There are other products on the market today that are in competition with Silverlight and can create similar effects, such as Adobe ® ® ® Flash and JavaFX. So why would a developer choose to use Silverlight in other products? The answer is simple: you must use the product that caters to their environment and best suits your requirements for design and development. The list of features included in Silverlight is exhaustive and there are many published articles that cover Silverlight comparison with other products.

I tried this technique but it does not work:

I think we need to use TextBock to trigger the StringFomat.

Here is my problem, I want to add a world “Do” in front of the value of my GetAction property and I dont want to do this with converter class Do you have any ideal how to do this with string format?
CommandParameter=”Do{Binding GetAction}”

Thanks,

Jdang

Guys,

Can anybody say how to show a negative sign for a negative currency value. Right the the negative value is shown in the brackets.

Eg: (123.45). But I want to show as -123.45
