RE: sketchflow styles

2010-01-06 Thread Carl . Scarlett
I've noticed that Blend likes to make resources dynamic where static
will do.  It's probably some Blend strategy to make resources work in a
variety of circumstances.

 

Once we get to development, we find the XAML from the prototype doesn't
quite work with the production code and we have to tweak some things.
It's at this point that we ensure the resources are tied down so we don'
t get performance problems, memory leaks, etc.

 

[I should point out that the Blend vision of working a prototype through
to production code doesn't work with solutions of the scale that my
company works on.  Our prototypes are purely for design, discussion,
analysis, and documentation processes and most of the XAML gets thrown
away once the prototype is complete.]

 

Carl.

I wonder why those need to be DynamicResource's?  Is that just because
that's Blend's view of the world?

I understand now.  It is nothing special.  Just the fontfamily and
fontsize is inhereted from parent panel.

I created a new style very easily by copying one of the others from
SketchStyles.xaml.

This can be done I suppose for any UI element that doesn't have a
default sketch style :

sketchflow styles

2010-01-06 Thread Vishwanath Humpy
I am doing a sketchflow prototypes and blend is now my friend since the good 
advice the other day. Wpf but I dont think that matters much.

I put a listview inside a tabcontrol / tabitem and the listview seems to 
automatically inheret the sketchflow style from the tab or something.  It 
automatically using the sketchflow font etc for both the column header and 
cells.

I put a listview on other screen without a tabcontrol in the same sketchflow 
project it doesn't automatically have the sketchflow style.

I like it works automatically as this saves me from creating a style and looks 
strange as default style when everything else is sketch.

I tested and if I put a tabcontrol / item around the other listview it has the 
sketch style.

I wonder how / why this happens in a tabcontrol / tabitem and I wonder how I 
can do it without a tabcontrol?
