Hide/Show bar in WP

Question

How do I add a bar that appears and reappears at the top of a page, something like the one for the adobe reader app?
I have checked other peoples post but all i see is posts about the application bar, and i dont think this can be put on top of a page

Answer 1

There is no built in control for that in WP7 SDK. You may try search for it in other libraries but I think you should just create it by your own (using standard grid/panel items).

If you'd like to show it when standard ApplicationBar is expanded you should subscribe to StateChanged event on ApplicationBar and show/hide your own bar on top.
