Is there a way to include namespaces in xaml, so I don't need to write an extension?

Question

Is there any way to make “use” in XAML, i.e. declare a namespace and include it in the general xaml scope, so I don't need to write a namespace: Class, just Class.

Answer 1

It is not possible to combine namespaces in XAML, which is equivalent to using C #. XAML is the first XML and adhears format for the XML namespace standard that does not support arbitrary union of namespaces.

However, you can change what the default namespace for the XAML scope is using the xmlns = "..." attribute on the element. The xmlns attribute will change the default namespace for an element and all its contained elements. If you often use the prefix, we recommend temporarily changing the default namespace.
