I'm actually not using it in a datagrid, but I may at some point.

I have successfully styled the XamMaskedEditor, and now I have two errors that I need an assist on. Here's the error:

Error    1    Ambiguous type reference. A type named 'CardPanel' occurs in at least two namespaces, 'Infragistics.Windows.Controls' and 'Infragistics.Windows.Controls'. Consider adjusting the assembly XmlnsDefinition attributes.    C:\Users\CarolG\Documents\Expression\Blend 4\Projects\maskedEditor\maskedEditor\App.xaml    1    1    maskedEditor
Error    2    Ambiguous type reference. A type named 'SimpleTextBlock' occurs in at least two namespaces, 'Infragistics.Windows.Controls' and 'Infragistics.Windows.Controls'. Consider adjusting the assembly XmlnsDefinition attributes.    C:\Users\CarolG\Documents\Expression\Blend 4\Projects\maskedEditor\maskedEditor\App.xaml    1    1    maskedEditor

<!-- [Infragistics] Andrew Smith
Suggested by [Infragistics] Vince McDonald
IsFocused is a property defined on the base UIElement class which indicates when the element itself is the logically focused element
(i.e. it is the focusedelement of the containing focus scope). When the masked editor enters edit mode, focus is shifted to the SECTIONSLIST within
so that is likely the focused element and so the IsFocused of the xamMaskedEditor itself will be false. You could tie this to when keyboard focus is
within using the IsKeyboardFocusWithin. The editor also has an IsFocusWithin property, which indicates if logical focus is within the editor,
but currently there is an issue where you cannot bind/trigger on that property which should be addressed in a hotfix.-->

Can you tell me what the errors mean and how to fix it?

Thanks

Hello,

I have been looking into your post and I created a sample project for you following your scenario and everything seems to work ok on my side. If the sample doesn’t satisfies all your needs feel free to modify it, so it reproduces your behavior and send it back to me for further investigation.

Looking forward for your reply.

The sample works great. The only problem now is that in my custom style the Return/Enter key causes the entire control to disappear. Any ideas? I notice in the non-styled one, the return key is simply not accepted.

Hello,

I am just checking the progress of this issue and was wondering if you managed to achieve your goal or if you need any further assistance on the matter. 

Hello,

I have modified the sample I sent you before, so now it works correctly. Basically I removed a Trigger, which was setting the Visibility to collapsed when the control is focused and not in edit mode, which happens when the Enter is pressed. Please let me know if this helps you or you need further assistance on this matter.

Looking forward for your reply.
