I am trying to implement style for TabControl along with TabItem like below Images:
The Style should make below things visible:
- List item
- White Background for TabControl and selected TabItem with Dropshadow Effect.
- When any TabItem is not selected, then the TabItem text color should turn to gray.
What I have achieved till now:
- Able to divide width of TabControl to accommodate TabItem items with equal Sizes using TabSizeConverter converter.
- Able to change background and with of TabControl and TabItems. But not able to achieve Dropshadow effect.
- Below is my Style for TabItem:
<Setter Property="Padding" Value="0"/>
<Setter Property="IsTabStop" Value="False"/>
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{StaticResource color_MediumGray}"/>
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="34"/>
<Setter Property="FontFamily" Value="Resources/Fonts/#HelveticaNeueMed" />
<Setter Property="Width">
<Setter.Value>
<MultiBinding Converter="{StaticResource tabSizeConverter}">
`<Binding RelativeSource="{RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor,` AncestorType={x:Type TabControl}}" />
<Binding RelativeSource="{RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type TabControl}}" Path="ActualWidth" />
</MultiBinding>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type TabItem}">
<Border x:Name="Chrome"
BorderThickness="30,0"
BorderBrush="{StaticResource color_Transparent}"
Background="{StaticResource color_LightGray}"
Padding="0" Margin="0">
<ContentPresenter ContentSource="Header"
HorizontalAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}"
VerticalAlignment="{TemplateBinding VerticalContentAlignment}"/>
</Border>
<ControlTemplate.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="Selector.IsSelected" Value="True">
<Setter TargetName="Chrome" Property="BorderThickness" Value="0"/>
<Setter TargetName="Chrome" Property="Background" Value="{StaticResource color_White}"/>
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{StaticResource color_Purple}"/>
</Trigger>
</ControlTemplate.Triggers>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
If anyone can help me acheving TabControl with such style would be a great help. Thanks in advance.
