I want to preface this by saying I’m a noob with WPF/.net programming.
Here is my question that requires a bit of guidance. I have a window and I load pages in and out as my navigation. On one particular page, when the user clicks on one of the items (button for example), I need to display a small form to gather more information. I’m not sure what the best approach is… what I would love (but do not know where to begin even searching for this solution) would be to open a popup balloon style window with a few textboxes and a submit button.
Other options I’ve explored would be to use a separate page. Save off the current page and load a new page with these textboxes and a submit button. Or to use a custom messagebox instead (least favorite option).
I would like this new extra info page to blend in with rest of the app so that the main page is still visible in the background. Any suggestions??
I ended up using modal window (ShowDialog) method for this.
