Is there a way to do this in Windows Phone 7?
I can reference the TextBlock in my C# Code, but I don't know exactly how to then set the foreground color of it.
myTextBlock.Foreground =
//not a clue...
Thanks

textBlock.Foreground = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.White);
Foreground needs a Brush, so you can use
textBlock.Foreground = Brushes.Navy;
If you want to use the color from RGB or ARGB then
textBlock.Foreground = new System.Windows.Media.SolidColorBrush(System.Windows.Media.Color.FromArgb(100, 255, 125, 35));
or
textBlock.Foreground = new System.Windows.Media.SolidColorBrush(Colors.Navy);
To get the Color from Hex
textBlock.Foreground = new System.Windows.Media.SolidColorBrush((Color)ColorConverter.ConvertFromString("#FFDFD991"));
You could use Brushes.White
to set the foreground.
myTextBlock.Foreground = Brushes.White;
The Brushes
class is located in System.Windows.Media
namespace.
Or, you can press Ctrl+. while the cursor is on the unknown class name to automatically add using
directive.
To get the Color from Hex.
using System.Windows.Media;
Color color = (Color)ColorConverter.ConvertFromString("#FFDFD991");
and then set the foreground
textBlock.Foreground = new System.Windows.Media.SolidColorBrush(color);
