design time as I am using MvvM)

Kind regards

James

using System.Windows.Media;
using Telerik.Windows.Controls;
 
namespace DragDrop
{
    public class OperativeResource : Resource
    {
       ...
    }
}

Visual Studio is telling me that 'Resource' exists in both
Scheduler.dll and ScheduleView.dll but when I attempt to
inherit from Resource using a fully qualified name...

namespace DragDrop
{
    public class OperativeResource :
      Telerik.Windows.Controls.ScheduleView.Resource
    {
       ...
    }
}
...it says Resource does not exist??
As you can guess I'm trying to define a class that
can be used in the header of the ScheduleView and
it's very important I can do this so any help is
seriously appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan
