AppBar styles and templates

[ This article is for Windows 8.x and Windows Phone 8.x developers writing Windows Runtime apps. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation ]

This topic describes the styles and templates for the AppBar control. You can modify these resources and the default ControlTemplate to give the control a unique appearance.

Visual states

These are the VisualStates defined in the control's default style.

VisualState name VisualStateGroup name Description
FloatingVisible FloatingStates The app bar is visible.
FloatingHidden FloatingStates The app bar is hidden.
Top DockPositions The app bar is at the top of the screen.
Bottom DockPositions The app bar is at the bottom of the screen.

 

Theme resources

These resources are used in the control's default style.

Dark theme brushes

To change the colors of the control in the dark theme, override these brushes in App.xaml.

<SolidColorBrush x:Key="AppBarBackgroundThemeBrush" Color="#FF000000" />
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="AppBarBorderThemeBrush" Color="#FF000000" />

Light theme brushes

To change the colors of the control in the light theme, override these brushes in App.xaml.

<SolidColorBrush x:Key="AppBarBackgroundThemeBrush" Color="#FFF0F0F0" />
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="AppBarBorderThemeBrush" Color="#FFF0F0F0" />

Other resources

<x:Double x:Key="AppBarThemeMinHeight">68</x:Double>
<Thickness x:Key="AppBarBottomBorderThemeThickness">0,2,0,0</Thickness>
<Thickness x:Key="AppBarBottomThemePadding">0,0,0,2</Thickness>
