How to template a FeatureDataForm

DonFreeman — Tue, 08 Feb 2011 13:33:49 GMT

I am assuming esri's FeatureDataForm can be templated similar to the standard silverlight dataform. Is this correct? If so, can someone point me to a sample so I can see how to set the various values?

Thanks

Sure. The easiest way is to use Blend : create a featuredataform, right-click, edit template, edit a copy, ....

If you don't own Blend, I give you the default template:

 
        <Style x:Key="FeatureDataFormStyle1" TargetType="esri:FeatureDataForm">
         <Setter Property="Background">
          <Setter.Value>
           <LinearGradientBrush EndPoint="0.5,1" StartPoint="0.5,0">
            <GradientStop Color="#FFF3F7FA" Offset="0"/>
            <GradientStop Color="#FFFFFFFF" Offset="0.1"/>
           </LinearGradientBrush>
          </Setter.Value>
         </Setter>
         <Setter Property="BorderBrush">
          <Setter.Value>
           <LinearGradientBrush EndPoint="0,1" StartPoint="0,0">
            <GradientStop Color="#FFA3AEB9" Offset="0"/>
            <GradientStop Color="#FF8399A9" Offset="0.375"/>
            <GradientStop Color="#FF718597" Offset="0.375"/>
            <GradientStop Color="#FF617584" Offset="1"/>
           </LinearGradientBrush>
          </Setter.Value>
         </Setter>
         <Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="1"/>
         <Setter Property="Template">
          <Setter.Value>
           <ControlTemplate TargetType="esri:FeatureDataForm">
            <Border x:Name="DataFormBorder" BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}" BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}" Background="{TemplateBinding Background}" CornerRadius="2">
             <Border.Resources>
              <Style x:Key="CustomScrollViewerStyle" TargetType="ScrollViewer">

debroux -
Thanks, but Wow. That's not what I expected and I'm not sure it will get me to where I need to be. I need to be able to dynamically specify which fields are available to which users and which fields are editable, and maybe even turn a label within the dataform on and off. So maybe my original question was misguided. How would you do these things? Can they be done with a style?

I was thinking more along the lines of
<FeatureDataform.EditTemplate>
<Label><textbox>
<button>
etc.
