Based on the following code:
<GroupBox>
<GroupBox.Template>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type GroupBox}">
<ContentPresenter TextElement.FontSize="28" />
</ControlTemplate>
</GroupBox.Template>
<TextBlock>Test</TextBlock>
</GroupBox>
I expected "Test" to display with FontSize = 28. But instead, it uses the default size.
If I remove the TextBlock as follows:
<GroupBox>
<GroupBox.Template>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type GroupBox}">
<ContentPresenter TextElement.FontSize="28" />
</ControlTemplate>
</GroupBox.Template>
Test
</GroupBox>
Now the text is displayed with 28 as FontSize.
Should I not inherit the value of a property when I use TextBlock?
This other question How do I change FontFamily to ContentPresenter? doesn't help as it only works for default content.
This question also: How to change FontFamily to ContentPresenter? .
Both work if you use the default content handler, but fail to create the text block manually.
: , ContentControl:
<StackPanel>
<StackPanel.Resources>
<ControlTemplate x:Key="UsingBorderTemplate" TargetType="{x:Type ContentControl}">
<Border BorderBrush="Red" BorderThickness="1" TextElement.FontFamily="Courier New" Margin="5">
<ContentPresenter/>
</Border>
</ControlTemplate>
<ControlTemplate x:Key="MyTemplate" TargetType="{x:Type ContentControl}">
<ContentPresenter TextElement.FontFamily="Courier New" Margin="5" />
</ControlTemplate>
</StackPanel.Resources>
<ContentControl Template="{StaticResource MyTemplate}">
I'm courier new!
</ContentControl>
<ContentControl Template="{StaticResource MyTemplate}">
<TextBlock>I'm default!</TextBlock>
</ContentControl>
</StackPanel>
"MyTemplate" "UseBorderTemplate" .
