25.1 ComboBoxItem style changed, focused and hovered items use same background brush

WPF Studio, Themes, and Shared Library for WPF Forum

The latest build of this product (v25.1.1) was released 3 months ago, which was before this thread was created.

Hello, there seems to have been a recent style change to ComboBoxItems, perhaps introduced in 25.1
In 24.1, the Selected ComboBoxItem does not have a unique background color
In 25.1, the Selected ComboBox item has the same background brush as a Hovered ComboBoxItem, ListItemBackgroundSelectedFocusedBrushKey
this looks strange especially in a ComboBox with 2 items - the hovered item and selected item both look identical
Was this change intentional?
To fix this I had to override the ControlTemplate chrome states to set the Hover state appropriately and also set the chrome BackgroundHover to use the Hover Brush key

Hi Alex,

Thanks for pointing this out.  We will update the control template to better differentiate between selected and hover states in the next version.
