Kathy, one quick question: When you say "Future version of SL" do you mean like SL 3 or are we still talking version 2?

Thanks!

..Ben

Hi Ben,

"future" means some future version after SL 2.

Thanks,

Kathy

Hope watermark is available on similar controls like ComboBox - this could be exposed via control template or attached property like ToolTip.

Hi Kathy,

I previously upgraded the control for Silverlight 2 beta 2 as well (http://craign.net/2008/06/10/watermarkedtextbox-control-for-silverlight-2-beta-2/) however I never took advantage of the VSM.

Are you going to update the control to use the DefaultStyle and generic.xaml so that it can be styled using a future build of Blend? I was about to blog the updated code when I saw your post on it. Would you like a copy of my changes perhaps?

Kathy, Thanks for providing the same, but i guess we will have to either copy the source code into our projects, or rename the assembly, as it otherwise conflicts with the released System.Windows.Controls.Extended assembly which I would use to work with controls inside of it.

How does this work now?

I'm trying to follow Scott Guthrie's silverlight tutorial.. but I can't do it with this.

AARGH.

Why you don't built a watermarkedtextbox .dll file cause when I download the zip file above I can't build it, they said it's not my currently using version!

The System.Windows.Controls.Extended.Test project misses a reference to the System.Windows.Controls.Extended project.

After adding the reference, the solution builds!

I've just tested my compiled WatermarkedTextBox project with the Silverlight 2.0 RTW assemblies. When I built my Silverlight project with a WatermarkedTextBox inside I get the error:

unknown attribute "Duration" for element "VisualTransition". [Line: 1 Position: 997]

How I can solve this problem?

Cheers zazi

Hi~

I tried using that.

But it isn't working.

Could you explain to use that control in Silverlight 2 RTW(2.0.31005.0)?

I want to use that control.

Please~

re: WatermarkedTextBox for Silverlight 2 Beta 2

zazi — Thu, 16 Oct 2008 16:51:06 GMT

For all who tried to get the WatermarkedTextBox assembly to work with Silverlight 2.0 RTW:

You have to change the "Duration" property of the VisualTransition class in the WatermarkedTextBox.xaml of the project to "GeneratedDuration" - then it will work.

Cheers Zazi

This article offers buggy code with inadequate information about how to use it. Very frustrating. WHERE does the compiled DLL go?? Why doesn't the test code work? Someone commented that a reference is missing, but didn't give the line of code that could fix it.

Why bother posting something this sloppy - doesn't help anyone.

re: WatermarkedTextBox for Silverlight 2 Beta 2

Sheryl — Sun, 11 Jan 2009 01:04:54 GMT

There are tons of problems with this code. Even after I correct the problems that users kindly posted in comments, it does not run. The Test project snags on two Assert statements.

You also give no information here on how to reference the controls built here. It's a really inadequate article with buggy code.

You chose not to post my previous comment. Fine - you don't like criticism. But then at least fix the problem. Post instructions on how to fix the bugs, or post updated code, and add information on references the dlls in a new project. A newbie is not going to know this.

Thank you for not censoring.

Hi Sheryl,

Sorry that you were frustrated. But this code is for Silverlight 2 Beta 2. Are you trying to compile this with Silverlight 2 RTW? If so, then I am not surprised you ran into problems. There was quite a few breaking changes between Beta 2 and RTW.

Tim has posted the updated code for WatermarkedTextBox for RTW that you might find helpful:

Justin — Tue, 28 Apr 2009 04:07:40 GMT

The above watermark assembly doesn't work anymore. Do a search in the System.Windows.Controls.Extended project for "VisualTransition". You'll get 4 results, change the "Duration" attribute on each to "GeneratedDuration".

re: WatermarkedTextBox for Silverlight 2 Beta 2

annonymous — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 21:32:00 GMT

yes Alter the 4 Duration to GeneratedDuration and build the System.Windows.Controls.Extended project and on your project you can have the watermarked work fine.
