I want to create some components and reuse them in different pages, put more than one in a page, etc.
For example, I want to create a component that contains an image, some text, etc. The position of the elements are fixed, but I will change the image, the text... I mean, in a same page I want to put three circles with different image and text...
What is the best way to do it? I've found UserControl, but I'm unable to call a method from another page to change something.
This is my component XAML
<UserControl
x:Class="aa.Components.CircularGraph"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:local="using:Components"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
mc:Ignorable="d"
d:DesignHeight="300"
d:DesignWidth="300">
<Grid Name="view">
<Image Name="imageGraph" Source="../Assets/aa/circuloGris.png"
/>
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical">
<TextBlock Name="firstLine" Text="1" FontFamily="Arial" FontSize="9"></TextBlock>
<TextBlock Name="secondLine" Text="2" FontFamily="Arial" FontSize="9"></TextBlock>
<TextBlock Name="thirdLine" Text="3" FontFamily="Arial" FontSize="9"></TextBlock>
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
</UserControl>
Its code:
public sealed partial class CircularGraph: UserControl {
public CircularGraph() {
this.InitializeComponent();
Height = 300;
Width = 400;
}
public void changeFirstLine(string var) {
firstLine.Text = var;
}
}
In other page I put:
<local:CircularGraph Name="circularGraph"/>
And I've tried to put this in .cs:
protected override void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e) {
circularGraph.changeFirstLine("aaa");
}
But I have an error: The name 'circularGraph' does not exits in the current context.
How can I do this?
Sorry if it's a simple question. I'm newbie at Windows phone. Thank you very much!
