Binding value of a setter property to a Code Behind Property Color

Question

I'm struggling to find a way to set a Setter.Value with my own property (SelectedRowBackColor). This line of XAML doesn't work:

<SolidColorBrush Color="{Binding XPath=SelectedRowBackColor}"></SolidColorBrush>

Can someone help me out? Thanks.

            </ContextMenu>
        </ListView.ContextMenu>
    </ListView>
</UserControl>

This is the property:

private System.Windows.Media.Color? m_SelectedRowBackColor = System.Windows.Media.Color.FromArgb(255, 0x0A, 0x24, 0x6A);    //Colore di selezione originale

[Category("Properties")]
[Description("Selected Row Background Color")]
public System.Windows.Media.Color? SelectedRowBackColor
{
    get
    {
        return m_SelectedRowBackColor;
    }
    set
    {
        m_SelectedRowBackColor = value;
    }
}

EDIT: I noticed this solution works but only on Windows 10, it fails to set the color on Windows 7:

<SolidColorBrush Color="{Binding SelectedRowBackColor, RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType=UserControl}}"></SolidColorBrush>

Answer 1

I understood Windows 7 and 10 use different methods, so I implemented both to achieve a similar result in both:

<ListView.Resources>
    <!-- Windows 7 -->
    <SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey}" Color="{Binding SelectedRowBackColor, RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType=UserControl}}" />
    <SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.ActiveBorderBrushKey}" Color="{Binding SelectedRowBackColor, RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType=UserControl}}" />
    <!-- Windows 10 -->
    <Style TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}">
        <Style.Triggers>
            <Trigger Property="IsSelected" Value="True">
                <Setter Property="Background">
                    <Setter.Value>
                        <SolidColorBrush Color="{Binding SelectedRowBackColor, RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType=UserControl}}"></SolidColorBrush>
                    </Setter.Value>
                </Setter>
                <Setter Property="BorderBrush">
                    <Setter.Value>
                        <SolidColorBrush Color="{Binding SelectedRowBackColor, RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType=UserControl}}"></SolidColorBrush>
                    </Setter.Value>
                </Setter>
            </Trigger>
        </Style.Triggers>
    </Style>
</ListView.Resources>
