How to: Use Triggers to Style Selected Items in a ListView
This example shows how to define Triggers for a ListViewItem control so that when a property value of a ListViewItem changes, the Style of the ListViewItem changes in response.
Example
If you want the Style of a ListViewItem to change in response to property changes, define Triggers for the Style change.
The following example defines a Trigger that sets the Foreground property to Blue and changes the Cursor to display a Hand when the IsMouseOver property changes to true.
<Style x:Key="MyContainer" TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}">
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="0,1,0,0"/>
<Setter Property="Height" Value="21"/>
<Style.Triggers>
...
<Trigger Property="IsMouseOver" Value="true">
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="Blue" />
<Setter Property="Cursor" Value="Hand"/>
</Trigger>
...
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
The following example defines a MultiTrigger that sets the Foreground property of a ListViewItem to Yellow when the ListViewItem is the selected item and has keyboard focus.
<Style x:Key="MyContainer" TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}">
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="0,1,0,0"/>
<Setter Property="Height" Value="21"/>
<Style.Triggers>
...
<MultiTrigger>
<MultiTrigger.Conditions>
<Condition Property="IsSelected" Value="true" />
<Condition Property="Selector.IsSelectionActive" Value="true" />
</MultiTrigger.Conditions>
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="Yellow" />
</MultiTrigger>
...
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
