Question

Consider the following bit of code:

<UserControl x:Name=root>
....
    <TextBlock Text="Hello World" Margin="{Binding ElementName=root, Path=LeftButtonMargin}"/>
....
</UserControl>

Now, what is the syntax for setting the FallBackvalue on the Binding?
I’ve tried some different options already, but I cannot seem to find the correct syntax:

Margin="{Binding ElementName=root, Path=LeftButtonMargin, FallBackValue={}10,10,0,0}"
Margin="{Binding ElementName=root, Path=LeftButtonMargin, FallBackValue={}{10,10,0,0}}"
Margin="{Binding ElementName=root, Path=LeftButtonMargin, FallBackValue={}"10,10,0,0"}"

Or is this not possible at all? Basically, I need these values at design time…

Answer 1

Hopefully works,

<UserControl.Resources>
 <Thickness x:Key="MyMargin" Bottom="5" Top="10">

 </Thickness>
<UserControl.Resources>


<TextBlock Text="Hello World" 
Margin="{Binding ...,FallBackValue={StaticResource MyMargin}}"/>
