Question

Is there any way to disable all controls inside a container – grid for example?
Thank you!

UPD: Although Silverlight’s Grid has IsEnabled property, there is definitely no IsEnabled property for Windows phone 7 Grid.

Answer 1

After several days of trying to disable all child controls inside Grid, I found following:

1. There is no IsEnabled property for WP7 Grid
2. We can still iterate through all children controls and set their IsEnabled property
3. We can also use the Visibility property for the Grid

Indeed, it doesn’t make much sense showing controls if they are disabled, and it even saves some space and adds some interactivity when we hide and show it according to users’ input.

I agree that this is not very convincing answer, but it is the only one that I have so far. 🙂
