How to navigate to other page with button in WPF
button, c#, wpf, xaml
Solution
Solution to my own question:
I feel a bit silly providing a solution to my own question but thanks to Jasti's link I was able to sort my code out. As he had only posted a comment, I can't mark it as an answer, so here is the solution.
I changed the NavigationWindow to a Window and inserted:
<DockPanel>
<Frame x:Name="_NavigationFrame" NavigationUIVisibility="Hidden" />
</DockPanel>
And within the constructor of the MainWindow.xaml.cs I added:
_NavigationFrame.Navigate(new Page1());
Then the last step was to adjust the button event handler to:
this.NavigationService.Navigate(new Uri("Pages/Page2.xaml", UriKind.Relative));
Problem
I have a second .xaml page set up under the name `Page2.xaml` and I want to make it so that when my button is clicked, the user is taken to `Page2.xaml` I have this for my button inside of my `Page1.xaml`: ``` <Grid> <Button x:Name="localModeBtn" Style="{StaticResource MainButtonStyle}" Content="local mode" Click="localModeBtn_Click" /> </Grid> ``` And for the button event handler: ``` private void localModeBtn_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { Uri uri = new Uri("Page2.xaml", UriKind.Relative); this.NavigationService.Navigate(uri); } ``` Upon clicking the button I receive an error that says "Cannot locate resource `page2.xaml`" The thing is that `Page2.xaml` is in the same folder as `Pag1.xaml` so I can't see where I've gone wrong?
