Avalon Dock: How to set LayoutAnchorablePaneControl's BorderBrush

I snooped the desired property and I can change it in real-time:

But I don't know what exactly to set in the code. When I edit the XAML like this:

<dock:DockingManager x:Name="dockManager" ...>
...
     <dock:DockingManager.AnchorablePaneControlStyle>
         <Style TargetType="{x:Type dock:LayoutAnchorablePaneControl}">
             <Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="DarkRed"/>
         </Style>
     </dock:DockingManager.AnchorablePaneControlStyle>
...

I get the border color changed but the rest of behavior is unusable:

Solution

  • I am not get the big picture yet for what you wanna get, but I think you have to edit the Theme.xaml file containing all AvalonDock Styles and have a look there at the following style:

        <Style x:Key="AvalonDock_AnchorablePaneControlStyle" TargetType="{x:Type avalonDockControls:LayoutAnchorablePaneControl}">
    <Setter Property="TabStripPlacement" Value="Bottom" />
    <Setter Property="Padding" Value="0" />
    <Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="0" />
    <Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{Binding Model.Root.Manager.Foreground, RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}}" />
    <Setter Property="Background" Value="{DynamicResource AvalonDock_BaseColor8}" />
    <Setter Property="Template">...

    Then you can see that the Background property is binded to a DynamicResource. You have to change the value of AvalonDock_BaseColor8 resource accordingly to what you want to achieve.
