      • hi, I have an object (MyObject) that I want access to in all XAML Windows (of which there are several) and User Controls. A Window will have multiple User Controls, each of which binds to certain properties of MyObject. Some UCs will bind to the same properties, so I want a single instance of MyObject. I figured the best way to do this was to declare the object (as public) in App.xaml.cs, then si

      • I want a Viewbox-like control that would stop scaling its content once it is displayed at its 'natural' size. For ex. imagine a text at 24 point size that looks like a 8 point size text when Viewbox containing it is 'small'. As Viewbox becomes larger contained text will look larger and eventually look larger than 24 point sized text. Instead, I would like text scaling to stop there.

For example lets say that I have a button with an image in its context, and I want to set the source of the image to a reference in the ResourceDictionary.xaml, and then have that resolve the image.
