Hello, but that won't work because the default template for the edit box controls use triggers to alter the backgrounds, which override what you are trying to do. You would need to clone our default style/template, alter them to your needs, and put the resulting implicit style in your app's Resources.

There also is a simpler way if you just want to change background brushes. Per the samples in our Themes section, you can redefine brush asset resources. We use these kinds of brushes for backgrounds, so redefining them in your app's Resources would get the updated versions into all your edit controls:

{DynamicResource {x:Static themes:AssetResourceKeys.EditBackgroundNormalBrushKey}}

{DynamicResource {x:Static themes:AssetResourceKeys.EditBackgroundDisabledBrushKey}}

{DynamicResource {x:Static themes:AssetResourceKeys.EditBackgroundFocusedBrushKey}}

{DynamicResource {x:Static themes:AssetResourceKeys.EditBackgroundHoverBrushKey}}

Hello,

We do provide optional Styles for the native WPF controls to keep everything looking consistent across your app. They are not enabled by default but you can activate that feature if you set ThemeManager.AreNativeThemesEnabled to true.
