HeaderedItemsControl Styles and Templates
This topic describes the styles and templates for the HeaderedItemsControl control. You can modify the default ControlTemplate to give the control a unique appearance. For more information, see Customizing the Appearance of an Existing Control by Using a ControlTemplate.
The following shows the XML namespace mappings that you have to specify when you work with styles and templates.
<!-- XML Namespace mappings. --> xmlns:vsm="clr-namespace:System.Windows;assembly=System.Windows" xmlns:controls="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls;assembly=System.Windows.Controls"
 Important Note: |
|---|
The default templates for controls in Silverlight 4 still use the Silverlight 3-style prefixes, such as controls: and data: instead of sdk:. This is because the default control templates support Silverlight 3 and Silverlight 4 simultaneously. For more information, see Prefixes and Mappings for Silverlight Libraries. |
| Note: |
|---|
The default templates still specify the vsm: XML namespace mapping for the VisualStateManager element for legacy reasons. You can however, use the VisualStateManager element without specifying the vsm: mapping. |
The following XAML shows the default style and template for the HeaderedItemsControl control.
