Just as you design your own user interface (UI), or look and feel, for WPF applications, you can provide your own UI for data managed by <b>ColorPicker for WPF and Silverlight</b>. Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML; pronounced "Zammel"), an XML-based declarative language, offers a simple approach to designing your UI without having to write code.</p> <p class="AutoBodyCaption"><strong>Accessing Templates</strong></p> <p class="MsoBodyText">You can access templates in Microsoft Expression Blend by selecting the <span class="LinkClass">C1ColorPicker</span> control and, in the menu, selecting <b>Edit Control Parts (Templates)</b>. Select <b>Edit a Copy</b> to create an editable copy of the current template or <b>Create Empty</b>, to create a new blank template.</p> <p class="MsoBodyText"> </p> <p class="MsoBodyText"><img src="ColorPicker_x0020_Templates_files/image001.png" width="385" height="172"></p> <div style="BORDER-TOP: rgb(200,205,222) 1pt solid; BORDER-RIGHT: rgb(200,205,222) 1pt solid; BACKGROUND: rgb(247,247,255); BORDER-BOTTOM: rgb(200,205,222) 1pt solid; PADDING-BOTTOM: 4pt; PADDING-TOP: 4pt; PADDING-LEFT: 4pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 0.15in; BORDER-LEFT: rgb(200,205,222) 1pt solid; PADDING-RIGHT: 4pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0.15in"> <p class="NoteBox" style="BACKGROUND: rgb(247,247,255); MARGIN: 9pt 0in"><b>Note:</b> If you create a new template through the menu, the template will automatically be linked to that template's property.
