Hi
In a wpf project I have this XAML code
<Window

</Window>
and the following code behind on the window
public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
public MainWindow()
{
this.InitializeComponent();
}
private void Button1_Click(object sender, System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs e)
{
VisualStateManager.GoToState(this, "Loading", true);
}
private void Button2_Click(object sender, System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs e)
{
VisualStateManager.GoToState(this, "Normal", true);
}
}
However, when I click the first button (button1) the state change is not being triggered.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance
