Vista - Button reflection and style problems

Hi,

How to make button in my code to have it self reflected and, when i put
mouse over it, i'd like to change it's height to, let's say - 100.

I've tried using styles but i didn't had much luck :-)

Here is my XAML:

<Canvas Height="280" Width="800" HorizontalAlignment="Center"
Name="Canvas1" Background="Transparent" VerticalAlignment="Top"
DockPanel.Dock="Top" >
<!--CETVRTI BUTTON-->

<Button
Name ="btnCetvrti"
Canvas.Left ="606"
Canvas.Top ="53"
Height ="173"
Width ="129"
BorderBrush="#FF538DE5"
VerticalContentAlignment ="Top" >
<StackPanel >
<Image Height ="87" Width ="115" HorizontalAlignment="Left"
VerticalAlignment="Top" Source="/Images/tab_04.jpg"/>
<TextBlock VerticalAlignment ="Top" Margin="0,0,0,25" FontWeight
="Bold" FontSize ="10" TextAlignment="Left" Foreground
="#FF3c62a5">Help and Support</TextBlock>
<Image Height ="32" Width ="32" HorizontalAlignment="Center"
VerticalAlignment="Bottom" Source="/Images/redo_32.gif"/>
</StackPanel>

<Button.Background>
<LinearGradientBrush EndPoint="1,1" StartPoint="0,1" Opacity="1">
<LinearGradientBrush.GradientStops>
<GradientStop Offset="0" Color="#FF6297E3" />
<GradientStop Offset="0.075" Color="#FF9DC5F8" />
<GradientStop Offset="0.5" Color="#FFC6DDFD" />
<GradientStop Offset="0.925" Color="#FF9DC5F8" />
<GradientStop Offset="1" Color="#FF6297E3" />
</LinearGradientBrush.GradientStops>
</LinearGradientBrush>
</Button.Background>

</Button>

</Canvas>

Vibor:
The reason your Mouse over trigger doesn't change the Height property for
you is you have already set the Height property explicitly on the Button
element itself. The value takes precedent then Style/Trigger. If you need
to have a default Height value for the Button, set it in the Style, then your
trigger will work. Something likes below:

<Style TargetType="{x:Type Button}">
<Setter Property="Width" Value="25" />
<Style.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="Button.IsMouseOver" Value="true">
<Setter Property="Width" Value="125"/>
</Trigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
