wpfaccessor

Underscores not displayed in WPF


On my whole application, I've some underscores (_) which are not displayed.

It's due to the accessor. But how can I disable it? Application wide? I don't have them on labels, textboxes, ...

Thank you


Solution

  • To disable underscores globally for all labels you can override the default template for labels like this:

    <Style x:Key="{x:Type Label}"
           TargetType="{x:Type Label}">
        <Setter Property="Template">
            <Setter.Value>
                <ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type Label}">
                    <Border Background="{TemplateBinding Background}"
                            BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}"
                            BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}"
                            Padding="{TemplateBinding Padding}"
                            SnapsToDevicePixels="true">
                        <ContentPresenter HorizontalAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}"
                                          VerticalAlignment="{TemplateBinding VerticalContentAlignment}"
                                          RecognizesAccessKey="False"
                                          SnapsToDevicePixels="{TemplateBinding SnapsToDevicePixels}" />
                    </Border>
                    <ControlTemplate.Triggers>
                        <Trigger Property="IsEnabled"
                                 Value="false">
                            <Setter Property="Foreground"
                                    Value="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.GrayTextBrushKey}}" />
                        </Trigger>
                    </ControlTemplate.Triggers>
                </ControlTemplate>
            </Setter.Value>
        </Setter>
    </Style>
    

    It differs from the default template in this line: RecognizesAccessKey="False".

    Put this style in global resources of your application (App.xaml) and your labels will not recognize underscores anymore.
