Question

I want to make a bigger checkbox in WPF.

I’ve discovered that I need to do a control template, one example of which is found here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms752319.aspx

If I use that code the checkbox doesn’t resemble the default look. All I want to do is change the Border Width & Height attributes.

I need a control template that looks exactly like the default, from there I will just change the Width and Height. Does anyone know where I can find one? Or a better approach?

Answer 1

How about this?

<CheckBox>
    <CheckBox.LayoutTransform>
        <ScaleTransform ScaleX="2" ScaleY="2" />
    </CheckBox.LayoutTransform>
</CheckBox>

You can use double values for ScaleX and ScaleY if the integer values are not exactly what you want.
