Adjust dropdown arrow margin of WPF TreeView - c#

I have a TreeView which simplified is defined as
<TreeView ItemsSource="{Binding TreeItems}">
<TreeView.Resources>
<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type models:MyModel}">
<Border Margin="{Binding Margin}" >
<Grid>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Name}" Margin="3,3,3,3" />
</Grid>
</Border>
</DataTemplate>
</TreeView.Resources>
</TreeView>
It looks like this
As you can see due to the Margin, which is variable, there is space between the items. The problem is the dropdown arrow. It is not centered on the element. Well, it is centered on the element ignoring the margin. How do I adjust the arrow?

Your XAML markup is both incomplete and incorrect: the DataTemplate should be a HierarchicalDataTemplate and it should be placed in a <TreeView.ItemTemplate> tag. This doesn't apply after your edit.
You can apply the margin to the complete TreeViewItem content including the dropdown arrow:
<TreeView ItemsSource="{Binding Items}">
<TreeView.ItemContainerStyle>
<Style TargetType="TreeViewItem">
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="{Binding Margin}"/>
</Style>
</TreeView.ItemContainerStyle>
<TreeView.ItemTemplate>
<HierarchicalDataTemplate ItemsSource="{Binding SubItems}">
<Border>
<Grid>
<TextBlock Margin="3,3,3,3"/>
</Grid>
</Border>
</HierarchicalDataTemplate>
</TreeView.ItemTemplate>
</TreeView>

Yes, I know the style below is too lengthy, but give it a try.
Just put it in a separate resource dictionary and merge it.
<TreeView ItemsSource="{Binding TreeItems}" ItemContainerStyle="{StaticResource CenteredExpanderTreeViewItemStyle}">
<TreeView.Resources>
<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type models:MyModel}">
<Border Margin="{Binding Margin}" >
<Grid>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Name}" Margin="3,3,3,3" />
</Grid>
</Border>
</DataTemplate>
</TreeView.Resources>
</TreeView>

Use given style for TreeViewItem like give below
<Style TargetType="TreeViewItem" BasedOn="{StaticResource {x:Type TreeViewItem}}">
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="3,3,3,3"></Setter>
</Style>
Hope this help.

To add a margin to the ToggleButton in a TreeView, you have to add a custom ControlTemplate. There are several good tutorials on MSDN, for example here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/de-de/library/ms788727(v=vs.85).aspx
I stripped one example down to the necessary elements to match your requirements. Please note, that the ToggleButton is this example is not styled at all, so it appears a normal Button would do. But I am sure, you find several good examples on how to style this Button in a way that suites you the best.
The code:
<Window.Resources>
<Style x:Key="TreeViewItemStyle" TargetType="{x:Type TreeViewItem}">
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type TreeViewItem}">
<Grid Margin="{Binding Margin}">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition MinWidth="20" Width="Auto"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="Auto"/>
<RowDefinition Height="*"></RowDefinition>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<ToggleButton Grid.Column="0" x:Name="Expander" ClickMode="Press" IsChecked="{Binding IsExpanded, RelativeSource={RelativeSource TemplatedParent}}" />
<Border x:Name="Bd" BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}" BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}" Background="{TemplateBinding Background}" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="1" Padding="{TemplateBinding Padding}" SnapsToDevicePixels="true">
<ContentPresenter x:Name="PART_Header" ContentSource="Header" HorizontalAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}" SnapsToDevicePixels="{TemplateBinding SnapsToDevicePixels}"/>
</Border>
<ItemsPresenter x:Name="ItemsHost" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="1" Margin="-10,0,0,0"/>
</Grid>
<ControlTemplate.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="IsExpanded" Value="false">
<Setter Property="Visibility" TargetName="ItemsHost" Value="Collapsed"/>
</Trigger>
<Trigger Property="HasItems" Value="false">
<Setter Property="Visibility" TargetName="Expander" Value="Hidden"/>
</Trigger>
<Trigger Property="IsSelected" Value="true">
<Setter Property="Background" TargetName="Bd" Value="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey}}"/>
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.HighlightTextBrushKey}}"/>
</Trigger>
<MultiTrigger>
<MultiTrigger.Conditions>
<Condition Property="IsSelected" Value="true"/>
<Condition Property="IsSelectionActive" Value="false"/>
</MultiTrigger.Conditions>
<Setter Property="Background" TargetName="Bd" Value="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.ControlBrushKey}}"/>
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.ControlTextBrushKey}}"/>
</MultiTrigger>
<Trigger Property="IsEnabled" Value="false">
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.GrayTextBrushKey}}"/>
</Trigger>
</ControlTemplate.Triggers>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
<Style.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="VirtualizingStackPanel.IsVirtualizing" Value="true">
<Setter Property="ItemsPanel">
<Setter.Value>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<VirtualizingStackPanel/>
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</Setter.Value>

<TreeView ItemsSource="{Binding TreeItems}" ItemContainerStyle="{StaticResource TreeViewItemStyle}">
<TreeView.Resources>
<HierarchicalDataTemplate DataType="{x:Type library:MyModel}" ItemsSource="{Binding Children}" >
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}"></TextBlock>
</HierarchicalDataTemplate>
</TreeView.Resources>
</TreeView>

You should be able to do just this:
<Style TargetType="{x:Type TreeViewItem}" BasedOn="{StaticResource {x:Type TreeViewItem}}">
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="0,0,0,0" />
<!--Or edit Padding if Margin doesn't work-->
</Style>
It will use default style of a TreeViewItem and edit only defined properties. If you use explicitly defined style for TreeViewItem, use BaseOn="{StaticResource [YourStyleKey]}" (without [ ]).
If you need some more advanced styling I'd suggest you to use Blend to get the ControlTemplate of a TreeViewItem, then just edit it to your needs, without changing too much (keep in mind that names of controls used as a template may have a crucial meaning, so be careful what you are editing).
If you don't know how to use Blend to get your control's template, here is a simple tutorial described in a documentation of Telerik controls (don't worry, it works the same for all controls). You just need to create copy of a TreeViewItem ControlTemplate, paste it to your application and you are good to go (editing).
By using Blend you can get templates of all building blocks of a TreeView control and make them look like you want them to. You just need to do some digging.

WPF Cannot make the passwordbox element corners rounded

I am trying to to get my PasswordBox corners rounded to make it look more modern. I have successfully done so with my button and TexBlock. However attempting to do so with my PasswordBox does not yield the same results that I desire.
The xaml code for the PasswordBox looks like this
<PasswordBox
Grid.Column="1"
Grid.Row="5"
x:Name="paswordinput"
Margin="170,0,0,0">
<PasswordBox.Resources>
<Style TargetType="Border">
<Setter Property="CornerRadius" Value="8"></Setter>
</Style>
</PasswordBox.Resources>
</PasswordBox>
the same code worked for my TextBox and my Button. Any help would greatly be appreciated!
The PasswordBox control clears the Style of the Border so you should set the local value of the CornerRadius property in the template:
<PasswordBox
Grid.Column="1"
Grid.Row="5"
x:Name="paswordinput"
Margin="170,0,0,0">
<PasswordBox.Style>
<Style TargetType="{x:Type PasswordBox}">
<Style.Resources>
<Style TargetType="Border">
<Setter Property="CornerRadius" Value="8" />
</Style>
</Style.Resources>
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type PasswordBox}">
<Border x:Name="border" CornerRadius="8" BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}" BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}" Background="{TemplateBinding Background}" SnapsToDevicePixels="True">
<ScrollViewer x:Name="PART_ContentHost" Focusable="false" HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Hidden" VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Hidden"/>
</Border>

<Trigger Property="IsEnabled" Value="false">
<Setter Property="Opacity" TargetName="border" Value="0.56"/>
</Trigger>

<Setter Property="BorderBrush" TargetName="border" Value="#FF7EB4EA"/>
</Trigger>
<Trigger Property="IsKeyboardFocused" Value="true">

</Trigger>
</ControlTemplate.Triggers>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
<Style.Triggers>
<MultiTrigger>
<MultiTrigger.Conditions>
<Condition Property="IsInactiveSelectionHighlightEnabled" Value="true"/>
<Condition Property="IsSelectionActive" Value="false"/>
</MultiTrigger.Conditions>
<Setter Property="SelectionBrush" Value="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.InactiveSelectionHighlightBrushKey}}"/>
</MultiTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</PasswordBox.Style>
</PasswordBox>
Hope this blog post will help - https://www.kailashsblogs.com/2017/01/round-corner-passwordbox-in-wpf.html
Use the below code -
<PasswordBox Margin="10" Height="50" Width="200">
<PasswordBox.Template>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="PasswordBox">
<Border CornerRadius="10" BorderBrush="Gray" BorderThickness="1" />
</ControlTemplate>
</PasswordBox.Template>
</PasswordBox>
You could also try to use the following code to set rounded corners for Password. For more details, please refer to here.
<PasswordBox x:Name="paswordinput" Width="100" Height="50">
<PasswordBox.Resources>
<Style TargetType="PasswordBox">
<Setter Property="Template" >
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate>
<Border CornerRadius="10" BorderBrush="Gray" BorderThickness="2" />
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
</PasswordBox.Resources>
</PasswordBox>

Treeview Toggle Button Style working only for Parent Node and not for Child Nodes

I have a treeview, for which I wrote the style template of treeview in App.xaml, as I need to apply the style in two or three treeviews in my application. Now my problem is that the togglebutton style works for parent and not for child nodes.
Here for the togglebutton collapse and expand, i added two images(
Resources/Images/arrowexpand.png
and
Resources/Images/arrowcollapse.png
It is working perfectly with parent nodes, but not with child and subchild nodes.
For the child and subchild nodes, the default triangle button comes.
I didn't use MVVM. I don't know where I am going wrong

I want the arrow button to be for the child items and subchild items. Please tell me where I am wrong
I found out the Solution. Actually I am trying to apply the styles for the derived classes of the treeview item. So only my style was not working.
What I did was I just added this style statement in my Constructor of the derived Class
Style = (Style)FindResource(typeof(TreeViewItem));
Then the style was applied to all the items in the treeview.

The problem is that the hover effect is really terrible. In fact, if the user goes on the TreeviewItem the effect should affect only the relative children and not the whole wrapper.
How can I solve this problem and make the hover effect fall only on the single element, parent or child?
Thank you so much and have a good day everyone
I suppose you are using the HierarchicalDataTemplate for your items.
In that case, the 'terrible' hover effect is actually working exactly as you specify it. E.g. the Sergio item will contain other sub-items. When you hover on Alessandro, the Sergio item actually contains the mouse too, because this Sergio item is that large and contains all the other sub-items, including Alessandro.
You have two options now.
Either do it in your data template, something like:
<HierarchicalDataTemplate ItemsSource="{Binding SubItems}">
<TextBlock x:Name="HeaderText" Text="{Binding Name}"/>
<HierarchicalDataTemplate.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="IsMouseOver" Value="True">
<Setter TargetName="HeaderText" Property="Background" Value="Red"/>
</Trigger>
</HierarchicalDataTemplate.Triggers>
</HierarchicalDataTemplate>
Or set the color not on the grid, but on the header only:
<Trigger Property="IsMouseOver" Value="true" SourceName="Bd">
<Setter Property="Cursor" Value="Hand" />
<Setter TargetName="Bd" Property="Background" Value="#e6f2fa" />
</Trigger>
Note that I added SourceName="Bd" to the trigger: we only want to change the color when the corresponding header contains the mouse cursor.

Styling Multiple Menus in WPF

I'm new to WPF and am trying to figure out how to customize menus for a Windows 7 touch screen application. I'm using the xaml below that was taken from another question on StackOverflow to style one of the menus. I now want to style another menu that will be used in a different way. How would I style another menu of the same type?
If the answer should be simple / something I should be able to figure out, please post a link to where I can read on how to do this type of thing. I've been reviewing MSDN for a while now and while I'm reading all sorts of stuff I already know, I'm not seeing anything helpful for me here. (Sorry, just discouraged by the constant battle to find basic information I need to complete a simple task.)

Give your styles different keys:
<Style TargetType="ContextMenu" x:Key="MyStyle1">
</Style>
<Style TargetType="ContextMenu" x:Key="MyStyle2">
</Style>
You then need to specify which style you want your ContextMenu to use
<ContextMenu Style="{StaticResource MyStyle1}"></ContextMenu>
<ContextMenu Style="{StaticResource MyStyle2}"></ContextMenu>
If you had any shared style for these ContextMenus, you could do this:
<Style TargetType="ContextMenu" x:Key="BaseStyle"></Style
<Style TargetType="ContextMenu" x:Key="MyStyle1" BasedOn="{StaticResource BaseStyle}">
</Style>
<Style TargetType="ContextMenu" x:Key="MyStyle2" BasedOn="{StaticResource BaseStyle}">
</Style>
MyStyle1 and MyStyle2 would then inherit any styles from BaseStyle
All the information I provided could be found here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms745683(v=vs.110).aspx
I ended up defining the styles for the child objects in the styles style.resources.

How to change WPF ComboBox SelectedText BackGround Color?

I have a Combobox in WPF-MVVM and i have styled the combobox with changes in the popdown box and textbox of combobox.
When i scroll the combobox listitem thier background is pink is what i have chnaged. But after selecting a item from the combobox list, the selected value in combobox item has blue background. which is the default for a combobbox in both Windows Form and WPF.
See the image for more details.
How can i change that selectedtext background color in the combobox textbox control
The combobox has
IsEditable=True property set
You can do this:
<ComboBox.Resources>
<!--Selected color when the ComboBox is focused-->
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey}" Color="Yellow" />
<!--Selected color when the ComboBox is not focused-->
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.ControlBrushKey}" Color="Yellow" />
<!--selected text-->
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightTextBrushKey}" Color="Yellow" />
</ComboBox.Resources>
(tested on ListBox but should work)
Another way is setting the ItemContainerStyle property of the ComboBox, and have a trigger depended on the current ComboBoxItem selection state:
<ComboBox>
<ComboBox.Resources>
<Style TargetType="TextBlock">
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding IsSelected, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType=ComboBoxItem}}" Value="True">
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="White" />
</Trigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</ComboBox.Resources>
<ComboBox.ItemContainerStyle>
<Style TargetType="ComboBoxItem" x:Key="ContainerStyle">
<Style.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="IsSelected" Value="True">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Red" />
</Trigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</ComboBox.ItemContainerStyle>
</ComboBox>

In your PART_EditableTextBox the SelectionBrush property controls this background for the selected item. In the code below I set it to be transparent so it will not highlight.
<TextBox x:Name="PART_EditableTextBox"
Margin="3,3,18,3"
HorizontalAlignment="Left"
VerticalAlignment="Center"
Background="Transparent"
Focusable="True"
SelectionBrush="Transparent"
Foreground="{TemplateBinding Foreground}"
IsReadOnly="{TemplateBinding IsReadOnly}"
Style="{x:Null}"
Template="{StaticResource ComboBoxTextBox}"
Visibility="Visible" />
