Here are the reference numbers that demonstrate this.



I also checked out Kaxaml , which contains some code snippets called Simple Styles. These are templates for all controls that are not as complex as the default behavior, which can be a little esoteric at times.

It seems to me that you want to try StyleSnooper . It can load the assembly and show you the effective XAML that defines each control ControlTemplate

Both binary and source versions are available. This tool is really great in your WPF arsenal.
