Style.Setters Property

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Gets a collection of Setter objects.

Namespace: System.Windows
Assembly: System.Windows (in System.Windows.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public ReadOnly Property Setters As SetterBaseCollection

public SetterBaseCollection Setters { get; }

<Style ...>
  oneOrMoreSetters
</Style>

<Style>
  <Style.Setters>
    oneOrMoreSetters
  </Style.Setters>
</Style>

XAML Values

oneOrMoreSetters
One or more object elements for objects that derive from SetterBase. Generally, these are Setter object elements.

The verbose syntax for property element syntax is not necessary because Setters is the content property for Style, and therefore the Style.Setters property element may be omitted. However, some users (and some tools) choose to use an explicit property element usage for Style.Setters.

Property Value

Type: System.Windows.SetterBaseCollection
A collection of Setter objects. The default is an empty collection.

Examples

The following example creates two styles: one for a TextBlock and one for a TextBox. The style for the TextBlock sets the Foreground, FontSize, and VerticalAlignment properties. The style for the TextBox sets the Width, Height, Margin, Background, and FontSize properties. Each style is applied to two instances of a control to create a uniform appearance for each TextBlock and TextBox.

<StackPanel>
  <StackPanel.Resources>
    <!--Create a Style for a TextBlock to specify that the
              Foreground equals Navy, FontSize equals 14, and
              VerticalAlignment equals Botton.-->
    <Style TargetType="TextBlock" x:Key="TextBlockStyle">
      <Setter Property="Foreground" Value="Navy"/>
      <Setter Property="FontSize" Value="14"/>
      <Setter Property="VerticalAlignment" Value="Bottom"/>
    </Style>

    <!--Create a Style for a TextBlock that specifies that
              the Width is 200, Height is 20, Margin is 4,
              Background is LightBlue, and FontSize is 14.-->
    <Style TargetType="TextBox" x:Key="TextBoxStyle">
      <Setter Property="Width" Value="200"/>
      <Setter Property="Height" Value="30"/>
      <Setter Property="Margin" Value="4"/>
      <Setter Property="FontSize" Value="14"/>
      <Setter Property="Background">
        <Setter.Value>
          <LinearGradientBrush StartPoint="0,0.5" EndPoint="1,0.5">
            <GradientStop Color="White" Offset="0.0"/>
            <GradientStop Color="LightBlue" Offset="0.5"/>
            <GradientStop Color="Navy" Offset="1"/>
          </LinearGradientBrush>
        </Setter.Value>
      </Setter>
    </Style>
  </StackPanel.Resources>

  <!--Apply the TextBlockStyle and TextBoxStyle to each 
          TextBlock and TextBox, respectively.-->
  <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
    <TextBlock Style="{StaticResource TextBlockStyle}">
              First Name:
          </TextBlock>
    <TextBox Style="{StaticResource TextBoxStyle}"/>
  </StackPanel>
  <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
    <TextBlock Style="{StaticResource TextBlockStyle}">
              Last Name:
          </TextBlock>
    <TextBox Style="{StaticResource TextBoxStyle}"  
                   Margin="6,4,4,4"/>
  </StackPanel>
</StackPanel>
