WPF - FocusVisualStyle, where do I use it?

Question

I have UserControlone that basically wraps ListBoxas follows:

        <ListBox x:Name="lb" ItemsSource="{Binding ElementName=UC,Path=Pages}"
             Background="{Binding ElementName=UC,Path=Background}"
             BorderBrush="Transparent"
             ScrollViewer.CanContentScroll="False" 
             ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Hidden" 
             ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled">

        <ListBox.ItemsPanel>
            <ItemsPanelTemplate>
                <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" IsItemsHost="True"/>
            </ItemsPanelTemplate>
        </ListBox.ItemsPanel>

        <ListBox.ItemTemplate>
            <DataTemplate>
                <Grid Width="{Binding ElementName=UC,Path=ActualWidth}">
                    <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                        <ColumnDefinition MinWidth="20"/>
                        <ColumnDefinition/>
                        <ColumnDefinition MinWidth="20"/>
                    </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                    <ContentPresenter Grid.Column="1" Content="{Binding}"/>
                </Grid>
            </DataTemplate>
        </ListBox.ItemTemplate>
    </ListBox>

I need to set FocusVisualStyleto {x:Null}to hide this functionality, but no matter where I use it, I still get the default highlight blue. I tried to install it in ListBox, StackPanel and Grid, but to no avail.

Any help would be great. thanks.

Answer 1

FocusVisualStyle applies "marching ants" around the focused element, not the background color. To change the background color of the selected ListBoxItems, do the following:

<ListBox>
    <ListBox.Resources>
        <SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey}" Value="Red"/>
        <SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightTextBrushKey}" Value="Black"/>
    </ListBox.Resources>    
</ListBox>
