VisualStateManager in Page.xaml that Consumes UserControl Not Working in UWP App












0















in my UWP app, in the code behind



VisualStateManager.GoToState(this,"Layout2",false); 


returns false; when I use VisualStateManager xaml block in page.xaml that consume UserControl.



Here is what i mean. This is page.xaml which consumes User Control:



<local:MainUserControl x:Name="mainControl">
<local:MainUserControl.QuestionContent>
<Grid>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="200"/>
<RowDefinition Height="200"/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="200"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="200"/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

<Border x:Name="imageControl" Background="Red" Height="200" Width="200" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0"/>
<Border x:Name="richTextBoxControl" Background="Yellow" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="1" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch"/>


<VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<VisualStateGroup>
<VisualState x:Name="Layout1"/>
<VisualState x:Name="Layout2">
<Storyboard>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetName="imageControl" Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Grid.Column)">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="1"/>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetName="richTextBoxControl" Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Grid.Column)">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="0"/>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
</VisualStateGroup>
</VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>

</Grid>

</local:MainUserControl.QuestionContent>
</local:MainUserControl>


From code, i am trying to change layout states. But unfortunately not able to do it.



I have also tried to sent "this.mainControl" instead of "this" but failed.



VisualStateManager.GoToState(this.mainControl,"Layout2",false)


And I have also checked my namespaces twice but couldn't managed to fix this issue.



Please take a note, when i remove



<local:MainUserControl x:Name="mainControl">
<local:MainUserControl.QuestionContent>


everything works as expected.



Any help will be appreciated.



Thanks.



Edit: Here is my MainUserControl.xaml

// Using a DependencyProperty as the backing store for Body. This enables animation, styling, binding, etc...
public static readonly DependencyProperty QuestionContentProperty =
DependencyProperty.Register("QuestionContent", typeof(object), typeof(MainUserControl), null);



}


}

  • I need a Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example to diagnose this issue. Or I at least need the way to implement your MainUserControl. Because I create a 'UserControl' and set the same content like your 'local:MainUserControl.QuestionContent', I called VisualStateManager.GoToState(this.mainControl,"Layout2",false) method successfully.

You need to put the VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups as the root panel Grid's immediate child tag like the following:



<Grid>
<VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<VisualStateGroup>
<VisualState x:Name="Layout1"/>
<VisualState x:Name="Layout2">
<Storyboard>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetName="imageControl" Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Grid.Column)">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="1"/>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetName="richTextBoxControl" Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Grid.Column)">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="0"/>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
</VisualStateGroup>
</VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<local:MainUserControl x:Name="mainControl">
<local:MainUserControl.QuestionContent>
<Grid>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="200"/>
<RowDefinition Height="200"/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="200"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="200"/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Border x:Name="imageControl" Background="Red" Height="200" Width="200" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0"/>
<Border x:Name="richTextBoxControl" Background="Yellow" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="1" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch"/>
</Grid>
</local:MainUserControl.QuestionContent>
</local:MainUserControl>
</Grid>


Then, in this XAML page's code-behind, you could call VisualStateManager.GoToState(this, "Layout2", false); to change the visual state.

</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Border x:Name="imageControl" Background="Red" Height="200" Width="200" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0"/>
<Border x:Name="richTextBoxControl" Background="Yellow" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="1" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch"/>
</Grid>
</local:MainUserControl.QuestionContent>
</local:MainUserControl>
</Grid>


Then, in this XAML page's code-behind, you could call VisualStateManager.GoToState(this, "Layout2", false); to change the visual state.

You need to put the VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups as the root panel Grid's immediate child tag like the following:



<Grid>
<VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<VisualStateGroup>
<VisualState x:Name="Layout1"/>
<VisualState x:Name="Layout2">
<Storyboard>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetName="imageControl" Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Grid.Column)">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="1"/>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetName="richTextBoxControl" Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Grid.Column)">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="0"/>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
</VisualStateGroup>
</VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<local:MainUserControl x:Name="mainControl">
<local:MainUserControl.QuestionContent>
<Grid>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="200"/>
<RowDefinition Height="200"/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="200"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="200"/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Border x:Name="imageControl" Background="Red" Height="200" Width="200" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0"/>
<Border x:Name="richTextBoxControl" Background="Yellow" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="1" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch"/>
</Grid>
</local:MainUserControl.QuestionContent>
</local:MainUserControl>
</Grid>
