If a user closes the slide description by clicking the close button there is no way to re-open it without reloading the page/control.

I'd like to see an "info" button added to the toggle button area that turns the slide description on and off.

I went ahead and made these changes and I've attached a zip file with the modified files. A description of the changes in in the discussion board section.

Here's another (less elegant, but simpler) solution that actually met my needs perfectly. In SlideDescription.cs, simply remove these lines from the CloseButtonElement_Click method:
        if (RootElement != null)
        {
            RootElement.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed;
        }
Now the behavior is that when the user clicks the close button, the description field is hidden, but moving the mouse out of the image and then back into it will bring it right back. That was exactly what I wanted the behavior to be in the first place.

andrewmo, any chance you could add the customized theme files to uploaded file set?
