 Topic: GENERAL: XAML Markup & System Colors
Posted: 26 May 2008 at 10:53pm |
Hi,
Is it possible to use system colours in Markup for Foreground & Background properties? I've tried:
Foreground="{x:Static SystemColors.ControlLightLightColor}"
|
As I've seen in some XAML on the web, but it didn't work.
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
You just need brush:
Background="{x:Static SystemColors.ControlLightLightBrush}"

Oleg, I have one further question- Is it possible to use the same system colours as the TaskDialog control? For example, I'm interested in knowing what the system colour of the MainInstructionText is.
Thanks.
