Password Box Placeholder Text Color - c#

How can I change the color of the placeHolder text of a passwordBox at Windows Phone 8.1? I use this template:

Although I changed the foreground color to white the placeholder text is showing in grey.
In normal textBox placeholder text i shown white as I want. Does anybody know if i have to add some property or something

Just if somebody get stuck in some same situation, to change the placeholder color there is a property tag in the style and there somebody can change the foreground property.
<ContentControl x:Name="PlaceholderTextContentPresenter" Content="{TemplateBinding PlaceholderText}"
Foreground="White"
IsTabStop="False" Margin="{ThemeResource RichEditBoxTextThemeMargin}"
Padding="{TemplateBinding Padding}" Grid.Row="1"/>

C# UWP Richeditbox Zooming content is bugging

So I created a RichEditBox in UWP and made a custom style to set ZoomMode="Enabled" in the Scrollviewer.
After that I zoomed and some lines of the text were gone, or only the half of the text was visible.
Here a short video:
So you can see the text hiding on zoom with Ctrl + mousewheel
Does anybody know if I did anything wrong, or it is a problem of the scrollviewer?
Btw my code:

First of all, the explanation of this behavior is that the text is not gone. They are still in the Scrollviewer but out of the visible area. If you scroll the slider of the Scrollviewer, you should be able to find this text upper left corner.
But I got a different behavior when testing your code in a blank UWP app. When I tried to zoom the RichEditBox, the content of the RichEditBox is zoomed, but they are still visible because the Scrollviewer will automatically relocate itself. When the zoom action is finished, the Scrollviewer will align upper left corner. So the text should be always visible.

Is there a way to customize the default TextBox control in UWP? I need to make the 'X' button smaller

I have this app in UWP that has a TextBox. By some very complicated constraints, I cannot use anything else but the 'native' TextBox.
I need to remove the X button (or to make it as small as possible), be it in XAML or in C#. After my research I could not find anything apart from creating my own usercontrol, but that's not an option. (it doesn't make much sense to explain why).
Any help will be appreciated!
Can you access the TextBox's properties though the form? If so, you could comment out the DeleteButtonStyle like this. Hope it's what you are looking at.
<ControlTemplate TargetType="TextBox">
<Grid>
<Grid.Resources>
<!--
<Style x:Name="DeleteButtonStyle" TargetType="Button">
</Style>
-->
</Grid.Resources>
....
All you need to do is right click on your TextBox, click "Edit Template" and then "Edit a Copy".
This should then give you the full template for the TextBox control in XAML.
Here is a full copy:

Within that code there is a section for the Delete Button and a Font Size of 12 is defined. Simply change this to a smaller number in order to shrink its size then apply the style to your TextBox with the following
<TextBox Style="{StaticResource TextBoxStyle1}" Width="100" Height="50"></TextBox>

Vertically Center Text and Cursor in UWP TextBox

How do I vertically center text in a UWP TextBox?
This is the default UWP style, but this is what comes out:
I just want it to be centered.
It can also be done by modifying the TextBox style as follows:
Right-click on the TextBox, Edit Template => Create a Copy.
At the style look for ScrollViewer x:Name="ContentElement" and ContentControl x:Name="PlaceholderTextContentPresenter" element. Add VerticalAlignment="Center" to both of them.

How to change button image on clicking and again on releasing in windows phone

I want to change image1(let say) on clicking a button, to image2 and again on releasing I want to change it back to image1.
If any body knows please answer me. I am new to windows phone development.
<Button x:Name="MyButton" IsPressed="{Binding MyButtonIsPressed}"></Button>
C#
private bool _myButtonIsPressed;
public bool MyButtonIsPressed {
get{ return _myButtonIsPressed;}
set{
_myButtonIsPressed = value;
if(value==false){
MyButton.Content = ImageWhenReleasing;
}
else{
MyButton.Content = ImageWhenClicking;
}
}
}
I hope this can help you.
Change the Visibility of the images in the visual states of the button.
The style for the button:

Transparent textbox when textbox GotFocussed Windows Phone 8.1?

I need to have transparent textbox, in my WindowsPhone 8.1 Runtime application.
I made Background="Transparent" to the textbox, so it is transparent when it is loaded.
But on focus, background color changed to white. I write the following code, to make it transparent. But it doesn't run.!
<TextBox Background="Transparent" GotFocus="titleBox_GotFocus" />
C#
private void titleBox_GotFocus(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
titleBox.Background = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Transparent);
}
The problem is that when you the TextBox gets focused, the StoryBoard is changing the Background to ThemeResource - the TExtBox by default is designed to do that. Of course you can change it - as you are targetting WP8.1 Runtime, you will have to play with VisualStaes of your TextBox. To say more, you will have to change Focused state:
<VisualState x:Name="Focused">
<Storyboard>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="BorderBrush" Storyboard.TargetName="BorderElement">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="{ThemeResource TextSelectionHighlightColorThemeBrush}"/>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
<DoubleAnimation Duration="0" To="0" Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity" Storyboard.TargetName="PlaceholderTextContentPresenter"/>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="Background" Storyboard.TargetName="BackgroundElement">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="Transparent"/>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
In the code above, I've changed the third animation, so now it sets Transparent to Background.
The complete Style (taken from Blend) can look like this:
<Page.Resources>
<Style x:Key="TransparentStyle" TargetType="TextBox">
<Setter Property="MinWidth" Value="{ThemeResource TextControlThemeMinWidth}"/>
<Setter Property="MinHeight" Value="{ThemeResource TextControlThemeMinHeight}"/>
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{ThemeResource TextBoxForegroundThemeBrush}"/>
<Setter Property="SelectionHighlightColor" Value="{ThemeResource TextSelectionHighlightColorThemeBrush}"/>
<Setter Property="Background" Value="{ThemeResource TextBoxBackgroundThemeBrush}"/>
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="{ThemeResource TextBoxBorderThemeBrush}"/>
<Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="{ThemeResource TextControlBorderThemeThickness}"/>

And you use it like this:
<TextBox Background="Transparent" GotFocus="titleBox_GotFocus" Style="{StaticResource TransparentStyle}"/>
You can make the Textbox transparent always by applying the following style,
Style:
<ControlTemplate x:Key="PhoneDisabledTextBoxTemplate" TargetType="TextBox">
<ContentControl x:Name="ContentElement" BorderThickness="0" HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch" Margin="{StaticResource PhoneTextBoxInnerMargin}" Padding="{TemplateBinding Padding}" VerticalContentAlignment="Stretch"/>
