In Expression Blend, right-click the maptip control, select to edit a copy of the template, and you can replace the datagrid with your own set of textblocks that binds to the attributes, similar to the GraphicsLayer's maptip.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 06 May 2010 14:33:07 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-api-for-silverlight-questions/field-alias-name-in-the-maptip-control/m-p/614939#M15830 dotMorten_esri 2010-05-06T14:33:07Z
