wpf - How do I override the default Windows Phone theme for my app? -

lets that, regardless of color settings user has, want app have white background blue foreground elements, skype app does.

how go that? i've found how can make elements use system brushes, can't figure out how change default brushes. can't find background color specified @ all.

you can use library created jeff called phonethememanager. can find article same here: phonethememanager. download nuget , modify app.xaml.cs file light (white background) theme activated. code simple:

thememanager.tolighttheme(); 

once apply theme, pages have white background. blue foreground elements, you'll need create own styles , apply them elements. i'll prefer blend create design template on here you'll wysiwyg interface. using system brushes not change according accent color. creating own styles give more freedom , control.

i hope helps.
