Progressbar foreground color

Does anybody know how to change the foreground color of a WPF-Progressbar. It always seems to be merged with green.

Solution

  • Unfortunately, it is hard coded in default style:

    <Trigger Property="IsIndeterminate"
     Value="false">
<Setter TargetName="Animation"
    Property="Background"
    Value="#80B5FFA9"/>

    You can create your own style from original XAML or try to override background in the Loaded event for example:

    private void ProgressBar_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    var p = (ProgressBar)sender;
    p.ApplyTemplate();

    ((Panel)p.Template.FindName("Animation", p)).Background = Brushes.Red;
}

    but it's unreliable
