Question

I have the following simple button with an image as the template. The problem is that I want to change the image to a resource, instead of a content reference. I want to do this so I can share the DLL as a re-usable library, and it doesn’t work well when I do that.

How do I tell the Image object to use an embedded resource in a declarative way?

<Button x:Name='LogoutButton' Click='Button_Click'>   <Button.Template>     <ControlTemplate>       <Image Source='Resources/logout.png' />     </ControlTemplate>   </Button.Template> </Button> 

Answer 1

Ok, I figured it out:

1. Don’t make it an embedded resource. Make it a Resource/Do Not Copy

That is all there is to it. Reference it like you would a content path, and it works.
