I've added PresentationFramework.Aero to my App.xaml merged dictionaries, as in...
<Application
x:Class="TestApp.App"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml">
<Application.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary>
<ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
<ResourceDictionary
Source="/PresentationFramework.Aero;component/themes/Aero.NormalColor.xaml" />
<ResourceDictionary
Source="pack://application:,,,/WPFToolkit;component/Themes/Aero.NormalColor.xaml" />
<ResourceDictionary
Source="ButtonResourceDictionary.xaml" />
</ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
</ResourceDictionary>
</Application.Resources>
</Application>
I'm trying to modify the default look of buttons just slightly. I put this style in my ButtonResourceDictionary:
<Style TargetType="Button">
<Setter Property="Padding" Value="3" />
<Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Bold" />
</Style>
All buttons now have the correct padding and bold text, but they look "Classic", not "Aero". How do I fix this style so my buttons all look Aero but also have these minor changes? I would prefer not to have to set the Style
property for every button.
