WPF reference style in resource dictionary and use triggers

Question

I have a style defined in a resource dictionary that applies to all ComboBox controls. Within the ComboBox control, I reference the style like so:

Style="{DynamicResource MyComboBoxStyle}"

This works ok.

I want to be able to add some triggers to some of the ComboBox controls. What is a good way to use the style referenced as a dynamic resource yet still be able to add triggers to some of the ComboBox controls?

Answer 1

Create new styles for the ComboBox controls that you want to apply triggers to, and use the BasedOn property on the new style to set their base style.
