I got an issue that my ToggleSwitch is white like this picture below shows:
I want to style the white part to be black. How do I do that?
I've changed the default style but no option seems to change it?
Here is my style for it:
<Style x:Key="ToggleSwitchStyle" TargetType="toolkit:ToggleSwitch">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="{StaticResource PhoneBackgroundBrush}"/>
<Setter Property="FontFamily" Value="{StaticResource PhoneFontFamilyLight}"/>
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="{StaticResource PhoneFontSizeLarge}"/>

You need to define the following Style
<Style x:Key="ToggleSwitchButtonStyle1" TargetType="toolkitPrimitives:ToggleSwitchButton">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="{StaticResource PhoneBackgroundBrush}"/>
<Setter Property="IsTabStop" Value="False"/>
<Setter Property="SwitchForeground" Value="{StaticResource PhoneAccentBrush}"/>
<Setter Property="Template">

And link it to the ToggleSwitch primitive in the style you attached in your post:
....
<toolkitPrimitives:ToggleSwitchButton x:Name="Switch" Background="#467CCD" Grid.Column="1" Margin="-22,-29,-24,-28" Opacity="{TemplateBinding Opacity}" Grid.RowSpan="2" SwitchForeground="Black" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" Style="{StaticResource ToggleSwitchButtonStyle1}"/>
....
I edited the ThumbCenter Background property. You can play with other colors if you wish!

I'd like to have the DatePicker prompt the user with a different message than "Select a date" for my DatePicker. Preferably I'd have a resx entry that would determine the value displayed, so is there a property of the DatePicker I can set to display a different opening message? I can deal with the resx portion of the problem myself, I just need help figuring out what property to set.
I've tried using datepicker.Text = "Enter a date", just as a test, but it does not display the string.
Here is the xaml markup for the DatePicker:
<DatePicker Height="28" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="515,55.661,0,0" Name="dtpStartDate" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="180" FontSize="16" Background="White" SelectedDateFormat="Short" TabIndex="20"/>
You could define an implicit DatePickerTextBox style where you hide the ContentControl named "PART_Watermark" and add a TextBlock with your custom text:
<DatePicker Height="28" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="515,55.661,0,0" Name="dtpStartDate"
VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="180" FontSize="16" Background="White"
SelectedDateFormat="Short" TabIndex="20">

To display the value of a resource that is defined in a .resx file, you can set the Text property of the TextBlock using the x:Static markup extension like this where "AppResources" is the name of the .resx file and "HelloWorld" is the name of the string resource in the file:
<TextBlock Text="{x:Static local:AppResources.HelloWorld}" />
The only problem is when I choose a date, the watermark stays and is overlaid by the date. Is there any way to fix this?
Good point. You could apply a Style to the TextBlock and use a DataTrigger to bind to the SelectedDate property of the DatePicker:
<TextBlock Text="{x:Static local:AppResources.HelloWorld}">
<TextBlock.Style>
<Style TargetType="TextBlock">
<Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Collapsed" />
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding SelectedDate, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType=DatePicker}}"
Value="{x:Null}">
<Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Visible" />
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</TextBlock.Style>
</TextBlock>
I have a ListView where I am changing the foreground color of selected item:

How can I change the foreground color of TextBlock of selected item in my case ?
I have tried to use:
<ColorAnimation Duration="0" Storyboard.TargetName="tblock"
Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Foreground).(SolidColorBrush.Color)"
To="White"/>
but got the exception:
Exception = {"No installed components were detected.\r\n\r\nCannot resolve TargetName tblock."}
You are getting the exception because style for ListViewItem cannot know about the structure/elements in its item template.
The easiest way is to redefine the ListViewItem container style. You need to specify also VisualState for "Selected" state within "SelectionStates". There you can animate foreground property of some element (ContentPresenter does not have it, so I used ContentControl).
<ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
<Style TargetType="ListViewItem">
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="ListViewItem">
<Grid>
<VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="CommonStates">
<VisualState x:Name="Normal"/>
</VisualStateGroup>
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="SelectionStates">
<VisualState x:Name="Selected">
<Storyboard>
<ColorAnimation Duration="0" Storyboard.TargetName="contentControl" Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Control.Foreground).(SolidColorBrush.Color)" To="GreenYellow"/>
</Storyboard>

</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="SelectedUnfocused">

I have an existing Pivot header template I am using, but it is not giving me the effect I need. I need the currently selected PivotItem to have a blue foreground and white background, while all other pivot items have a standard disabled foreground and background look. Currently below I have what I believe is everything except the blue foreground on the selected PivotItem, but I cannot figure out how to apply a foreground correctly to only the selected item?
<Style x:Key="PivotHeaderItemStyle1" TargetType="Primitives:PivotHeaderItem">

Change the <ContentPresenter> to a <TextBlock>

<Setter Property="Padding" Value="10,0,10,0"/>
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="0"/>

</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
</VisualStateGroup>
</VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<Border x:Name="border_highlight" Background="{TemplateBinding Background}" >
<!--<ContentPresenter x:Name="contentPresenter" ContentTemplate="{TemplateBinding ContentTemplate}" Content="{TemplateBinding Content}" HorizontalAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}" Margin="{TemplateBinding Padding}" Opacity="{StaticResource PhonePivotUnselectedItemOpacity}"/>-->
<TextBlock x:Name="contentPresenter" Foreground="{TemplateBinding Foreground}" Text="{TemplateBinding Content}" HorizontalAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}" Margin="{TemplateBinding Padding}" Opacity="{StaticResource PhonePivotUnselectedItemOpacity}"></TextBlock>

Then you can animate the Foreground. Here's a screenshot of the above code. With Selected Color = Blue and Unselected Color = Green. You will need to add back in your background animation though.
#Teysz, I think that with Windows 10 UWP you better start from the default style for PivotItemHeader and make a copy of that in the ..Resources section of your XAML file. The default style cannot be inserted by Visual Studio 2015 so you have to get it yourself from:
%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Windows Kits\10\DesignTime\CommonConfiguration\Neutral\UAP\10.0.10240.0\Generic\generic.xaml
I found this at http://blog.hompus.nl/2015/09/04/responsive-pivot-headers-in-universal-windows-platform-apps/
I am using the Silverlight charting control: System.Windows.Controls.DataVisualization.Charting and I wish to remove the gradient that is on the bar where the color is solid at the bottom and gets lighter towards the top, so what I am looking for is a solid bar and not with a gradient.
I have managed to get the original style from Blend for the chart control and added the following to my own style:
<Setter Property="PlotAreaStyle">
<Setter.Value>
<Style TargetType="Grid">
<Setter Property="HorizontalAlignment" Value="Left"></Setter>
<Setter Property="Background" >
<Setter.Value>
<LinearGradientBrush>
<GradientStop Offset="0" Color="Transparent"/>
<GradientStop Color="Black" Offset="0"/>
</LinearGradientBrush>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
Can someone please help me as I am new to Silverlight and have spent many hours trying to find a solution, I am using this site as a last resort.
This is the code I am using for the chart control.
<charting:Chart Loaded="Loaded" Width="{Binding ElementName=Graph, Path=GraphWidth}" Grid.Column="0" BorderBrush="Transparent" x:Name="SummaryGraph"
Style="{StaticResource SummaryGraphStyle}"
VerticalAlignment="Stretch" HorizontalAlignment="Center">
<charting:ColumnSeries>
<charting:ColumnSeries.DataPointStyle>
<Style TargetType="charting:ColumnDataPoint">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Black" />
</Style>
</charting:ColumnSeries.DataPointStyle>
</charting:ColumnSeries>
<charting:Chart.Axes>
<DataVisualization:LinearAxisWithAxisLine AxisLabelStyle="{StaticResource YAxisLabel}" FontStyle="Normal" FontWeight="Bold" Title="{Binding ElementName=Graph, Path=YAxisTitle}" Orientation="Y" />
<charting:CategoryAxis AxisLabelStyle="{StaticResource XAxisLabel}" FontSize="{Binding ElementName=Graph, Path=XAxisLabelFontSize}" BorderThickness="0" Background="Transparent" Orientation="X" />
</charting:Chart.Axes>
</charting:Chart>
Many Thanks,
I am now using this code with the style provided:

Here is the full DataPointStyle. The only modification is adding a visibility collapsed to the gradient rectangle: <Rectangle Visibility="Collapsed"> (located near the bottom)
I'm trying to get my map control to fill the available height no matter what screen resolution.
I want the bottom margin to leave exactly enough space for a buttom or text.
But I've been trying variations of solution from other questions but none work. Like setting vertical alignment to stretch, height to Auto.
I want to anchor the edges to the sides somehow, but is that even possible?
Any other ideas?

You need to use blend so that you can get the default style, create a copy and edit the Container that holds the DataTemplate of your HubSection.
I recommend that your change the setters of:
<Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Left"/>
<Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Top"/>
to
<Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Stretch"/>
<Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Stretch"/>
Here is the default style for the HubSection:
<Style x:Key="HubSectionStyle1" TargetType="HubSection">
<Setter Property="HorizontalAlignment" Value="Stretch"/>
<Setter Property="VerticalAlignment" Value="Stretch"/>
<Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Left"/>
<Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Top"/>
<Setter Property="Padding" Value="12,10,12,0"/>
<Setter Property="IsTabStop" Value="False"/>
<Setter Property="UseSystemFocusVisuals" Value="True"/>
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
