I am experimenting with the radio button control template from MahApps.Metro.
My App.xaml looks the same as in http://mahapps.com/guides/quick-start.html
I copied the control template via VS context menu, my window looks like this:

If I wrap the outer Grid of the control template within another Grid control, the radio button works normally but the checked mark never shows.
Can someone explain me what's going on?
So like I was saying, it's an interesting quirk whereby the element (in this case your transition targets) that's in a ControlTemplate will only inherit from the outer-most parent FrameworkElement. Which, is one of those things that can really confuse ya when you're sitting there thinking "wtf? all I did was add a damn Grid around it..." Right?
For more info checkout this doc article about Changing the Visual Structure of a Control and you can get the full explanation.
Anyway, glad it helped!

I have a Style defined for a RadioButton which includes a ControlTemplate made up of BulletDecorator, VisualStateManager and Triggers. I currently have my GroupName defined on the RadioButton in the XAML code.
The selection of a radio button when running the code is not mutually exclusive.
I have read other posts saying that the problem is a second RadioButton defined in the ControlTemplate. I do not have a second RadioButton defined.
Here is a picture of buttons selected which should be mutually exclusive:
Here is my style:
<Style x:Key="RadioButtonStyle" TargetType="RadioButton">

Here is the XAML:
<RadioButton Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0" Content="Normal" Foreground="WhiteSmoke" Style="{StaticResource RadioButtonStyle}" GroupName="gpHeadingMode" Margin="0,0,0,0"/>
<RadioButton Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="0" Content="Weather Vane" Foreground="WhiteSmoke" Style="{StaticResource RadioButtonStyle}" GroupName="gpHeadingMode" Margin="0,0,0,0"/>
Tried this as a work around (in XAML):
<RadioButton Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0" x:Name="Normal" Content="Normal" Foreground="WhiteSmoke" GroupName="gpHeadingMode1"
Style="{StaticResource RadioButtonStyle}"
IsChecked="{Binding HeadingModeChecked, ElementName=HeadingDialog, Converter={StaticResource RbCheckedConverter}, ConverterParameter=Normal, FallbackValue=False}"
Click="RbHeadingMode_Click"/>
<RadioButton Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="0" x:Name="WeatherVane" Content="Weather Vane" Foreground="WhiteSmoke" GroupName="gpHeadingMode2"
Style="{StaticResource RadioButtonStyle}"
IsChecked="{Binding HeadingModeChecked, ElementName=HeadingDialog, Converter={StaticResource RbCheckedConverter}, ConverterParameter=WeatherVane, FallbackValue=False}"
Click="RbHeadingMode_Click"/>
In RbHeadingMode_Click, the dependency object HeadingModeChecked is set with the value of RadioButton.Name. If I remove the "Style" the converter fires and does the job of toggling the IsClicked value.
Unfortunately, with the Style, the converter does not fire.
Now the question becomes, how can I bind the IsChecked property in XAML to the Style?
Note: Actually, the converter does fire with Style specified but the change to IsChecked in XAML has no effect on the RadioButton.
Had to remove the following code from the Style and it works:
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="CheckStates">
<VisualState x:Name="Checked">
<Storyboard>
<DoubleAnimation Storyboard.TargetName="CheckMark" Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity" To="1" Duration="0:0:0.3"/>
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="UnChecked">
<Storyboard>
<DoubleAnimation Storyboard.TargetName="CheckMark" Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity" To="0" Duration="0:0:0.3"/>
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="Indeterminate">
<Storyboard>
<DoubleAnimation Storyboard.TargetName="CheckMark" Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity" To="1" Duration="0:0:0.3"/>
<ColorAnimation Storyboard.TargetName="CheckMain" Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Ellipse.Fill).(SolidColorBrush.Color)" To="Gray" Duration="0:0:0.3"/>
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
</VisualStateGroup>
Note: Not only does the converter work on the IsChecked property but now I can remove that converter and just use Groupname to achieve mutual exclusion on the radiobuttons!
I have a Windows 8.1 application with a Settings Flyout.
I am trying to extend the SettingsFlyout so as to modify the top header part of it to consist of a TextBox instead of the title as shown below
As you can see in the above UI, there is no Title.
But looks like the Title property is taken by default in SettingsFlyout.
How do I override this?
I would be very glad if someone can point me in the right direction.
Thanks in Advance.
You could change the style/template of the flyout, but you shouldn't do that. In case you really need to - this is the default one I extracted with Blend.

I am working on Windows Phone 8 application, I have List box with Items in it, for the items i have used DataTemplate, now i have a style as well which i have applied to List as ItemContainerStyle.
Basically this is how it is , i have a list item with default color say grey,now when i tap on that item the color grey should change to red, so that it indicates to user that he has selected that item.
My code works but its not applying as background, instead its being applied as foreground.
List box :
<ListBox Name="listBox"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource DefaultTemplate}"
ItemContainerStyle="{StaticResource ListBoxItemStyle}"/>
Data template:
<DataTemplate x:Key="DefaultTemplate">
<Border

Margin="0,2,0,0"

You don't need to override ControlTemplate for that. Override system highlight brush for your ListBox by placing it under ListBox resources if all you want is to change highlight brush for your listBox.
<ListBox>
<ListBox.Resources>
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey}"
Color="Red"/>
</ListBox.Resources>
</ListBox>
Update: Okay, since you didn't specify explicitly that you are using Silverlight which is a subset of WPF framework, not all of its API is the same.
For windows phone you want to do something like this
<Style x:Key="ListBoxItemStyle1" TargetType="ListBoxItem">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Transparent"/>
<Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="0"/>
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="Transparent"/>

then set the style for the ListBox
<ListBox x:Name="databoundListBox" ItemContainerStyle="{StaticResource ListBoxItemStyle1}" SelectionMode="Multiple"/>
I've been messing around trying to change this red border around the LoopingSelector in code, and in Blend. I just can't figure out how to do it. Here's a picture so you have an idea of what I'm talking about.
<Grid Grid.Row="1" Margin="12,0,12,0" toolkit:TurnstileFeatherEffect.FeatheringIndex="1">
<Grid.Resources>
<DataTemplate x:Key="KiloTemplate">
<Grid Background="DarkBlue">

<TextBlock Text="kg" FontSize="24" HorizontalAlignment="Right" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" />
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</Grid.Resources>
<toolkitPrimitives:LoopingSelector x:Name="loopingSelectorStarost" Margin="12" Width="128" ItemSize="128,128" ItemTemplate="{StaticResource StarostTemplate}" ManipulationStarted="loopingSelector_ManipulationStarted">
<toolkitPrimitives:LoopingSelector.DataSource>
<local:NumberDataSource Privzeti="18" Minimum="13" Maximum="99" />
</toolkitPrimitives:LoopingSelector.DataSource>
</toolkitPrimitives:LoopingSelector>
</Grid>
EDIT: Here's the soulution, thanks to Chris. W. I copied the style from the Generic.xaml file in the Phone Toolkit samples. I changed the <DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="Transparent" /> in the Selected Visual State. Here's the code:
<Style TargetType="toolkitPrimitives:LoopingSelectorItem">
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{StaticResource PhoneSubtleBrush}"/>
<Setter Property="Padding" Value="6"/>

Start by finding the template for it, a quick solution search for TargetType="primitives:LoopingSelectorItem" should expose it pretty quick or you could likely get to it in Blend.
Once you have the template you'll just locate the Border or Rectangle object in the template that's causing that border.
However that may not even be necessary if the property is bound to the template already. Can you set something like BorderBrush directly to it? I'd have to load something up to look so I'm just guessing at this point.
Hope this helps.
I'm using a thumb control in a windows store app to represent a draggable image. However whenever I hover over it it changes into a grey box, and when I drag it it turns into a darker grey box. When release it reverts to the image I gave it as a background. Is there any way to turn off or customize away the highlight/focus and dragging appearances?
EDIT:
Here is my XAML for the control. I have it inside a grid but don't do anything with that.
<Canvas x:Name="PART_background" Background="White" Height="140" Width="20">
<Thumb x:Name="PART_drag" Canvas.Left="0" Width="20" Height="50">
<Thumb.BorderBrush>
<SolidColorBrush Color="Black" Opacity="0"></SolidColorBrush>
</Thumb.BorderBrush>
<Thumb.Background>
<ImageBrush x:Name="PART_image" Stretch="None" AlignmentX="Center" />
</Thumb.Background>
</Thumb>
</Canvas>
You need to edit the template - it works best in Blend, then change the visual state animations. The default template has a few Border elements and for various visual states (PointerPressed, PointerOver) - it animates Opacity of these borders. Here's the extracted template. You can simply remove the Storyboards to get rid of the visual feedback.
