Hello,
I'd like to change the Background color of an editable ComboBox when it is disabled. I've been trying to customize the control template but I have only managed to change its Foreground color.
Any hint on how to make this change?
Thank you in advance for your help
Do you mean of the actual check box UI element? To do that you would need to completely retemplate the checkbox itself because the default template uses a hardcoded piece of rendering logic called BulletChrome. The default template is:
You would essentially need to replace the BulletChrome part of that with your own visuals and template bind something there to the background color. Then all you do is use a property trigger for IsDisabled=true on the CheckBox itself to set that property.
HTH,
Drew
Thank you very much for your hint Drew.
I was referring to the ComboBox control (not to CheckBox), but in any case your comments put me in the right direction. I found that the template part involved is within the ComboBoxEditableTemplate default ControlTemplate:
<Microsoft_Windows_Themes:ListBoxChrome x:Name="Border" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" Background="{TemplateBinding Background}" BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}" BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}" RenderFocused="{TemplateBinding IsKeyboardFocusWithin}" RenderMouseOver="{TemplateBinding IsMouseOver}"/>
