    <p>This is because such controls as <code>Label</code> and <code>CheckBox</code> override the <code>Foreground</code> property in their styles. </p> <p>Below is an example a typical logical tree of elements that shows how the value specified on the <code>Window</code> level travels down the tree:</p> <pre><code>Window (Red [Local]) -&gt; Grid (Red [Inherited]) -&gt; ListBox (Red [Inherited]) -&gt; ListBoxItem (Red [Inherited]) -&gt; StackPanel (Red [Inherited]) -&gt; Label (Black [Style]) -&gt; TextBlock (Black [Inherited]) -&gt; TextBlock (Red [Inherited]) </code></pre> <p><em>In square brackets the source of the value is shown.</em></p> <p>As you can see the inheritance breaks on the <code>Label</code> itself because it has the <code>Foreground</code> property set in its default style:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Style x:Key="{x:Type Label}" TargetType="{x:Type Label}"&gt; &lt;Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.ControlTextBrushKey}}"/&gt; ... &lt;/Style&gt; </code></pre> <p>As a workaround for this we can use the following trick. Define the default style for such controls (as <code>Label</code>) in the application (in App.xaml or in the <code>Window</code> inself). And in that default style override the <code>Foreground</code> property to set a relative source binding to the nearest ancestor of the control that still has the desired value: </p> <pre><code>&lt;Style TargetType="{x:Type Label}"&gt; &lt;Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type FrameworkElement}}, Path=(TextElement.Foreground)}"/&gt; &lt;/Style&gt; &lt;Style TargetType="{x:Type CheckBox}"&gt; &lt;Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type FrameworkElement}}, Path=(TextElement.Foreground)}"/&gt; &lt;/Style&gt; </code></pre> <p>After that our tree will look like this:</p> <pre><code>Window (Red [Local]) -&gt; Grid (Red [Inherited]) -&gt; ListBox (Red [Inherited]) -&gt; ListBoxItem (Red [Inherited]) -&gt; StackPanel (Red [Inherited]) -&gt; Label (Red [Binding to StackPanel.(TextElement.Foreground)]) -&gt; TextBlock (Red [Inherited]) -&gt; TextBlock (Red [Inherited]) </code></pre> <p>As you can see, our binding restores the inheritance.</p> <p>Such styles need to be defined for each element that overrides the <code>Foreground</code> property in its style. As @Duane suggested, to not duplicate the binding in each style the <code>BasedOn</code> capability can be used:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Style x:Key="ForegroundInheritanceFixStyle" TargetType="Control"&gt; &lt;Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type FrameworkElement}}, Path=(TextElement.Foreground)}"/&gt; &lt;/Style&gt; &lt;Style TargetType="{x:Type Label}" BasedOn="{StaticResource ForegroundInheritanceFixStyle}"&gt; &lt;/Style&gt; &lt;Style TargetType="{x:Type CheckBox}" BasedOn="{StaticResource ForegroundInheritanceFixStyle}"&gt; &lt;/Style&gt; </code></pre> <p>Hope this helps.</p>

    1. COThis will work nice enough when you have only one parent in the Visual Tree, but typically the Labels and Checkboxes will be embedded some levels deeper.

    2. CO@Dabblernl - No, this will work always. The only thing it does is reverts back inheritance broken by the the style setter on the default style of the elements. For example, if you have a tree like this: Window -> Grid -> ListBox -> ListBoxItem -> StackPanel -> Label. If you set the `Foreground` property on the `Window` the value will be inherited by the the `Label` like this: Window (Red) -> Grid (Red [inherited]) -> ListBox (Red [inherited]) -> ListBoxItem (Red [inherited]) -> StackPanel (Red [inherited]) -> Label (Red [Binding to StackPanel.(TextElement.Foreground)]).

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
