AppBarButton styles and templates

[ This article is for Windows 8.x and Windows Phone 8.x developers writing Windows Runtime apps. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation ]

This topic describes the styles and templates for the AppBarButton control. You can modify these resources and the default ControlTemplate to give the control a unique appearance.

Note  

In a Windows Phone Store app, modifying these resources to give an AppBarButton control a unique appearance is only effective when the AppBarButton is used on the page in a free-standing way. For an AppBarButton nested inside a CommandBar, modifying these resources has no effect.

Visual states

These are the VisualStates defined in the control's default style.

VisualState name VisualStateGroup name Description
FullSize ApplicationViewStates IsCompact is false.
Compact ApplicationViewStates IsCompact is true.
Normal CommonStates The default state.
PointerOver CommonStates The pointer is positioned over the control.
Pressed CommonStates The control is pressed.
Disabled CommonStates The control is disabled.
Focused FocusStates The control has focus.
Unfocused FocusStates The control doesn't have focus.
PointerFocused FocusStates The control has focus obtained through a pointer action.

 

Theme resources

These resources are used in the control's default style.

Dark theme brushes

To change the colors of the control in the dark theme, override these brushes in App.xaml.

<SolidColorBrush x:Key="AppBarItemBackgroundThemeBrush" Color="Transparent" />
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="AppBarItemDisabledForegroundThemeBrush" Color="#66FFFFFF" />
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="AppBarItemForegroundThemeBrush" Color="#FFFFFFFF" />
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="AppBarItemPointerOverBackgroundThemeBrush" Color="#21FFFFFF" />
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="AppBarItemPointerOverForegroundThemeBrush" Color="#FFFFFFFF" />
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="AppBarItemPressedForegroundThemeBrush" Color="#FF000000" />

Light theme brushes

To change the colors of the control in the light theme, override these brushes in App.xaml.

<SolidColorBrush x:Key="AppBarItemBackgroundThemeBrush" Color="Transparent" />
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="AppBarItemDisabledForegroundThemeBrush" Color="#66000000" />
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="AppBarItemForegroundThemeBrush" Color="#FF000000" />
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="AppBarItemPointerOverBackgroundThemeBrush" Color="#3D000000" />
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="AppBarItemPointerOverForegroundThemeBrush" Color="#FF000000" />
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="AppBarItemPressedForegroundThemeBrush" Color="#FFFFFFFF" />

Shared resources

The control template uses these resources that are shared with other control templates. Changing these values will affect other controls that use these resources.

<FontFamily x:Key="ContentControlThemeFontFamily">Segoe UI</FontFamily>
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="FocusVisualBlackStrokeThemeBrush" Color="Black" />
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="FocusVisualWhiteStrokeThemeBrush" Color="White" />
