C1Accordion and C1AccordionItem ClearStyle Properties

Accordion for WPF supports ComponentOne's new ClearStyle technology that allows you to easily change control colors without having to change control templates. By just setting a few color properties you can quickly style the entire grid.

The following table outlines the brush properties of the C1Accordion control:

 

Brush

Description

Background

Gets or sets the brush of the control’s background.

ExpandedBackground

Gets or sets the brush of the header background that appears when items of the C1Accordion control are expanded.

MouseOverBrush

Gets or sets the System.Windows.Media.Brush used to highlight the control’s C1AccordionItems when it is moused over.

HeaderBackground

Gets or sets the background brush of all headers of all C1AccordionItem headers contained within the C1Accordion control.

 

The following table outlines the brush properties of the C1AccordionItem control:

MouseOverBrush

You can completely change the appearance of the C1Accordion and C1AccordionItem controls by setting a few properties, such as the C1Accordion control’s HeaderBackground property, which sets the background color for every accordion item in a C1Accordion control. For example, if you set the C1Accordion control’s HeaderBackground property to "#FFC500FF", each header in the C1Accordion control would appear similar to the following:

 

 

You can also choose to modify the accordion items independently by setting a C1AccordionItem control’s HeaderBackground property. For example, if you set a the HeaderBackground property of the first accordion item to "#FFC500FF", the control would appear similar to the following:

 

 

It’s that simple with ComponentOne’s ClearStyle technology. For more information on ClearStyle, see the ComponentOne ClearStyle Technology topic.
