Change selected and unfocused Listbox style to not be grayed out
I have done something like this using the following in a merged ResourceDictionary, it may help you: <Style TargetType=”ListBoxItem”> <Style.Resources> <!–SelectedItem with focus–> <SolidColorBrush x:Key=”{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey}” Color=”LightBlue” Opacity=”.4″/> <!–SelectedItem without focus–> <SolidColorBrush x:Key=”{x:Static SystemColors.InactiveSelectionHighlightBrushKey }” Color=”LightBlue” Opacity=”.4″/> </Style.Resources> </Style>
