Creating the style of a control

Styles provide you with a convenient way to group a set of properties and triggers within a single object and apply it to the elements. You can do this selectively to a set of controls, or you can apply it to all the controls automatically, based on the control type.

In this recipe, we'll begin with the default style of a button and set its various style properties to give it a new look. We will then apply it selectively to set the style of multiple button controls.
