Hi,
I'm having a hard time understanding the use of styles for the SfPopup component, so that I can have consistent looking pop ups by defining the style only once in my application resources file (App.xaml).
I have looked at your getting started pages, and the accompanying page on styles, but this only explains how to embed the style in every xaml page that uses a pop-up. I want to define this only once, but I'm sorry to say I am struggling.
I am temporarily using obvious colours here so I can see when my style is or isn't being used. Within my ResourceDictionary in App.xaml I have the following attempts at defining a style. I am unsure if I want a PopupStyle or a SfPopupLayout style.
I have attempted to use both of these as below
But at runtime when my popup is visible, none of the custom colours I defined seem to be being used. So although my styling and xaml is acceptable, it is not having any effect.
I seem to be spending far too long on something that I am sure should be simple once I have the correct syntax. I have searched your forum but have not found any similar posts on styling the popups via application resources.
Please could you point me in the direction of, or supply a suitable example of what I am trying to do?
Thanks
Paul

Regarding “Explicit style defined as PopupStyle with key PopupViewStyle” |
To achieve an explicit style for SfPopupView as defined in your code snippet, assign the resource key to the PopupStyle property of SfPopupView, as shown in the following code example:
