Custom template for radio button and using Visual State - xaml

This is a custom style that i am using for a radio button.The concept is to flip the foreground and background color between checked and unchecked state. Everything works fine until i move mouse over a checked button and move it out.
The foreground switches back to Primary Color.
TO Clarify this it what i think is happening.
When the button is clicked, the checked state gets active.
When you move the pointer over, PointerOver state gets active and changes the foreground to WhiteTextAndIcons color.
When the pointer moves out the foreground return to default which is PrimaryColor, hence it matches the background.
What i need is , if the state is checked then the foreground should not default back, when pointer is moved in or out. Is this possible via style?
This is the workaround i am using, but i want to know what am i doing wrong here.
Workaround:
private void MainPage_PointerExited(object sender, PointerRoutedEventArgs e)
{
if(sender is RadioButton)
{
var radio = sender as RadioButton;
if(radio.IsChecked.HasValue && radio.IsChecked.Value)
{
radio.IsChecked = false;
radio.IsChecked = true;
}
}
}

Non clickable checkbox when applying style

I have made plenty of styles and they all work (so the issue is not with the ResourceDictionary or binding to the style), but when i try to use this style for a checkbox it goes into a state where the user can't interact with it.
I'm attempting to set a style on a standard CheckBox:
<CheckBox Content="Some Cool Checkbox" Style="{StaticResource MaterialDesignCheckBox}" />
This is the style I'm trying to apply:
<Style x:Key="MaterialDesignCheckBox" TargetType="CheckBox">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="{ThemeResource CheckBoxBackgroundUnchecked}" />
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{ThemeResource CheckBoxForegroundUnchecked}" />
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="{ThemeResource CheckBoxBorderBrushUnchecked}" />

<Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Top" />
<Setter Property="FontFamily" Value="{ThemeResource ContentControlThemeFontFamily}" />
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="{ThemeResource ControlContentThemeFontSize}" />
<Setter Property="MinWidth" Value="120" />
<Setter Property="MinHeight" Value="32" />
<Setter Property="UseSystemFocusVisuals" Value="True" />
<Setter Property="FocusVisualMargin" Value="-7,-3,-7,-3" />

</Grid>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
When applying the style the checkbox becomes unclickable, but with the correct look:
So in short i need help with figuring out how to keep the look but also make it clickable.
Non clickable checkbox when applying style
For add the clickable status, you need to specify the visual behavior for Checkbox. For example,
<VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="CheckStates">
<VisualState x:Name="Checked">
<VisualState.Setters>
<Setter Target="CheckGlyph.Opacity" Value="1"/>
</VisualState.Setters>
<!-- This Storyboard is equivalent to the Setter. -->
<!--<Storyboard>
<DoubleAnimation Duration="0" To="1"
Storyboard.TargetName="CheckGlyph" Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity"/>
</Storyboard>-->
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="Unchecked"/>
<VisualState x:Name="Indeterminate">
<VisualState.Setters>
<Setter Target="IndeterminateGlyph.Opacity" Value="1"/>
</VisualState.Setters>
<!-- This Storyboard is equivalent to the Setter. -->
<!--<Storyboard>
<DoubleAnimation Duration="0" To="1"
Storyboard.TargetName="IndeterminateGlyph" Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity"/>
</Storyboard>-->
</VisualState>
</VisualStateGroup>
</VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
For detail tutorial please refer Specify the visual behavior of a control.
Solved the issue by doing this:
<Style x:Key="MaterialDesignCheckBox" TargetType="CheckBox">

How to implement animation used by the little rectangle in XAML controls gallery app?

Animation is pretty simple! In idle state -- the highlighter rectangle sits in one of the selected rows. But as soon as another row is selected, the rectangle grows in length(almost like its made of elastic) and ends up in another row.
For detailed animation, check out the XAML control gallery app!
The NavigationView new control provides a collapsible navigation menu for top-level navigation in your app and it contain highlighter rectangle sits animation. Please note it only works in Windows 10 Fall Creators Update. You could use it to realize hamburg menu with highlight animation directly like following.
Usage
<NavigationView Loaded="NavigationView_Loaded" Margin="0,12,0,0" Grid.Row="1" SelectionChanged="NavigationView_SelectionChanged"
x:Name="nvSample"
IsSettingsVisible="{Binding ElementName=settingsCheck,Path=IsChecked}" IsTabStop="False"
Header="This is header text.">
<NavigationView.MenuItems>
<NavigationViewItem Icon="Play" Content="Menu Item1" Tag="SamplePage1" />
<NavigationViewItemSeparator/>
<NavigationViewItem Icon="Save" Content="Menu Item2" Tag="SamplePage2" />
<NavigationViewItem Icon="Refresh" Content="Menu Item3" Tag="SamplePage3" />
</NavigationView.MenuItems>
<Frame x:Name="contentFrame">
</Frame>
</NavigationView>
For more you could refer Navigation view official document.
I have found SelectionIndicator in the NavigationViewItem stlye. You could find detail about SelectionIndicator. Unfortunately, The implementation of the animation is not in this style.

Update
For SelectionIndicator animation, you could split it into multiple parts Vertical translation, Height transformation Collapsed Scale and Visible. So you could create a animation storyboard to describe both of them and bind the storyboard with different VisualState.
And #Vijay Nirmal also provide inspiration from Continuity Tab that you could refer.

How to keep radiobutton width from expanding when text is bolded on click

I have these two radio buttons, and on click i am making the text inside the radio button bold. When this happens, the width of the radio button increases by a few pixels. How can I keep this from happening? In this example the "Content" inside the radio button is hard coded, but this wont be hard coded in the future, so giving the buttons a set width is not an option. Any ideas on how i can accomplish this?

Just place this invisible TextBlock next to your ContentPresenter.

HorizontalAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}"
TextWrapping="Wrap"

Keep PointerOver from changing text color of Checked button

I am having issue trying to have a set of radio buttons behave as buttons, and my goal is to have the text color of the buttons change on hover, and to have it go back to original color and be bolded on click. I am implementing recomendations on a previous similar question here but I seem to be doing something wrong because I am not getting the desired behavior. When I hover over the buttons the PointerOver is still changing the text color of a "Checked" button

I think you are almost there except some minor padding issues.

I want to have a custom rounded button, when focused it should change the color inside the border control.

On xbox the 'normal', 'pressed' visualstates work fine, but i can't use the 'focus' visual state, meaning i cant make it change it's color when using the gamepad. When i use the left stick to the button, the button default black border appears but the 'focus' visual state is not triggered.
