Click Button from Generic.xaml?

Question

I am writing a custom control in Silverlight and I am having issues getting my Button to click to the Generic.xaml file. This does not work:

Answer 1

You have to override the OnApplyTemplate() on your custom control class (C# File).

Like this.

    public override void OnApplyTemplate()
    {
        Button btn = GetTemplateChild("ScrollLeft") as Button;
        Debug.Assert(btn != null);
    }

Also, you have to make one more change in the control template in Generic.Xaml like below.

        
            
                
                    <
                
            
        

Note: I removed the Click event handler.
