Working with Resources in WPF
- by Coesy
I am wanting to use the example from
http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/blogs/tomershamam/archive/2008/09/22/lt-howto-gt-replace-listview-columns-with-rows-lt-howto-gt.aspx
However I don't want to put this into the App.xaml code as this will apply to ALL gridviews, how do I apply this example to a select few gridviews in the application? The Resources look like this
<Style TargetType="{x:Type GridViewHeaderRowPresenter}">
<Setter Property="Height" Value="80" />
<Setter Property="LayoutTransform">
<Setter.Value>
<TransformGroup>
<RotateTransform Angle="-90" />
<ScaleTransform ScaleY="-1" />
</TransformGroup>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
<Style TargetType="{x:Type GridViewRowPresenter}">
<Setter Property="LayoutTransform">
<Setter.Value>
<TransformGroup>
<RotateTransform Angle="-90" />
<ScaleTransform ScaleY="-1" />
</TransformGroup>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>

I have tried creating a usercontrol and sticking that lot in the UserControl.Resources section but it didn't work, I can only get this example to work if i put them into the Application.Resources section which i obviously don't want. Help!! :-)
