Notes

We're nearly ready to release version 1.0 of MahApps.Metro, so this may be the last unstable release.

There are no known breaking changes in this release, but we had to deprecate some things, particularly around the titlebar overlay behavior.

Please note that everything that is know deprecated will be removed in the 1.0 release, so you should prepare your applications soon.

Since we're following semantic versioning, we promise to not break anything from version 1.0 to 2.0.

Features

MetroWindow now indicates whether it's active or not

The MetroWindow now has the NonActiveWindowTitleBrush property that sets the window brush for an inactive window.

See PR #1320

Fine grained control over the titlebar element overlay behavior

The overlay behavior of the elements of the window titlebar can now be controlled individually.

There are is now an enum with four values:

  • Never
  • OverlayFlyout
  • OverlayHiddenTitleBar
  • Always

For more info, see PR #1427.

Underlined TabControl

Added the attached property ControlsHelper.IsUnderlined="True" for the TabControl control that adds an underline.

See PR #1425 for reference.

Custom ScrollBar width and height

The default ScrollBar width and height can now be set manually.

See PR #1387for more infos.

Direct FlatButton style

Previously you had to include the FlatButton resource dictionary to add a FlatButton. Now you can just set it at style of a button.

MetroWindow icon EdgeMode

It is now possible to set the EdgeMode of the window icon.
