Button with image and Theme mangaer - WPF Studio, Themes, and Shared Library for WPF Forum

Posted 13 years ago by Mary Fontana - Rudolph Technologies

Version: 12.1.0562

I have a menu to allow selection of theme.

For buttons with an 16x16 image, the image is blurry when theme is set to Classic or HighContrast.

Here is an example I created.

Any suggestions on how to define button?

<DockPanel x:Name="buttonPanel">
            <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Height="30" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Center">
                <Button  Width="24" Height="24" Margin="10,0,0,0"  x:Name="Button1">
            	    <Image Source="Refresh.png"  Width="16" Height="16" />
        	</Button>
                <Button  Width="24" Height="24" Margin="10,0,0,0"  x:Name="Button2" >
                    <Image Source="Refresh.png"  Width="16" Height="16" />
                </Button>
                <Button  Width="24" Height="24" Margin="10,0,0,0"  x:Name="Button3"  >
                    <Image Source="Refresh.png"  Width="16" Height="16" />
                </Button>
            </StackPanel>
            </DockPanel>

 public MainWindow()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            ActiproSoftware.Windows.Themes.ThemeManager.SetAreNativeThemesEnabled(this, true);
            ActiproSoftware.Windows.Themes.ThemeManager.SetTheme(Button1, "Classic");
            ActiproSoftware.Windows.Themes.ThemeManager.SetTheme(Button2, "HighContrast");
            ActiproSoftware.Windows.Themes.ThemeManager.SetTheme(Button3, "Office Blue");
        }

Hi Mary,

Thanks for letting us know. It's due to a padding resource for those two themes. If you add this to your Application Resources until 2012.2 is out, it will work around it:

<Thickness x:Key="{x:Static themes:AssetResourceKeys.ButtonPaddingNormalThicknessKey}">1</Thickness>

Thanks that fixed the display for Button and PopupButton.

but I also see a blurred icon only for those 2 themes in my TreeView.

I define a HierarchicalDataTemplate something like this

<HierarchicalDataTemplate 
	DataType="{x:Type local:MyTreeViewModel}" 
	ItemsSource="{Binding Children}">
        <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" >  
            <Image Source="{Binding MyTypeImage}" Height="16" Width="16" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="0,1,4,1" />

	     <TextBlock Text="{Binding MyName}"  Height="16" Margin="0,1,0,0" />
         </StackPanel> 
</HierarchicalDataTemplate>

Hi Mary,

Sorry but I'm not able to repro the TreeView issue. Could you make a new simple sample project that shows it and e-mail it over to our support address? Please reference this post and rename the .zip file extension so it doesn't get spam blocked. Thanks!
