BackgroundTemplate Property (UXFlow)



Intersoft.Client.UI.Aqua.UXFlow Namespace > UXFlow Class : BackgroundTemplate Property
Gets or sets the template of the background.
Syntax
Public Property BackgroundTemplate As DataTemplate
Dim instance As UXFlow
Dim value As DataTemplate
 
instance.BackgroundTemplate = value
 
value = instance.BackgroundTemplate
public DataTemplate BackgroundTemplate {get; set;}
public:
property DataTemplate^ BackgroundTemplate {
   DataTemplate^ get();
   void set (    DataTemplate^ value);
}
Remarks

The background element of UXFlow is built using Border element. Therefore you have access to properties like Background, BorderBrush, BorderThickness and CornerRadius at your disposal to control the background appearance, such as shown in the following example.

XAML
Copy Code 
<Intersoft:UXFlow x:Name="UXFlow1" Width="700" Height="300" BorderBrush="Black">
    <Intersoft:UXFlow.Background>
        <LinearGradientBrush EndPoint="0.5,1" StartPoint="0.5,0">
                <GradientStop Color="#7FFFF500" Offset="0"/>
                <GradientStop Color="#7F3CE74E" Offset="1"/>
        </LinearGradientBrush>
    </Intersoft:UXFlow.Background>
    <Intersoft:UXFlowItem ImageSource="le-meurice.jpg" Title="Hôtel Le Meurice" SubTitle="Paris, opposite Tuileries Garden."/>
    <Intersoft:UXFlowItem ImageSource="altira-macau.jpg" Title="Altira Macau" SubTitle="Taipa Island, Macau."/>
    
    ...
</Intersoft:UXFlow>

In certain cases, you may want to customize the background entirely. You can create the template and assign the template to the BackgroundTemplate property. You can also create the template directly from the provided context menu in design-time.

The following example shows how to customize the background entirely by customizing the BackgroundTemplate.

XAML
Copy Code 
<Intersoft:UXFlow x:Name="UXFlow1" Width="700" Height="300">
    <Intersoft:UXFlow.BackgroundTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <Grid>
                <Grid.Background>
                    <LinearGradientBrush EndPoint="0.5,1" StartPoint="0.5,0">
                        <GradientStop Color="White" Offset="0"/>
                        <GradientStop Color="Black" Offset="1"/>
                    </LinearGradientBrush>
                </Grid.Background>
                <Intersoft:GlassLabel Content="Recommended Hotels" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" Margin="8,8,0,0" CornerRadius="0"/>
            </Grid>
        </DataTemplate>
    </Intersoft:UXFlow.BackgroundTemplate>
    <Intersoft:UXFlowItem ImageSource="le-meurice.jpg" Title="Hôtel Le Meurice" SubTitle="Paris, opposite Tuileries Garden."/>
    <Intersoft:UXFlowItem ImageSource="altira-macau.jpg" Title="Altira Macau" SubTitle="Taipa Island, Macau."/>
    
    ...
</Intersoft:UXFlow>
