How to change the foreground and background of the selected TabItem's header?
In UWP Tab Control, the Foreground and Background of the selected TabItem’s header can be changed by setting the selectionstyle property as “HeaderText” or “CompleteHeader”. The same has been explained below.
<Grid.Resources>
<Style TargetType="navigation:SfTabItem" x:Key="TabItemStyle">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="PaleGreen"/>
<Setter Property="SelectedForeground" Value="Brown" />
</Style>
</Grid.Resources>
<navigation:SfTabControl x:Name="tabControl" SelectionStyle="CompleteHeader"
ItemContainerStyle="{StaticResource TabItemStyle}"
ItemsSource="{Binding tabctrl}" HorizontalAlignment="Center"
VerticalAlignment="Center">
<navigation:SfTabControl.HeaderTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding TitleName}"/>
</DataTemplate>
</navigation:SfTabControl.HeaderTemplate>
<navigation:SfTabControl.ContentTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding content}"/>
</DataTemplate>
</navigation:SfTabControl.ContentTemplate>
</navigation:SfTabControl>
public sealed partial class MainPage : Page
{
public MainPage()
{
this.InitializeComponent();
tabctrl = new List<Tabcontrol>();
tabctrl.Add(new Tabcontrol { TitleName = "Item1", content = "content1" });
tabctrl.Add(new Tabcontrol { TitleName = "Item2", content = "content2" });
tabctrl.Add(new Tabcontrol { TitleName = "Item3", content = "content3" });
tabctrl.Add(new Tabcontrol { TitleName = "Item4", content = "content4" });
tabctrl.Add(new Tabcontrol { TitleName = "Item5", content = "content5" });
DataContext = this;
}
private List<Tabcontrol> tab;
public List<Tabcontrol> tabctrl
{
get
{
return tab;
}
set
{
tab = value;
}
}
}
public class Tabcontrol
{
public string TitleName
{
get;
set;
}
public string content
{

}
}
