Windows Phone 7 Glass frame message prompt

In the last blog, Windows Phone 7, the latest development ToolPak, introduced the phoney project, which has introduced a fading message hint, this article will expand the message that the hint message appears with a glass border, similar to the effect of the Windows 7 form.

Let's take a look at the effect after the run:

In fact, to put it simply is to add a glass to the pop-up box style.

The specific changes are as follows:

Open the FadingMessage.cs file under the Phoneytools project, find the Standardmessage method, add the following code

#region Border LinearGradientBrush brush = new LinearGradientBrush (); Brush.
        EndPoint = new Point (0.5, 1); Brush.
