2.1 Legend LayerItems Description and Copyright Text *SOLVED

Question

Sorry for all the posts about the Legend control... I really like the control but just need to work a few things out for the requirments I have :) .

1)  The "Description" for a service is not set but the "Description" for the sub-layers is set to that of the services "Description"... this is in the Legend.LayerItems collection which is being bound to in the XAML control... is this a bug?  It seems backward... or am I doing something wrong?
*EDIT* Ok, this is wierd, now all of a sudden the "Description" is set for the services that are coming from our gis server, but not from the ESRI services (Aerial, Topo, Etc)...  If i use Layer.Description my tooltip is fine even on the ESRI services...
*EDIT 2* I must have done something... because I don't have this issue with sublayers having the main services description anymore... not really sure why though.

2) Could you also add the "CopyrightText" to the LayerItemViewModel so I could easily bind to that aswell?  
*EDIT* I can just get this from "Layer.CopyrightText" in the xaml... I was affraid that might cause issues, but it seems fine... so this question is solved for me, thanks!

I like to show the "Description" and "CopyrightText" in the tooltips for the service.

Thanks a lot!

*EDIT 3*
Still not sure why the "Description" is not set on the ESRI services, but I got all my issues worked out... guess I jumped the gun on posting this here.

Oh thanks again ..
Its was so easy but using:
Layer.Description
or
Layer.CopyrightText

But we need to assing these properties to service level.
At layer level, we don´t know how to access description or copyright , for example of raster layer in one dynamic service.
Capa: The World Atlas of the Artificial Night Sky Brightness (Id.: 0)
Campo de visualización: 
Tipo: Raster Layer
Tipo de geometría: 
Descripción: Ratios between the artificial sky brightness and the natural sky brightness

At the moment the high level solution its good, Thank you.

Thx Rcodey..

But I don´t find LayerInfo.Description or LayerInfo.CopyrightText in silverlight api model.

I´m access elemento objects at level: e.LayerItem, this a service level.
And e.LayerItem.LayerItems[0].Label is a layer of the service , all this in code.

But in XAML I think we need to binding properties at service level, but I don´t find description or copyright.

Also I´m trying this one with no luck:
Text="{Binding Path=Map.Layers[Layer.ID].Description}"
Text="{Binding Path=Map.Layers[Layer.ID].CopyrightText}"

vpazmadrid, I am not doing this in a ControlTemplate like you are, I am doing it in the DataTemplate... so not sure how much this will help you but here is how I bound the Description and CopyrightText: Hope it helps a little.
