I’ve created an user control element which has a button with an individual style.
Inside this style I have a rectangle called “Rectangle”.
Now i want to change the visibility of this rectangle from the code behind.
How can I do this?
Or in general: How can I change any of the properties of the resources from the code behind?

    Try this:

    var rect = (Rectangle)Button.Template.FindName("Rectangle", Button);
    rect.Visibility = System.Windows.Visibility.Visible;
