如何找出Visual Studio主题颜色何时发生变化？

Question

I develop the Visual Studio package with a tool window. The UI of the tool window is based on WPF. In my user control I want to use current Visual Studio theme colors corresponding to the VS design.

Therefore my question is how I can find out that Visual Studio theme color has been changed?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

I've found another way to do it. I can use visual studio theme colors resources from xaml directly. For example:

Background="{DynamicResource {x:Static vsfx:VsBrushes.ToolWindowBackgroundKey}}"

where vsfx is

xmlns:vsfx="clr-namespace:Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell;assembly=Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.10.0"

This approach solved this problem!

Answer 2

如果要检测主题更改事件本身，可以使用VSColorTheme.ThemeChanged静态事件。
