In Silverlight an AccordionItem is inside another one . When the inner one is selected, it can not expand its parent more which is already expanded to show its own content.

I tried to get around it by templating but I was unlucky. Does any one has a solution for it [prefer a solution without code]?

            </StackPanel>
        </layoutToolkit:AccordionItem>
    </layoutToolkit:Accordion>
</Grid>

Is it a bug or I am in a wrong path?
