Dependency Property Information
This property only affects a control whose template uses the Foreground property as a parameter. On other controls, this property has no impact.
The following example shows how to set the font style property of a control.
<Button Name="btn1" Foreground="Black"
Click="ChangeForeground">
Foreground
</Button>
Private Sub ChangeForeground(ByVal Sender As Object, ByVal e As RoutedEventArgs)
If (Equals(btn1.Foreground, Brushes.Green)) Then
btn1.Foreground = Brushes.Black
btn1.Content = "Foreground"
Else
btn1.Foreground = Brushes.Green
btn1.Content = "Control foreground(text) changes from black to green."
End If
End Sub
void ChangeForeground(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
if (btn1.Foreground == Brushes.Green)
{
btn1.Foreground = Brushes.Black;
btn1.Content = "Foreground";
}
else
{
btn1.Foreground = Brushes.Green;
btn1.Content = "Control foreground(text) changes from black to green.";
}
