In this post David Anson explains
how to make Silverlight Setters better with the help of SetterValueBindingHelper.
Back in May, I mentioned that Silverlight 2 and 3 don't support putting a Binding in the Value of a Setter. I explained why this is useful (ex: MVVM, TreeView expansion, developer/designer separation, etc.) and shared a helper class I wrote to implement the intended functionality on Silverlight. My workaround supported setters for normal DependencyPropertys as well as attached ones, so it covered all the bases. It worked well on both flavors of Silverlight and a bunch of you went off and used SetterValueBindingHelper successfully in your own projects.
