I’m developing a phone app and need a modal dialog with some “rich” content – a few text boxes and a drop down. OK, not very rich but more than a MessageBox. :>
In regular Silverlight I know there’s the ChildWindow control – but can’t find the equivalent in Phone 7.
How have other folks done rich popup dialogs on the phone?
Thanks!
Silverlight actually has a control called a Popup. Here’s the MSDN documentation.
It’s incredibly simple to use (just set IsOpen to true to dispay) and quite effective. The only reason you might use a Panel with manual state control would be is you want precision control over animations etc.
