Bummer about Silverlight 4 on WM7.  

 

I guess what really excites me though is that I can use XAML and easily
create a nice UX on my Window Mobile.

 

Still, I won't be able to upgrade my current phone to WM7 so it's going
to be a development only experience for me for a while *pout*.

 

On the bright side, maybe I can sell a few apps on the market place and
make enough to buy a new phone *smile*.

 

Carl.

I remember buying a Windows Mobile phone some years ago, with
excitement, I was looking forward to writing some apps for it. I think I
wrote one. It calculated if it was cheaper to buy bottles of coke or
cans of coke. 

 

I think I'll stick with my iPhone this time around. I've learned my
lesson... just because you can write something doesn't necessarily mean
you will. :)

 

cheers,

Stephen

Surely Windows Mobile 7 will finally get me off my @ss and coding some
Silverlight 4 (and XNA).

I think these are one of the many gripes I had with 3 and my lack of
motivation to write an actual SL app.

I know I'll be frustrated as hell moving from WPF down to SL3, with
these subtlties in the way. But hopefully SL4 becomes the starting path
for me.

You can use the Silverlight toolkit to apply your theme.xaml file and
then put implicit styles in that theme file. 

 

Its funny, I was surprised you couldn't do it, had forgotten I was using
the toolkit to apply my implicit styles. Glad its part of SL4.

In WPF you can do this in say your app.xaml or in a merged dictionary:

 <Application.Resources>
   <Style TargetType="Button">
     <Setter Property="Background" Value="Red"/>
   </Style>
 </Application.Resources>

And all buttons will be red unless the style is overridden.

This doesn't work in Silverlight 3.  You have to name the style then
reference it as a static resource:

 <Style TargetType="Button" x:Name="buttonStyle">
     <Setter Property="Background" Value="Red"/>
   </Style>

<Button Style="{StaticResource buttonStyle}"></Button>

Of course you can do this via the UI in Blend as well.

I think it might be possible to set implicit styles in Silverlight 4
but haven't tried.
