title: How do you specify a different base class in .xaml files (Silverlight)?
body: <p>How can you specify a common base class in .xaml files for seperate Silverlight Page classes? I have a few common properties that I would like to share across pages, but I don't know how to do this without manually changing the base class in the .g.cs files each time they are generated.</p>
  
  <p>Is this possible? I assume it is possible, since the ChildControl in the Toolkit, for example, derives from a different class. Am I overlooking something obvious? </p>
