Run this sample

The example brush named overlayGradient is a RadialGradientBrush defined as a XAML resource in the App.xaml file:

<Application.Resources>
    <!-- Gradient for ChildWindow overlay. -->
    <RadialGradientBrush x:Key="overlayGradient">
        <GradientStop Color="#FFA3A7B9" Offset="0"/>
        <GradientStop Color="#FF3F3E4B" Offset="1"/>
        <GradientStop Color="#FF7B98C1" Offset="0.457"/>
    </RadialGradientBrush>
</Application.Resources>

The following shows how to set the OverlayBrush in XAML:

  Silverlight 4 only. In Silverlight 3, you must use individual XAML namespace

<sdk:ChildWindow x:Class="ChildWindowSplash.SplashWindow"

           HasCloseButton="False"
           OverlayBrush="{StaticResource overlayGradient}"
           OverlayOpacity="0.85">
