SemanticZoom styles and templates

[ This article is for Windows 8.x and Windows Phone 8.x developers writing Windows Runtime apps. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation ]

This topic describes the styles and templates for the SemanticZoom control. You can modify these resources and the default ControlTemplate to give the control a unique appearance.

Visual states

These are the VisualStates defined in the control's default style.

This table lists the visual states for the semantic zoom.

VisualState name VisualStateGroup name Description
ZoomInView SemanticZoomStates The zoomed in view is shown.
ZoomOutView SemanticZoomStates The zoomed out view is shown.
ZoomOutButtonVisible ZoomOutButtonStates The zoom out button is shown.
ZoomOutButtonHidden ZoomOutButtonStates The zoom out button is not shown.

 

This table lists the visual states for the zoom out button.

VisualState name VisualStateGroup name Description
Normal CommonStates The default state.
PointerOver CommonStates The pointer is positioned over the control.
Pressed CommonStates The control is pressed.

 

Theme resources

These resources are used in the control's default style.

Dark theme brushes
