Question

I have some frameworkElements inside XAML, and I define some properties like background, and cursor.

In code behind, I change these properties, and when an event triggers, I want to reload these initial properties defined in XAML. Is this possible or I need to redifine manually in code behind?

Thanks.

A control defined in XAML is essentially defining an instance. Once you have the instance, the object is just like every other object you deal with. Having access to the instance defined in XAML within your code behind is akin to creating a new object in the code behind and then adjusting its properties at run time.

When you want the property value to change; you don’t revert your property changes, you simply change them to what you desire.
