I have the following style definitions:
<!-- Border -->
<Style x:Key="MyControlBorder" TargetType="{x:Type Border}">
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="DarkKhaki" />
<Setter Property="Background" Value="White" />
<Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="1" />
<Setter Property="CornerRadius" Value="10" />
</Style>
<!-- TextBox -->
<Style x:Key="MyTextBox" TargetType="{x:Type TextBox}">
<Setter Property="Height" Value="30" />
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type TextBoxBase}">
<Border Name="TextBoxBorder" Style="{StaticResource MyControlBorder}">
<ScrollViewer x:Name="PART_ContentHost"/>
</Border>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
<!-- PasswordBox -->
<Style x:Key="MyPasswordBox" TargetType="{x:Type PasswordBox}">
<Setter Property="Height" Value="30" />
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type Control}">
<Border Name="Border" Style="{StaticResource MyControlBorder}">
<ScrollViewer x:Name="PART_ContentHost" />
</Border>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
And the following XAML code:
<Grid>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="*" />
<RowDefinition Height="*" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<TextBox Grid.Row="0" Style="{StaticResource MyTextBox}" />
<PasswordBox Grid.Row="1" Style="{StaticResource MyPasswordBox}" />
</Grid>
Now I got this result:
The TextBox
applies the style correctly, but why does the PasswordBox
not apply the style?
Somehow Border
within ControlTemplate
of PasswordBox
does not take MyControlBorder
style.
When you modify MyPasswordBox
style like this... then it will work.
<Style x:Key="MyPasswordBox" TargetType="{x:Type PasswordBox}">
<Setter Property="Height" Value="30" />
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type Control}">
<Border Name="Border" BorderBrush="DarkKhaki" Background="White" BorderThickness="1" CornerRadius="10">
<ScrollViewer x:Name="PART_ContentHost" />
</Border>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
I know it's not the best solution... but I can't figure out why MyControlBorder
is not applied. It doesn't even work when you get rid of MyTextBox
style. Then you are left only with MyControlBorder
and MyPasswordBox
...it does not work either.
