I am fairly new to WPF, and I am trying to make a custom button where it changes to another specified colour when you hover over it. I have done this with partial success; the only problem is that only the bottom part of the button actually triggers the colour change.
Red highlighted area is the approximate hitbox. (not the long red strip, that's just decoration)
<!-- Button Markup-->
<Button Margin="4,0,4,0" >
<Image Source="{StaticResource closeImg}"></Image>
</Button>
<!-- Button style -->
<Style TargetType="{x:Type Button}">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="#FF2B2B2B"/>
<Setter Property="HorizontalAlignment" Value="Right"/>
<Setter Property="Width" Value="28px"/>
<Setter Property="Height" Value="28px"/>
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type Button}">
<Border Background="{TemplateBinding Background}">
<ContentPresenter HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
</Border>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
<Style.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="IsMouseOver" Value="True">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Red"/>
</Trigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
I've found that this was a slight quirk with the debug function with WPF and the WindowChrome class. This is fixed by adding the following to the style:
<Setter Property="WindowChrome.IsHitTestVisibleInChrome" Value="True"></Setter>
