Hi,
I am trying to show a popup gallery with images.
Your example shows it with bitmapimages, but i must use resources which contains png content.

With this code my images are not shown. What am i doing wrong here?

                                
<ribbon:PopupGallery Name="PageTransitionGallery"  InitialColumnCount="5" >
                                    <ribbon:PopupGallery.CategorizedItemsSource>
                                     <x:Array Type="{x:Type Image}">
                                     <Image ribbon:PopupGallery.Category="No Transition" Source="{x:Static res:Images.block_blue_32x32}"></Image>
                                     <Image ribbon:PopupGallery.Category="Faders" Source="{x:Static res:Images.block_blue_32x32}"></Image>
                                     <Image ribbon:PopupGallery.Category="Wipers" Source="{x:Static res:Images.block_blue_32x32}"></Image>
                                     </x:Array>
                                    </ribbon:PopupGallery.CategorizedItemsSource>
                                    <ribbon:PopupGallery.ItemTemplate>
                                        <DataTemplate>
                                            <Border Margin="2" BorderBrush="#808080" BorderThickness="1"  Width="40" Height="40" SnapsToDevicePixels="True">
                                                <Image Source="{Binding Path=Source}" Stretch="None" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" SnapsToDevicePixels="True" />
                                            </Border>
                                        </DataTemplate>
                                    </ribbon:PopupGallery.ItemTemplate>
                                </ribbon:PopupGallery>

Hi Arthur,

For these types of problems, it's generally better to put together a small sample project that reproduces the issue and email it over to support address. But from the code above you have Image objects as your items (the ones in the array), which are "displayed" using another Image element (the one inside the DataTemplate). Typically, the "items" would be a non-visual element (such as BitmapImage in our sample) and the ItemTemplate indicates how to display the items (such as using an Image element).

But since you bind the Source of the ItemTemplate Image to the Source property of the "items" Images, then it should probably work. So it may be a problem with the res:Images part. But we'd need to see a sample to be sure.

You are right, it works.

After exit VS 2008, reload the project and recompile it shows the images.....
Visual Studio 2008 gets confused and does not show me what it should do...

Sorry for wasting your time.

Thanks.
