One Side rounded corner buttons in WPF?

In the Project, there are two adjacent buttons.
The style should make the outer side of the two buttons in rounded corner buttons in WPF. Here is the button image how they should look
The below solution XAML style code makes both sides rounded. But I need the outer side rounded only.

Style with template is blocking the text in WPF

I'm trying to create a template for my buttons that have:
Border corner radius
Background as gradient
Change border color on hover
So far I got here:
<Window.Resources>
<Style TargetType="Button" x:Key="aimDark">
<Setter Property="VerticalAlignment" Value="Top" />
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="5,5,5,0" />
<Setter Property="Height" Value="20" />
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="#0e0e0e" />
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="Button">
<Border
CornerRadius="4"
BorderBrush="#000000"
BorderThickness="1">
<Border.Background>
<LinearGradientBrush StartPoint="0,0" EndPoint="0,1">
<GradientStop Color="#006d23" Offset="0" />
<GradientStop Color="#006d23" Offset="0.05" />
<GradientStop Color="#00c741" Offset="0.45" />
<GradientStop Color="#00c741" Offset="1" />
</LinearGradientBrush>
</Border.Background>
<RenderOptions.EdgeMode>Aliased</RenderOptions.EdgeMode>
</Border>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
</Window.Resources>
<Grid>
<Button Content="Test" Name="btn01" Style="{StaticResource aimDark}" />
</Grid>
The Problem:
First my Content in the button doesn't appear, in fact there isn't text been render in my button.
And I don't know how to change only the border color in the Hover Event.

In ControlTemplate you should specify ContentPresenter to display the Content of a Button.
<Window.Resources>
<Style TargetType="Button" x:Key="aimDark">
<Setter Property="VerticalAlignment" Value="Top" />
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="5,5,5,0" />
<Setter Property="Height" Value="20" />
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="#0e0e0e" />
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="Button">
<Border
CornerRadius="4"
BorderBrush="#000000"
BorderThickness="1">
<Border.Background>
<LinearGradientBrush StartPoint="0,0" EndPoint="0,1">
<GradientStop Color="#006d23" Offset="0" />
<GradientStop Color="#006d23" Offset="0.05" />
<GradientStop Color="#00c741" Offset="0.45" />
<GradientStop Color="#00c741" Offset="1" />
</LinearGradientBrush>
</Border.Background>
<RenderOptions.EdgeMode>Aliased</RenderOptions.EdgeMode>
<ContentPresenter Content="{TemplateBinding Content}" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
</Border>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
</Window.Resources>

The template that you created does not have a ContentPresenter, and that's required in order to show the content (text or other). I suggest you start from the default Button template and make changes as you need.

You need a ContentPresenter to make the content of the button appear.
Also if you define a name in ControlTemplate>Border you can modify it when a action is trigger like this:
<Style x:Key="mylayout" TargetType="Button">
<Setter Property="VerticalAlignment" Value="Top" />
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="5,5,5,0" />
<Setter Property="Height" Value="20" />
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="#949494" />
<Setter Property="Background" Value="the_gradient" />
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="Button">
<Border CornerRadius="4" BorderBrush="#000000" BorderThickness="1" Background="{TemplateBinding Background}" Name="border">
<ContentPresenter Content="{TemplateBinding Content}" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
</Border>
<ControlTemplate.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="IsMouseOver" Value="True">
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" TargetName="border" Value="#e9eceb" />
</Trigger>
</ControlTemplate.Triggers>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>

How to display tooltip value in WPF?

In WPF, I created a rectangle like this:
<ResourceDictionary xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:s="clr-namespace:DiagramDesigner"

x:Class="GeoOvwSample.RectangleGeometryRoundedCornerExample"

<LinearGradientBrush.GradientStops>
<GradientStop Color="#FAFBE9" Offset="0" />
<GradientStop Color="Orange" Offset="1" />
</LinearGradientBrush.GradientStops>
</LinearGradientBrush>
<Brush x:Key="ItemStroke1">#ACADCD</Brush>
<LinearGradientBrush x:Key="ItemBrush1" StartPoint="0,0" EndPoint="0,1" >
<GradientStop Color="#FEFEFE" Offset="0"/>
<GradientStop Color="#BDBEDE" Offset="1"/>
</LinearGradientBrush>
<Style x:Key="FlowChartRectangleStyle" TargetType="Rectangle">
<Setter Property="Fill" Value="{StaticResource ItemBrush}"/>
<Setter Property="Stroke" Value="{StaticResource ItemStroke}"/>
<Setter Property="StrokeThickness" Value="1"/>
<Setter Property="StrokeLineJoin" Value="Round"/>
<Setter Property="Stretch" Value="Fill"/>
<Setter Property="IsHitTestVisible" Value="False"/>
<Setter Property="SnapsToDevicePixels" Value="True"/>
</Style>
<Style x:Key="Data" TargetType="Rectangle" BasedOn="{StaticResource FlowChartRectangleStyle}">
</Style>
<Style x:Key="Data_DragThumb" TargetType="Rectangle" BasedOn="{StaticResource Data}">
<Setter Property="IsHitTestVisible" Value="true"/>
<Setter Property="Height" Value="300"/>
<Setter Property="Width" Value="200"/>
<Setter Property="Tag" Value="DataShape" />
</Style>
<s:Toolbox x:Key="FlowChartStencils" ItemSize="100,90" SnapsToDevicePixels="True"
ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled">
<ItemsControl.Items>
<Rectangle Style="{StaticResource Data}" ToolTip="DataTest" StrokeThickness="2">
<s:DesignerItem.DragThumbTemplate>
<ControlTemplate>
<Rectangle Style="{StaticResource Data_DragThumb}" x:Name="DataShape" Tag="DataShapeTag" />
</ControlTemplate>
</s:DesignerItem.DragThumbTemplate>
</Rectangle>
</ItemsControl.Items>
</s:Toolbox>
</ResourceDictionary>
This displays a rectangle on the panel, and I can select and drag it in my GUI. Now I want to create a kind of textblock on the shape so that it displays its tooltip value, and thus the tooltip value appears together with the shape all together. I tried to create the textblock and bind it with the rectangle shape but somehow my code is not correct. How to do it? Or is there a simpler method? Thank you.

You can simply add the TextBlock into any container control with (but after) the Rectangle element and then data bind the value of the Rectangle.ToolTip to the TextBlock.Text property. Try something like this:
<StackPanel>
<Rectangle Name="Rectangle" Style="{StaticResource Data}" ToolTip="DataTest"
StrokeThickness="2" />
<TextBlock Text="{Binding ToolTip, ElementName=Rectangle}" />
</StackPanel>

change property of a control in an extended style wpf

I have this style for a button:
<Style x:Key="ButtonStyle1" TargetType="{x:Type local:ButtonExt}">
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type local:ButtonExt}">
<Grid Name="grid" Margin="0,0,0,0">
<Rectangle Name="rectangle" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch">
<Rectangle.Fill>
<LinearGradientBrush StartPoint="0,0" EndPoint="1,0.5">
<GradientStop Offset="1" Color="{DynamicResource button_background_gradient1}" />
<GradientStop Offset="0" Color="#FF004F96" />
</LinearGradientBrush>
</Rectangle.Fill>
<Rectangle.Effect>
<DropShadowEffect BlurRadius="3" Opacity="0.4" ShadowDepth="6" />
</Rectangle.Effect>
</Rectangle>
<Rectangle Width="0.7" Margin="0,0,43,1" HorizontalAlignment="Right" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" Stroke="#FF434343">
<Rectangle.Fill>
<LinearGradientBrush StartPoint="0,0" EndPoint="1,0.5">
<GradientStop Offset="0" Color="#FFF7F7F7" />
<GradientStop Offset="1" Color="#FFD6D6D6" />
</LinearGradientBrush>
</Rectangle.Fill>
</Rectangle>
</Grid>
<ControlTemplate.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="IsFocused" Value="True" />
<Trigger Property="IsDefaulted" Value="True" />
<Trigger Property="Button.IsPressed" Value="True">
<Setter TargetName="grid" Property="Margin" Value="2,2,-1,-1" />
<Setter TargetName="rectangle" Property="Effect" Value="{x:Null}"/>
</Trigger>
<Trigger Property="IsMouseOver" Value="True"/>
<Trigger Property="IsPressed" Value="True" />
<Trigger Property="IsEnabled" Value="False"/>
</ControlTemplate.Triggers>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
and another style based on this style:
<Style x:Key="ButtonStyle2" BasedOn="{StaticResource ButtonStyle1}">
<Setter Property="Rectangle.Fill">
<Setter.Value>
In the first style, I have two rectangles. In the second style, which is based on style 1, I would like to change the property of just one rectangle (which I named it "rectangle"). How can I do that?

Expose a property for the rectangle's fill in the ButtonEx class.
In the template, use {TemplateBinding} to bind the Fill to this new property.
In the derived style, set a new value to this property.

Change selection-color of WPF ListViewItem

I have a ListView containing some ListViewItems. By default, selecting items makes their background to some deep blue. I would like to apply a style such that selecting an item does not change its look.
In my xaml I already achieved this:
<Style TargetType="ListViewItem">
<Style.Resources>
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey}" Color="Transparent"/>
</Style.Resources>
</Style>
Unfortunately, this does not do the trick. It just simply makes the selection white instead of blue.
Does anyone have an idea?
Best wishes,
Christian
EDIT:
Sample Code:
<Window.Resources>
<Style TargetType="ListViewItem">
<Style.Resources>
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightTextBrushKey}" Color="Black"/>
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey}" Color="Transparent"/>
</Style.Resources>
</Style>
</Window.Resources>
<ListView x:Name="lvTestRun" ItemsSource="{Binding Path=TestRunData}" Margin="177,26,8,53.277" SelectionMode="Multiple">
<ListView.View>
<GridView>
<GridViewColumn Header="Status"/>
<GridViewColumn Header="Duration"/>
<GridViewColumn Header="Start Time"/>
<GridViewColumn Header="End Time"/>
</GridView>
</ListView.View>
</ListView>
In order to reproduce this, you may have to set the background color of a single ListViewItem to something like green or red.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by white instead of blue. When a ListViewItem is selected the foreground and background is changed by a trigger. To change the foreground of a ListViewItem you can use this
<ListView ...>
<ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
<Style TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}">
<Style.Resources>
<!-- Foreground for Selected ListViewItem -->
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightTextBrushKey}"
Color="Black"/>
<!-- Background for Selected ListViewItem -->
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey}"
Color="Transparent"/>
</Style.Resources>
</Style>
</ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
...
</ListView>
Update
Try this for re-templating. I removed all triggers for selected
<ListView ...>
<ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
<Style TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}">
<Style.Resources>
<LinearGradientBrush x:Key="ListItemHoverFill" EndPoint="0,1" StartPoint="0,0">
<GradientStop Color="#FFF1FBFF" Offset="0"/>
<GradientStop Color="#FFD5F1FE" Offset="1"/>
</LinearGradientBrush>
</Style.Resources>
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}">
<Border CornerRadius="2" SnapsToDevicePixels="True"
BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}"
BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}"
Background="{TemplateBinding Background}">
<Border Name="InnerBorder" CornerRadius="1" BorderThickness="1">
<Grid>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition MaxHeight="11" />
<RowDefinition />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Rectangle Name="UpperHighlight" Visibility="Collapsed" Fill="#75FFFFFF" />
<GridViewRowPresenter Grid.RowSpan="2"
VerticalAlignment="{TemplateBinding VerticalContentAlignment}"
SnapsToDevicePixels="{TemplateBinding SnapsToDevicePixels}" />
</Grid>
</Border>
</Border>
<ControlTemplate.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="IsMouseOver" Value="True">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="{StaticResource ListItemHoverFill}" />
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="#FFCCF0FF" />
<Setter TargetName="UpperHighlight" Property="Visibility" Value="Visible" />
</Trigger>
<!--<Trigger Property="IsSelected" Value="True">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="{StaticResource ListItemSelectedFill}" />
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="#FF98DDFB" />
<Setter TargetName="InnerBorder" Property="BorderBrush" Value="#80FFFFFF" />
<Setter TargetName="UpperHighlight" Property="Visibility" Value="Visible" />
<Setter TargetName="UpperHighlight" Property="Fill" Value="#40FFFFFF" />
</Trigger>-->
<!--<MultiTrigger>
<MultiTrigger.Conditions>
<Condition Property="IsSelected" Value="True" />
<Condition Property="Selector.IsSelectionActive" Value="False" />
</MultiTrigger.Conditions>
<Setter Property="Background" Value="{StaticResource ListItemSelectedInactiveFill}" />
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="#FFCFCFCF" />
</MultiTrigger>-->
<!--<MultiTrigger>
<MultiTrigger.Conditions>
<Condition Property="IsSelected" Value="True" />
<Condition Property="IsMouseOver" Value="True" />
</MultiTrigger.Conditions>
<Setter Property="Background" Value="{StaticResource ListItemSelectedHoverFill}" />
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="#FF98DDFB" />
</MultiTrigger>-->
<Trigger Property="IsEnabled" Value="False">
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.GrayTextBrushKey}}" />
</Trigger>
</ControlTemplate.Triggers>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
</ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
</ListView>

Have a look at this: http://www.wpftutorial.net/ListBoxSelectionBackground.html or http://dotnetbutchering.blogspot.be/2009/08/how-to-set-wpf-listview-selected-item.html -the same principle applies for the ListView control.
For example, the following triggers based code should do the trick and imitate no change of colour when the selection is changed.
<Style TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}">
<Style.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="IsSelected" Value="true" >
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="YourForegroundColour" />
<Setter Property="Background" Value="YourBackgroundColour" />
</Trigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>

What I normally do is define that color in the listview's resource collection. Then for each item I can define a template with the colors I like and when I select I don't get the blue.
I do think you should have some sort of indication that an item is selected though.

For also disabling inactive style,
<Style TargetType="ListViewItem">
<Style.Resources>
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey}" Color="Transparent" />
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.InactiveSelectionHighlightBrushKey}" Color="Transparent" />
</Style.Resources>
</Style>
