this seems work quite nicely watermark textbox in wpf, how can change watermark text be?

above hard coded text = 'enter text here'.

if use above this,

<textbox style="{staticresource watermarktextboxstyle}"></textbox> 

i cannot set watermark text is.

ideas?

use attached dependency property:

public static class watermark {     public static readonly dependencyproperty textproperty =         dependencyproperty.registerattached( "text",                                              typeof(boolean),                                              typeof(watermark),                                              new frameworkpropertymetadata() );      public static void settext( uielement element, boolean value )     {         element.setvalue( textproperty, value );     }      public static boolean gettext( uielement element )     {         return (boolean)element.getvalue( textproperty );     } } 

then control you'd like:

<textbox style="{staticresource watermarktextboxstyle}" watermark.text="search" /> 

your style need bind dp:

<textblock x:name="textblock" opacity="0.345"            text="{binding relativesource={relativesource templatedparent}, path=(local:watermark.text)}"            textwrapping="wrap" visibility="hidden" />
