ToggleButton Has No Unchecked State in UWP - xaml

I am working with Visual States in a ToggleButton template within a Windows 10 UWP app.
I have added an animation for the 'Checked' state so when checked, an icon within the template rotates 90 degrees over 250 milliseconds.
Now I want to animate the icon rotating back to normal over the same 250 millisecond timespan when the ToggleButton is no longer checked.
Problem is, there is no 'Unchecked' state to animate anymore for ToggleButton - so it seems like this is impossible.
Surely I have this wrong somehow - so has anyone managed to animate a ToggleButton moving to the 'Unchecked' state (which apparently no longer exists??????)
Thanks
Dean

As I've tried Normal state seems to mean Unchecked - note also that all states have equivalents ('Normal -> Pressed' and 'Checked -> CheckedPressed'). Basing upon this, I'm able to make a ToggleButton which rotates its Content like this:

As you can see I've also subscribed to VisualStateGroup's CurrentStateChanged event, so it's easier to see how the states are changing.
private void CommonStates_CurrentStateChanged(object sender, VisualStateChangedEventArgs e) =>
Debug.WriteLine($"State changed from {e.OldState?.Name} to: {e.NewState.Name}");

It is better to try using CheckBox as it contains 'Unchecked' states.

Under visual state =Pressed but the content is bold only for a brief second. I would like the selected content to appear bold until deselected .How do I make this persist?
The problem is Pressed state only signify pressed time, if you would like the selected content to appear bold until deselected, please place your ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames into Checked VisualState.

Customizing Radio buttons UWP

I am trying to customize my radio buttons such that the outer ellipse is black and the inner circle fill is black when selected. In addition, i want to also change the font weight of the selected item to bold.
Currently i have the outer ellipse as black and inner circle as black but when i hover over it i can see it change to the default behavior of the button. My code is as follows:

How do i make sure the properties i set are preserved when i hover over the radio buttons and how do i make the selected option appear bold.
i want to also change the font weight of the selected item to bold.
If you want to edit the content font weight when selected, you could add DiscreteObjectKeyFrame into checked VisualState like the following.
<VisualState x:Name="Checked">
<Storyboard>
<DoubleAnimation
Storyboard.TargetName="CheckGlyph"
Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity"
To="1"
Duration="0" />
<DoubleAnimation
Storyboard.TargetName="OuterEllipse"
Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity"
To="0"
Duration="0" />
<DoubleAnimation
Storyboard.TargetName="CheckOuterEllipse"
Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity"
To="1"
Duration="0" />
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetName="ContentPresenter" Storyboard.TargetProperty="FontWeight">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="Bold" />
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
Currently i have the outer ellipse as black and inner circle as black but when i hover over it i can see it change to the default behavior of the button.
During the testing, we have not reproduce this behavior, you could check PointerOver VisualState and edit the matched element background when cursor point over.

and this is what I get:
So how can I correct my code to make this AppBarButton stretch in the CommandBar?
Do you want your AppBarButton looks like following:
If so, you can set the HorizontalAlignment property in your Style and change its Value to Stretch and more important change the value of Width to Auto like:
<Style x:Key="AppBarButtonStyle1" TargetType="AppBarButton">
...
<Setter Property="HorizontalAlignment" Value="Stretch"/>
<Setter Property="Width" Value="Auto" />
...
</Style>

How can I disable tilt animation on GridView/ListView in Win10 Universal app?

It used to be I could cancel the tilt effect on GridView/ListView by editing the item container style and removing the storyboard animations.
However, when I edit the templates now on Win10 Universal apps, I am not seeing any of the storyboards. Where can I cancel the animation at?
Here's the style that's generated for me (and when used, does not disable animation):
<Style x:Key="ListViewItemStyle1" TargetType="ListViewItem">
<Setter Property="FontFamily" Value="{ThemeResource ContentControlThemeFontFamily}"/>
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="{ThemeResource ControlContentThemeFontSize}"/>
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Transparent"/>
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{ThemeResource SystemControlForegroundBaseHighBrush}"/>
<Setter Property="TabNavigation" Value="Local"/>
<Setter Property="IsHoldingEnabled" Value="True"/>
<Setter Property="Padding" Value="12,0,12,0"/>
<Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Left"/>
<Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Center"/>
<Setter Property="MinWidth" Value="{ThemeResource ListViewItemMinWidth}"/>
<Setter Property="MinHeight" Value="{ThemeResource ListViewItemMinHeight}"/>
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="ListViewItem">
<ListViewItemPresenter CheckBrush="{ThemeResource SystemControlForegroundBaseMediumHighBrush}" ContentMargin="{TemplateBinding Padding}" CheckMode="Inline" ContentTransitions="{TemplateBinding ContentTransitions}" CheckBoxBrush="{ThemeResource SystemControlForegroundBaseMediumHighBrush}" DragForeground="{ThemeResource ListViewItemDragForegroundThemeBrush}" DragOpacity="{ThemeResource ListViewItemDragThemeOpacity}" DragBackground="{ThemeResource ListViewItemDragBackgroundThemeBrush}" DisabledOpacity="{ThemeResource ListViewItemDisabledThemeOpacity}" FocusBorderBrush="{ThemeResource SystemControlForegroundAltHighBrush}" FocusSecondaryBorderBrush="{ThemeResource SystemControlForegroundBaseHighBrush}" HorizontalContentAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}" PointerOverForeground="{ThemeResource SystemControlHighlightAltBaseHighBrush}" PressedBackground="{ThemeResource SystemControlHighlightListMediumBrush}" PlaceholderBackground="{ThemeResource ListViewItemPlaceholderBackgroundThemeBrush}" PointerOverBackground="{ThemeResource SystemControlHighlightListLowBrush}" ReorderHintOffset="{ThemeResource ListViewItemReorderHintThemeOffset}" SelectedPressedBackground="{ThemeResource SystemControlHighlightListAccentHighBrush}" SelectionCheckMarkVisualEnabled="True" SelectedForeground="{ThemeResource SystemControlHighlightAltBaseHighBrush}" SelectedPointerOverBackground="{ThemeResource SystemControlHighlightListAccentMediumBrush}" SelectedBackground="{ThemeResource SystemControlHighlightListAccentLowBrush}" VerticalContentAlignment="{TemplateBinding VerticalContentAlignment}"/>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
One way is to block the interaction from the ListViewItem by inserting another Control.
For example, wrap the content inside the ItemTemplate with a Button with the following almost empty style.
<Style x:Key="EmptyButtonStyle" TargetType="Button">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Transparent" />
<Setter Property="HorizontalAlignment" Value="Stretch" />
<Setter Property="VerticalAlignment" Value="Stretch" />
<Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Stretch" />
<Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Stretch" />
<Setter Property="UseSystemFocusVisuals" Value="False" />
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="Button">
<Grid x:Name="RootGrid" Background="{TemplateBinding Background}">
<ContentPresenter x:Name="ContentPresenter" ContentTemplate="{TemplateBinding ContentTemplate}" Content="{TemplateBinding Content}" HorizontalContentAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}" VerticalContentAlignment="{TemplateBinding VerticalContentAlignment}" />
</Grid>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
<DataTemplate x:Name="ListViewItemTemplate">
<Button Style="{StaticResource EmptyButtonStyle}">
<!-- Put your original stuff here -->
</Button>
</DataTemplate>
Simply, you can just comment the ListViewItemPresenter in ListViewContainerStyle or replace it with ContentPresenter. But this will also remove some other effects like PointOver.
Hope this helps.
UPDATE:
When you look at the style of ListBoxItem you will see the full VSM that you can be edited by yourself.
So,replace ListViewItemPresenter in ListViewContainerStylewith this below will remove the tilt animation but keep all of the other effect:
<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}" Background="{TemplateBinding Background}">
<Grid.Resources>
<Style x:Key="BaseContentPresenterStyle" TargetType="ContentPresenter">
<Setter Property="FontFamily" Value="Segoe UI"/>
<Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="SemiBold"/>
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="15"/>
<Setter Property="TextWrapping" Value="Wrap"/>
<Setter Property="LineStackingStrategy" Value="MaxHeight"/>
<Setter Property="TextLineBounds" Value="Full"/>

How to change the placeholdertext color in a combobox

I have been trying hard to find this solution. I will post the same below and it might save a couple of hours for anyone trying this.
Right click the designer to start editing the template.
ComboBox default behavior is -> if there are less than 5 items, then it is a dropdown, else, the options are shown on a separate page to select.
The following is the edited style to customize the ComboBox - "ComboBoxStyle1
I have made 3 changes below (search for the colors in the code snippet)
Foreground="Red" - to change the PlaceholderText color when "options <= 5"
Foreground="PowderBlue" to change the PlaceHolderText color when "options > 5"
ForeGround="Black" - if "options > 5", we tap on combobox and press back key - the storyboard changes the Placeholdertext color back to default. To restrict that, we can use this location to set our color.
