How to set custom style to Checkbox for WPF MenuAdv Control?

This article explains how to customize the CheckBox container’s style within a WPF MenuAdv control by applying a custom style to the CheckBox. These simple steps will demonstrate how to customize the appearance of the CheckBox within the MenuItemAdv in MenuAdv control.

Step 1: In your XAML resource section, define a custom CheckBox style and assign it a unique key, such as “CustomCheckBoxStyle.”

Step 2: Apply the custom CheckBox style to the CheckBoxes within the MenuItemAdv sections. Use the CheckBoxStyle property and refer to the defined custom style key.

XAML
