Hello I want the background image to change when I hover over the button. But it doesn't change.
Platform : UWP
Version : 17763
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetName="NormalBackground" Storyboard.TargetProperty="Visibility">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="Collapsed"/>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
When I delete the code above, the picture comes up but the normal picture is not hidden.
UWP Button Hover Background not changed
The problem is the button's content is empty, so it can't detect PointerOver event when the cursor is point over. For solve this problem please fill the content with Transparent Rectangle for button like the following.
<Button
x:Name="btn"
Width="60"
Height="60"
Margin="540,0,0,-18"
Click="btn_Click"
ClickMode="Press"
>
<Button.Content>
<Rectangle Fill="Transparent" Height="60" Width="60"/>
</Button.Content>

I have issue with CollectionView and VisualStateManager.
This is my CollectionView. I've also trying to use Compiled Bindings.
<CollectionView Grid.Row="1"
ItemSizingStrategy="MeasureAllItems"
ItemsSource="{Binding SizeOptions}"
Margin="0"
SelectionChangedCommand="{Binding SelectionChangedCommand}"
SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedSizeOption}"
SelectionMode="Single">
<CollectionView.Header>
<BoxView VerticalOptions="Start"
HeightRequest="1"
Color="{StaticResource DividerColor}"/>
</CollectionView.Header>
<CollectionView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate x:DataType="tpViewModels:SizeOption">
<StackLayout IsEnabled="{Binding IsEnabled}">
<StackLayout AutomationId="{Binding Text}"
AutomationProperties.IsInAccessibleTree="True"
HeightRequest="64"
IsEnabled="{Binding IsEnabled}"
Margin="10, 0, 0, 0"
MinimumHeightRequest="64"
Orientation="Horizontal"
Padding="0"
x:Name="Holder">
<Image HeightRequest="20"
IsEnabled="{Binding IsEnabled}"
WidthRequest="20"
x:Name="RadioButtonImage">
</Image>
<Label FontSize="14"
HorizontalOptions="StartAndExpand"
IsEnabled="{Binding IsEnabled}"
Padding="10, 0"
Text="{Binding Text}"
Style="{StaticResource MediumFontFamily}"
VerticalTextAlignment="Center"
x:Name="RadioButtonLabel">
</Label>
</StackLayout>
<BoxView VerticalOptions="Start"
HeightRequest="1"
Color="{StaticResource DividerColor}"/>
</StackLayout>
</DataTemplate>
</CollectionView.ItemTemplate>
</CollectionView>
When I don't use DataType in DataTemplate, then IsEnabled = false woks perfect, we cannot select item in list. But when I use DataType, then I can select diabled item.
Also I want to change TextColor, FontAttributes and Image.Source when item should be disabled.
It sets for me only VisualStates = Normal or Selected, VisualStateManager doesn't works with State = Disabled.
I've added VisualStateManager in first StackLayout with TargetName setted to x:Name of Label and Image.
DataTrigger for Label and Image works, but I can selected disabled item :(
Anyone knows why?
You could try to set the Visual State Manager to the ContentPage.Resources.
Like:
<ContentPage.Resources>
<Style TargetType="Label">
<Setter Property="VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups">
<VisualStateGroupList>
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="CommonStates">
<VisualState x:Name="Normal" >
<VisualState.Setters>
<Setter Property="TextColor"
Value="LightSkyBlue" />
</VisualState.Setters>
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="Selected">
<VisualState.Setters>
<Setter Property="TextColor"
Value="LightSkyBlue" />
</VisualState.Setters>
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="Disabled">
<VisualState.Setters>
<Setter Property="TextColor"
Value="Green" />
</VisualState.Setters>
</VisualState>
</VisualStateGroup>
</VisualStateGroupList>
</Setter>
</Style>
<Style TargetType="Image">
<Setter Property="VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups">
<VisualStateGroupList>
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="CommonStates">
<VisualState x:Name="Normal" >
<VisualState.Setters>
<Setter Property="Source"
Value="normalicon.png" />
</VisualState.Setters>
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="Selected">
<VisualState.Setters>
<Setter Property="Source"
Value="normalicon.png" />
</VisualState.Setters>
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="Disabled">
<VisualState.Setters>
<Setter Property="Source"
Value="disableicon.png" />
</VisualState.Setters>
</VisualState>
</VisualStateGroup>
</VisualStateGroupList>
</Setter>
</Style>
</ContentPage.Resources>
I need to find how to apply the border on a UWP button when selected. My code is given below. There border set as 1 in visual state and applies it as style to the button. Though the button is clicked button border is not visible there. Please give me an idea of how to do it.
//add visual states when button focused
<VisualState x:Name="PointerFocused">
<VisualState.Setters>
<Setter Target="FocusContentPresenter.Border" Value="1" />
<Setter Target="FocusContentPresenter.(UIElement.Opacity) Value="1</VisualState.Setters>
</VisualState.Setters>
....................
<Button Style="{StaticResource ButtonStyle}" CornerRadius="10" Background="Blue" Width="60" Height="50" Click="OnPenColorChanged" Margin="3,0,3,0"/>
.................
In UWP, changing the state of a control in different states requires the ControlTemplate.
This is the default Button style:
<Style x:Key="DefaultButtonStyle" TargetType="Button">
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{ThemeResource AccentButtonForeground}" />
<Setter Property="Background" Value="{ThemeResource AccentButtonBackground}" />
<Setter Property="BackgroundSizing" Value="OuterBorderEdge" />
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="{ThemeResource AccentButtonBorderBrush}" />
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="Button">
<ContentPresenter x:Name="ContentPresenter"
Background="{TemplateBinding Background}"
BackgroundSizing="{TemplateBinding BackgroundSizing}"
BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}"
BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}"
Content="{TemplateBinding Content}"
ContentTemplate="{TemplateBinding ContentTemplate}"
ContentTransitions="{TemplateBinding ContentTransitions}"
CornerRadius="{TemplateBinding CornerRadius}"
Padding="{TemplateBinding Padding}"

There are multiple VisualStates in it, like PointerOver:
<VisualState x:Name="PointerOver">
<Storyboard>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetName="ContentPresenter" Storyboard.TargetProperty="Background">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="{ThemeResource AccentButtonBackgroundPointerOver}" />

<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="{ThemeResource AccentButtonBorderBrushPointerOver}" />
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetName="ContentPresenter" Storyboard.TargetProperty="Foreground">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="{ThemeResource AccentButtonForegroundPointerOver}" />
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
<PointerUpThemeAnimation Storyboard.TargetName="ContentPresenter" />
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
If you want to change the Button's BorderBrush property on PointerOver state, you can change the ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames which Storyboard.TargetProperty="BorderBrush".
After modification, reference this style on the corresponding button:
<Button Style="{StaticResource DefaultButtonStyle}" />

This is an issue in xamarin forms and here is the issue link : Focused not firing keyboard
https://github.com/xamarin/Xamarin.Forms/issues/4573
I'm struggling to create a button with rounded corner where I don't have to create a new style of button for each color I want to use.
I want to do something like this:
<Grid Background="Wheat">
<Button Content="Test" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" Width="300" Height="300"
Style="{StaticResource RoundedButtonStyle}" Background="Blue"/>
</Grid>
but the background of the parent grid always effects the color of the pressed button.
I modified the default button template just to add the corner radius.
How can I create a style that uses the background color of the button and lightens it when pressed (and not use the parent background)?
<Style TargetType="Button" x:Key="RoundedButtonStyle">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="{ThemeResource SystemControlBackgroundBaseLowBrush}" />

It's good you know to edit the style template of your button, to change the background color of a Button when it is pressed, you will need to modify the "Pressed" VisualState in the style.
For example like this:
<VisualState x:Name="Pressed">
<Storyboard>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="Background" Storyboard.TargetName="RootGrid">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="White" />
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="BorderBrush" Storyboard.TargetName="ContentPresenter">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="{ThemeResource SystemControlHighlightTransparentBrush}" />
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="Foreground" Storyboard.TargetName="ContentPresenter">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="{ThemeResource SystemControlHighlightBaseHighBrush}" />
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
<PointerDownThemeAnimation Storyboard.TargetName="RootGrid" />
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
By default style it uses SystemControlBackgroundBaseMediumLowBrush as background color when the Button is pressed, just checked this brush, it is the value of 66FFFFFF, this stands for a 40% alpha white. Any way, you can just edit this value in the style.
Update:
If you want to change the background color a little bit lighter when it is pressed, you can modify your style for Button like this:
<Style x:Key="ButtonStyle" TargetType="Button">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="{ThemeResource SystemControlBackgroundBaseLowBrush}" />
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{ThemeResource SystemControlForegroundBaseHighBrush}" />
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="{ThemeResource SystemControlForegroundTransparentBrush}" />
<Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="{ThemeResource ButtonBorderThemeThickness}" />
<Setter Property="Padding" Value="8,4,8,4" />
<Setter Property="HorizontalAlignment" Value="Left" />
<Setter Property="VerticalAlignment" Value="Center" />
<Setter Property="FontFamily" Value="{ThemeResource ContentControlThemeFontFamily}" />
<Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Normal" />
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="{ThemeResource ControlContentThemeFontSize}" />
<Setter Property="UseSystemFocusVisuals" Value="True" />

If the button is pressed the Background of the button should change to the foreground color and the icon which is displayed through the ContentPresenter should change to the background color or gets transparency.
Changing the background of the button to the foreground color is easy, but I don't know how to change the color of the image within the ContentPresenter?
Attached Properties to the rescue!
Step 1:
Create a static class that holds an attached property.
public static class Design
{
public static readonly DependencyProperty AlternateContentProperty = DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached(
"AlternateContent",
typeof (object),
typeof (Design),
null
);
public static void SetAlternateContent(DependencyObject element, object value)
{
element.SetValue(AlternateContentProperty, value);
}
public static object GetAlternateContent(DependencyObject element)
{
return element.GetValue(AlternateContentProperty);
}
}
Step 2:
Add the alternate content to your template in another ContentPresenter, which starts off collapsed. Then in your Pressed visual state, collapse the original content and show the alternate one.
<ControlTemplate x:Key="RoundButtonTemplate"
TargetType="Button">
<Grid Background="Transparent"
Margin="{StaticResource PhoneTouchTargetOverhang}">
<VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="CommonStates">
<VisualState x:Name="Pressed">
<Storyboard>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Shape.Fill)"
Storyboard.TargetName="ButtonBackground">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0"
Value="{StaticResource PhoneAccentBrush}" />
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="(UIElement.Visibility)"
Storyboard.TargetName="ButtonContentAlternate">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame.Value>
<Visibility>Visible</Visibility>
</DiscreteObjectKeyFrame.Value>
</DiscreteObjectKeyFrame>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="(UIElement.Visibility)"
Storyboard.TargetName="ButtonContent">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame.Value>
<Visibility>Collapsed</Visibility>
</DiscreteObjectKeyFrame.Value>
</DiscreteObjectKeyFrame>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="Normal" />
<VisualState x:Name="Disabled">
<Storyboard>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Shape.Opacity)"
Storyboard.TargetName="ButtonBackground">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0"
Value="0.5" />
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Shape.Opacity)"
Storyboard.TargetName="ButtonBorder">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0"
Value="0.5" />
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Shape.Opacity)"
Storyboard.TargetName="ButtonContent">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0"
Value="0.5" />
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="MouseOver" />
</VisualStateGroup>
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="FocusStates" />
</VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<Border x:Name="ButtonBorder"
BorderBrush="White"
BorderThickness="3"
Background="Transparent"
CornerRadius="100">
<Ellipse x:Name="ButtonBackground"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
VerticalAlignment="Stretch"
Fill="{TemplateBinding Background}" />
</Border>
<ContentPresenter x:Name="ButtonContent"
Content="{TemplateBinding Content}"
HorizontalAlignment="Center"
VerticalAlignment="Center" />
<ContentPresenter x:Name="ButtonContentAlternate"
Content="{TemplateBinding Local:Design.AlternateContent}"
HorizontalAlignment="Center"
VerticalAlignment="Center"
Visibility="Collapsed" />
</Grid>
</ControlTemplate>
Step 3:
Any button that uses this template should provide two contents.
<Button VerticalAlignment="Top"
Template="{StaticResource RoundButtonTemplate}">
<Local:Design.AlternateContent>
<Rectangle Fill="Red"
Height="40"
Width="40" />
</Local:Design.AlternateContent>
<Rectangle Fill="Yellow"
Height="40"
Width="40" />
</Button>
That's it!
I hope this solves your problem :)
Try this:
<Style x:Key="RoundButtonTemplate" TargetType="Button">
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="Button">
<Grid Background="Transparent" Margin="{StaticResource PhoneTouchTargetOverhang}">
<VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="CommonStates">
<VisualState x:Name="Pressed">
<Storyboard>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Shape.Fill)" Storyboard.TargetName="ButtonBackground">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="{Binding Foreground, RelativeSource={RelativeSource TemplatedParent}}"/>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Shape.Opacity)" Storyboard.TargetName="ButtonContent">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="0.5"/>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="Normal"/>
<VisualState x:Name="Disabled">
<Storyboard>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Shape.Opacity)" Storyboard.TargetName="ButtonBackground">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="0.5"/>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Shape.Opacity)" Storyboard.TargetName="ButtonBorder">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="0.5"/>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Shape.Opacity)" Storyboard.TargetName="ButtonContent">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="0.5"/>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="MouseOver"/>
</VisualStateGroup>
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="FocusStates"/>
</VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<Border x:Name="ButtonBorder" BorderBrush="White" BorderThickness="3" Background="Transparent" CornerRadius="100">
<Ellipse x:Name="ButtonBackground" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" Fill="{TemplateBinding Background}" />
</Border>
<ContentPresenter x:Name="ButtonContent" Content="{TemplateBinding Content}" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
</Grid>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
When pressed the Background of the buttons becomes of the color of the Foreground and the content modify it's opacity to 50%.
Oh, i've made a "Style" instead of a template, so, you can call it like...
Other option is to change the current VisualState Pressed, it's the only modification I've made.
