I mean the old adage of "have your tried turning it off and on again" came from somewhere... 😅 I had just reached out to the team too. Would you still be up for connecting to them and providing some details for them to still investigate a bit?

It's in WCT Labs. Per blog w/ ADO feed here: dev.azure.com/dotnet/Commu... - Search "DependencyProperty" to grab the one for UWP or WinUI. (FYI , there's a service issue some folks are having with consuming the Labs feed directly in NuGet; I've reached out to the @dotnetfoundation.bsky.social.)

Ah, yup! We called out TilesBrush there too. I've pinged it and put it in our milestone for better tracking, as improving samples/docs is on our list of things to get better on top of as well. Just been too many moving parts underneath us this past year, but hopefully getting past that soon.

Hmm, WinUI 3? A lot of the media samples didn't get migrated over for the 8.0 transition, including this one. So, it's probably a gap in our radar. Mind opening up an issue on the repo? First step, would be to migrate the old sample and just see what's happening there. Does 7.1 still work?

Feel free to open a discussion at github.com/CommunityToo... and share your example code and such. We've also been wanting to do some x:Bind helpers for this, but parameter resolution and lack of type conversion makes those slightly less useful when generalized.

Interesting! I guess the MarkupExtension just provides a value back that's the converter instance? Are you just wrapping the converter?

I guess the only concern/drawback to that approach is that you'd be potentially creating a new converter instance for each usage vs. sharing one in the resources.
