Features

WPF / .NET Technology

• Created entirely for WPF, written in C# and XAML and built for .NET 4 and 3.5.
• Full XAML source is available in the Blueprint Edition.
• XBAP-friendly, CLS compliant, and uses no unsafe blocks. No special permissions are required, so it can run within the limited permission set granted to XBAP applications.
• All error handling works through .NET exception classes.

Major Features

• Seven flawless WPF themes.
• Meticulously created by Xceed's experienced WPF technical design and graphic artist teams.
• Can be used to style any official Microsoft WPF control and its child items, as well as Page and Window.
• Provides styles for Microsoft’s datagrid and datepicker controls!
• All properties behave as you’d expect, so a control will be properly shaded when you set its color, for example.
• Supports implicit styles, so as little as a couple of lines of XAML code are needed to apply beautiful, uniform styles to any WPF application in less than two minutes.
• Styles can also be applied explicitly for maximum flexibility.
• The product’s striking matching brushes can be applied to your own controls so they fit in seamlessly with the rest of the themed application.
• Comprehensive documentation fully integrated into Visual Studio .NET is provided.
• Includes a Resource Center to get you started more quickly and to keep you up to date with the latest news concerning Xceed’s WPF themes.

Available Themes

• A Glass theme, to let you create applications that faithfully reproduce the modern look and feel found in Windows Vista and the upcoming Windows 7 operating system, helping end-users focus on the task at hand, rather than on the application and its controls.
• A Media theme, to let you apply the pleasing styles found in the popular Windows Media Player application. Included is a custom button that resembles the rounded ones found in that application.
• Three Office 2007 themes (black, blue, and silver), to let you create applications with a more traditional but nevertheless modern look that will fit in with past, present, and future operating systems.
• A vibrant theme inspired by Windows 7, to let you create apps that fit well into Microsoft’s latest and greatest operating system.
• The Live Explorer theme from Xceed’s datagrid demo, to give your apps a unique style that is darker and more sophisticated, with a touch of color, and unlike the typical Microsoft OS / application themes.
