    text
    copied!<p>I am trying to re-use a XAML <code>&lt;Path /&gt;</code> that I have made for an icon in my Windows 8 Store App, however when I attempt to re-use them more than once, it never displays?</p> <p>For example, both the initial instances are fine and my Tick/Cross path renders with this XAML code:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Path x:Name="TickGlyph" Style="{StaticResource TickGlyph}" Fill="#FF008500" Grid.Column="1" Width="48" Height="48" Margin="24,0,4,0" /&gt; &lt;Path x:Name="CrossGlyph" Style="{StaticResource CrossGlyph}" Fill="#FF850000" Grid.Column="1" Width="48" Height="48" Margin="24,0,4,0" /&gt; </code></pre> <p>As soon as I repeat that code with names like <code>TickGlyph1</code> etc, my subsequent paths are simply blank, could anybody explain what's going on here, or is this some weird limitation with XAML for Windows Store apps?</p> <p>My underlying Styles are as follows:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Style x:Key="TickGlyph" TargetType="Path"&gt; &lt;Setter Property="Data" Value="F1 M 45.12,5.49L 21.255,40.8L 20.4525,40.8L 0,23.2875L 5.775,15.7875L 19.2525,27.3L 37.695,-1.90735e-006L 45.12,5.49 Z "/&gt; &lt;Setter Property="Stretch" Value="Fill"&gt;&lt;/Setter&gt; &lt;/Style&gt; &lt;Style x:Key="CrossGlyph" TargetType="Path"&gt; &lt;Setter Property="Data" Value="F1 M 0,32.505L 13.4025,19.1025L 0,5.69249L 5.67,-7.62939e-006L 19.08,13.41L 32.505,-7.62939e-006L 38.205,5.67L 24.7725,19.1025L 38.205,32.535L 32.505,38.205L 19.08,24.795L 5.67,38.205L 0,32.505 Z "/&gt; &lt;Setter Property="Stretch" Value="Fill"&gt;&lt;/Setter&gt; &lt;/Style&gt; </code></pre> <p><hr> <strong>Update 2012-10-20:</strong> The strange thing is, if I replace <code>Style="{StaticResource TickGlyph}"</code> for <code>Data="F1 M 45.12,5.49L 21.255,40.8L 20.4525,40.8L 0,23.2875L 5.775,15.7875L 19.2525,27.3L 37.695,-1.90735e-006L 45.12,5.49 Z "</code> all my paths load ok, why won't the <code>Style</code> attribute honour? :(</p>
