Hi,
I am trying to create a dialog box that will eventually be used to hold the PasswordBox control for security logins. The dialog box will be triggered from a button in the Ribbon bar.
Unfortunately I have started to experiment with the WindowControl thinking that I could use this to act a dialog for the PasswordBox and OK/Cancel buttons. So far I have been unable to successfully activate the Windowcontrol (comes back as false).
In the XAML everything I use in my current application (docksites etc.) is held within the following:
<ribbon:RibbonWindow x:Class="Window" x:Name="Window"
</ribbon:RibbonWindow>
To test, in my code (VB.NET) within the class for "Window", I have created a subroutine with the following code, to test that a WindowControl can be raised and I have this triggered from a ribbon bar button.
DialogTest = new WindowControl
DialogTest.HasCloseButton = False
DialogTest.ResizeMode = Windows.ResizeMode.NoResize
DialogTest.Title = "Set Password"
DialogTest.MinWidth = 300
DialogTest.MinHeight = 300
DialogTest.Left = 100
DialogTest.Top = 100
msgbox(DialogTest.Activate.ToString)
It holds no content for now, but I assumed I would be able to show a blank control. Unfortunately as I mentioned, nothing is displayed and the value of the "activate" is false.
Appreciate if you have any ideas as to what I am doing wrong.
