    <p>How can I bind the default Window background color of the theme to a Window background?</p> <p>I've tried the following:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Window x:Class="Shell" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" Title="Shell" Height="300" Width="300" Background="{DynamicResource WindowBackgroundBrush}" &gt; </code></pre> <p>But the background color renders as black and that does not seem right when using the Luna theme. Using the Luna theme I would expect the beige/brownish color often found in Windows XP.</p> <p><strong>UPDATE:</strong> After reading your answers, playing with <a href="http://blog.wpfwonderland.com/2007/01/02/wpf-tools-stylesnooper/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">StyleSnooper</a> and thinking some more about this I've come to the following conclusion:</p> <p>The Window will use SystemColors.WindowBrush as its background color by default. This color is white in most themes i've tried and that is probably OK. I believe white is also the Window background color in WinForms. However, the default Form background color in WinForms is not Window background but Control. So, if I want that color I have use <code>SystemColors.ControlBrush</code> as pointed out by <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/users/24231/lucas">Lucas</a>. </p> <p>At one point I was trying to achieve the brownish/beige Control color of WinForms on Windows XP. This is probably not possible on Windows Vista since Control color on Vista is kind of gray. Running a WinForms application on Windows Vista will not render it as beige/brownish, but gray. In this case I guess we have to apply our own custom styles to achieve the "original" Windows XP look on Vista. </p> <p>Thanks everyone for helping me sort this out!</p>
