I am working on a application development that runs on Windows Embedded Compact 7. I used silverlight 3 and made some custom buttons styles using Blend 3. It works great on blend but after in into a sub project using WEST Tools for Windows Embedded Compact 7 , the same code doesnt execute.

In the XAML , it shows VisualStateManager not found.

Even though I removed VisualStateManager & tried to have a plain style with just color definations , the application still doent work.

In the documentation it is written that ControlTemplate and Styles could be used but cannot be changed , if defined in XAML.

Please Help ! Thanks

  • Did you use the Expression Blend template shipped with WEST? I had no issues using the VSM (though EB marks them, you can safely ignore the warnings). Yet styling is quite difficult. For example: there is no problem styling the template of a button. But even with current updates, you cannot style check boxes or sliders without sacrificing the "proper" execution of your program. It's kind of a minefield with way to much mines to trip on. I'm currently stuck an a ridiculous trial and error procedure. Pretty pathetic for the 21. century since there is no better way of debugging either. – kneo Dec 09 '13 at 11:35
