Question

In windows phone 7 is it possible to put a gradient colour inside a textblock?

For example in the XAML part is there a way to indicate style and apply a linear gradient?

Also if so can the gradient be applied dynamically

Answer 1

Try this for foreground

<TextBlock.Foreground>
    <LinearGradientBrush EndPoint="0.5,1" StartPoint="0.5,0">
        GradientStop Color="Black" Offset="0"/>
        <GradientStop Color="#FFFF6565" Offset="1"/>
    </LinearGradientBrush>
</TextBlock.Foreground>

If you need fill background – put textblock inside container
