Property Value
The brush used to highlight the selected text. The default is a null brush from a pure code perspective, but the system uses base text styles to supply a runtime value for apps (unless you specifically override that style). The practical default is a brush using the theme resource TextSelectionHighlightThemeColor.
Remarks
Important
If using a keyboard for text selection within a TextBlock, the user must first activate Caret Browsing (with the app in the foreground, press F7).
