Question

I have a little problem right now and I don’t know how to fix it. I want to add two resources to a window. One is a XAML File style resource, the other a ValueConverter Class.

Both of them work if I use only one resource at a time:

 <Window.Resources>     <ResourceDictionary Source='Resources\MyStyles.xaml' />  <Window.Resources> 

or

<Window.Resources>     <local:MarginConverter x:Key='adjustMargin'/> </Window.Resources> 

But if I try something like this:

<Window.Resources>     <local:MarginConverter x:Key='adjustMargin'/>     <ResourceDictionary Source='Resources\MyStyles.xaml' /> </Window.Resources> 

I get the message the resource is already been set and can not set twice.

I have no idea how to get this done. Is there something like a resource group?

<Window.Resources>     <ResourceDictionary>         <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>             <ResourceDictionary Source='Resources\MyStyles.xaml' />         </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>          <local:MarginConverter x:Key='adjustMargin'/>     </ResourceDictionary> </Window.Resources>
