Create link lable style WPF

I created the following style:

<Style x:Key="LinkText" TargetType="{x:Type Label}">
    <Setter Property="Label.FontFamily" Value="Verdana"/>
    <Setter Property="Label.FontSize" Value="13"/>
    <Setter Property="Label.Foreground" Value="Blue"/>
    <Setter Property="TextBlock.TextDecorations" Value="Underline"/>
</Style>

But when I try to use it on some label the UnderLine is missing.

I wrote at my UserControl the next Label:

<Label Grid.Column="1" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Style="{StaticResource LinkText}">
 <TextBlock>some text</TextBlock></Label>

I see all the style properties except the underLine propery How can I create Label style with underline?

Solution

  • Try to use a TextBlock control instead of a Label control. It behaves more or less exactly the same and should allow you to underline the text.

    The TextBlock.TextDecorations dependency property belongs to the TextBlock control so you must use it to underline text.
