Get Blue! (No, not that Blue...) Get the free Office 2010 inspired Blue theme, free from Infragistics

Posted on 16:21 by Unknown

Brian Lagunas - FREE Office 2010 Blue Theme for WPF and Silverlight Microsoft Controls

Shhhhh…. Do you hear that?????  That’s the sound of another great FREE theme!

Today’s theme is the highly requested Office 2010 Blue theme.  The Office 2010 Blue theme takes it’s visual cues from the Microsoft Office 2010 product suite.  This is probably the most popular theme among Windows developers.  Why?  Well ,let’s face it!  Most clients want all their apps to look like Outlook and Excel.  Don’t ask me why, they just do.  Maybe they just feel more comfortable with apps that have that Office feel to them.  Because of that, most LOB developers have to provide an “Office” type theme to make their end-users feel all warm and fuzzy inside.  Well, now you can!  I am giving you this awesome Office 2010 Blue theme for Free!

Now remember, there is a catch to this free theme.  I will NOT support every single Microsoft control.  Why?  Well, because I would prefer for you to use Infragistics controls instead.  For example, I will not be providing a style for the Microsoft DataGrid because Infragistics has a much better xamDataGrid control.  You get the idea.

Silverlight

First up is the Silverlight version of the Infragistics’ “Office 2010 Blue Theme”. ...

WPF

Next up is the WPF version of the Infragistics’ “Office 2010 Blue Theme”.  Just like the Silverlight version, we are providing you with styles for the primitive WPF controls that appear in the Visual Studio toolbox, as well as some controls in the WPF Toolkit.  Just like for the Silverlight version, we organized the themes by their respective source so that if you don’t use the WPF toolkit, there will be no need for your code to take a dependency on it....

 

Here is the full list of support controls:

  • Accordion
  • AutoCompleteBox
  • Button
  • CheckBox
  • ComboBox
  • Expander
  • GridSplitter
  • GroupBox
  • Label
  • ListBox
  • PasswordBox
  • ProgressBar
  • RadioButton
  • Rating
  • RepeatButton
  • Slider
  • TextBox
  • ToggleButton
  • Tooltip

Blue is coming back, as seems to be a theme that people like, so having a free version that supports many WPF controls, is nice...
