For some retro application I'm currently planning, I'd need some Windows 3.11 style for WPF. Has anyone done some yet? If this is not the case, how can I make one? I never tried that. I, especially, need a Win3.1-styled menu, toolbar, and button widget.

TIA!

You can style all of these elements using WPF with the style attribute. Useful information for you can be found in this tutorial or this post on stackoverflow. Additionaly you can add a style to the resources of the Application to apply them to really all items of a particular class in your entire application.

In your App.xaml:

<Application.Resources>
    <Style TargetType="Button" BasedOn="{StaticResource CommonStyle}">
        <Setter Property="Background" Value="Gray" />
    </Style>
</Application.Resources>

I do not know any Windows 3.11 Style yet, but maybe you get along building your own one.
