How to Use the Rich TextBlock Control
To use the Rich TextBlock on your Silverlight page:
<UserControl x:Class="RichTextBlock.Page"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:liquidRichText="clr-namespace:Liquid;assembly=Liquid.RichText"
Width="500" Height="300">
<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White">
<ScrollViewer>
<liquidRichText:RichTextBlock Width="180" RichTextURL="RichText.xml" />
</ScrollViewer>
</Grid>
</UserControl>
In this example we load an XML file containing Rich Text, this is called RichText.xml and is specified in the RichTextURL property. It is important you have this file included in your project.
