    copied!<p>I am making a WPF-application.I have a datagrid with a column header that contains a checkbox. I use this checkbox for check/uncheck-all functionality. When I run the application in Win7 it looks normal but on XP the the checkbox is weirdly compressed and does not check when clicked on. Any feedback would be greatly appriciated.</p> <p>The affected code:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Grid&gt; &lt;DataGrid RowDetailsVisibilityMode="VisibleWhenSelected" SelectionMode="Extended" SelectionUnit="Cell" AutoGenerateColumns="False" IsReadOnly="False" CanUserSortColumns="False" CanUserResizeRows="False" CanUserAddRows="False" CanUserDeleteRows="False" Height="Auto" Margin="10,10,10,10" Name="dgSurveyGroups" VerticalAlignment="Top" RowHeight="26" AlternatingRowBackground="Gainsboro" RowHeaderWidth="0" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Width="346"&gt; &lt;DataGrid.Columns&gt; &lt;DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding description, Mode=OneWay}" Header="Surveygroup" Width="*"/&gt; &lt;DataGridCheckBoxColumn Binding="{Binding Active}" Header="" Width="24"&gt; &lt;DataGridCheckBoxColumn.HeaderTemplate&gt; &lt;DataTemplate&gt; &lt;CheckBox Name="SuperCheckBox"/&gt; &lt;/DataTemplate&gt; &lt;/DataGridCheckBoxColumn.HeaderTemplate&gt; &lt;/DataGridCheckBoxColumn&gt; &lt;DataGridTemplateColumn Header="Start Date" Width="110"&gt; &lt;DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate&gt; &lt;DataTemplate&gt; &lt;TextBlock Text="{Binding startDate, StringFormat=d}"/&gt; &lt;/DataTemplate&gt; &lt;/DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate&gt; &lt;DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate&gt; &lt;DataTemplate&gt; &lt;DatePicker SelectedDate="{Binding startDate}"/&gt; &lt;/DataTemplate&gt; &lt;/DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate&gt; &lt;/DataGridTemplateColumn&gt; &lt;DataGridTemplateColumn Header="End Date" Width="110"&gt; &lt;DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate&gt; &lt;DataTemplate&gt; &lt;TextBlock Text="{Binding endDate, StringFormat=d}"/&gt; &lt;/DataTemplate&gt; &lt;/DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate&gt; &lt;DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate&gt; &lt;DataTemplate&gt; &lt;DatePicker SelectedDate="{Binding endDate}"/&gt; &lt;/DataTemplate&gt; &lt;/DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate&gt; &lt;/DataGridTemplateColumn&gt; &lt;/DataGrid.Columns&gt; &lt;/DataGrid&gt; &lt;/Grid&gt; </code></pre> <p>Win7:<br /><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/XaKb4.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>WinXP:<br /><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/wEfXM.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
