I have some radiobuttons in an app that works with touch.
Because the end-user can have thick fingers, I want to make the circle and text int he radiobutton bigger.
Problem is, I can only make the text bigger, not the circle in the radiobutton.
<RadioButton VerticalAlignment="Center" x:Name="rbtnContainers" Click="SetContainers" FontSize="18">Containers</RadioButton>
Using height doesn't work either. It makes the radiobutton bigger, but the circle remains the same.
Any hint or answer is appreciated.
This should work for you.
<Viewbox Height="40">
<RadioButton></RadioButton>
</Viewbox>
another alternative is to write your own ControlTemplate for the RadioButton and change its appearance as you want.
To resize only the circle, one can use RadioButton
template and change Width
and Height
of BulletChrome
.
<ControlTemplate TargetType="RadioButton" x:Key="CustomRadioButtonStyle"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:s="clr-namespace:System;assembly=mscorlib" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" xmlns:mwt="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Windows.Themes;assembly=PresentationFramework.Aero">
<BulletDecorator Background="#00FFFFFF">
<BulletDecorator.Bullet>
<mwt:BulletChrome Height="25" Width="25" Background="{TemplateBinding Panel.Background}" BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding Border.BorderBrush}" RenderMouseOver="{TemplateBinding UIElement.IsMouseOver}" RenderPressed="{TemplateBinding ButtonBase.IsPressed}" IsChecked="{TemplateBinding ToggleButton.IsChecked}" IsRound="True" />
</BulletDecorator.Bullet>
<ContentPresenter RecognizesAccessKey="True" Content="{TemplateBinding ContentControl.Content}" ContentTemplate="{TemplateBinding ContentControl.ContentTemplate}" ContentStringFormat="{TemplateBinding ContentControl.ContentStringFormat}" Margin="{TemplateBinding Control.Padding}" HorizontalAlignment="{TemplateBinding Control.HorizontalContentAlignment}" VerticalAlignment="{TemplateBinding Control.VerticalContentAlignment}" />
</BulletDecorator>
<ControlTemplate.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="ContentControl.HasContent">
<Setter Property="FrameworkElement.FocusVisualStyle">
<Setter.Value>
<Style TargetType="IFrameworkInputElement">
<Style.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary />
</Style.Resources>
<Setter Property="Control.Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate>
<Rectangle Stroke="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.ControlTextBrushKey}}" StrokeThickness="1" StrokeDashArray="1 2" Margin="14,0,0,0" SnapsToDevicePixels="True" />
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
<Setter Property="Control.Padding">
<Setter.Value>
<Thickness>4,0,0,0</Thickness>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
<Trigger.Value>
<s:Boolean>True</s:Boolean>
</Trigger.Value>
</Trigger>
<Trigger Property="UIElement.IsEnabled">
<Setter Property="TextElement.Foreground">
<Setter.Value>
<DynamicResource ResourceKey="{x:Static SystemColors.GrayTextBrushKey}" />
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
<Trigger.Value>
<s:Boolean>False</s:Boolean>
</Trigger.Value>
</Trigger>
</ControlTemplate.Triggers>
</ControlTemplate>
A more of a hack would be to try to simply transform the object with something like...
<RadioButton.RenderTransform>
<CompositeTransform ScaleX="5" ScaleY="5"/>
</RadioButton.RenderTransform>
Just remember that ScaleX
and ScaleY
needs to be equal, otherwise the object will look stretched awkwardly
According to my own experimenting, the rendering of this is not at all messed up (e.g. no alignment issues, etc.)
