The specified types are not valid. The TargetType of a ControlTemplate must be or inherit from a Control, a Page, or a PageFunctionBase.

Examples

The following example demonstrates the use of this property:

<Style x:Key="{x:Type Label}"
       TargetType="Label">
  <Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment"
          Value="Left" />
  <Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment"
          Value="Top" />
  <Setter Property="Template">
    <Setter.Value>
      <ControlTemplate TargetType="Label">
        <Border>
          <ContentPresenter HorizontalAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}"
                            VerticalAlignment="{TemplateBinding VerticalContentAlignment}"
                            RecognizesAccessKey="True" />
        </Border>
        <ControlTemplate.Triggers>
          <Trigger Property="IsEnabled"
                   Value="false">
            <Setter Property="Foreground">
              <Setter.Value>
                <SolidColorBrush Color="{DynamicResource DisabledForegroundColor}" />
              </Setter.Value>
            </Setter>
          </Trigger>
        </ControlTemplate.Triggers>
      </ControlTemplate>
    </Setter.Value>
  </Setter>
</Style>

The above example uses the following resource:

Remarks

If you have a standalone ControlTemplate in the resources section with the TargetType property set to a type, the ControlTemplate does not get applied to that type automatically. Instead, you need to specify an x:Key and apply the template explicitly.

Also note that the TargetType property is required on a ControlTemplate if the template definition contains a ContentPresenter.
