You can reuse styles to customize appearance of components s in WPF . To change the color of Combo items ,you have to create a style for itemcontainer
This can be done as follows
ItemContainer Style
<Style x:Key="Combo+" TargetType="ComboBoxItem">
<Setter Property="FocusVisualStyle" Value="{x:Null}" />
<Setter Property="Background" Value="AliceBlue" />
<Style.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="IsSelected" Value="True">
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="Red"/>
<Setter Property="Background" Value="GreenYellow"/>
</Trigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
I have also another style for combo which set font, color etc . You can call the container style directly to Listbox or call from another style which is I am doing right here
Within another style
<Style x:Key="Combo" TargetType="ComboBox">
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="18"/>
<Setter Property="ItemContainerStyle" Value="{DynamicResource Combo+}"/>
</Style>
Within List [Direct way]
<ComboBox ItemContainerStyle=""="{DynamicResource Combo+}" KeyUp="_TabPress" TabIndex="10" x:Name="lstb_base" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="10" Margin="0.2,31.6,0,2" Grid.RowSpan="2" Width="99" HorizontalAlignment="Left" >
<ComboBox Style="{DynamicResource Combo}" KeyUp="_TabPress" TabIndex="10" x:Name="lstb_base" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="10" Margin="0.2,31.6,0,2" Grid.RowSpan="2" Width="99" HorizontalAlignment="Left" >
In the XAML
In my xaml I just calling the style using
<ComboBox Style="{DynamicResource Combo}" KeyUp="_TabPress" TabIndex="10" x:Name="lstb_base" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="10" Margin="0.2,31.6,0,2" Grid.RowSpan="2" Width="99" HorizontalAlignment="Left" >
