I am trying to get this answer to work, however I get the error The property "Style" can only be set once.
. Why is that?
This is what I have:
<UserControl x:Class="SFVControls.Controls.Basic.BooleanRectangleView"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
mc:Ignorable="d"
d:DesignHeight="20" d:DesignWidth="40">
<StackPanel Name="stackTextPanel" Orientation="Horizontal">
<StackPanel.Style>
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="0,8,0,0" />
<Style TargetType="{x:Type StackPanel}">
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding QuickDrawBarPinned}" Value="False">
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="0,8,0,0" />
</DataTrigger>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding QuickDrawBarPinned}" Value="True">
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="0,48,0,0" />
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</StackPanel.Style>
</StackPanel>
</UserControl>
You've got two direct children of <StackPanel.Style>
: A Setter
for Margin
that belongs within the Style
, and the Style
itself. You can only assign one thing to <StackPanel.Style>
, and that thing has to be a Style
.
So just move the Margin
setter inside the Style
element:
<StackPanel Name="stackTextPanel" Orientation="Horizontal">
<StackPanel.Style>
<Style TargetType="{x:Type StackPanel}">
<!-- Gotta be inside the Style, not outside. -->
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="0,8,0,0" />
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding QuickDrawBarPinned}" Value="False">
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="0,8,0,0" />
</DataTrigger>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding QuickDrawBarPinned}" Value="True">
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="0,48,0,0" />
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</StackPanel.Style>
</StackPanel>
In short, your style has a fashion faux pas.
