I would like to style the Tooltip of Textboxes which are used for validation. I'm trying to get a rounded corners Tooltip without sucess. How may I get it from ResourceDictonary?
With the code below, I'm getting the Tooltip text on validation error with a rectangular border. Here is my code:
<ResourceDictionary>
<!-- Textbox with validation capabilities -->
<Style x:Key="ValidableTextBox" TargetType="TextBox">
<Style.Resources>
<Style x:Key="ToolTip" TargetType="ToolTip">
<Setter Property="OverridesDefaultStyle" Value="true" />
<Setter Property="HasDropShadow" Value="True" />
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="ToolTip">
<Border Name="Border" CornerRadius="4" BorderThickness="1" Width="{TemplateBinding Width}" Height="{TemplateBinding Height}">
<ContentPresenter />
</Border>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
</Style.Resources>
<Setter Property="Height" Value="22"/>
<Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Center"/>
<Setter Property="VerticalAlignment" Value="Center"/>
<Style.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="Validation.HasError" Value="true">
<Setter Property="ToolTip" Value="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}, Path=(Validation.Errors)[0].ErrorContent}"/>
</Trigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</ResourceDictionary>
I just realized that BorderBrush property was missing, thanks to Muhammad for he made it working (remove the x:Key="ToolTip"), here is the updated code:
<ResourceDictionary>
<!-- Textbox with validation capabilities -->
<Style x:Key="ValidableTextBox" TargetType="TextBox">
<Style.Resources>
<Style TargetType="ToolTip">
<Setter Property="OverridesDefaultStyle" Value="true" />
<Setter Property="HasDropShadow" Value="True" />
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="ToolTip">
<Border Name="Border" CornerRadius="4" BorderThickness="1" BorderBrush="Red" Width="{TemplateBinding Width}" Height="{TemplateBinding Height}">
<ContentPresenter />
</Border>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
</Style.Resources>
<Setter Property="Height" Value="22"/>
<Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Center"/>
<Setter Property="VerticalAlignment" Value="Center"/>
<Style.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="Validation.HasError" Value="true">
<Setter Property="ToolTip" Value="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}, Path=(Validation.Errors)[0].ErrorContent}"/>
</Trigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</ResourceDictionary>
