I have created a Style for circular button in windows application. I am using this style to make the buttons appear circular. Code for the Style is below:
<Style x:Key="CircularButton" TargetType="Button">
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="Button">
<Grid>
<Ellipse Stroke="#FFF8F1F1" />
<Image Width="50" Height="50" />
</Grid>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
I am using like below :
<Button x:Name="btnFacebook" Style="{StaticResource CircularButton}" Click="btnFacebook_Click" Visibility="Visible" Margin="10,0" />
Now I have many buttons on the page that need to be circular,but need to have different background images.Is there any way to set the image source of this style for different buttons.I have tried code like below:
<Button x:Name="btnTwitter" Style="{StaticResource CircularButton}" Click="btnTwitter_Click" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Margin="10,0">
<ControlTemplate>
<Image Source="Images/appbar.social.twitter.png"/>
</ControlTemplate>
</Button>
Also I have tried placing the image directly inside the button content , or using the template binding for showing the image inside the button.Is there any way of doing this without creating different styles for different buttons.
something like this:
<Style x:Key="CircularButton" TargetType="Button">
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="Button">
<Grid>
<Ellipse Stroke="#FFF8F1F1" />
<Image Width="50" Height="50" Source="{TemplateBinding Content}" />
</Grid>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
<Button x:Name="btnTwitter" Style="{StaticResource CircularButton}" Click="btnTwitter_Click" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Margin="10,0">
<BitmapImage UriSource="Images/appbar.social.twitter.png"/>
</Button>

I have a button that uses my own theme by using style= I want the theme code to pick up and use the Background color property but everything I've tried always fetches black #000000 from the XAML code.
I use it like this:
<Button Background="#844eff" Style="{StaticResource PosButtonTheme}" Content="Return
Sale" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" Margin="0,44,0,0" />
My theme code looks like this:
<ResourceDictionary xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml">
<Style BasedOn="{StaticResource {x:Type Button}}"
TargetType="{x:Type Button}"
x:Key="PosButtonTheme">
<Style.Setters>
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="Button">
<StackPanel
Margin="0,0,0,0">
<Border Width="62" Height="62">
<Border.Background>
<LinearGradientBrush StartPoint ="0,0" EndPoint ="1,2">
<GradientStop Color= "{TemplateBinding Property=Background}" Offset="0.0"/>
<GradientStop Color= "#FFFFAF" Offset="1"/>
</LinearGradientBrush>
</Border.Background>
<Border.Clip>
<RectangleGeometry RadiusX="7" RadiusY="10" Rect="0,0,62,62"/>
</Border.Clip>
<Grid>
<StackPanel>
<TextBlock Text= "{TemplateBinding Property=Content}" TextAlignment="Center" Foreground="White" FontSize="14" FontFamily="Barlow Semi Condensed SemiBold" FontWeight="SemiBold" Margin=" 0,15,0,0"/>
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
</Border>
</StackPanel>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style.Setters>
</Style>
The "{TemplateBinding Property=Content}" works fine in the TextBlock but "{TemplateBinding Property=Background}" seems to do nothing its always black or #000000
Any ideas?
You code is ok, so I think you miss to set the BackGround property.
This is what I tried:
Background = Brushes.Red;
and then
Background = Brushes.Blue;

I would like to change ComboBox placeholder color in my demo UWP app. So I tried to create static resources:
<UserControl.Resources>
<Style x:Key="ComboBoxStyle" TargetType="ComboBox">
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="ComboBox">
<ContentControl x:Name="PlaceholderTextContentPresenter"
Content="{TemplateBinding PlaceholderText}" />
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
</UserControl.Resources>
Using:
<ComboBox Grid.Row="1" Foreground="White" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Background="Transparent"
PlaceholderText="Выбор оператора" Style="{StaticResource ComboBoxStyle}">
<x:String>iPhone 11</x:String>
<x:String>iPhone 12</x:String>
<x:String>Xiaomi Red Mi</x:String>
<x:String>Samsung Galaxy 10</x:String>
<ComboBox.Resources>
<Style TargetType="ContentControl">
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="White" />
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="15" />
</Style>
</ComboBox.Resources>
</ComboBox>
Foreground in placeholder changed correctly but ComboBox is disappeared. How can I will change ComboBox placeholder foreground?
How to change ComboBox placeholder foreground in UWP
UWP ComboBox contains PlaceholderForeground propety, if you want to chage the default one, you just need to give it specific value like the following. And please not the property avaiable in version 16299 or higher.
<ComboBox
Grid.Row="1"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
Background="Transparent"
Foreground="White"
PlaceholderText="Выбор оператора"
PlaceholderForeground="DarkBlue">
<x:String>iPhone 11</x:String>
<x:String>iPhone 12</x:String>
<x:String>Xiaomi Red Mi</x:String>
<x:String>Samsung Galaxy 10</x:String>
</ComboBox>
I am trying to create a button Style that I can use for a "Lookup" button throughout my UWP app. However, the icon only appears on the first button on the screen. I tried this solution using templates, but it is not working for me. Thanks for the help.
Code:
<Page.Resources>
<ControlTemplate x:Key="FindSymbolTemplate">
<SymbolIcon Symbol="Find" Foreground="White" />
</ControlTemplate>
<Style TargetType="Button" x:Key="LookupButton">
<Setter Property="Content">
<Setter.Value>
<ContentControl Template="{StaticResource FindSymbolTemplate}" />
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
</Page.Resources>
....
<Button x:Name="tourNumLookup"
Style="{StaticResource LookupButton}"
Grid.Column="1"
Margin="10,0"
VerticalAlignment="Center" />
....
<Button x:Name="customerIdLookup"
Style="{StaticResource LookupButton}"
VerticalAlignment="Center"
Grid.Column="1"
Grid.Row="1"
Margin="10,0" />
The two buttons in the UI. Only the first has the SymbolIcon content.
#Romasz's solution absolutely works, but what if you want a lightly different Foreground on the SymbolIcon inside another Button?
Here's a potentially more flexible way that I normally go with.
First let's create a base Style that holds some default values for all the icons.
<Style x:Key="Style-Icon-Base"
TargetType="ContentControl">
<!-- If you don't specify the Foreground, it will use its ancestor's -->
<!--<Setter Property="Foreground"
Value="White" />-->
<Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment"
Value="Center" />
<Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment"
Value="Center" />
<Setter Property="Width"
Value="20" />
<Setter Property="Height"
Value="20" />
<Setter Property="Padding"
Value="0" />
</Style>
Then we create a new icon Style which inherits from the one above. Note within the ControlTemplate I have used TemplateBinding to make property values dynamic. TemplateBinding isn't available inside a DataTemplate.
<Style x:Key="Style-Icon-Find"
BasedOn="{StaticResource Style-Icon-Base}"
TargetType="ContentControl">
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="ContentControl">
<!--
'cause you cannot change the size of the SymbolIcon, we insert a Viewbox here,
otherwise you don't need it.
-->
<Viewbox Margin="{TemplateBinding Padding}"
HorizontalAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}"
VerticalAlignment="{TemplateBinding VerticalContentAlignment}">
<SymbolIcon Symbol="Find"
Foreground="{TemplateBinding Foreground}" />
</Viewbox>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
This way you have created a highly reusable icon Style, to use it, have a look at the following Buttons:
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal"
HorizontalAlignment="Center">
<Button Margin="4"
Padding="8"
BorderBrush="LightBlue">
<ContentControl Width="36"
Height="36"
Foreground="DarkCyan"
Style="{StaticResource Style-Icon-Find}" />
</Button>
<!-- Note how I defined the Foreground at the Button level and it flows down to the icon -->
<Button Foreground="DarkGoldenrod"
Margin="4">
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<ContentControl Style="{StaticResource Style-Icon-Find}"
Width="16"
Height="16" />
<TextBlock Text="Search"
VerticalAlignment="Center"
Margin="8,0,0,0" />
</StackPanel>
</Button>
<Button Margin="4"
Padding="4">
<ContentControl Style="{StaticResource Style-Icon-Find}" />
</Button>
</StackPanel>
And they look like:
Generally UI elements can be used once (or saying different - have only one parent) - this is probably why it only works for the first button in your case. One solution may be to define DataTemplate and use it as ContentTemplate, so each button creates its own icon:
<Page.Resources>
<DataTemplate x:Key="FindTemplate">
<SymbolIcon Symbol="Find" Foreground="White" />
</DataTemplate>
</Page.Resources>
...
<Button x:Name="tourNumLookup" ContentTemplate="{StaticResource FindTemplate}"
Grid.Column="1" Margin="10,0" VerticalAlignment="Center" />
<Button x:Name="customerIdLookup" ContentTemplate="{StaticResource FindTemplate}"
VerticalAlignment="Center" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="1" Margin="10,0" />
You don't need to create ControlTemplate to reuse the icon. You can simply put this SymbolIcon to the resource dictionary and use as StaticResource for the buttons' Content.
<Page.Resources>
<SymbolIcon x:Key="FindSymbol" Symbol="Find" Foreground="White" />
</Page.Resources>
<Button x:Name="tourNumLookup"
Content="{StaticResource FindSymbol}"
Grid.Column="1"
Margin="10,0"
VerticalAlignment="Center" />
<Button x:Name="customerIdLookup"
Content="{StaticResource FindSymbol}"
VerticalAlignment="Center"
Grid.Column="1"
Grid.Row="1"
Margin="10,0" />
UPDATE
BTW this is possibly a bug in the UWP platform, because I tried the following code and only the first Button rendered the icon at desing time and none of the at runtime.
<Page.Resources>
<SymbolIcon x:Key="FindSymbol" Symbol="Find" Foreground="White" />
<Style TargetType="Button" x:Key="LookupButton">
<Setter Property="Content" Value="{StaticResource FindSymbol}"/>
</Style>
</Page.Resources>
<StackPanel>
<Button x:Name="tourNumLookup"
Style="{StaticResource LookupButton}"
Margin="10,0"
VerticalAlignment="Center" />
<Button x:Name="customerIdLookup"
Style="{StaticResource LookupButton}"
VerticalAlignment="Center"
Margin="10,0" />
</StackPanel>
I tried to assign the Setter's Value directly but I got the same result. And also tried with FontIcon.
I want to display a list of checkboxes within a tooltip on Silverlight when the mouse hovers on an image.
The data is a list of string properties.
The problem: The checkbox text content disappears, only the checked boxes appear.
How to show both the box and its text content? Thanks.
Tooltip display
<ToolTipService.ToolTip >
<ToolTip d:DataContext="{d:DesignInstance Type=local:Data}">
<ListBox x:Name="LstTemp">
<!--<ListBox.ItemContainerStyle>
<Style TargetType="ListBoxItem">
<Setter Property="HorizontalAlignment" Value="{Binding Input}"/>
</Style>
</ListBox.ItemContainerStyle>-->
<ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<CheckBox IsChecked="true" IsEnabled="False" Content="{Binding Input}" />
</DataTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>
</ToolTip>
</ToolTipService.ToolTip>
</Image>
</Grid>
The code behind
Public Class Data
Public Property Data1 As String
Public Property Data2 As String
Public Property Input As New List(Of String)
End Class
I found the solution, here is the code for a dynamic list of checkboxes within a tooltip
<Image Height="114" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="129,48,0,0" Name="Image1" Stretch="Fill" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="170" Source="/Tooltip1;component/Images/Desert.jpg" >
<ToolTipService.ToolTip >
<ToolTip d:DataContext="{d:DesignInstance Type=local:Data}">
<ListBox x:Name="LstTemp">
<ListBox.ItemContainerStyle>
<Style TargetType="ListBoxItem">
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="ListBoxItem">
<Grid Margin="2">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
<ColumnDefinition />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<CheckBox IsChecked="true" IsEnabled="false"/>
<ContentPresenter
Grid.Column="1"
Margin="2,0,0,0" />
</Grid>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
</ListBox.ItemContainerStyle>
</ListBox>
</ToolTip>
</ToolTipService.ToolTip>
</Image>
I want to create a grid of images without any margin between them. I tried to achieve this through a GridView. If there is an easier way, please let me know.
I found this answers on StackOverflow:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/10492464
https://stackoverflow.com/a/23817931/5739170
And ended up with this code:
<Page.Resources>
<Style x:Key="MyGridViewItemStyle" TargetType="GridViewItem">
<Setter Property="Padding" Value="0" />
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="0" />
<Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="0" />
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="GridViewItem">
<GridViewItemPresenter ContentMargin="0" Padding="0" Margin="0" BorderThickness="0"/>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
</Page.Resources>
<Grid Background="{ThemeResource ApplicationPageBackgroundThemeBrush}">
<StackPanel>
<GridView ItemsSource="{x:Bind FieldList}" Margin="0,50,0,0" Padding="0" BorderThickness="0" ItemContainerStyle="{StaticResource MyGridViewItemStyle}" IsItemClickEnabled="True" ItemClick="OnItemClick">
<GridView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate x:DataType="data:Field">
<Image Width="20" Height="20" Margin="0" Source="{x:Bind ImagePath}"/>
</DataTemplate>
</GridView.ItemTemplate>
</GridView>
<TextBlock x:Name="text">Hallo!</TextBlock>
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
But there is still a margin left:

I have also tried to use negative margins but when I use them clicks aren't recognized correctly anymore.
How can I remove the margins?
Seems like the GridViewItem has a default MinWidth of 44px.
You can set it to 0 via your GridViewItemStyle:
<Setter Property="MinWidth" Value="0" />
EDIT: it also has a default MinHeight, you might want to set that to 0 as well.
The code below should work:
<GridView.ItemContainerStyle>
<Style TargetType="GridViewItem">
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="0"/>
</Style>
</GridView.ItemContainerStyle>
Your code is good. If you add a Grid in the DataTemplate (with a Background), you will see there is no margin between grids :
<DataTemplate x:DataType="data:Field">
<Grid Background="Red">
<Image Width="20" Height="20" Margin="0" Source="{x:Bind ImagePath}"/>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
Your problem is the following : you set a fixed size for Image control wich all of them is in a container, but the container doesn't have a fixed, so images are centered in the container.
I see two solutions. First is to remove the fixed size for Image control and use Strecth property to fill correctly :
<DataTemplate x:DataType="data:Field">
<Image VerticalAlignment="Stretch"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
Stretch="UniformToFill"
Margin="0"
Source="{x:Bind ImagePath}"/>
</DataTemplate>
For the first solution, you must be sure of the filling behavior of the container. You can do something like :
<GridViewItemPresenter ContentMargin="0"
Padding="0"
Margin="0"
BorderThickness="0"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch" />
The second solution is to set a fixed size on the container directly :
<Style x:Key="MyGridViewItemStyle"
TargetType="GridViewItem">
<Setter Property="Padding"
Value="0" />
<Setter Property="Margin"
Value="0" />
<Setter Property="BorderThickness"
Value="0" />
<Setter Property="Width"
Value="20" />
<Setter Property="Height"
Value="20" />
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="GridViewItem">
<GridViewItemPresenter ContentMargin="0"
Padding="0"
Margin="0"
BorderThickness="0"/>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
