Styling ListBoxItem's of nested ListBoxes [WPF]

Answer 1

Do you need both the "inner" and "outer" items to be selectable? I would probably stick with ItemsControl for the outer list and just let the inner items be selectable. Then you could style ListBoxItem without affecting the "outer" items.

Answer 2

I agree with Matt (looks like you can just stick an ItemsControl inside a ScrollViewer for the main list), but you can also reset the colors back to their defaults inside the scope for the child ListBoxes:

<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey}" Color="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrush}"/>
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.ControlBrushKey}" Color="{x:Static SystemColors.ControlBrush}"/>

Kent, We cannot reset the style using the above mentioned code. Any other option?
