Now that's solved, I have an even more ambitious thing to try.

 

I want to turn a DataGrid cell into a colour picker. I have a template
column containing a <Grid> with a TextBlock inside. The grid background is
bound to the colour (via a converter) and I can see a cell value like
#FFFF0000 with a red background. I now have to:

 

1. Display the ARGB value as a known colour (if it corresponds to one).

2. Make the mouse turn to a hand when over the colour cells.

3. Open some sort of colour picker when the colour cells are clicked and get
that value back to the cell and bound property (luckily we're using the C1
kit and I think they have a colour picker).

 

Fun eh?! I estimate 6 hours work. In WinForms it would take 15 minutes, but
I shouldn't get sentimental.
