[Open Source] WPF Modern Flat Theme - Beta - SIM-1725686 - Jul 24, 2015

Hi, everyone. I was getting bored a few days ago, and decided to make this little project. Basically, it's a WPF theme that lets you create modern-looking programs with no hassle whatsoever. You can't resize the windows right now, but if enough people like it that I can further this project, that will be the first change I implement.

It's open source: https://github.com/UniversalFuture/wpf-modern-flat

So feel free to contribute if you want.

There are some cool things this theme includes that you might consider making use of:

Cool buttons, woohoo!

Colors from Flat UI

Flat textboxes and tabitems support LeftContent and RightContent, which allows you to easily add additional functionality to your controls without stressing over extra code

It's customizable, so you can easily change what you don't like

Buttons and textboxes have a Bootstrap-like type attribute, which enables them to be quickly and consistently colored

Here are some screenshots:

Usage (IMPORTANT):
When you want to use this theme, you should reference Global.xaml within your window, and bind your window's Style property to FlatWindowStyle. I know, it's a bit tedious to manually set the window's style, but whatever. We can fix that later if it's too hard. Your window should be a WpfModernFlat.Controls.FlatWindow, of course. If you use the FlatWindow without the style, you'll end up with a window with a black pit where there should be controls.

Anyways, feel free to use it in your projects, or to modify it. I would certainly appreciate any feedback, as I will probably use and expand it in the future, and I want it to become the best it possibly can be. Thanks in advance.

Thank you, and yeah, I honestly have no idea how to fix that. I'm thinking to add another Trigger to expand the color margin within the border to hide the clipping.
